FBI Leads Review of Scientist Deaths and Disappearances Linked to U.S. Strategic Programs

Authorities say they have not verified a coordinated campaign.

Overview

  • The FBI is searching for links across the cases and is working with the Energy and Defense departments.
  • The House Oversight Committee has asked NASA and the Pentagon for records as part of its inquiry.
  • NASA says nothing tied to the agency points to a national security threat.
  • News reports count about a dozen deaths or disappearances since 2022 among people connected to labs like Los Alamos and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
  • Two recent deaths have named suspects in custody, and experts warn that people often see patterns in unrelated events, a bias known as apophenia.
