UFO Crash in Southaven Park, Long Island New York 1992 ~ Videos

Southhaven Park

A local investigative group that has been researching accounts of
unidentified objects on Long Island for the past five years released a
report (with photos and a video tape) yesterday that claims an alien
space craft crashed into a remote area of Southaven Park in Shirley just
before Thanksgiving last year. The incident happened just after 7:00
P.M. on the night of November 24, according to John Ford, chairman of
the Long Island U.F.O. Network, who said that it has taken his group six
months to do a thorough investigation.

It was just recently, though, that his group was able to acquire the
video and the photos. “We knew that something crashed into the park that
night and we have, bit by bit,” said Ford, “been able to finally put
the picture together.” Several motorists who were traveling along
Sunrise Highway that night, according to Ford, contacted his
organization and described what they thought was a plane that was going
down into the park. And many local residents whose homes border
Southaven report that they heard loud rumbling sounds and saw strange
lights.
“Eyewitness accounts
have confirmed that a fire was reported immediately after,” noted Ford.
“In addition, the roads around the park were blocked off to travel by
county and park police. The next day, and for a few days after, the park
was closed to the public.”

One local resident who lives near the park said that for a five to six
day period after the incident, his house experienced numerous power
surges and the phone would ring strangely without anyone on the other
end.
“I ride horses in the
park so I’m pretty familiar with the activities there,” said the 45-
year-old man who requested anonymity because of the sensitive nature of
his job (“they would fire me if they thought I believed in flying
saucers”).
“For the next few days there were a lot of military helicopters going over the park — and I couldn’t get in.”

Records show that Southaven Park was closed between November 25 and 28.
According to park officials, the park was closed to the general public
that week because it was reserved for duck hunting. Although some of
the area fire departments were initially called, they were turned back
and the fire was handled by the federally controlled Brookhaven National
Laboratory Fire Department, said Ford. Ford’s group finally gained
admittance into the park a week later.

“We found an area that was burned out and some trees were bent over,”
Ford recalled. “A section looked like it had been plowed over by
machinery.” But two things were of particular interest to Ford. “We were
getting a higher than normal radiation reading in the area, higher than
regular background radiation, and the fence line in that area,” said
Ford, “had no magnetic reading.”

Ford explained that metal fences maintain a magnetic charge from the Earth.
“Something had stripped away the magnetic charge of the fence.”
Last week Ford received what he had been waiting and hoping for: a video film of the crash.
“I can’t say where I got it from because these people who supplied the tape are afraid that the government will go after them.

” Because of the poor quality of the tape, Ford has been working with
video specialists to try and enhance the quality of the picture and to
produce stills. The video, a copy of which was given to South Shore
Press, shows people examining a bright reddish, metallic-type object
about four-square feet that appears to be emitting a white, cloudy gas,
and a hissing sound can be heard — a sight and sound that resembles
dry ice that has been exposed to warmer temperatures.
The
next shot shows what appears to be a person trying to lift up a body
near a tree, but the poor quality of the film makes positive
identification impossible. In a final scene, three uniformed men
(wearing dark jackets and rounded caps similar to federal swat teams)
are seen placing a large shiny spread (similar to mylar) over something
on the ground. Ford makes no apologies for the poor quality of the
video:

“Things are happening fast and the guy who took the shots doesn’t want
to be too obvious.” And he confesses that it is hard to get people to
come forward and admit what they’ve seen.

“One of the major problems in researching UFOs is that people are
afraid of sounding like lunatics when describing strange, unexplained
events.”
But an even greater fear, notes Ford, is the government.
“You get involved with things that the government doesn’t want people to know and they can make life pretty tough for you.”

What are Ford’s conclusions about the Southaven incident? “We are still
very actively investigating this event. We believe that an
extraterrestrial craft, with aliens, crashed that night in the park —
and we are out to prove it.”

The Long Island U.F.O. Network has a 24-hour hotline number (286-3212)
to which Ford encourages people to call if they have any information on
the (Southaven) incident or any other (unexplainable) phenomenon.

Skeptics UFO Newsletter -7- Jan. 1998

UFO Group Leader, Accused Of Plan To Kill Local Government Officials,
Sent To Mental Institution After His Two Partners Plead Guilty.

John Ford, the 49-year-old founder of the Long Island (N.Y.) UFO Network
(LIUFON), who in mid-1996 was charged with plotting to kill several
local government officials because he believed they were covering up
three crashed-saucer incidents on Long Island, has been found to be
“delusional” and has been sent to a New York state psychiatric center.
If/when Ford is judged competent to stand trial, he faces the prospect
of a 25-75 year jail term.

Two of Ford’s partners in the plot to poison Suffolk county officials by
inserting radium into their food and toothpaste earlier pleaded guilty
to participating in the plan. Joseph Mazzuchelli was sentenced to 3-9
years.
Edward Zabo, a Defense
Dept. employee who obtained the radium, is slated to be sentenced in
early March [SUN #40/July 1996]. The evidence included a tape recording
of Ford and associates discussing their plan which was covertly recorded
by a person who had been asked to participate but who instead gave the
tape to law enforcement officials.

Ford claimed that in 1989, the U.S. had forced down and recovered an ET
craft near Moriches Bay, L.I., that in 1992 an alien craft had crashed
in Southaven Park, and that a third had crashed later near the Pine
Barrens area. He publicly accused local government officials of
collaborating with the federal government to cover up the incidents.

In an article in the November 1996 issue of the MUFON UFO Journal, Ms.
Elaine Douglas charged that Ford was the “first UFO investigator to be
seriously persecuted by the authorities.” (Douglas is MUFON’s state
director for the District of Columbia and co-director of “Operation
Right To Know.” The latter, which periodically stages public
demonstrations, describes itself as “the only UFO organization with
guts.”
It has scheduled a
march on the White House to “End UFO Secrecy” for July 5, 1999.) In her
MUFON article, Douglas announced the formation of the John Ford Defense
Committee and sought contributions. SUN eagerly awaits the reactions of
Douglas and MUFON to recent events.

Some of Ford’s own comments, contained in a 102-page handwritten
“Statement to the Media,” were quoted in a lengthy feature article
recently published in the Jan. 11 issue of The Washington Post. Ford
claims he had been a CIA agent for the last 30 years, but was not paid
so there would be no record of his employment in the agency’s files.
Further, that Mazzuchelli was an officer of Israel’s Mossad intelligence
agency.
Another Ford claim
is that the AIDS and Ebola viruses were brought by ETs to kill off
peoples of sub-Sahara Africa. In a letter to LIUFON vice president Steve
Iavarone, Ford predicted that after a few months at the Mid-Hudson
Psychiatric Center he would return and that all charges against him
would be dropped. Ford concluded his letter with UFOlogy’s popular
slogan: “THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE…”

In June 1996 Ford was arrested on charges of conspiracy to murder local
Republican officials John Powell, Fred Towle and Anthony Gazzola by
doctoring their toothpaste and their cars with radium. Ford was right
about his phone being tapped – the main evidence against him was a taped
phone call to a police informant.

People who have heard the recording say that Ford and the informant
discuss the radium poisoning scheme and then laugh heartily as if it
were a joke. Arrested with Ford was Joseph Mazzachelli, and the next day
a third suspect, Edward Zabo, was arrested in Medford, New York. Zabo
was an electrical inspector at military contractor Northrop Grumman.

The three men were all members of the Long Island UFO Network. The
group has accused the government of covering up sightings of
extraterrestrials. Zabo, a former Defense Department employee, had
provided the radium, and Ford was supposed to plant it.

The intended victims of the plot could not say why the three wanted to
kill them. Mazzachelli was a convicted burglar, and Zabo had been
arrested twice for driving while intoxicated and may have had some tax
troubles. In the raid on Ford’s home in Bellport, police seized dozens
of weapons and thousands of rounds of ammunition. Friends said Ford was a
gun collector. Police also found what they and the media described as
“militia” literature. However, actual militia ties are dubious.

In 1997, a Suffolk County Court judge ordered that Ford be sent to an
upstate New York mental hospital, where he remains today. Three
psychiatrists and a psychologist, two hired by District Attorney James
M. Catterson Jr.’s office, examined Ford and all four concluded that he
was not competent to stand trial.

Robert H. Berger, director of Forensic Psychiatry at Bellevue Hospital
Center, said that while Ford seemed to understand his legal predicament,
he thought the criminal case against him was in reality an intelligence
operation being run by the CIA together with the Israeli intelligence
agency Mossad.

Responding to an article about himself in Saucer Smear, Ford wrote:

My case is a frame-up and a smear tactic to destroy my UFO organization and to neutralize my effectiveness.

The main reason I’m sitting here is due to the fact that I had
information indicating that the 1995 East End Forest Fires had been
deliberately set to cover up the crash of a large disc near Suffolk
Community College, south of Riverhead (Long Island).
The
County was asked to set fires near the crash site, to keep people out
of the area; but dirty politics being the case, the Republican
leadership, in an effort to gain control of Pine Barrens properties, set
Forest Fires South of Sunrise Highway in populated areas near the
coveted land.
I was able to
document some of this. While doing so, I was targeted for elimination by
the politicians. I had several attempts on my life fail, due to the
intervention of Israeli intelligence, which protected me for some 3 1/2
months.

Yes, it’s true what I said. There is a heavy intelligence presence
involved in my case. The man to talk to about it all is Preston Nichols.
… He can give you a briefing on the various aspects of the case …

Preston Nichols, also a LIUFON member, is the same Preston Nichols of Montauk Project fame.

What happened here? Was Ford getting too close to something he shouldn’t have, or had he been delusional for years?
