This is Renegade Files Episode 12, The Socorro UFO Sighting
On April 24th, 1964, Socorro Police officer Lonnie Zamora was returning to the station at the end of an uneventful day. What happened next marked the end of his boring days for the foreseeable future.
On that afternoon Lonnie Zamorra witnessed what has become one of the most enduring Unexplained UFO Sightings in American History.
This is a case with a credible witness whose character has remained sterling for decades. It is also a case with a few, very late in the game, and frankly desperate debunking attempts, which are worth going over for their sheer comedic value. We will examine the claims put forth by Officer Lonnie Zamora, investigate the physical evidence of the sighting and its aftermath, and entertain some of the straw-grasping attempts to explain away this unique UFO event.
So grab your Geiger counter, your 8mm home movie camera, and your mirror shades and come with me once again to the American southwest, as we explore The Socorro UFO Sighting.
