Robert Klein, a 25-year law enforcement veteran, told NewsNation he spotted a spherical object, about the size of a Mini Cooper, hovering just 30 feet from his patrol car near a reservoir in Fairfield County. NewsNation special correspondent and investigative journalist Ross Coulthart joins "NewsNation Prime" to discuss the alleged UFO sighting.

And??? Has anyone requested to see a copy of his report for the alleged incident/ Does a report even exist? Are there correspondign reports or calls made to police depratments that would correoborate this claim? Did he take any phots or videos of he alleged object? if not? Why? 

 

This just sounds like more a misidentification if anything.

[jethrofloyd]

Hm...it could be the Ball lighting. A rare and unexplained phenomenon described as lumienscent. A spherical objects that vary from pea-sized to several meters in diameter. I believe the ball lghting caused the (in)famous the Rendlesham Forest UFO incident, 1980.

yet another claim with nothing to back it up! I mean, what's the point?

Maybe the point is tell a story & get a little bit of attention- a story coming from a veteran police officer sounds more convincing & he knows it!

Tedious & pointless IN_MY_OPINON- another one for the nothing box! zzzzzz

Video is interesting.   Again, in the Current Year with everyone glued to their phones, one wonders why mashing the camera icon and the big red record button for most people wouldn't be an almost-knee jerk reaction when seeing anything strange.  Then again, driving around at night, it's not likely the guy would have had it in his hand, or staring at it, etc., and there is something to be said for the momentary "wtf" reaction that may take several seconds before thinking to document the encounter.  The sequence may be apologized for, but is nevertheless thrown into the pile of similar or identical cases.

Yeah, it doesn't work like that. The last thing you do is take your eyes off of what you're seeing to do something else. Never even crossed my mind because what I was seeing was so seemingly impossible. Nowadays, it doesn't matter anyway. What video has anyone seen that hasn't been **** on?

I tend to agree, sadly.  "Skepticism" as a hobby, intellectual pursuit, or even (in some strange cases) profession tends to devolve from usefully ensuring rational treatment of a subject matter into merely maintaining a status quo, or mere gatekeeping.

Yep.

I have an IPhone, I think it’s an 11, prolly considered a dinosaur already.  Anyway, it’s the most modern phone I’ve ever had and its camera is good for daytime and about 5-10 feet.  After that its photos suck. So, even if a person had a modern phone with camera app at the ready, I bet the photos would suck and everyone would say there’s nothing here to see.  My point - taking good photos takes preparation and good equipment.  Those two things being ready during the moment of some brief event is unlikely.  I was riding in the car with my wife in the passenger seat, we both had our phones, we were watching the road and having a conversation.  All the sudden a person driving about two car lengths ahead of us just drove right off the freeway, catching about 5 feet of air in the process.  Mind/brain saw the whole thing, remember it perfectly, it was so brief a moment that it would have been impossible to get a photo of it unless the phone was already filming and pointed in the right direction when the event occurred.

Exactly.

He makes it known he's a law enforcement officer in an attempt to lend a higher level of credibility to his claim.

Ok then, fine. In his line of work  as a LEO, he's trained to document scenes and sightings of various situations and encounters. This being in 2022, there might even be available bodycam material to review. There certainly should have been a call from him to dispatch to have another unit in the general vicinity to have them see if they could observe what he was seeing. Did this happen? if not, why? Maybe dispatch could have contacted a local airport to see if they had any idea what was being allegedly seen by the officer. Did this happen? If not, why? If nothing else, the officer should have made some contact to dispatch. Where is that recording to validate his statement? Did he file a report at the end of his shift? Where is that at? If he did not document this, why not?

Those that make excuses why they couldn't provide a shred of proof of their personal sightings now attempt to cover for this lack of evidence and corroboration by the law enforcement officer. Hilarious really. Almost like children on a playground telling tall tales to try and sound cool, but can never provide anything to back up their story. Or lazily paste someone else's meme to try and discredit those that skeptically ask questions for clarity. That's a reasonable response, not really.

"You don't know what I saw. I know what I saw! It's not my fault I failed to do anything to document my sighting!!!" 

Sure buddy, sure.

Maybe if you post that more, it will make your sighting real.  🤣

After all these years, one would think that you would have figured out by now that this forum is not your cup of tea.

I'm here waiting for someone like your good self to produce something tangible- I look around all the time for something I feel worthy of linking to.

No luck so far! So why are you here, Earl me ol' mate? 😉

I like reading the reports to compare things that I have seen before, or never have seen. I enjoy it! 

One of the differences between us is, I *know* that UAP's exist, and they are clearly not a product of human beings. So I keep my ear to the ground in here.

I know UAP exist too.  But, human beings can't explain what they are.  That's why they are unexplained.

Wrong. 

Most UFOs/UAPs are eventually explained as either man-made or natural phenomenon. 

The reason why we cant explain all of them is because we dont have enough information.  That is how and why this paranormal stuff can exist at all... in the low information zone. 

The UAP phenomenon is our version of past centuries trolls and witches.

Until I see some hard corroborating evidence I say its a cultural phenomenon, wishful thinking and a figment of our imagination.

I didn't say ALL of these sightings are not explainable, so your wording is incorrect, it is not wrong.

you saw the pic of UFO's over Salem Coastguard station, and you never debunked it, and you know that,

oh, sure, people jumped up and down, said the pic was fake, and my father a liar. But that was nothing but tongue waggings. 

nobody ever debunked that photo or the testimony of witnesses. So your "wrong" is wrong.

Not at all. Read my post again a couple of times. Some UFO/UAPs have been identified as man-made objects!! Thats a fact. 

Your alleged UFO is one of those in the low information zone. Everything points to it not being a real object... as in a fake, most likely a reflection in the window.

Nothing points to it being an extraterrestrial visitor.

Eyewitnesses testimony is the weakest form of evidence. 

Your dad is a jokester, a teller of tales. Hes word is worth nothing when it comes to this.

And this is supposed to be earth shattering news?? And there are some UFO/UAP's have been identified as non-human crafts, and that's a fact. too.

You're such a liar. Face facts... the only way you can debunk it, is to LIE LIE LIE. There was no glass in the window, and you know that. there was a screen
and while you're at it, what are those reflections supposed to be??

Another lie. Humans don't have crafts like that now, nor did we in 1952. or SHOW me.

So several people saw the UFO's for 5-10 minutes and you say they are unreliable??? another LIE. Or prove your point. Don't just wave a magic wand
and make them all go away. Real life does not work that way in such a situation.

Burden of proof, buddie. You made the claim that it was ET, now back it up with more than - Daddy flapped his lips and I believed him! 😄 Until you do, I say this is an obvios hoax.

No I dont know that, and neither do you!

Again, I dont believe them for a second.
