(S/STD) EVALUATION:
Viewer's results are plausible. Search
location results are very much in harmony with known ops data,
with the exception that the off-load location is given as being
along the coast of France, while ops data indicates an actual
West Indies destination. Viewer noted on map (but not in
summary) a location of "peculiar interest" in the Caribbean at
vic 53deg W/19deg N which may be the true location.
Confidence
estimate: 60%

WORKING PAPER
Project :
9012
Date:
900403
Time:
0927-1005
Viewer:
018
Session:
01
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
SG1A
is indeed carrying contraband
1.
(S/STD)
Determine if the
narcotics:
Yes. Two "types" or "portions" of narcotics were detected:
a.
There appear to be people on board (both males and females) who
are using drugs "recreationally" at the time of the viewing session.
b.
A stash of "cargo" drugs (see item 3 below for location).
2.
(S/STD)
Determine the current location of the vessel: At the time of
the session
(0950 hrs., 3 APR 90) the vessel was located through several
attempts to be in the general area of 44 degrees N/10 degrees W (see Fig. 1,
Map, for X-marks).
3.
(S/STD) Where is the narcotics contraband located aboard the vessel ?:
The "cargo" drugs appear to be located slightly forward and approx. half-way
up the structure of the ship (see sketch, Fig. 2). They are located under
the flooring. The particular portion of the flooring appears to also have a
raised flooring over it, made of thin wooden strips (like the raised
flooring behind a butcher-store counter or restaurant kitchen.
4.
(S/STD)
Where will the off-loading/transfer of the narcotics take
place ?: Present projected location appears to be the southwestern coast of
France (see Fig. 1, Map, for 0-marks).
