On February 4, 2009, a RIPS Team member was contacted through a co-worker that there was a spirit in her daughter's home in Minco, Oklahoma. The spirit of a man was terrifying the 2-1/2 year old granddaughter to the point of neither mom nor daughter sleeping at night. Because this case involved a child being threatened, we gathered up a quick response Team and headed south to Minco on February 7. During the half hour drive, a Team member in each of 2 separate vehicles had visions of the man.

Six R.I.P. Studies Team members arrived at the small home at 7:00 pm. While some Team members conducted a walk around of the property, other members met with the mother and daughter. While outside waiting on the front porch, 2 Team members felt severe pain to the left side of the head.

Upon entering the home and simple questioning from the Team, the small girl appeared to be very smart, quite intuitive and was able to give an excellent description of the spirit. She stated that he wore a plaid shirt, blue jeans and work boots. He wore a hat but she wasn't clear on what kind. When asked what color of the clothing, she stated "Red." Red shirt, red jeans, red boots. She described him as older, maybe 50-60. He had dark eyes and skin, brown hair and no facial hair. In his facial description, she also said that the left side of his head "was hurt". The Team made an assumption that with all the red clothing, he was covered in blood. Little wonder the girl was frightened.

The girl was taken away from the home by her grandmother in order for the investigation to take place.

Team members felt a sense of dizziness in the center of the house and Investigators also sensed the man's presence in the girls bedroom. One Investigator located the man as he was trying to hide in the corner of the bedroom. He did not want to communicate and promptly left the bedroom for another part of the house. When one Investigator entered the bedroom of the mother, his KII meter went off with a strong succession of spikes. At the same moment, a second Investigator entered the room and was immediately shown a vision by the spirit, causing her to collapse. When commanded to stop the visions, the spirit did so, only to show a second more powerful vision to the Investigator, this time spiking the KII meter for 6 seconds. In this vision, the man showed what happened when he died. His vision showed that he had suffered a heart attack while driving, striking something in the road, which then launched him through the windshield, landing on the left side of his face and sliding for a short distance on the pavement.

The Team now knew the man as a Native American Indian and also knew the manner of his death. It was now time for the remaining Team members to cleanse and bless the home and property.

Upon completion of the cleansing and blessing, RIPS Team members heped the man cross over.

The investigation was not complete until the small girl was brought back into the home for her own inspection. She peeked around corners and walked through the house without pause. She stated that she did not see the man anywhere. This was the conclusion that makes it all worth the effort.

In conclusion, we felt that the Native American man and the small girl had nothing in common other than the man had seen the girl someplace, knew that she could see him, and followed them home. His hopes that she could help him came true.

Months after the investigation, the mother and daughter report that there has been no activity since R.I.P. Studies Team members conducted the investigation. The small girl will occasionally mention the man as a memory, but all is good ion the home.
