MK-ULTRA THE DEADLY CIA BRAIN CONTROL PROGRAM THAT FUELED THE 60'S LSD COUNTERCULTURE (PT 1) HOW THEY WERE CAUGHT

from 1001 Heroes, Legends, Histories & Mysteries Podcast · host me

Beginning in the late 1950's our government's CIA, feeling that our enemies were leading us in the science of mind control, began a program of experimentation  on both volunteer and unknowing subjects using the hallucinatory drug LSD. The program grew out of control quickly, one result being their manufacturing and distributing free LSD throughout San Francisco and other cities , using CIA safehouses as distribution points, performing experimentts on unknowing prisoners and soldiers and on their own people. Some died and the deaths were covered up. In San Francisco and New York the "hippie" counterculture  bloomed  with the drug craze as a result. When a CIA snalyst threatened to expose the program he was "neutralized" by being tossed out of a hotel window in New York City to his death, which the CIA called suicide. .  In part two we'll let the victims tell their story, and we will reveal the results of the Congressional hearings which took place in 1974-5. Had it not been for journalists who actaully investigated the crimes without fear we would probably never have known. One of those men who told truth to power was my friend Dr.Stanton Friedman, Nuclear Physicist and staunch UFO advocate whom I interviewed here at 1001 Heroes, and to whom this story is dedicated.
