AudioBlog: PART II: A Multiple Witness UFO Abduction

In last week’s blog, we wrote about an incident involving
Filiberto Cárdenas, a Cuban exile living in Hialeah, Florida.
Cárdenas was reportedly seen by his friend and his friend’s wife
and daughter to float up in a beam of light into some sort of craft
that then flew off. Two hours later, he was found 16 miles away on
his hands and knees in the middle of the road. He was taken to a
hospital and tested for radiation. The tests came up negative, but
he experienced mysterious symptoms including an excessive thirst,
shaking hands, and a sulfurous body odor. While this case might
