'Missing 411', by David Paulides: Tracking unusual missing persons cases

Paulides comments on the disappearance of the British professor at La Silla observatory in Chile. I'd heard that his body was found about 3km away from the observatory, and the fact that he wasn't seen for almost two months is bizarre enough (it's a desolate semi-desertic area with nowhere to hide). The fact that he was found with some clothes removed is intriguing but there are apparently no public results from the autopsy.
Paulides' comments start at about the 37min mark here:

Yes, some missing pieces of his death that only on scene details and the autopsy would reveal.

Binary star research (expert) was interesting.

When David Paulides claims that "no remote viewer can find a missing person" he is probably factually right.
That doesn't mean that RVers are generally inept, though.

It's just that their abilities seem to end at our realm's border. Once a person is taken and transferred there is no way finding them.
That's what sniffer dogs have to experience when they abruptly lose the scent...
 
I think that remote vievers in some cases (not in all) can see where they are, but you can't find it, because it is not in our realm.
Maybe some things that they see are so strange, they can't translate it to anything because here is nothng like this in existence, so it is impossible to draw souch things or discribe it.

Caught Davide's segment you posted, was the remote viewer part discussed there? Did not find it, however agree with you on the difficulties (bold) - reminded me of the remote viewers associated with Dyatlov Pass - there is a specific SOTT article on it, however this link is not it.

Yes, the Dyatlov Pass viewers could see things, however darkly strange as recalled.

As for David's discussion here (seems to be from April), much time was spent, at least a good 15 min., reading from Yahoo News on the Hunter Bidden laptop case which also mentioned the story of Patrick Ho. This is what he read from:


To end, he spoke of articles on Fentanyl, on Title 42, and Covid - southern boarder, vaccinations and immigrants not being tested for covid (from Montana he mentions the flow of Albertans into Kalispell (about 70 miles away) during covid who had to be tested.) He then brings up natural immunity and ends the show. No missing cases, per se.
 

Watched, very good film.

The one case (well all were really), up in the Montana Sweetgrass 'Crazies,' was really strange, items and remains turning up even 2 years later. Spooky.

Concerning this case again, which is still early:

The Body Of A Missing British Astronomer, Thomas Marsh, Has Been Found In Chile Near A Space Telescope - Wonderful Engineering


Forgot to connect where his body was found, in some form of a rock or boulder field, which is one of David's Missing 411 data points.

Carabineros, Chile’s national police, reported finding the body shortly before noon Thursday among a pile of rocks near La Silla.

Watched that one last night, and immediately wondered if, given his specialty in binary start systems, he has stumbled on evidence of a twin sun and it being somewhere pretty close. I also connected that idea (just for fun) to his phd student reportedly (by Chilean media) telling police that Marsh had told the student something "super strange" and then "rebuked the student for insufficient commitment to the profession" just before his disappearance. Very cryptic.

Maybe a good question for the next session.

There have been many rumors about the British professor that do not make sense. At some point the suspicion was that the student killed him, that he was kidnapped, that he voluntarily disappeared to live off the grid or assume a new identity, etc.. Now what's "the common wisdom" is that he just wondered and fell. Even if he lost his mind, wondered somewhere and got lost, fell, got attacked by some animals (there are wild donkeys there (called "astronomos" by the staff there because they hang out close to telescopes), wild horses, foxes of two types, pumas, condors, guanacos (related to llamas), and vizcachas (similar to rabbits)), the fact that he wasn't spotted within a few hours given the geography is astonishing. Either the carabineros and the military are very very very incompetent to a paranormal degree, or something of a high strangeness happend. After all, the region is known to be a little bizarre, and at times a little freaky.
 
Yes that story made even less sense after the body was found, and I would second a question to the C's if possible.

The bizarre behavior that he supposedly displayed prior to walking away, actually reminded me of that Elisa Lam video where she behaved in truly bizarre ways before leaving the elevator for some reason. So I would think there's more to this story than it's being revealed.

Also, if I recall well, Paulides reported on some cases where the person before disappearing calls their friends or family in panic or not making sense.

Just checked that lead...and: 🤔

There are some brief details discussed in this article by El Día on Tom Marsh - translated to English. There are a few odd points (IMO):


1669796290136.png

This Thursday morning, GOPE Coquimbo personnel found the lifeless body of British astronomer Thomas Marsh (61), who had been missing since Friday, September 16, two days after arriving in Chile in the middle of a work trip to the La Silla observatory, located at the northern limit of the Coquimbo Region.

The news was confirmed by Carabineros de Chile after 12:30 p.m., putting an end to 56 days of an extensive and arduous search, which has captured the attention of national and international public opinion, and which in its final stretch included the presence of the scientist's wife and two of his sons in the field, who arrived in the country a few days ago.

The discovery was made 5 kilometers away from the observatory, in the same grounds of La Silla, which is administered by the European observatory ESO, which collaborated with the tracking in the complex ground where the astronomical observation center is located. The point is within the "site of interest" delimited by the investigation of the Regional Prosecutor's Office of Coquimbo, based on the evidences found in the cloths during the eight weeks in which the works were extended.

It should be noted that, according to preliminary presumptions in the investigation, led by the regional prosecutor Adrián Vega, Tom Marsh would have left his hotel room at the observatory in the morning and, on his way to the telescope, he could have taken one of the trails on the side of La Silla hill, where he would have gotten lost.

From the point where his first belongings were found in the open air, the search progressed along paths of difficult access, finding other items that the astronomer dropped on his walk, such as clothes and a bottle of water, according to the background of the investigation. These objects were sent for laboratory analysis, where it was confirmed that they corresponded to the scientist.

At the last point where evidence was found, 3.5 kilometers from the observatory, specific areas and a possible route in the direction of Punta Colorada were established, and the area was combed to find new clues and the missing person.

In principle, Prosecutor Vega had extended the work until October 30, requesting new resources, including border personnel from the Army and specialized units from the Chilean Fire Department. However, due to the lack of results and with new resources requested by the prosecutor, a new extension of the search was announced, until the first half of November, in the hope of covering all the ground that remained to be covered and finding the whereabouts of the Warwick scholar.

RESCUE AND HYPOTHESIS

Once the news was confirmed, hours passed before the first information on the discovery could be obtained. El Día sources indicated, after 5:00 p.m., that the rescue work continued, since the body was in a place of difficult access, requiring elements such as ropes to remove it.

The work was arduous and late at night, the authorities held a press conference from the camp at the site, to give preliminary information after the external examinations, which must now be contrasted with expert reports and in-depth analyses, in order to determine what happened with certainty.

Although the cause of death and possible involvement of third parties will have to be ratified by the examinations of the Forensic Medical Service (SML), the main hypothesis of the Prosecutor's Office and the PDI is that Tom Marsh suffered an accident in the middle of his hike along the trails and hills of La Silla.

"It is a very steep area, in which in order to go down the hills you have to go through very rocky sectors and, effectively, anyone can twist their ankle and fall. That is one of the working hypotheses, which must be confirmed by forensic examinations," said Vega.

To explain the difficulty of the terrain and the possibility of an accident after a loss, El Día spoke with people involved in the search, who commented that it is not a straight line road, but that there are slopes and unevenness to be overcome. In addition, due to the extension and characteristics of the terrain, it is easy to lose one's bearings if one loses a reference point, such as the observatory. In fact, sources indicate that in the middle of the work, a team of high mountain rescuers walked for more than six hours one night and were unable to return to the camp.

This context, then, allows us to have a better reference of the point where Tom Marsh was found, 5 kilometers from the observatory. It should be recalled that evidence of his passage had been found between 1.5 and 3.5 kilometers and, as pointed out by the regional prosecutor yesterday at press point, "all the surroundings of La Silla had been tracked up to 5 and 8 kilometers around and that work was being redone, because due to the characteristics of the terrain, it was likely that he could have not been seen from some angle, because it was a rocky sector and you have to be at a precise angle to be able to observe."


INVESTIGATIONS: DATE AND CAUSE OF DEATH

The prosecutor Adrián Vega, highlighted the fact of "being able to give peace of mind to the family" with this finding, after months of uncertainty about the whereabouts of the Briton. "The investigation continues with all the rigorous examinations to define all the contours of the case," he said.

Although the prosecutor did not venture to estimate a date of death, which will have to be determined with certainty, as in every death, the analysis of experts allow us to have an estimated period, which in this case, according to sources of our media, would be 55 days. The search lasted 56 days, so Marsh's death would have been early after his disappearance.

To determine this and other important data, such as the cause of death, the prosecutor decided to send the body to the Forensic Medical Service of the Metropolitan Region, where it is expected to advance more quickly in the relevant examinations, in parallel to the investigation being carried out by the Homicide Squad of the PDI La Serena.

In the city of Santiago, Vega explained, it will be faster and more opportune to have access to all the possibilities of specialists, examinations and more specific laboratory analyses, which commonly delay the investigations in the regions.

"In any case, they were going to have to be carried out and we prefer to do it in situ, so that it will be more precise and the family will soon be able to carry out all the necessary procedures", he added.

FAMILY IN SILENCE

Thursday marked 12 days since Felicity Marsh, Thomas' wife, and two of their children arrived at the La Silla site to follow the details of the search first hand. Until then, they had been following the case in direct contact with the regional prosecutor, but from England.

Days before arriving, they published what has been their only statement, apart from the tweets that both Felicity and her daughter Tabitha had published to spread the news of the disappearance of the scientist. In the opportunity, they thanked for the show of support and gave heartfelt words to Marsh, waiting for news.

They had planned to travel back to Santiago in the early hours of Friday morning, when they received the news from the prosecutor Adrián Vega.

At the time of going to press, they had not made any new statements on their social networks and it is not known what steps they will take next.

In this article (again translated) it said: "Finally, the Prosecutor pointed out that Tom Marsh was found wearing trekking clothes and shoes."

El Día has not added anything else really - it may take awhile for the forensics.
