History & Foundation
The USIA was founded in Washington D.C. by the Department of Justice in 1905 and later ran by Ramon Carlucci from 1925 until his retirement in 1947. A year later the USIA was expanding the agency into other regions of the United States. The USIA Office of Dallas was established in 1908 by the state government of Texas and also became the largest in the region. Then in 1948 Vincent Carlucci became Director of the USIA and was put in charge of the Eastbury Horror Case, which was a paranormal incident in Eastbury, Massachusetts.

The Elridge Commission oversaw the activities of the USIA and also investigated the cold cases of New England and also the abuse cases at the Rock Hampton Asylum that became a huge controversy over the years.

Keenes Virus Case
The Keenes virus started with a mutation of unknown viruses and then it was released accidentally from the Westwick Research Facility. Then in 1976 more than 30 people became ill with the disease and then a few died as the result of this accident.

Surprisingly the virus seemed to fade away after 5 people died from the infection. It is still uncertain how the virus was found and also how it had a short lifespan.

Nobody knows how the virus was released from the Westwick Facility but an investigation was launched by the USIA in the following months. They did find how the virus was contained and also the USIA concluded that the release of the virus was accidental.

However the rest of the infected with the virus were found to have later health problems and also complications.

The Eastbury Strangler
In 1988 a series of grisly murders near Eastbury University occurred when two unidentified women were found strangled by an unknown person near her campus. This serial killer is known as the Eastbury Strangler and then more killings happened with another unidentified woman who was later discovered by a couple who were walking around in the park.
