Criticism of Fouché
On his website alienscientist.com, Rys posted an analysis concluding that Fouché's TR-3B testimony had "no technical value" and was "likely fabricated by Ed in an effort to combine stories about the Nazi Bell device with the Belgian UFO Wave of triangular UFO sightings so that his story would be more believable." Rys additionally accused Fouché of fabricating military documents and using a stolen F-117A photograph. He described Fouché as "one of the most deceitful and manipulative people that I have ever met," attributing this behavior to PTSD-driven alcoholism.
Rys's email to the photographer of the alleged Area 51 F-117 photo contained leading statements against Fouché, potentially undermining the objectivity of the photographer's response. Both Rys's and David Hilton's critical videos were subsequently removed or unlisted from YouTube.
