UFO scientists Amy Eskridge and David Wilcock both reportedly died from self-inflicted gunshot wounds. But the internet isn't buying this narrative, especially after Amy's old texts resurface.
The internet refuses to believe that UFO expert David Wilcock's reported death on April 20, 2026, was a suicide. Amid the ongoing speculation, an old text from late UFO scientist Amy Eskridge has resurfaced, casting doubt on her cause of death in 2022. With Wilcock's death fresh in everyone's minds, the fact that both he and Eskridge were reported to have died from "self-inflicted gunshot wound(s)" has intensified debate that both deaths may be part of a broader conspiracy theory. Now, the internet is questioning what could have been their actual cause of death, if not suicide?
Amy Eskridge was a brilliant 34-year-old plasma physicist and UFO researcher who co-founded the Institute for Exotic Science in Huntsville, AL (Rocket City). She was reportedly about to make a breakthrough and warned publicly that "disclosure is coming out of Huntsville" before she died from apparent suicide. On June 11, 2022, Eskridge was found dead from a "self-inflicted gunshot wound" to the head.
While Amy's family, including her scientist father, Richard Eskridge, denied any mystery, her death story has not quite sat well over the years. Almost immediately, doubts began to circulate, and none of Amy's close ones was ready to believe the suicide story. Now, the doubts have resurfaced with new evidence, as the Daily Mail identifies her as the "eleventh" UFO-linked scientist who has died under mysterious circumstances.
What's fueling the current wave of speculation is messages Eskridge allegedly sent shortly before her death. The late scientist's friend, former British intelligence officer Franc Milburn, shared a series of texts to The Daily Mail, where Eskridge discussed the possibility of her dying. In one particular text, dated May 13, 2022, has grabbed attention, wherein Eskridge said:
"If you see any report that I killed myself, I most definitely did not. If you see any report that I overdosed, I most definitely did not. If you see any report that I killed anyone else, I most definitely did not."
Eskridge reportedly warned others to treat any claims of suicide or accidental death as suspicious. According to Franc Milburn, she had expressed fears of harassment, hacking, and threats tied to her, and was even planning to expose it. Milburn further claimed he spoke to Eskridge just hours before her death and "noticed nothing unusual."
Eskridge’s case has since become a flashpoint for wider theories, which have now intensified with the back-to-back deaths of Nick Pope and, now, David Wilcock. Some allege Amy was targeted due to her research, and she complained about threats, cyberstalking, and even injuries she believed were caused by so-called directed energy weapons. However, Eskridge's family has firmly rejected these claims. They claimed she struggled with chronic pain, and her father dismissed the speculation outright, saying, "Scientists die also, just like other people."
The renewed focus comes amid unconfirmed reports that Wilcock, another figure in similar circles, may have died under comparable circumstances. He, too, was anti-suicide and had publicly stated that he was "not suicidal at all" in a 2022 post. With both cases now being discussed side by side, some online communities are calling the deaths connected, claiming they are part of a broader pattern involving researchers in aerospace and UAP-related fields. Military intelligence analyst Eddie Abbott wrote on X:
"It’s Duck and cover time!!! David Wilcock's 'Suicide' too…Nick Pope with some crazy aggressive Cancer out of nowhere!!! 2 months and he was gone!!! Both tied to that same circle, both gone within two weeks. The whole pattern with the aerospace scientists is getting harder to wave off. Shit is just upside down.. it’s so Secret Government at this point!!!! SCIENTIST WARNED: 'I DID NOT KILL MYSELF'... THEN FOUND DEAD!"

Despite all the noise, the claims remain speculative at best, with no official confirmation that the deaths of Wilcock and Eskridge are linked.
