This information is difficult to absorb even knowing the history of the CIA’s MKULTRA projects.

There is a new documentary I've recently viewed on LINK TV re: Frank Olsen and Project Artichoke, well worth viewing, imo. There are many connections to the people and techniques dicussed in K. Sullivan's interview. It's related.

Edited to add this information is recent with additional info re: the case:


—The Family of Frank R. Olson, January 19, 2005


Code Name Artichoke
snip

We asked the Representatives and Senators to whom we wrote to help organize an inquiry at the Federal level to investigate and finally resolve this matter of Frank Olson's death, which has so-long troubled the Olson family and many other Americans as well, and which is so pertinent to contemporary policy discussions in this country.

Not a single Congressional representative or Senator responded to our letter, or even acknowledged receipt of it.

As for the CIA's alleged "cooperation" in investigating this matter in the 1970's, the New York Times characterized the package of documents the Agency provided to the family in 1975, which purported to account for what had happened to Frank Olson, as "a jumble of deletions, conflicting statements, unintelligible passages and such unexplained terms as the 'Artichoke Committee' and 'Project Bluebird' that tend to confuse more than enlighten." NY Times Article

This collection of CIA documents released to us directly from the hand of Director William Colby was about a hundred pages in length (not "thousands" as the CIA claims). The Agency said it was all they had on the incident.

The CIA then flat-out refused to help us understand those documents or to provide witnesses to explain them.
