SUBJECT: INFO ON BENNEWITZ AND OTHERS FILE: UFO1813
FROM: Allen Benz
We have gathered some information regarding the
individuals mentioned in the letter of December 18, 1989
from ***************************. Throughout this report we
will refer to two different individuals as SOURCE 1 and
SOURCE 2. These individuals are in a position to give as
accurate information as is currently possible. They have not
given us permission to use their names; therefore, we are
referring to them by the above mentioned codes.
PAUL BENNEWITZ - Source 1 states that Bennewitz is 62
years old. In October, 1989, Source
accompanied by another person found Bennewitz' residence.
From the tone of the conversation with Source, I got the
impression that Bennewitz lived on or near a country club in
the Albuquerque area. They knocked on the door several
times, but were not allowed to enter. Source indicated that
Bennewitz did come to the window. Source and companion tried
to communicate with Bennewitz through the glass window.
Source indicated that Bennewitz looked poorly. Source is not
medically trained, but rendered the opinion that Bennewitz
appeared to be very dysfunctional. He seemed to be lucid one
moment and out of it the next. Source and companion stated
that there was another person in the house with Bennewitz at
the time of their encounter with him. They did not indicate
any other information about this individual. Source
indicated that after they left the premises a person ( no
other information available ) came out and took down their
license plate number.
3. ARNOLD ARIAS - There is no information available at this
time regarding this individual.
4. GABE VALDEZ - According to the information we have Source
1 has talked to Valdez on several
occasions. Source indicated that Valdez says he has
validated approximately 70-80% of Bennewitz' material.
Source says that Valdez is a family oriented individual. He
is married and his wife thinks that the Dulce UFOs are
demonic rather than extraterrestrial. Source 1 says that
Valdez is rather reticent about talking about UFOs at this
time. Information gained from Source 2 may help explain this
reticence. According to Source 2, Valdez was transferred
from Dulce to Albuquerque and was told by the Governor of
New Mexico, through the Superintendent of the New Mexico
Highway Patrol, that if he (Valdez) wanted to remain with
the Highway Patrol he needed to keep his mouth shut about
the UFO subject.
