Resolution Criteria

This market resolves based on verified information about what happened to Retired Air Force Maj. Gen. William Neil McCasland, 68, who left his Albuquerque home on foot at approximately 11 a.m. February 27. Resolution will be determined by official statements from law enforcement (Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office, FBI), medical examiners, or credible news reporting citing these authorities. Each answer option resolves YES if evidence confirms that scenario occurred, NO if evidence rules it out, or N/A if the market cannot be resolved.

Background

McCasland's disappearance has drawn attention because of his senior roles in military space and technology programs, including leadership of the Air Force Research Laboratory and work tied to sites historically associated with UFO investigations. His phone, prescription glasses and wearable devices were left behind at the house, and investigators believe his hiking boots, wallet and a .38-caliber revolver with a leather holster are missing. He is "an avid outdoorsman" who hikes, runs and cycles in Albuquerque's Northeast Heights neighborhood and the Sandia Mountains foothills. McCasland has an unspecified "medical issue" that has added urgency to the search, authorities said.

Considerations

Officials said last week that there was no evidence of foul play but that it is unlike McCasland to be out of contact from his family for so long. To date, BCSO has not received any confirmed sighting or confirmed video showing Mr. McCasland leaving the area or indicating a direction of travel. McCasland's wife has publicly addressed speculation about his disappearance, stating he does not possess classified information about UFOs or extraterrestrial materials, though his career involved proximity to classified programs.
