statement posted to Facebook earlier this month, Wilkerson said dozens of official searchers, along with friends and neighbors coordinating with authorities, have used ground teams, horseback units, drones, helicopters, three types of search dogs, and neighborhood canvassing, including checks for Ring and wildlife videos.
She said she wanted to “dispel” some of the “misinformation” about the case, including what she said were some people’s assumptions that the health condition mentioned in the Silver Alert issued for McCasland was Alzheimer's.

Wilkerson then went on to say that while her husband “had access to some highly classified programs and information,” but retired nearly 13 years ago, and “has had only very commonly held clearances since.”
“It seems quite unlikely that he was taken to extract very dated secrets from him,” she said.
"Maybe the best hypothesis is that aliens beamed him up to the mothership," said the wife of Major General William Neil McCasland.
