Mainstream Media Finally Admits It: Directed Energy Weapons on U.S. Soil

For years, targeted individuals have been told they were imagining it. Now a national television network, a former FBI agent, and one of America’s most respected investigative journalists are saying out loud what this community has known for a long time — directed energy weapons are being used against Americans on American soil.

About the Author: Lance The PI is a licensed California Private Investigator (CA PI License #27617) and former law enforcement officer with 10 years of police experience and 25 years in private investigation. He founded GangstalkingInvestigation.com to provide targeted individuals with professional-grade investigative tools and resources.
In the video below, Lance The PI breaks down the NewsNation missing scientists investigation from a law enforcement and PI perspective — including what former FBI agents are now saying publicly about directed energy weapons, the documented case of researcher Amy Eskridge, and what this mainstream coverage means for every targeted individual who has been dismissed, disbelieved, or diagnosed rather than believed.

The Story Breaking Right Now

NewsNation, a national television network, has been running an investigative series on at least ten scientists and researchers connected to U.S. government nuclear, aerospace, and defense programs who have died or disappeared since 2022. The cases drew renewed attention following the disappearance of retired Air Force General William McCasland earlier this year, and have since reached the White House and the House Oversight Committee.

But what makes this story directly relevant to this community is not the deaths themselves. It is what investigators, former federal agents, and credentialed journalists are now saying publicly about how some of these people may have been killed.

“It is no longer isolated to overseas.” — Investigative journalist Catherine Herridge, speaking about directed energy weapon attacks on American citizens

Herridge, one of the most credentialed national security journalists in the country, made that statement in the context of the missing scientists coverage. She was drawing a direct line between the government-acknowledged Havana Syndrome attacks on U.S. diplomats and CIA officers abroad — and what may now be happening domestically.

What Former FBI Agents Are Now Saying About DEWs

Former FBI agent Ben Hansen appeared on NewsNation to discuss the cases. He stated that directed energy weapons could not be ruled out as a factor. He went further, noting that certain frequencies — including infrasound operating below normal human hearing thresholds — are well-documented to produce paranoia, anxiety, and the physical sensation of being watched or followed.

For anyone in the targeted individual community, that description will not be unfamiliar. These are symptoms that have been reported consistently, dismissed consistently, and used to discredit the people experiencing them. Now a former federal agent is describing the same symptom profile in the context of a documented federal investigation.

The Missing Scientists: Case by Case

The Case of Amy Eskridge

One of the most significant individual cases in the NewsNation series is that of Amy Eskridge, a researcher working on advanced propulsion technology who died in June 2022 in Huntsville, Alabama. Her death was officially ruled a suicide.

Before she died, Eskridge told former British intelligence officer Franc Milburn that she believed she was being attacked by a directed energy weapon. She showed him photographs documenting physical symptoms on her hands. And she sent a text message to a friend stating plainly: if you see any report that I killed myself, I most definitely did not.

From an investigative standpoint, what Eskridge did in the days before her death is textbook evidence preservation. She identified a threat, documented physical symptoms, disclosed to a credible third party, and created a written record that contradicted the official narrative before that narrative existed. That is exactly the protocol outlined in the GANG STALKING: A Target’s Field Manual — because it works, and because it is the difference between a case that can be investigated and one that disappears.

The Case of Melissa Casias

Melissa Casias was an administrative worker at Los Alamos National Laboratory — the birthplace of America’s nuclear weapons program. She went missing in June 2024. Her phone had been wiped before she disappeared. Her skeletal remains were found in a wooded area nearly a year later.

Forensic examination of her skull found no projectile fragments — a significant finding in a death that has been characterized as a possible shooting. Her family believes the scene was staged. Law enforcement has not ruled out foul play.

As a former law enforcement officer, Lance The PI notes that the combination of a wiped device, a body found in a remote location, and forensic findings that do not align with the stated cause of death is not a pattern consistent with an accident or a routine suicide. That pattern is consistent with an operation designed to produce a conclusion rather than discover one.

Why This Matters for Targeted Individuals

The Havana Syndrome cases established something critical: the United States government acknowledged that American personnel were being attacked by directed energy weapons. That acknowledgment did not extend to civilians. The official position has been that such attacks were geographically limited to overseas postings and specific high-value targets.

Catherine Herridge’s statement — that it is no longer isolated to overseas — is a direct challenge to that position. And it is being made not by a targeted individual, not by an anonymous online community, but by a journalist with decades of national security reporting credentials on a national television platform.

This is the mainstream confirmation that this community has been waiting for. It does not validate every claim made by every person. But it validates the core proposition: that directed energy weapons exist, that they have been used against civilians, and that the government has reason to conceal that fact.

If you are a targeted individual, your most important tool right now is documentation.

The Amy Eskridge case demonstrates exactly why a documented record matters — and what it looks like when someone takes the threat seriously before it is too late. The resources below were built by a licensed PI specifically for people in your situation.
