True Crime

114 years ago the Moore family came home from church in Villisca, Iowa and went to bed for the last time. By the time the sun came up on June 10th, 1912, eight people were dead. Joe and Sarah Moore. Their four children: Herman, 11; Katherine, 10; Arthur, 7; and Paul, 5. And two little girls who had been invited for a sleepover. Lena Stillinger, 11, and her younger sister Ina May, 8. All of them killed with an axe in the dark. All of them still in their beds.

The remains of Melissa Casias, LANL employee and subject of our Limitations on Nature series, were discovered in Carson National Forest almost a year after she vanished. Her family says the area had already been searched. No cause of death has been determined.

Most people know the broad outline. Young woman. Washington D.C. intern. Affair with a Congressman. Disappeared in May 2001. Body found a year later in Rock Creek Park. A man convicted. The conviction overturned. The case cold. What most people do not know is what her parents said this week. On the 25th anniversary of her disappearance. On NewsNation. About UAPs. About the House Intelligence Committee. About whether their daughter was killed because of what she had learned.

The science is documented. The weapon is confirmed in US government possession. The injury profiles match across independent cases spanning seventy years. This is what the evidence actually shows.

When a researcher who knows something dangerous turns up dead, the official explanation often arrives quickly and sounds like medicine. An acute manic episode. A sudden mental health crisis. A breakdown with no prior warning. It closes the file. It produces no suspect, no motive, no crime scene, and no further inquiry.

She was a 33-year-old tech CEO with no mental health history. She called her parents from a California highway speaking in disconnected, paranoid language. Five days later her body was found in the back seat of her rental car half a mile from where she was last seen. The cause of death was officially listed as an acute manic episode. Nobody who knew her believes that is the whole story.

In every news story written about Ingrid Coleen Lane, she is described the same way. Thirty-seven years old. Married. Bipolar. Buddhist. Musician. Struggling with her mental health. A woman who went for a hike in the Jemez Mountains outside Albuquerque on October 15th, 2023, and did not come back. That description is not wrong. But it is so incomplete that it functionally buried who Ingrid Lane really was. And when you learn who she really was, this story changes completel

More than a dozen researchers tied to NASA, nuclear propulsion, and classified defense programs are dead or missing. The FBI is investigating. Congress has used the word sinister. And one city appears again and again in the timeline.

A Fear & Wine Research Division Investigation There's a particular kind of dread that comes not from monsters, but from absence. Not what's in the dark — but what just left it. On February 27, 2026, at 10:38 in the morning, an anonymous X account called @TMBSPACESHIPS made its final post. Twenty-two minutes later, a retired two-star Air Force general named William Neil McCasland left his home in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and walked out into a cold February morning without his

We host a podcast called Fear & Wine. We do horror culture and wine pairings. That is our lane. Except that about six weeks ago, I fell into a rabbit hole about a missing Air Force general and an anonymous X account posting antigravity physics, and I have not been the same since. We released a 3-part investigative series called Limitations on Nature covering General William Neil McCasland — MIT PhD, former Commander of the Air Force Research Laboratory, the man who ran Americ

What Is @TMBSPACESHIPS? The Cryptic X Account Tied to UAP Research If you've spent any time in UAP research circles online, you may have encountered the account. Strange posts. Fragmented syntax. Content that reads like it's written for an audience that already knows what it's referencing. The X account @TMBSPACESHIPS has been a subject of serious scrutiny among UAP investigators — not because of sensationalism, but because when you actually analyze what it posts, patterns em

In the rapidly shifting landscape of UAP disclosure, certain names appear repeatedly — not in sensational headlines, but in the careful, sourced reporting of journalists and researchers who have spent years building this case. William Neil McCasland is one of those names. Who Is William Neil McCasland? William Neil McCasland is a retired United States Air Force Major General. His military career spanned decades and placed him in leadership roles that intersected directly with
