Richard Doty
Documented What these labels mean →Former AFOSI special agent (Kirtland AFB, 1979–80s). **Documented disinformation agent**: AFOSI FOIA records confirm the Bennewitz operation, and Doty admits on camera (Mirage Men) that he planted fabricated alien material with UFO researchers (Bennewitz; Linda Moulton Howe's Kirtland 'documents'). He has since made new first-hand-sounding claims (a 1979 'Yankee Black' SAP read-in; a 2019 offer to work disinformation with Elizondo at Space Force). **Vault rule: nothing Doty says counts as corroboration; treat his claims as possible continued disinformation.**
