UFO expert Max Spiers was sacrificed by satanists who wanted to ‘rid him of demons’, his girlfriend believes. The dad of two, who went to school with film star Orlando Bloom, was found lifeless on a sofa in Poland days before he was due to give a talk on conspiracy theories.  He was said to have been vomiting “black liquid” before he died.  Authorities have insisted he died from natural causes but have yet to produce the results of a post-mortem exam.    His devastated girlfriend Sarah Adams, 31, from Kent, said the pair were due to get married and have a baby when he came back to England.  She claimed he was forced to call her in secret after being held against his will in Warsaw.  She told the Sun: “He was terrified, he wanted to leave.  “He said he was trying to get away from them.  “They were doing very dark black magic and satanic rituals to ‘de-programme’ him and get rid of demons.  “He said they had given him something that had put him in a
coma for two days.”

Vanessa Bates, Max’ mother, an English teacher from Canterbury, also suspects foul play.  She said: “These people [who Max was mixing with] appeared to be involved with some very dark and dangerous areas of the world.  “I was afraid that as he was gaining popularity and fame that perhaps someone would want him out of the way, i.e. not alive any longer.  “I believe somebody’s killed him.”  Just days before his death the extra-terrestrial expert sent a chilling text message to his mum, saying: “Your boy’s in trouble. If anything happens to me, investigate.”  Vanessa, 63, said: “Apparently, he had not suffered any obvious physical injuries but he could have been slowly poisoned, which is why the results of toxicology tests from his post-mortem are so important.”  Miles Johnson, who worked with Max’s, told Project Camelot : “A person has died here and I don’t think it’s good enough somebody who just took normal medication should end up vomiting, spewing black liquid, whatever it was. And then shortly after that, whatever length of time it was died.”

Fellow conspiracy theorist Craig Hewlett added: “If it wasn’t true what he talks about then why would they kill him? Healthy people don’t just get sick and die, they get poisoned .”  Originally from Canterbury, Max lived in America for a few years, but had returned to the city to stay with his mother, before jetting off to Poland.  Vanessa said: “He was making a name for himself in the world of conspiracy theorists and had been invited to speak at a conference in Poland in July.  “He was staying with a woman who he had not known for long and she told me how she found him dead on the sofa.  “But I think Max had been digging in some dark places and I fear that somebody wanted him dead.”

Max made a career out of investigating UFO sightings and alleged cover-ups.  More recently, he was said to be probing into the lives of well-known figures in politics, business and entertainment.His unexplained death, and its subsequent treatment by the authorities, has left many online followers convinced he was killed by government agents.  Conspiracy theorists have long been convinced that UFO chasers who get too close to the truth are “bumped off” by the secret services or so-called men in black.  On one website, Project Camelot, a blogger wrote: “The entire circumstances are suspicious and I urge everyone to encourage the release of details about what really happened and call for an autopsy.”  Vanessa, an English teacher, also buys into the theories.  She said: “Max was a very fit man who was in good health and yet he apparently just died suddenly on a sofa.  “All I have is a death certificate from the Polish authorities that it was from natural causes, but no post-mortem was done so how can they tell that?  “They are also refusing to release any paperwork about it to me because, absurdly, I don’t have his written permission.”

Max was buried in Canterbury cemetery after Vanessa arranged to have his body flown home a week after his death.  A post-mortem examination was carried out by a pathologist in east Kent, but Vanessa says that more than two months later she still does not know the result, or whether there will be an inquest.   She added: “He has a brother, Josh, and sister, Becky, who are both devastated, as are his two boys. We all want answers to this and I will continue to fight to get to the truth.”  The North East Kent coroner’s office would only confirm the death was at the “very early” stages of investigation.  Friends of Max Spiers have set up a memorial page to pay for his funeral.
