Initial Field Report
Prepared by Special Agent Dana Scully.
Even after extensive research into the murders that took place at 10050 La Cienega Blvd, Los Angeles, CA, in 1969, I can find no credible reason to investigate this case.
(Attached Expense Report-- 2 coach tickets to LAX)
Arrived at 10050 La Cienega at 15:00 hrs. The house is a large, one-story ranch, most famous for the spree murders committed by Manson Family followers in the summer of 1969. It is currently rented by Michael Trent Reznor, age 27, a musician. Reznor filed the complaint with the X-Files division, claiming that unexplained forces caused malfunctioning of the house's oven. He also claims that the oven, in turn, caused a chicken being baked in it to become "super-fucking putrid." An examination of said poultry, which was preserved in the freezer, will be conducted by myself as soon as it thaws.
Agent Mulder and myself interviewed Reznor. During the interview (see attached transcripts) Reznor appeared withdrawn, depressed, offering only one-word answers to our questions. Agent Mulder, who was involved in 1990 in the VCS investigation of Reznor's purported death, tells me this is his normal demeanor.
Reznor, who does not himself cook, told us that the chicken was prepared by one Myra Ellen "Tori" Amos, age 28, also a musician. After six hours in the oven, the chicken was still raw, according to Reznor. He cannot account, or refuses to account, for his whereabouts during the six hours. Agent Mulder believes this is the same type of 'missing time' phenomena often associated with extraterrestrial abduction. I believe Reznor is hiding something.
We will be staying at the house for the duration of our investigation, so that Agent Mulder may set up devices to record and monitor electromagnetic field fluctuations. Due to the number of electronic devices in the house, I doubt he will find anything conclusive.
Examined oven. Natural gas-powered, seems to be in working condition. I satisfactorily heated left-over pizza in ten minutes.Both Agent Mulder and Reznor agreed that the pizza tasted perfectly normal. Pizza Hut Large Supreme, thin crust, six pieces.
We will conduct an interview with Ms. Amos tomorrow, as well as collect trace evidence from throughout the house.
