Indeed, this is what happens if you know a "part" of the truth at least, and open your mouth about it. His mistake is lack of discretion!

I am prone to believing some former military/government personnel. Phil Schneider was not one of them.

I'm not familiar with this gentleman, but the manner in which he died certainly raises question.

Although I would NEVER commit suicide, I imagine a shot to the head would be most effective. A hose around the neck? Hell no.

Phil Schneider, whom I'm not even sure truly existed at this point, claimed a lot of stuff that had zero proof to it. He was kind of like the still living Clifford Stone, except Mr. Stone is still alive, still making wild claims, and actually managed to get some UFO documentation out of the government that didn't otherwise already exist in public record. Clifford Stone has at least some small shred of credibility while Phil Schneider had absolutely zero.

Also, Schneider and Stone's stories conflict each other. Philip's story is that aliens are evil and he fought with them. Stone's story is that aliens are nice and are attempting to do good. Stone so far has the edge on credibility plus he hasn't died in any mysterious way. However, Stone's son did die in a car wreck which he believes was done to shut him up (didn't work).

Ehh.... I take Phil Schiennder with a grain of salt. Some of the things he says sound reasonable, with others clearly do not. As to his death, it was an obvious murder.

Like I said, some things are reasonable, so pick and choose what you should believe. I'm sure there are some grains of truth to be found between him and Cliff Stone.

I still find his death suspicious. Funny way too kill oneself wouldn't you agree? Possibly some of the things he said were true and he filled in the gaps with storytelling? He may have hit a few nerves with what he was saying. There is no proof either way in terms of his story, I just though it was an extremely suspicious death.

If I recall correctly, individuals that commit suicide exibit certain traits in their endeavor.

One may try to make a messy point of it, to get back at someone in a way that cannot be rebutted. Usually splattering oneself in a fashion to be found by a supposed loved one or family, to show them what the other person caused the afflicted to do.

Others, the quiet suicides, generally are pills or such, taken but left with a note.

Rarely, does one goto such devices as wire or rubber hoses, as this is out of the profile.


A suicide like this are out of character with the typical reason and methods of a typical distressed individual.
