Last month, Air Force veteran and former member of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency David Grusch renewed his allegations in front of the House Oversight Committee, accusing the US government of secretly hiding evidence of extraterrestrial life and working to reverse-engineer the otherworldly relics.
We remain deeply skeptical of his far-fetched claims — at least pending extraordinary evidence — and now, new details about Grusch's personal life have surfaced that further shroud his allegations in doubt.
As The Intercept's Ken Klippenstein reports, the former intelligence officer-turned-whistleblower has had a turbulent past, suffering from PTSD and severe depression.
According to records obtained by Klippenstein, Grusch appears to have been committed to an inpatient psychiatric program after making a suicidal statement to his wife.
The eyebrow-raising report sheds light on a far-too-common plight of veterans. Whether his personal issues are directly relevant to his claims that the US government is hiding aliens will likely remain a subject of debate — but they certainly don't instill confidence. And the ensuing chaos following The Intercept's report doesn't help either.
Grusch, for his part, maintains that he has become the victim of an even greater conspiracy.
