Background

Debbie Jordan (later Jordan-Kauble) was the central figure in Budd Hopkins's 'Intruders: The Incredible Visitations at Copley Woods' (1987), appearing under the pseudonym 'Kathie Davis' to protect her family's privacy. The book, later adapted into a CBS television miniseries, centered on a reported 1983 abduction from her rural Indianapolis home and a claimed 1977 impregnation and 1983 encounter with a resulting hybrid child. In 1992 Jordan revealed her true identity and co-wrote 'Abducted!: The Story of the Intruders Continues' with her sister Kathy Mitchell (the book's 'Laura'), giving a first-person account of the case and its aftermath in their own words rather than through Hopkins's narration.
