Online investigators believe they have identified a social media account linked to missing retired Air Force general William Neil McCasland, which alleges that another general was murdered for his involvement with nuclear material.
McCasland, 68, disappeared from his home in Albuquerque, New Mexico on February 27, the same day the anonymous individual behind the X account, focused on spacecraft and advanced science, made their final post.
The missing general, who has been gone for two weeks, is known for his role as a "gatekeeper" on the UFO topic within the U.S. Air Force, according to officials and sources.
The @tmbspaceships account claims to belong to a retired 38-year active duty member of the United States Air Force with a PhD in engineering. The individual lists the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT), the Air Education Training Command (AETC), and Air Force Material Command (AETC) as their former workplaces.
Both AFIT and AFMC are situated at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, which McCasland managed from 2011 to 2013. He completed his studies at the Air War College, a subdivision of the AETC, during his 34-year career. McCasland obtained a PhD in Astronautical Engineering from MIT in 1988.
The account made a shocking claim before McCasland's disappearance, suggesting that Maj. Gen. John Rossi, who reportedly died by suicide in 2016, was actually murdered for refusing to hand over nuclear material to private contractors.
Rossi, a 55-year-old two-star general, took his own life just before being promoted to a third star and assuming command at US Army Space and Missile Defense Command, as reported by Army Times.
The account disputed the suicide ruling, stating, “Gen. Rossi was a good friend and it is my opinion he did not commit suicide.” It alleged that Rossi was killed due to his refusal to transfer nuclear weapons to private entities following an attempted nuclear weapons theft at Ft. Sill.
McCasland, an enthusiastic hiker, was last seen on February 27, with authorities revealing that a .38 pistol was missing from his Albuquerque residence.
During his tenure at Wright Patterson Air Force Base, as vice commander of the Space and Missile Systems Center, and as director of Space Acquisition at the Pentagon, McCasland was privy to highly classified U.S. technology, according to sources.
The ongoing search for McCasland has entered its second week, with investigators providing an updated timeline of his disappearance.
His wife Susan last saw him at 11:10 a.m. local time before finding their home empty upon her return at 12:04 p.m. Investigators noted that McCasland's hiking boots, wallet, and .38 caliber revolver with a leather holster were missing.
Susan McCasland, also a retired government physicist and former Air Force second lieutenant, suggested in a Facebook post a week after his disappearance that he could have been abducted by a UFO mothership, although no such sightings were reported.
Susan has not responded to requests for comment.
