Congress wants answers about 10 missing U.S. nuclear scientists!
Four scientists from New Mexico, all with connections to U.S. nuclear secrets or rocket technology, are among 10 who have died or disappeared in recent years, raising concerns about national security.The most recent disappearance involves retired Air Force Maj. William McCasland, who was last seen on Feb. 27 after going hiking in the Sandia Mountains near Albuquerque. He has not been seen since.
Lawmakers also wrote that the deaths and disappearances "may represent a grave threat to U.S. national security."
Rep. Eric Burlison of Missouri, a member of the committee, said he would not be surprised if foreign adversaries such as China, Russia, or Iran were involved in targeting some of the nation’s top scientists.
