1973, The Doraty Abduction, Houston, Texas

Houston,TX 1973. One of the few UFO encounter cases which also involved animal
mutilation occurred in May, 1973, and involved four women. Judy Doraty, her
daughter Cindy, Judy's mother and sister-in-law would have the most terrifying
experience of their lives.
After playing Bingo in Houston, the four women were returning to Judy's home town
of Texas City, but first going by Alto Loma to drop off Judy's sister and brother-
in-law.

After dropping off the two in Alto Loma, the remaining four saw a strange light,
which seemed to be hovering in the night sky. The sight was intriguing enough that
the four women stopped, and got out of the car to get a clearer look at the source
of the light. They watched in awe until the light disappeared. They then resumed
their trip to Texas City.

Eventually, Judy began to suffer from extreme headaches and anxiety. After being
seen and dismissed by several doctors, she was referred to well-known Ufologist and
hypnotist Dr. Leo Sprinkle. Sprinkle's previous experience with the UFO enigma led
him to recommend hypnosis as a way to relieve Judy of her emotional trauma. There
can be little doubt that Sprinkle suspected an abduction from the beginning.

Under hypnosis, it was revealed that Judy had apparently been abducted aboard an
extra-terrestrial spacecraft. Judy went on in detail, describing how a cow was
taken up into the craft and methodically mutilated by two "small entities." During
the hypnotic regression, Judy described the unusual sensation of being in two
places at once. She said that she was still standing beside her car after they
stopped to watch the strange light in the sky.

However, Judy also said that at the same time, she was in a strange chamber
watching the gruesome experiment unfolding before her eyes. Footage of this
regression was included in Linda Moulton-Howe's award-winning documentary "Strange
Harvests."

In a 1989 interview on 21st Century Radio, Linda Howe divulged what had been
learned from the experience of Judy Doraty:

"Judy described . . . in a pale beam of yellow light, a small brown and white calf
being taken up into a craft. Then, in an extraordinary way, [Judy) was inside the
craft, and she watches the calf have pieces of it excised: the tongue, the sex
organs, the eyes...?"

Some of Sprinkle's hypnosis session is included below:

Sprinkle asks, "Is there anyone around you?" There was this long, almost forty-
five-second pause, and then she said: "two little men."

"[The two beings) were about three and a half to four feet tall; grey creatures
with large egg-shaped heads."

"It's like a spotlight shining down on the back of my car. And it's like it has
substance to it. I can see an animal being taken up in this. I can see it squirming
and trying to get free. And it's like it's being sucked up."

She then went on to mention seeing her daughter Cindy on an 'operating' table.

She went on:

"They don't listen, they just ignore me....go about their work as if it's nothing.
They don't seem to have any emotions. They don't seem to care. They just take some
samples from her..."

It would be a number of years later when Judy's daughter Cindy would also undergo
regressive hypnosis. Her session only corroborated her mother's.

Statement by Judy Doraty on February 01, 2003 at 19:48:28:

First I must say there is no doubt that abductions exist. My abduction took place
in 1973. There were 16 eye witnesses to the craft, though not all remember an
abduction. My daughter who was 14 at the time and myself. This was first reported
to Ellington airforce base in Texas, who denied anything was on radar at the time.
Our abduction was also returning from a bingo game in Houston, to our home in Texas
City, first going by Alta Loma to drop off sister and brother in law.

There was another sighting of three people coming from a bingo game in Houston that
got burned by the effects of the sighting. Our sighting was almost a year before
theirs. So much happened that night I would not attempt to go in detail, we were
all changed and have never been the same since. We were first ridiculed so much by
others who were not present (family mostly) I did not talk about it for a few
years.

Then my husband returned home from Viet Nam and we were stationed in Yuma, AZ. I
somehow heard about APRO. I called them and told them about my sighting and the
very next day, a Mr. Daugherty and his wife and a doctor. who had experience in
hypnosis named Rose Tennant came to my house and spent the entire day going over
what happened.

Dr. Tenant regressed me and a few details came out or shall I say surfaced. I had
been having terrible migraines, and just the amount of surfacing relieved much. I
know I remembered a formula that was given to me by the small gray alien. I think
that is what caused a lot of problems. I did not say anything to anyone else as I
was still gun-shy and afraid of ridicule.

A few years later I got a call from a lady Named Linda Howe. We talked a long time
her trying to convince me I needed to be regressed again for a TV documentary she
was doing called the Strange Harvest.

For some reason I began to trust her as she convinced me she believed what I was
saying.

And as all abductees know this is one of the most important things to help one get
on with their life. In my abduction I witnessed a small calf being transported in a
LARGE CRAFT. At that time I somehow was teleported or astroprojected or something,
as I was in the craft seeing what was going on as well as standing by my car I had
gotten out of to see what the huge light was that had been pacing our car for about
twenty miles or so. Anyway I allowed a DR. Leo Sprinkle from the University of
Wyoming to do his regression.

It was about a three hour regression, I fulfilled MS. Howe's agenda she got an Emma
for her documentary, but I was left with all the information in my head that still
needed syphoning. I asked her to help me write a book to be able to tell the
amazing things that I was told and shown. She agreed and then kept putting it off.

Both her and Dr. Sprinkle used my case for their own agenda and had little else to
say to me. I guess I am trying to warn all of you to be careful who you trust. My
main concern was I always wanted my abduction to be presented in a way that it
would not be construed as a crazy woman venting her boredom.
So again I pulled myself in a shell and talked to no one. I was contacted by
Sightings to do a follow up and I called Linda Howe she told me it would make the
story unbelievable to the average person and I should not do it, so I turned them
down. Later I learned she a a rift with Mr. Wrinklier and that was the only reason
she did not want me to be on the show.

Then about ten years ago I was told by someone in the UFO community who was
familiar with my case that Ms. Howe had gone to Kirkland airforce base was warned
to keep my mouth shut but Ms. Howe never told this to me. She told a ufologist who
called me. In other words the government did not want me to say anything about a
formula I was given.

I became frightened and this is the first time I have shared anything. I hope some
one reads this that will contact me and give me advice or help as the abduction is
30 years old, I am 63 and before I die I would love to know what many already know,
and why they do not want my story told...thanks for listening.
