Under questioning, Grusch confirmed that he had knowledge of “people who have been harmed or injured” in the course of government efforts to conceal UFO information.Īsked by an oversight committee member if he had “feared for his life”, Grusch replied: “Yes definitely.” “It hurt me both professionally and personally,” Grusch said. Speaking on Wednesday, Grusch said he has faced “very brutal” retaliation as a result of his allegations. He said that in his role in the government he had been charged with investigating what military, defense and other agencies knew about aliens and alien craft, but alleged he had been prevented from accessing secret government UFO programs.


Grusch filed a whistleblower complaint in 2022. The hearing attracted intense global interest, and provided speculation and claims that the US is hiding evidence of alien life and technology – mixed with large doses of skepticism. “I was informed, in the course of my official duties, of a multi-decade UAP crash retrieval and reverse-engineering program, to which I was denied access,” Grusch told the committee. On Wednesday, Grusch repeated some of those claims – although not all – under oath.

The hearing was prompted by claims from Grusch in June that the government was secretly harboring alien space craft.
