After all, if there is an intelligent perpetrator behind at least some of these cases, they can be smart enough not to kidnap and kill too many people. But if they’re after exceptional (and therefore potentially valuable) targets, they can’t hide that, or even necessarily be able to do without specific targets, however unlikely those target people are to get lost or succumb to the elements.

When you have such data, a lot of it, about a state of an object, and it doesn’t make any sense how it got there from its last known state, what you’ve got is a proper anomaly. If it keeps happening again and again, what you’ve got is a systemic anomaly, an anomaly on which you will keep getting more data, an anomaly that you can try to predict. This one is of course extremely tragic, but that only gives you literally all of the reasons why everyone should study this.The religion and military connection may also be connected to a specific cultural grudge, but what they imply to me is that maybe any targeting would be more of an issue of neurology rather than genetics. Especially since weird perception and memory issues are common among the Missing 411 cases. If there is someone out there with some kind of tech doing this, the tech clearly should involve remote brain or full-body scan capability (to ascertain hidden health issues or intelligence), perception altering, and memory editing. And even if the issue was some natural phenomenon, state of mind or mentality can affect awareness and behavioral responses. According to Paulides, every person should be found, especially if they are a small child or if they’re mentally or physically disabled and therefore presumably unable to travel long distances. Paulides also keeps mentioning that he doesn’t question the thoroughness of the searches or the dedication and skill of the searchers, or effectiveness of canines or helicopters with FLIR. Dave may not be the best scientist or statistician, he may have lied or cheated in his life at least once or twice, and he was trying to find evidence for the existence of Bigfoot (plural) before he was approached to look into missing people in national parks. Does any of that mean that you should dismiss the evidence that he’s bringing forward? No, the evidence is the only thing that matters. He’s not putting forward his theories in the books, only data. Louis Le Prince disappeared in 1890 while working on a new type of film camera. His body was never found, and the camera was never seen again.

The first books containing the mention of an idea or theory are always valuable. Conspiracy theory books like the Missing 411 books often get many spinoffs once they become popular.These spinoffs often dilute the information from the original books with unverified claims and contradictory theories.
