Ron Rummel
Another recent disturbing case is the death of Ron Rummel ex-United States Air Force intelligence agent and publisher of The Alien Digest. On August 6, 1993. Rummel allegedly shot himself in the mouth with a pistol.
Friends
say, however, that no blood was found on the pistol barrel and the
handle of the weapon was free of fingerprints.
Also, according to
information now circulating, the suicide note left by the deceased was
written by a left-handed person. Rummel was right-handed. Perspiration on the body smelled like sodium pentothal.
The
Alien Digest ran to seven limited issues all now almost impossible to
acquire. One thing is certain. Ron Rummel's magazine was touching on
sensitive issues such as the predator/prey aspect of the alien/human
relationship and the use of humans as food and recyclable body parts.
Did
Rummel cross a forbidden line? It would seem so. But which line and
where? Interestingly enough, one of Rummel's friends was Phil Schneider,
and the two had been collaborating.
