Interview with Daniel Sheehan July 14, 2001 ‘Strange Days…Indeed’ with Errol Bruce-Knapp and Scott Robins 

Transcribed by Grant Cameron

SDI: Our guest for tonight has degrees from Harvard in government, law and divinity. He established the Christic Institute in Washington D.C., and has been legal counsel on many high profile cases… Cases such as Karen Silkwood for example — Iran-Contra, the American Sanctuary Movement, the Pentagon papers, Three Mile Island and Watergate. He has gained access to many restricted government files. Danny has represented John Mack, chairman of the Harvard Department of Clinical Psychology, after Harvard tried to fire him after he published “Abduction: Human Encounters with Aliens.” Mack tried to publish an article on his research in the New England Journal of Medicine, but the editorial board wouldn’t even consider it, so he wrote the book. Daniel Sheehan, funded by Laurance Rockefeller, resolved the case against John Mack very quickly. Daniel Sheehan has said that many members of the human family are not properly prepared for open contact with extraterrestrials. In May he appeared with many UFO-related witnesses with the Disclosure Project at a Washington Press Conference. Joining us from his home in California is lawyer Daniel Sheehan… (A short segment ensued where Steven Bassett, held over from the hour before, says hello to Sheehan and thanks him for the work that he has done over the last year to advance the Disclosure process.) [The interview began with a short clip of Sheehan recounting his experience of seeing classified materials in the basement of a building of the Library of Congress in 1977.]

SDI: Dan Sheehan. You have been a busy man since you were last on this program which was back in October, many months ago. 

DS: Yes I remember.
