2:45 pm to 4:15 pm - Melinda Leslie - The Secret Below Secret Canyon -
She will present extensive evidence for Sedona Arizona's Deep Underground Military Base (DUMB) and for the UAP reverse-engineering happening there. In UAP/UFO Disclosure, what is the logical next step after insider witness testimony, crash retrievals, biologics recovered, psionics, and reverse-engineering legacy programs? How about the locations where they hide all these activities? Melinda will share all about Sedona's DUMB as a case study for just such a location. She will cover the evidence for Sedona's DUMB, the frequent UAP sightings associated with this location, the underground tunnels, various activities witnessed through the years, the Bradshaw Ranch connection, and the staggering implications all this has for UAP Disclosure.
