12 U.S. Scientists Have Gone Missing or Died. What's Going On?

About this video

In December 2010, the body of high-level Pentagon consultant John P. Wheeler III was discovered in a Delaware landfill.
No suspects and no clear motive. Just another tragic death, at least officially.

But Wheeler wasn’t the only defense insider to die under bizarre circumstances.
Across the U.S. and UK, scientists, engineers, aerospace researchers, and military contractors connected to advanced defense projects have turned up dead, disappeared, or died in ways that left investigators with more questions than answers.
Some were tied to cyberwarfare, others worked around missile systems, nuclear research, propulsion technology, or classified aerospace programs.

And the deeper you look, the stranger the pattern becomes.

From the infamous Marconi scientist deaths of the 1980s, to clusters of missing researchers near Los Alamos, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and major U.S. defense corridors, this video explores one disturbing question: Are these just tragic coincidences, or is something else happening behind the scenes?
Featuring the mysterious death of John P. Wheeler III, anti-gravity researcher Amy Eskridge, the Marconi deaths, and multiple scientists who vanished or died under unsettling circumstances, this is the dark story of defense research, paranoia, classified technology, and the growing mystery surrounding scientists who never made it home.

Could all these deaths really be unrelated, or are some secrets worth killing for?
