The UFO Research Center of Pennsylvania states that it researches case reports submitted to them and does not comment on other groups' investigative results.

The newsletter lists contact emails for researchers in various locations, including Pennsylvania, Florida, Missouri, Poland, Georgia, Northeast Florida, Oklahoma, Northern California, Utah, Michigan, and the UK (UFO Research Group, UK). This broad network suggests a wide geographical reach for their investigations.

Paranormal Tips and Crypto-zoology

Under "PARANOMAL TIPS - SOUNDS," the newsletter provides guidance on investigating natural sources of sound within buildings before classifying them as paranormal. Common sound sources listed include people, animals, machinery, external noises, and sounds from physical stress in building materials.

The "CRYPTO-ZOOLOGY INFORMATION IN PENNSYLVANIA" section calls for anyone with information on sightings of Panthers, Mountain lions, Cougars, Thunderbirds, Large Snakes, Strange Creatures, and Bigfoot in Pennsylvania to contact specific researchers. It notes that while Cougar, Coyote, Wolf, Bear, Bald Eagle, and Blue Heron are the most reported creatures, Bigfoot and Thunderbirds are the least reported, with no Bigfoot or Creature Reports in 2013. Notably, there have been no verified reports of Cattle Mutilation in Pennsylvania.

UFORCOP Cold Case Unit and Investigations

The "UFORCOP: COLD CASE UNIT" is based in Pennsylvania with independent investigators and researchers in multiple states, focusing on reopening and reviewing unsolved cases in Ufology, Crypto Zoology, and the Paranormal. Cases of interest include "The Todd Sees Case" (Northumberland, PA), "The Kecksburg Incident" (Kecksburg, PA), "The Brown Mountain Lights" (Morganton, NC), "The Dyatlov Pass Incident" (Dyatlov Pass, RU), and "Strange Creatures in Westmoreland County, PA." The unit notes that many questions remain unanswered regarding timelines, evidence, and witness statements in these cases.

Sightings Reports and Pennsylvania Legends

The "PENNSYLVANIA SIGHTINGS REPORT - JUNE 2014" lists 59 sighting reports filed for the month of May 2014, categorized by Pennsylvania county. This indicates a high volume of reported incidents across the state.

Under "PENNSYLVANIA LEGENDS," the newsletter recounts "The Women in White" legend from Spangler's Spring on the Battlefield of Gettysburg, PA. The legend describes a woman who committed suicide over a broken love affair or a nun administering to the wounded during the battle, seen at a specific house and near the Pennsylvania Monument.

Request for Assistance

UFORCOP is requesting assistance in expanding its database of ritualistic incidents, including information on ritualistic crimes, personal accounts of cult encounters, animal or human sacrifice, and suspected ritual grounds. All information is kept strictly confidential.

Further requests for assistance include reports of mysterious lights or UFO sightings near Nuclear Power Plants, Military Bases, or Airport Facilities, and information regarding Cattle Mutilations and UFO activity in Oklahoma. They are also seeking reports of paranormal activity around Indian Burial Grounds or areas where Indigenous peoples encamped in Pennsylvania, along with detailed maps. Additionally, they are looking for photographs of Military Trucks and Equipment from the Kecksburg / Fireball Incident of December 9, 1965.

UFORCOP is also seeking seasoned independent researchers to join their Cold Case Unit in Pennsylvania and other states.
