Researcher Roberto Pinotti has presented what he believes is proof that a UFO crash occurred in Italy on June 13, 1933, 14 years before the Roswell incident.
Last month, whistleblower David Grusch, a veteran of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), came forward with claims that the United government has has retrieved and studied multiple UFOs of non-human origin and recovered alien bodies from crash sites.
One of his most interesting claims is that the Vatican was involved in the United States’ alleged secret UFO retrieval program’s first-ever mission.
“It’s long been known that the regime of Italian dictator Benito Mussolini documented numerous UAP [Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, or UFOs]. An internal memo from the Italian Secret Services includes crude drawings of the UAPs,” Grusch told NewsNation.
“1933 was the first recovery in Europe, in Magenta, Italy. They recovered a partially intact vehicle, and the Italian government moved it to a secure airbase in Italy until around 1944-1945.
“The Pope back-channeled that and told the Americans what the Italians had and we ended up scooping it.”
Following that revelation, Roberto Pinotti has now come forward and shared with DailyMail.com documents he claims are evidence of the June 13, 1933 crash.
“I and my colleague Alfredo Lissoni began investigating the story of the 1933 UFO crash in Lombardy in 1996, when we received some original secret documents about the case,” he told DailyMail.com.
Included in those documents is evidence that a secret department set up by Mussolini to study the UFO.
They include two June 1933 telegrams in Italian, one demanding ‘absolute silence’ over an ‘alleged landing on national soil of unknown aircraft’.
Another, dated June 13, threatens the ‘immediate arrest’ and ‘maximum penalties’ for any journalists reporting news of an ‘aircraft of unknown nature and origin’.
‘Immediate recasting of any leads from the newspapers bearing said news is ordered,’ the second telegram said.
Both say they are by ‘personal order’ of ‘Il Duce’ – Mussolini himself.
Pinotti also received handwritten memos on a government agency letterhead dated August 22, 1936 which include a sketch and description of the UFO.
The craft was reported by DailyMail.com to have been a “cylindrical aircraft with portholes on the sides and white and red lights.”
“The evidence speaks for itself. And it shows that the first world leader who officially (although secretly) faced the UFO problem was not president Harry Truman with the Roswell incident in the United States but Italy’s Benito Mussolini,” said Pinotti.
Marco Negri, whose family has lived in Northern Italy for over a century, backs up Pinotti and Grusch’s claims.
“My great-great grandfather Pietro [who at one point was head of the town’s police force] told my father a story about the strange crash in 1933, since he was young,’ Marco said.
“It was a second-hand story told to me by my father when I was a child in the early 1990s. But it matches the story of the crash.
“I was told a strange metal plane with no wings crashed somewhere between Vergiate and Magenta.
“I was told there was a big censorship around this crash. The fascist secret police were sent to the surrounding cities to keep people silent about it.”
Negri, as well as Pinotti, both also claim two bodies were found inside the downed craft.
Of course, the US Department of Defense denies all of these claims.
