Biography

One of the most prolific and rigorous British field investigators. She documented the Pennine wave and the PC Alan Godfrey (Todmorden) case, and co-wrote the first extensive investigation of the Rendlesham Forest incident. She coined the 'Oz Factor' to describe the altered state of awareness of witnesses in close encounters. Her method —open but critical, separating the waking sighting from material recovered under hypnosis— is a reference for the prudent handling of testimony.

Todmorden · PC Alan Godfrey· 1980

On November 28, 1980, around 5 a.m., police constable Alan Godfrey was patrolling Todmorden (West Yorkshire) searching for stray cows when he reported a large object, diamond-shaped with a rotating base, hovering over the road, which left the asphalt dry and swirled despite the rain. Godfrey, an on-duty officer, made a sketch and filed an official report; he also described a memory gap. A later hypnotic regression —of low reliability— recovered an abduction narrative. The case became linked in popular culture to the unexplained death of miner Zygmunt Adamski, found months earlier in the same area.

Rendlesham Forest· 1980

Between 26 and 28 December 1980, USAF personnel at the Bentwaters and Woodbridge bases reported lights and a triangular object with engraved markings in Rendlesham Forest, next to a nuclear-weapons store. Deputy commander Charles Halt recorded the second night live and signed an official memo; ground marks and elevated radiation remained.
