According to ABC News' latest report, Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, Pentagon AARO (All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office ) director, published a letter to show his disappointment.

In his statement, Kirkpatrick said that he can't let the UFO congressional hearing pass without saying how insulting it was for the officers of the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community who joined AARO.

He added that many of these employees now have anxieties about their careers being put at risk because of the whistleblower's claims.

Via The Daily Mail UK, Dr. Sean clarified that AARO hasn't found any credible evidence to prove that the allegations of reserve engineering programs for non-human technology are true.

"They are truth-seekers, as am I. But you certainly would not get that impression from yesterday's hearing," added the Pentagon official.

About Recent UFO Congressional Meeting

During the recent UFO congressional hearing, retired U.S. Air Force Maj. David Grusch claimed that the government concealed a multi-decade program to reverse-engineer and collect UFOs.

He accused the government recovered non-human biologics. However, the former defense intelligence official said that he had not seen any of it.

Grusch clarified that he only learned these from anonymous individuals who have direct knowledge regarding the program.

However, Pentagon spokeswoman Sue Gough clarified that the agency hasn't discovered any verifiable information to prove that the reverse-engineering of UFOs existed in the past or current times.

The accusations made by Grusch concern Dr. Kirkpatrick. The Pentagon director said the allegations could lead to retaliation, such as murder intents and physical assaults.

These risks are the reasons why law enforcement is a critical part of the AARO team.

"Yet, contrary to assertions made in the hearing, the central source of those allegations has refused to speak with AARO," he explained.

However, Sue clarified that there's no information yet to prove that any individual has been killed or harmed due to sharing sensitive information about UFOs.
