The death of Frank Olson on November 28, 1953 was a murder, not a suicide. 2. This is not an
LSD drug-experiment story, as it was represented in
1975. This is a
biological warfare story.
Frank Olson did not die because he was an experimental guinea pig who experienced a “
bad trip.” He died because of concern that he would divulge information concerning a highly classified CIA interrogation program called “ARTICHOKE” in the early 1950’s, and concerning the use of biological weapons by the United States in the Korean War.
3. The truth concerning the death of Frank Olson was concealed from the
Olson family as well as from the public in 1953. In 1975 a cover story regarding Frank Olson’s death was disseminated. At the same time a renewed coverup of the truth concerning this story was being carried out at the highest levels of government, including the White House. The new coverup involved the participation of persons serving in the
current Administration.
This is his son Eric's search for his father.
