1961 – Michael Murphy and
Richard Price establish a residential community in California's Big Sur area
that will become the Esalen Institute. It
will help
to mid-wife much of what will come to be known as the ‘human-potential movement’,
delving into all manner of psychological experimentation. Esalen will become a popular
New Age center, where many of the people who will be significant to the 1960s
counterculture will pass through.
1961 (August 8) – Henry
(Andrija) Puharich and Joseph Lawrence receive a patent (US
Patent #2,995,633) described as a means for converting audible signals to
electrical signals and conveying them to viable nerves of the facial system.
These two men will be favorably named within the channeled communications
published by Carla Rueckert, Don Elkins, and Jim McCarty in 1984 as the Ra
Material or The Law of One, which will become one of the
more popular doctrines within the New Age movement.

online book, Terrorism and the Illuminati, by David Livingstone)
Two
days later, on September 21, Betty contacts Pease Air Force
Base to report their UFO encounter, but withholds some of the details. On
September 22, Major Paul W. Henderson telephones back for a more detailed
interview. Henderson will conclude that this was a misidentified sighting and
forward his report to Project Bluebook. Days later, Betty will find a book on
UFOs at the library, written by retired Marine Corps Major Donald E. Keyhoe,
who is also the head of NICAP, a civilian UFO research group. She writes to him
a few days later and relates all of the details of the incident, stating that
she and Barney are considering using hypnosis to help them recall the event
better. At about this same time, Betty begins to have a series of very vivid
dreams for five nights straight before they suddenly stop. On October 21,
Walter N. Webb, an astronomer and NICAP member, is sent to meet with the Hills,
and conducts a six-hour interview. Barney tells him that he has developed a
mental block about certain parts of the event that he feels he doesn’t want to
remember.
After this interview, Betty begins to
write down the details of her dreams. In one of them, she and Barney encounter
a roadblock and then men surround their car. She loses consciousness but
struggles to regain it. She realizes that she is being forced by two small men
to walk in a forest at night, and she sees Barney walking behind her, although
he seemed to be in a trance or sleepwalking. The men wore matching uniforms,
with military-style caps. They appeared nearly human but had a grayish pallor
and bluish lips. In the dreams, they are led up a ramp into a disc-shaped
metallic craft, and then they are separated and taken to separate rooms. Betty
and the men with her are then joined by another man, who she describes as
having a calm and pleasant demeanor, but with a less than perfect command of
the English language. She undergoes an examination, and hair, fingernail, and
skin flake samples are taken. Next, she has a long needle inserted into her
navel, which causes pain. A wave of the examiner’s hand dispels the pain. After
the examination, she is handed a book with rows of strange symbols on it that
she is told she can keep. She asks where these people are from, and is shown a
large star map on the wall. Finally, in the dream, the Hill’s are escorted from
the craft, but a disagreement starts about letting Betty have the book, and it’s
decided that it be taken back since she should forget the entire incident. The book
is taken back and the Hills are returned to their car.
On November 25, 1962, the Hills will again
be interviewed at length by NICAP members. This time the interviewers are C.D.
Jackson and Robert E. Hohman. The two interviewers point out that, although the
drive should have only taken about four hours, the Hills did not arrive at home
until seven hours after their departure. A period of missing time is realized,
and so hypnosis is suggested to retrieve the memories of whatever events took
place. Barney is apprehensive, but agrees. Barney is seeing a psychiatrist, and
asks him about hypnosis. He is referred to a Dr. Benjamin Simon of Boston. They
will undergo their first hypnosis session on January 4, 1964, and the sessions
will continue until June 6, 1964. Each of the Hills will undergo separate
sessions and have amnesia reinstated, so as not to allow them to influence each
other’s memories. Barney will recall memories similar to those of Betty’s
dreams, in which he is also given a medical examination. Betty will also recall
events similar to her dreams, but with notable differences. The capture and
release, onboard technology, appearance of their captors, and general sequence
of events were all different to her dream memories. However, both of the Hill’s
hypnotic recalls will be quite similar. It should be noted that the similarities
of hypnotic recall could reflect a scripted hypnotic memory given to both,
while the dreams reflect a more accurate truth. Betty will also be given a
post-hypnotic suggestion to draw the star map that she had seen, which she
does. In the end, Dr. Simon will conclude that Barney’s recollections were
influenced by Betty’s remembered dream experiences, but the Hills will both
continue to believe that they had been abducted by the occupants of a UFO. They
will not seek publicity outside of talking to friends and interested parties,
but due to the extraordinary nature of their story, it will be picked up by a
newspaper reporter and come to the attention of John G. Fuller, who will write
the book, The Interrupted Journey, depicting the Hill’s experiences. The
book will show a drawing of the star map that Betty drew, and a picture of an
alien with wraparound eyes that Barney drew. This will be the first published
depiction of an alien with wraparound eyes.
In 1968, a woman by the name of Marjorie
Fish will create a three-dimensional representation of Betty Hill’s star map
drawing in an attempt to discover what star system it might represent. She will
use the 1969 Gliese Star Catalogue as a reference, and after studying thousands
of possible points of perspective, will find that the map matches most closely
to the Zeta Reticuli star formation.

MEMORANDUM
FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT:
Project MKULTRA, Subproject No.94
The
purpose of this subproject is to provide a continuation of activities in
selected species of animals. Miniaturized stimulating electrode implants in specific brain center areas will be
utilized.
Initial
biological work on techniques and brain locations essential to providing
conditioning and control of animals has been completed. The feasibility of
remote control of activities in several species of animals has been
demonstrated. The present investigations are directed toward improvement of
techniques and will provide a precise mapping of the useful brain centres in
selected species. The ultimate objective of this research is to provide an
understanding of the mechanisms involved in the directional control of animals
and to provide a system suitable for (deleted word) application.
The
word that has been deleted is undoubtedly ‘human’.
1961 –
At about this time, Carl Franzoni goes into
business selling breast pumps and penis enlargers out of Hollywood.
1961 – Planning for the ARPANET communications
network begins.
1962 – Andrija Puharich publishes
Beyond Telepathy, in which he describes
his research into psychic phenomena and offers his theories on the subject.
1962 – Timothy
Leary publishes a paper entitled How to Change Behavior. It is based on LSD experiments he conducted a year earlier at the Concord
Correctional Facility in Concord, Massachusetts, which was funded by the Uris Brothers
Foundation in New York City, under the auspices of Harvard University. In the
paper, he explains what a powerful tool LSD is for changing ways of thinking and
living.
1962 - LSD appears
on American streets for the first time.
1962 – Beginning
this year, the Rand Corporation of Santa Monica,
California begins a four-year experiment in LSD, peyote, and marijuana.
According to a 1962 Rand Abstract, W.H. McGlothlin conducts a preparatory study
on The Long-Lasting Effects of LSD on
Certain Attitudes in Normals: An Experimental Proposal. The following year,
McGlothlin will conduct a year-long experiment on thirty human guinea pigs,
called Short-Term Effects of LSD on
Anxiety, Attitudes and Performance. The study will conclude that LSD
improves emotional attitudes and resolves anxiety problems.
1962 – Helen Schucman and
William Thetford co-author a paper entitled The
Personality Theory of John Gittinger, which is published by the Human Ecology Fund, a
CIA front.
1963 (August) – Ken Kesey
moves from his residence at Stanford University to La Honda, California, where
he begins throwing parties he calls ‘Acid Tests’, which involve music (such as his favorite
band, The Warlocks, later known as the Grateful Dead), black lights,
fluorescent paint, strobes, and other ‘psychedelic’ effects, plus, of course,
LSD.
1962 (September) – Helen
Schucman co-authors a paper with David R. Saunders,
which relates to Gittinger's Personality Assessment System (PAS). Saunders is
involved in secret personality profiling investigations for MKULTRA. At this
time, they also write a paper with William Thetford on
Gittinger’s PAS. One of Schucman’s colleagues at Columbia University is a man
named Herbert Spiegel, who is a recognized
expert in hypnotism and brainwashing. Spiegel is teaching courses in hypnosis
and is involved with the famous case of ‘Sybil’, an MPD victim. Because ‘Sybil’
is easily hypnotizable, he uses her for demonstration purposes in his classes.

1962 – Influenced largely by Aldous Huxley, the Esalen Institute is founded in Big Sur, California by Michael Murphy and Dick Price. It is an alternative
educational center devoted to the exploration of what Aldous Huxley calls the
“human potential”, the world of unrealized human capacities that lies beyond
the imagination.
Apart from its beautiful surroundings, Esalen
will soon become known for its blend of East/West philosophies, its
experiential/didactic workshops, and the steady influx of philosophers,
psychologists, artists, and religious thinkers
1962 – The first laser hologram
of 3-D objects. These holograms produce images with clarity and
realistic depth but require laser light to view the holographic image. Hologram
technologies might explain many alleged UFO sightings.
1962 –
At about this time, Vito Paulekas takes up
residence at the famous Log Cabin in Laurel
Canyon, while still maintaining his studio. This expansive residence will soon
become a hang out and crash pad for members of his dance troupe, which consists
mostly of promiscuous young girls. Anyone else needing a place to crash for the
night will be welcome at the Log Cabin as well. Over the years, many future
musical icons will pass through on their way to the top, stopping in to party,
play music, and indulge in free sex with Vito’s young female dancers.
By this time, Vito’s dance troupe,
consisting of about 35 people, is going to various Hollywood nightclubs a few
nights a week to show off their unique dance styles while donning Szou’s
equally unique fashion designs. These new dance styles and fashions will soon become
symbolic of the newly arising psychedelic ‘hippie’ look, as much as will the
new rock ‘n’ roll bands that the troupe will begin luring audiences to. The female
dancers will inevitably be a big part of the attraction to these clubs early on
– particularly in drawing Hollywood’s elite – and they will also help to popularize
a number of fledgling rock bands that will go on to become world famous,
including the Byrds, the Doors, Buffalo Springfield, etc. Many of the members
of these early bands who will become big names come from military families. At this early point, however, they’re only dancing to local
black R&B bands in clubs off Sunset Strip, since there are no clubs on
Sunset Boulevard at this time and no white bands in Los Angeles.
1962 – 90% of homes in the USA have television
sets.
One
of the people that District Attorney
Jim Garrison will subpoena for questioning during his investigation into the
assassination will be ex-OSS officer Fred Crisman, who was involved in the
Maury Island UFO incident in 1947.
In the three years following the
assassination, 18 material witnesses will perish. In the time leading up to
1979, when the last of the Kennedy investigations will end, over 100 witnesses
will have died. Interestingly, most of these deaths will coincide with one of
the four main investigations.
1963
– At about this time, Carl Franzoni meets Vito Paulekas through an artist/body painter named
Mary Mancini who works out of Vito’s studio. When Carl sees what Vito has going
on he decides to give up his business selling breast pumps to join Vito’s dance
troupe. He begins hanging around with Vito and his dance troupe and just
watches for the first three to six months before actually taking part as a
dancer.
1963 – At about this time, Robert DeGrimston (real name Robert Moore) and his soon-to-be wife Mary DeGrimston (real name Mary Ann MacLean), have
been receiving advanced training at the Church of Scientology in London,
England. While they are in the process of applying a form of hypnotherapy used
in Scientology to ‘cure’ psychoses that have purportedly been incurred in past
lives, Mary Ann begins channeling an entity that begins giving Robert
instructions in ancient mysteries. In 1996 they will decide to leave
Scientology and create their own therapy group called Compulsions Analysis,
which will soon after be renamed to The Process Church
of the Final Judgment. They will use the underlying methods applied in
Scientology to create a cult that centers on apocalyptic beliefs and uses sex and
fear as control mechanisms. During its existence they will seek ties with
various counterculture icons, including Mick Jagger, Marianne Faithful, Allen
Ginsberg, Timothy Leary, and Abbie Hoffman. Mary Ann will prove to be the real
force behind this cult, with Robert acting as a mere figurehead. She is very
authoritarian and has a deep interest in Nazi ideologies. Their anarchistic
philosophies will be adopted by future serial killer Charles Manson, who will
become one of their earliest acolytes and set up his own cult.
Within the larger organization of the
Process Church, and at the cutting edge of the movement, smaller ‘families’ of
Satanists called ‘Chingons’ will develop. To join a Chingon family, the
Processan must enter a long period of satanic worship that reportedly includes
blood rituals and sacrifice. Chingons formally convene twice each month (under
a new moon and a full moon) under the supervision of a ‘Grand Chingon’ to
summon the ancient pagan god who sponsors their particular family. The pagan
god speaks to the group through one of the gathered cult members, who serve as
a medium at the black mass.
Robert
DeGrimston is a former cavalry officer and the grandson of a British Vicar.
MacLean, a one-time prostitute who was connected to the Profumo scandal, reportedly
believes that she is the reincarnation of Nazi propagandist Josef Goebbels.
(See online book, Programmed
to Kill, by David McGowan)
1963 – The Brotherhood of Eternal Love is founded by Dr. Timothy Leary and Richard
Alpert at Harvard University. This cult is very drug-oriented and will
become involved in producing and supplying a variety of illicit drugs to
America’s youth in the years ahead. Leary had been conducting a
research project at the university to study psilocybin, which had been approved
by Dr. Henry A. Murray, the same man who had recently
conducted psychological mind-control experiments on Ted Kaczynski.
After being fired from his post at
Harvard this same year as a result of experimenting with LSD, Leary moves onto
the estate of a man named William Mellon Hitchcock (the
grandson of the founder of Gulf Oil) in Millbrook, New York, where he will
continue his drug experiments for several years before he (and his cult) moves
to Laguna Beach, California, and begins spreading his message among American
youth to “tune in, turn on, and drop out”. The Mellon family has
extensive ties to the US intelligence community, as well as to Richard Helms,
who will be Director of the CIA from 1966 to 1973.
By 1969, the Brotherhood will have become
the largest supplier of hashish and LSD in the USA. One of Leary’s Brotherhood members
will be Ronald Hadley Stark (who will join in
that year, bringing along enough liquid LSD to produce up to 10 million doses),
later identified as a CIA operative who had access to unlimited public funds and numerous high-level
contacts in business and government throughout the world. Stark will be
instrumental in funding and setting up the Brotherhood’s international drug
smuggling/manufacturing enterprises. He will also be closely associated with
the founders of The Process Church, Robert and Mary Ann DeGrimston.
1964 (January 15) – After
visiting the Whisky à Go Go discotheque in Paris the year before, Elmer Valentine
sells his shares in P.J.’s and opens the soon to be world-famous Whisky-A-Go-Go nightclub on Sunset Strip. He puts a
girl DJ in a suspended glass cage who plays records between live acts, and
hires ‘go-go dancers’ to act as eye-candy, dressed in what will become the
trademark white boots and short fringed skirts. Johnny Rivers, who Elmer had
noticed was drawing a following at other clubs, is offered a contract, making
him the headlining act at the Whisky for the first year.
The
novelty of rock 'n' roll on the Strip, plus the added novelty of Elmer’s go-go dancers,
will soon attract both national media attention and Hollywood
celebrities. The Whisky will quickly become the place to go for Hollywood
swingers. Within months of the Whisky's debut, Life magazine will do a write up on it, Jack Paar will broadcast an
episode of his weekly program from there, and Steve McQueen and Jayne Mansfield
will install themselves as regulars. Future Manson Family member, Charles ‘Tex’
Watson, will also become a regular for a while. The Whisky will quickly become
the most famous nightclub on Sunset Strip.
Elmer’s
silent partners are Phil Tanzini, Shelly Davis, and attorney Theodore Flier.
His secretary/booking agent is Gail Sloatman, Frank Zappa’s future wife. Gail
comes from a long line of career Naval officers, including her father, who
spent his life working on classified nuclear weapons research for the US Navy.
Gail herself had once worked as a secretary for the Office of Naval Research
and Development. As a child, she had attended the same Naval kindergarten as
Jim Morrison, who also comes from a military family. Jim’s fledgling band the
Doors will soon get a regular booking at the Whisky.
Vito Paulekas’
dancers are a fixture on the Sunset Strip scene from the very moment that the
new clubs open their doors to the public, and they are, by all accounts, treated
like royalty by the club owners. As John Hartmann, proprietor of the
Kaleidoscope Club, will later acknowledge, he “would let Vito and his dancers into the Kaleidoscope free every week
because they attracted people. They were really hippies, and so we had to have
them. They got in free pretty much everywhere they went. They blessed your
joint. They validated you.”
Vito
and their group of about thirty-five dancers are the first hippies in Hollywood, and apparently the first hippies
anywhere. Calling themselves Freaks, they lived a semi-communal life and
engaged in sex orgies and free-form dancing whenever they can. They will become
more and more popular at the clubs as each club owner vies for their attendance.
1964 – Vito Paulekas offers his studio as rehearsal space for
David Crosby’s
fledgling rock band the Byrds. Soon after, the band is playing at Ciro’s on
Sunset Strip, with Vito’s dance troupe (mostly promiscuous young girls) tagging
along. Soon many of Hollywood’s finest are regularly attending as well.
1964 (May) – At about this time, Frank Zappa
and Carl Franzoni first meet at Ben Frank's, a
popular coffee shop and musician/freak hangout on Sunset Strip. At the time,
Frank is playing in a local band called the Soul Giants.
1964 – CIA Director Richard Helms states
in a memo to the Warren Commission:
Cybernetics [or computer theory] can be used in the
moulding of a child's character, the inculcation of knowledge and techniques,
the amassing of experience, the establishment of social behaviour patterns all
functions which can be summarised as control of the growth processes of the
individual.
The
wording of this memo suggests that this had already been successfully achieved,
and that children were used in the experiments.
(See Mind Control, World Control, by Jim Keith)
1964 – By this year, the
use of occult themes and rituals has become an
accepted part of psychological warfare planning.
The Special Operations Research Office (SORO) at the American University
prepares a paper at the request of the US Army on Witchcraft, Sorcery, Magic and Other Psychological Phenomena and Their
Implications on Military and Paramilitary Operations in the Congo. The
paper is authored by James R. Price and Paul Jureidini.
1964 – In
the summer of this year, beat novelist Ken Kesey (author
of One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest) launches a yearlong cross-country
trip in a Day-Glo painted school bus filled with friends
called the ‘Merry Pranksters’. They will tour
the country, distributing thousands of free doses of LSD
along the way (and
often without forewarning the receiving parties), building up local distribution
connections, and establishing the pretext for a high volume of publicity on
behalf of the still minuscule hippie ‘counterculture’. On a stop in New York,
Kesey will be introduced to Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg, who will introduce
him to Timothy Leary. By 1967, the Kesey cult will have handed out enough LSD
that a sizable drug population will have emerged, centered in the
Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco.
This same year, Admiral Morrison’s son Jim
arrives in Los Angeles to attend UCLA’s film school. Jim, having no previous
musical talent or experience, will soon drop out and become one of the biggest
rock icons to emerge out of California’s Laurel Canyon area
over the next few years.
Jim Morrison, growing up in a military
family, has a few things in common with many other rock icons who will emerge
out of Laurel Canyon in the next few years. As a child, he attended Naval
kindergarten with Adelaide (Gail) Sloatman, the wife of Laurel Canyon resident
Frank Zappa. Zappa’s father is a chemical warfare specialist who worked at both
Edgewood Arsenal and Edwards AFB, where Zappa had spent his youth. His wife
Gail comes from a long line of career Naval officers, and her father spent his
life working on classified nuclear weapons research for the US Navy (she will
tell an interviewer that she had “heard voices all [her] life”). Jim
Morrison also attended the same Alexandria, Virginia high school as two other
future Laurel Canyon luminaries – John Phillips and Cass Elliott of the Mamas
and the Papas. Phillips is the son of a US Marine Corp Captain and spent his
youth in a series of elite military prep schools in the Washington, DC area,
culminating in an appointment to the prestigious US Naval Academy at Annapolis.
David Crosby was another military brat who will emerge out of Laurel Canyon in
the years ahead, his father having been a World War II military intelligence
officer and whose family tree is deeply rooted in American politics all the way
back to the founding fathers.
Other people with military backgrounds becoming famous rock icons in the next
few years include Gram Parsons, Joni Mitchell, Stephen Stills, Jimi Hendrix, etc.
Jim Morrison will essentially arrive on the scene in Laurel Canyon as a fully
developed rock star, complete with a backing band, stage persona, and an
impressive collection of songs – enough, in fact, to fill the first few albums
– and all of this in spite of the fact that Morrison had no previous interest
in music. Morrison’s music will have a peculiarly mystical and hypnotic quality
to it, and he will name his band, the Doors, after Aldous Huxley’s book, The
Doors of Perception, which details the psychedelic experience of mescaline.
Jim’s music will reflect his very close familiarity with the mind-expanding
qualities of hallucinogenic drugs.
Hidden deep within Laurel Canyon is
a top-secret military compound called Lookout Mountain
Laboratory, which will not be publicly known about for decades to come.
Built in 1941 as an air defense facility, it occupies two-and-a-half secluded
acres of land surrounded by an electric fence. By 1947, the
facility featured a fully operational and self-contained movie studio. With
100,000 square feet of floor space, it includes sound stages, screening rooms,
film processing labs, editing facilities, an animation department, and
climate-controlled film vaults. It also has underground parking, a helicopter
pad and a bomb shelter. Over its lifetime, the studio produced classified
motion pictures for the military. Officially, the facility was run by the US
Air Force and did nothing more than process footage of atomic and nuclear bomb
tests. However, it was clearly equipped to do far more than just process film.
There are indications that Lookout Mountain Laboratory had an advanced research
and development department that was on the cutting edge of new film
technologies. Such technological advances as 3-D effects were apparently first
developed at the Laurel Canyon site. Hollywood luminaries like John Ford, Jimmy
Stewart, Howard Hawks, Ronald Reagan, Bing Crosby, Walt Disney, and Marilyn
Monroe were given clearance to work at the facility on undisclosed projects.
The facility is still in operation when Laurel Canyon becomes the originating
point for a great deal of musical talent that will seem to spring up out of
nowhere in the next few years.

Mostly True Story of Laurel Canyon and the Birth of the Hippie Generation, by David McGowan)
(See online book, Programmed
to Kill, by David McGowan)
1964 (November) – At about this time, the legendary Ciro’s
nightclub on Sunset Strip begins undergoing extensive renovations.
Ciro’s was first opened in 1940 by Billy Wilkerson, an associate of mobster
Bugsy Siegel. The upscale club had flourished for the first twenty years of its
existence, with a clientele that regularly included Hollywood royalty and
organized crime figures. Now it was about to become a rock ‘n’ roll venue where
many future rock icons will be discovered. Interestingly, many of these future
rock icons come from military families.
1965 (March) – The US military starts sending
soldiers into Vietnam to fight their new war.
The military draft is in full force, and 25,000 soldiers will be sent over
within the first month. By the end of the year, US troop strength will surge to
200,000. Many American youth will seek ways to avoid being drafted.
1965 (March 26) – Ciro’s nightclub reopens just
in time to host the very first club appearance of the Byrds (David Crosby’s band),
with Vito Paulekas’ dancers there to lure in the
audience. All the Hollywood stars are there. Terry Melcher, a young Columbia
Records executive, will soon sign the
Byrds to a record deal. Melcher will later be hounded by Charles Manson for a
record deal.
1965 (April) – At about
this time, Elmer Valentine opens a second soon-to-be-wildly-popular nightclub on Sunset
Strip, called The Trip. He will also open the Roxy in the following year.
1965 (May) – The Byrds release their first
recorded song, Mr. Tambourine Man. It
goes to #1 on the charts.
1965 – The Findhorn Foundation is
established in Scotland, at a location adjacent to the Kingloss Royal Air Force
Base. Eileen Caddy, who for some years has been
hearing a voice that claims to be God, becomes their primary channeler. She is
surrounded at Findhorn by people who have ties to British Intelligence. People
visiting Findhorn will notice a vibrant field of energy that blankets the
immediate area.
(See file, A Urantia, 9/11Truth.org &
CIA Mind Control Technology, by Alex Constantine)
1965 – Ken Kesey and his
Merry Pranksters, having returned from their psychedelic bus trip across the
USA, return to the San Francisco Bay Area and begin
throwing more ‘Acid Test’ parties.
1965 –The
Department of Defense (DOD) discovers that the American
embassy in Moscow is being purposely irradiated by the Russians with
massive levels of microwaves.
1965 – The Pentagon starts Project
PANDORA, which will focus its research on the behavioral and biological
effects of low-level microwaves. Dr. Ross Adey
will be involved in this project.
1965 – After a series of vivid dreams in which she
communicates with a character that claims to be Jesus, Helen
Schucman confides this to her employer, William
Thetford. Soon after, she begins hearing the voice in her head while
awake, and over the next seven years this voice will dictate to her what will
be published as A Course In Miracles (published in 1975), which she will write down in
shorthand while in a fully conscious state. This book will gain a cultic
following over the years. Like Eileen Caddy at Findhorn, she describes the
voice she hears as being just at the audible/sub-audible threshold.
In spite of her own
doubts about the origins of the voice, she is encouraged to believe it by
Thetford, who helps with compiling and writing the material that will become A
Course in Miracles. Although unknown at this time, Thetford is working for
the CIA under its MKULTRA program.
1965 (September) – At about this time, John and Michelle
Phillips, who have been living in near destitution in New York City,
move to Los Angeles after they learn about the success of the Byrds. They
already know two of the band members, and meet Hollywood nightclub owner Elmer Valentine soon after they arrive. Within a month
they have a record contract and are quickly catapulted into fame as well.
1966 (February) - The Mamas and the Papas
release their first single, California
Dreamin’, which becomes an instant hit. Its message will help to turn
California into a Mecca for American youth. By May they will release their
first album, If You Can Believe Your Eyes
and Ears, which will reach #1 in the country with two top 5 singles.
1966 (April) -
G. Gordon Liddy raids the Millbrook estate where
Timothy Leary is living.
1966
(April 30) –
Anton LaVey and underground filmmaker Kenneth Anger co-found the Church
of Satan in San Francisco. From its inception,
LaVey's group will include an inordinate number of police, military and
intelligence personnel. One of these will be Michael Aquino of the US Army, who
will soon become a leading member, second only to LaVey himself. Such Hollywood
celebrities as Sammy Davis Jr. and Jayne Mansfield will also become members. Kenneth
Anger will also have personal associations with such people as Tennessee Williams, Keith Richards, Jimmy Page, Mick Jagger, and
Marianne Faithfull.
For the past few years, LaVey has been holding what he
terms ‘midnight magic seminars’ at his home on Friday evenings, lecturing on a
wide variety of traditional occult and supernatural subjects that he had
familiarized himself with over the years. These Friday night meetings had
attracted a core of loyal followers who make up his early church members. These
seminars will continue as part of the church’s usual weekly activities, with the
practice of ceremonial magic rituals added to the roster as well. Most of
LaVey’s rituals and doctrines will consist of a hodgepodge of borrowed material
from past occultists, along with his own added inventions. LaVey
is also putting out a small newsletter for subscribing members, called From the Devil’s Notebook, which will be
renamed The Cloven Hoof in 1969.
(See online book, The Church of Satan, by Michael Aquino)
1966 (May 28) – Sirhan Sirhan
attends his first meeting of the Ancient
Mystical Order Rosae Crucis (AMORC) at the
society’s Akhnaton Lodge in Pasadena, and is the subject of an experiment in
sensory perception, sitting blindfolded while attempting to identify objects by
touch.
1966 (June) – Frank Zappa and The Mothers of
Invention release their first album, Freak
Out!. The album liner notes dedicate the opening track, Hungry Freaks Daddy to Carl “Capt. Fuck”
Franzoni. Frank’s manager is a man named Herb Cohen, a former US Marine who had
recently arrived in Los Angeles from New York and who had allegedly been
involved in illegal arms deals in the past.
1966 (August 1) – Charles
Whitman, a former Marine, begins the day by stabbing both his mother and
his wife to death, then drives around passing bad cheques and buying guns and
ammo, which he packs into a footlocker with food and supplies before donning
khaki overalls and driving to the University of Texas in Austin where he was previously
enrolled. Sitting at the top of the campus’ bell tower after barricading
himself in, he proceeds to randomly pick people off using a sniper rifle,
killing 17 and wounding 32 before he is finally shot and killed by police.

grew up in an authoritarian home where his father was both physically and
emotionally abusive. He was extremely intelligent. Due to his father’s
enthusiasm for guns, he became proficient with them at an early age. After
graduating from high school in 1959, Whitman enlisted in the Marines and served
an 18 month tour of duty at Guantanamo Bay. After his stint, he
entered college on a military scholarship. By 1961, he was showing signs of
what was to come. He had mentioned to a friend how easy it would be to hold off
an army from atop the university’s bell tower. After finishing college in 1963,
he returned to duty and eventually got into trouble, causing him to serve some
time in military prison and being demoted from colonel to private. At this
point he began keeping a journal. He was honorably discharged at the end of
1964, and enrolled at the University of Texas. He began to abuse amphetamine
and started getting severe headaches. The night before the rampage, he wrote
out a suicide note that states in part, “lately (I cannot recall when it
started) I have been a victim of many unusual and irrational thoughts.” A
comment in a university doctor’s medical file that Whitman previously had been
seeing will state, “This massive, muscular youth seemed to be oozing with
hostility [...] that something seemed to be happening to him and that he didn't
seem to be himself.” Whitman also told the doctor that he had been having
thoughts of going up into the tower and shooting people.
1966 (September) – Vito
Paulekas and his dance troupe are the
featured at a Frank Zappa and the Mothers of
Invention concert at LA's Shrine Auditorium.
1966 (September 20) – The San
Francisco Oracle, an underground newspaper run out of the Haight-Ashbury
district, publishes its first issue. The Oracle will run for less than two
years, eventually reaching as many as half a million readers in the San
Francisco area during its height. Writers for
the Oracle will include Allen Ginsberg, Alan Watts, and William Burroughs as
well as interviews with Timothy Leary, etc. The publication will promote the
virtues of drug use and present New Age ideas about spirituality and the
occult.
1966 (October) – The Brotherhood of Eternal Love becomes a legal
corporation in the State of California. The brotherhood is also granted
tax-exempt status on the basis that it claims to be a religious organization.
1966 (November 29) – Harold Puthoff from NSA and Ingo
Swann from the UN both enroll in Scientology,
supposedly unknown to each other. Within five years they will both
be at the highest levels of Scientology and working together under secret
contract with CIA to develop remote viewing for military intelligence.
1966 (December 23) – Vito
Paulekas’ three-year-old son Godot dies
under suspicious circumstances. The parents are unconcerned enough to continue
with their plans to go out on the town for the evening.
1967 (February) – Life magazine runs an article (The Ping is The Thing, pg. 31) in which Anton LaVey
and the Church of Satan are introduced to the mass public. Soon after this, the
Los Angeles Times and San Francisco Chronicle will give LaVey
further free publicity and dub him ‘The Black Pope’. He will also get free publicity
through numerous other articles in popular magazines such as Look, McCall's, Newsweek, and Time, as well as various men's
magazines, and he will appear on several television talk shows, including The Tonight Show and Donahue.
1967 – By this time, Vito Paulekas’ dance
troupe is splitting the rent for the Log Cabin in Laurel Canyon with staff from the semi-occult
hippie publication The Oracle. There are about three dozen people
living and partying there. The Oracle
is a San Francisco-based publication with intelligence ties that specialize in
pitching psychedelic occultism to impressionable youth.
1967
-
Robert
and Mary Ann DeGrimston and other members of their Process
Church descend upon San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury district, taking lease of a
property located at 407 Cole Street. They are situated close to Anton LeVey’s
Church of Satan, as well as the local Chapter of the OTO. Recruiters for the
Process Church sign on such members as ‘Brother Ely’, a member of the Gypsy
Jokers biker gang. One of the High Priests of the cult at this point is a
former Israeli Mossad agent with
strong links to the international intelligence community. Dressed in black, German shepherds at the leash, and speaking
about worshipping Jehovah, Lucifer, and Satan, they will become a common sight
in California.

1967 (March 21) – Future
cult leader and mass murderer Charles Manson is
released from Terminal Island federal prison. Prior to his last
conviction, he had been running a prostitution ring. From April to July, he will take up residence in
San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury
district at 636 Cole Street, two blocks from the headquarters of the Process
Church. Manson soon becomes involved with the Process Church, (allegedly) reaching
the fourth level of initiation before breaking off and establishing his own offshoot.
David Berkowitz, the future ‘Son of Sam’ serial killer,
will also become involved with the Process Church or one of its offshoots.
At around this same time, future Manson
Family members Susan Atkins and Bobby Beausoleil are involved with Anton LaVey
and his Church of Satan, joining Manson’s group sometime afterwards.
During
this time, Manson is required to report regularly to his parole officer, Dr. Roger Smith, who by January 1968 will be heading the Amphetamine Research
Project based at the Haight-Ashbury Free Medical
Clinic. This clinic is a NIMH project designed to observe and supervise
the first large-scale drug addiction of white teenagers, thousands of whom are
the clinic's clients. It is set up by Dr. Gregory Bateson. Roger Smith is
officially commissioned to scientifically investigate the effects that various
kinds of drugs have on addicts that are being served by the clinic. The
clinic’s director, Dr. David E. Smith (no relation), has collaborated in
another NIMH project to study the behavior of children in communes, and is an
expert on the creation of violent anti-social personalities in hippie or cult
commune environments. The infamous MKULTRA mind-control doctor, Louis Jolyin
West, is also living in Haight-Ashbury at this time. One of the staff volunteers
for Roger Smith’s drug treatment program who helped to get it a $25,000 grant
is Inez Folger, the mother of future Manson victim Abigail Folger.

1967 (June 16-18) – The Monterey Pop Festival, the first major pop-rock music event in history, draws between
20,000 and 90,000 people over three days. The festival is put together in just
seven weeks by musician John Phillips and record
producer Lou Adler, and performers will include the
Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Who, Ottis Redding, Jefferson Airplane, The Grateful
Dead, Eric Burdon and the Animals, The Byrds, Janis Joplin, Buffalo Springfield
(with David Crosby), and the Mamas and the Papas, among others. The festival
will propel many of the featured bands into stardom overnight. It will be the subject of
an acclaimed documentary movie entitled Monterey Pop, consisting of footage taken throughout the three days
of performances. The screening of the film in theaters nationwide will help
raise the festival to mythic status, rapidly swelling the ranks of would-be
festival-goers looking for the next festival, and inspiring new entrepreneurs
to stage more such festivals around the country.
1967 (August) – Future serial killer John Wayne Gacy commits his first known sexual assault upon a teenage boy. The youth is the
15-year-old son of a fellow Jaycee. Gacy lures the youth to his house upon the
promise of showing him pornographic films. Gacy then plies the youth with alcohol
and persuades him to perform oral sex on him. Several more youths will be
sexually abused over the following months, including one whom Gacy will encourage
to sleep with his wife before blackmailing the youth into performing oral sex
upon him. He will be charged and convicted of sodomy in the next year.
At
this time, Gacy is deeply involved in a seedier side of Jaycee life that exists
in Waterloo, Iowa, one that involves wife swapping, prostitution, pornography
and drugs. He also sets up a ‘club’ in his basement, where he allows his
employees to drink alcohol and play pool. Although he employs teenagers of both
sexes, he socializes only with the male employees. Many of them are given
alcohol before Gacy makes sexual advances towards them, which he just dismisses
as a joke if the teenager rebuffs his advances.

1967 – According to Alexander
Saunders, who was personally mentored by Aleister Crowley as a child and has
since appointed himself as ‘King of the Witches’, during the filming of Eye
of the Devil, he initiates the film's star, future Manson victim Sharon Tate, into witchcraft.

1967 –
Vern Grimsley, a
member of the Urantia Foundation, establishes the offshoot Family
of God Foundation in California.
Charlie
Company met no resistance; there were no Viet Cong soldiers at My Lai. Calley
then ordered the slaughter of the civilians. People were rounded up into
ditches and machine-gunned. They lay five feet deep in the ditches; any
survivors trying to escape were immediately shot. When Calley spotted a baby
crawling away from a ditch, he grabbed her, threw her back into the ditch, and
opened fire. Some of the dead were mutilated by having "C Company"
carved into their chests; some were disemboweled. One GI would later say,
"You didn't have to look for people to kill, they were just there. I CUT
THEIR THROATS, CUT OFF THEIR HANDS, CUT OUT THEIR TONGUES, SCALPED THEM. I DID
IT. A LOT OF PEOPLE WERE DOING IT AND I JUST FOLLOWED. I JUST LOST ALL SENSE OF
DIRECTION.”
1968 (April 4) - Martin
Luther King, Jr. is assassinated, allegedly by James Earl Ray.
1968 (May) – Frank Zappa, who had been
living with a girl named Pamela Zarubica (aka Suzie Creamcheese) at another
Laurel Canyon home, visits Carl Franzoni at the Log Cabin and realizes that the place is perfect for
his needs, so he takes over the lease. Carl and the rest of Vito Paulekas’
dance troupe, who have been staying there, are allowed to stay on. Charles
Manson and several of his Family will reportedly hang out there for a while as
well, joining in on the rampant sex and partying. Zappa will stay at the Log
Cabin until December, when he moves out again.
1968 (June 5) – Senator Robert
F. Kennedy is assassinated. The apparent assassin is Sirhan Sirhan, but evidence will reveal that he wasn’t
the actual killer. Sirhan will confess to doing it, but only because people are
telling him that he did. He will have no memory of the actual event and will
eventually claim that he was mind-controlled. Sirhan had
apparently been ‘treated’ by CIA hypnotist William
Jennings Bryan prior to the assassination. Bryan is a programmer from
the US Air Force and was Chief of Medical Survival Training, which was a covert
brainwashing section. It will be reported that Sirhan is in a trance-like state
both during and after the shooting. The ballistics evidence and autopsy report
will be suppressed, making it impossible to prove whether or not Sirhan was the
actual killer. Sirhan was standing in front of Kennedy when Kennedy was shot,
but he was shot from behind. One witness will give testimony that she heard 12
to 14 shots, but the FBI will change her testimony to state that she heard only
8 shots – the maximum number that Sirhan’s gun could hold. Four other witnesses
will also report hearing more than 8 shots. Audio evidence will also show that
at least 13 shots were fired. The sound of two different guns will also be distinguished,
one firing more rapidly than the other.
Sirhan had disappeared for three months
the year before, and when he returned he had a sudden fascination with the
occult. More recently, he had been working at a racing stable in Santa Ana,
California, where, according to a co-worker named Thomas Bremer, he was
programmed by two CIA mind-control specialists. Bremer’s brother Arthur,
another mind-control victim, happens to be the man who will shoot Governor George Wallace in 1972. A large quantity of Rosicrucian
and other occult literature will be found in Sirhan’s room when it’s searched.
Sirhan is alleged to have
been acquainted with a member of the Process Church (a
Scientology offshoot), and to have attended drug orgies at the home of Roman
Polanski and Sharon Tate, who may also have been linked to the Process Church.
Robert Kennedy had dined with Roman Polanski and Sharon Tate the night before
his assassination. Only one year later, the same home that he dined at will be
the target of Charles Manson’s band of murderers. Manson will also be found to
have links to the Process Church, as will future serial killer David Berkowitz.
Years after the assassination, while under
hypnosis, Sirhan will recall that he had run into a woman in a polka-dot dress
who he had been smitten by and felt compelled to follow to the pantry of the
Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles where RFK was, at which point she pinched him
and then spun him around to face Kennedy as he entered. Sirhan states that he
thought he was at a shooting range at this point and only saw the circles of
targets in front of him, and that’s when he began shooting. He also recalled
seeing someone else with a gun at the time of the shooting. Sirhan will also
recall being at a shooting range before the assassination, accompanied by an
unknown man. While in prison, he will be visited by MKULTRA mind-control
programmer, Dr. Louis Jolyin West. The name of
another future serial killer, Albert DeSalvo, will be found repetitively
scrawled throughout Sirhan’s diary. DeSalvo will also be ‘treated’ by William
Jennings Bryan after his arrest.
The
wording of this memo suggests that this had already been successfully achieved,
and that children were used in the experiments.

1968 – At about this time, Charles Manson
begins promoting his music to Dennis Wilson, Terry Melcher, and other
music-industry professionals. He uses his growing harem of promiscuous young
girls to buy his way into their personal lives. He will spend a few weeks
staying at the Log Cabin in Laurel Canyon at the
end of the year. He will also go calling at Vito Paulekas’ art studio on Laurel
Avenue.
1968 – Zbigniew Brzezinski
publishes his book, The Technotronic Age,
in which he posits an information society whose basis of competition is
replaced by ‘amusement focus’ based on “spectator spectacles (mass sports
and TV) providing an opiate for increasingly purposeless masses... New forms of
social control may be needed to limit the indiscriminate exercise by the
individual of their new powers. The possibility of extensive chemical mind
control... will call for a social definition of the common criteria of
restraint as well as utilization.” He also states that it will soon be
possible to continuously control citizens and maintain up-to-date files on them that will be instantaneously
retrievable by authorities and will contain their most personal details about
health and personal behavior. He predicts that power will be in the hands of
those who control information.

Control, World Control, by Jim Keith)
1968 – Late in the year, the leaders of the Process Church leave San Francisco for New York City, where a Process
Church is established on Cornelia Street in Greenwich Village. In addition to
the church, numerous members start living in a building on East 12th Street,
while the DeGrimstons live in Brooklyn. As in California, they recruit among
the artists, poets and hordes of counterculture youth who frequent the Village.
A cult spokesman will later tell United Press International that more than 200
Americans were fully converted to the ‘faith’. Process contingents will
subsequently materialize in New Orleans, Dallas, Toronto, Chicago and
Cambridge, Massachusetts, among other locations. After this, they begin to branch
out to small towns adjacent to colleges and military bases – recruiting young
adults who are away from home and in search of meaning. The growth in
membership will be explosive.
After
the DeGrimstons leave for New York, the remaining members in California go
through a lot of political infighting. Possibly due to Sirhan Sirhan’s
association with their group, the Process Church goes underground and secret
chapters or spin-offs are established in northern and southern California. One
of these will purportedly be the ‘Four P Movement’ or ‘Four Pi’, which will be
involved in blood-drinking and human and animal sacrifice.

A
psychiatric evaluation prior to his conviction concludes that he has antisocial
personality disorder (ASPD), is unlikely to benefit from any medical treatment,
and his behavior pattern is likely to bring him into repeated conflict with
society.

1969 – Lincoln Lawrence (a
pseudonym) publishes a book, We Were Controlled,
in which he claims that Lee Harvey Oswald was a
hypno-programmed assassin and had a malfunctioning implant in his brain. He
describes RHIC-EDOM technology:
“Under RHIC, a
'sleeper' can be used years later with no realisation that the 'sleeper' is
even being controlled! He can be made to perform acts that he will have no
memories of having ever carried out...nothing he says will implicate the group
or government which possessed and controlled him. […] There is already in use a small EDOM
generator-transmitter which can be concealed on the body of a person. Contact
with the person - a casual handshake or even just a touch - transmits a tiny
electronic charge plus an ultrasonic signal tone which for a short while will
disturb the time orientation of the person affected.”
1969 – At about this time, the FBI’s Behavioral Sciences Unit (BSU) begins taking shape, but won’t
really take off until 1972, when the
FBI Academy opens in Quantico, Virginia. It will initially have no operational
functions and will be solely involved in teaching the principles of profiling.
Over the next 25 to 30 years, despite initial resistance, the FBI will manage
to spread the use of the BSU’s profiling techniques in
other professions, thoroughly co-opting the fields of law enforcement,
academia, mental health, and the forensic sciences. In doing so, they will
successfully mold public opinion and firmly ingrain in the mind of the average
American the concept of the ‘serial killer’. They will later do the same with
the concept of the ‘terrorist’.
Curiously,
Robert Ressler, who will become the most well known profiler in the unit, had
lived on the same street and was in Boy Scouts with future serial killer John
Wayne Gace when they were boys. Ressler will later assist in investigating the
Gace case.

1969 - The California Board of Medical
Examiners finds MKULTRA’s Dr. William Joseph Bryan guilty
of unprofessional conduct for sexually molesting four women patients who
submitted under hypnosis. Bryan
had demonstrated a proclivity and fantasy for sexual perversion. Shortly after
his sudden death in 1977 in Las Vegas, two Beverly Hills prostitutes will come
forward and claim to have known him intimately, saying that they had been
‘servicing’ him on an average of twice a week for four years, and were usually
present at the same time. According to the prostitutes, Bryan would repeatedly
confide that he is not only a CIA agent but involved in ‘top secret projects’.
They will say that he bragged about his role of deprogramming Albert Di Salvo
in the Boston Strangler case for F. Lee Bailey, and boasted that he had hypnotized
Sirhan Sirhan, Robert F. Kennedy's alleged assassin.

1969 (July 4) – The Zodiac
Killer strikes a second time in Los Angeles when a couple is gunned down in their car,
this time with a 9mm semi-automatic. The woman, 22-year-old Darlene Ferrin,
dies on the way to the hospital, while 19-year-old Michael Mageau will survive
his wounds. Ferrin, who appears to have been the primary target of the attack,
may have known the previous Zodiac victims. She had reportedly told her friends
that she had witnessed a murder by a man who had subsequently been following
her. In the weeks before her death, she had been receiving mysterious packages
from a man living in Mexico who she had, for unexplained reasons, married in
1966 using an assumed name and then later divorced. On the night of the
shooting, Mageau had left his home in such a hurry that the lights and TV were
left on and the front door was left open. He will tell investigators that he
and Ferrin were followed immediately upon leaving Ferrin's house. After
changing his story several times, Mageau will go into hiding. Within hours of
the shooting, police will receive a call from a man claiming credit for
Ferrin's murder. The call is placed from a payphone near the Sheriff 's
station.
By
the end of July, the first of what will prove to be a long series of letters
will arrive at three different area newspaper offices, with a demand that the
letters be published on August 1 (the occult holiday known as Lammas),
otherwise there would be other attacks. The series of letters are laced with
ciphers that suggest that the writer has a background in naval intelligence,
bringing the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI) onto the case. On August 4,
1969, the killer will supply his moniker in a letter that begins: “This is
the Zodiac speaking.” The Zodiac will include information in the letters
that proves he was present during the murders and will indicate that his
identity is hidden inside the ciphers.

1969 (July) – Acting on a
phone tip, police raid the OTO’s Solar Lodge compound
near Blythe, California and find a six-year-old boy locked outdoors in a 6’ x
6’ wooden crate in the sweltering desert heat. The young boy had allegedly been
chained to a steel plate for 56 days in temperatures reaching as high as 117°
F. According to an FBI report, the box also contained a can “partially filled
with human waste and swarming with flies … The stench was nauseating.” Before
being put in the box, the child had been burned with matches and beaten with
bamboo poles by cult members. The leader of the cult, Georgina Brayton, had
reportedly told cult members that “when it was convenient, she was going to
give [the boy] LSD and set fire to the structure in which he was chained and
give him just enough chain to get out of reach of the fire.” Killing the child
had also been discussed. Eleven adult members of the sect are charged with
felony child abuse, the majority of them young white men in their early
twenties. All will be brought to trial and convicted.
1969
(August 9-10) – A year after the satanic movie Rosemary’s
Baby is released, director Roman Polanski’s beautiful young bride, the
eight-months-pregnant Hollywood actress Sharon Tate,
is brutally murdered along with four other people at her Cielo Drive home in
the Bel Air section of Los Angeles. The words ‘Pig’ and ‘Helter Skelter’ are
scrawled in blood on the walls.
The next night, in the Los Feliz section of Los
Angeles, wealthy supermarket president Leno La Bianca and his wife Rosemary are
stabbed to death inside their home at 3301 Waverly Drive. Again, the word ‘Pig’
is scrawled in blood on the walls.
The killers are members of the Manson Family,
a cult led by Charles Manson. Record producer
Terry Melcher (Doris Day’s son) owns the property on Cielo Drive and had been
living there until Polanski and Tate took over the lease in February. Melcher
knew Manson personally and had been getting pestered by him for a recording contract.
Sharon’s father Paul Tate happens to be a Colonel in US Army Intelligence. Two
of Manson’s followers, Susan Atkins and Bobby Beausoleil, are connected to Anton LaVey/Kenneth Anger’s
Church of Satan. Both had played roles in several of
Anger’s b–grade movie productions, and Beausoleil had been Anger’s live-in
lover for a while. LaVey
is himself allegedly connected to Roman Polanski, claiming to have acted as
technical consultant as well as starring in a cameo role as the devil in Polanski’s
Rosemary’s Baby. Another prominent Manson follower is Lynette ‘Squeaky’
Fromme, the daughter of an aerospace engineer who had been stationed at
Randolph Air Force Base during WWII. Manson will later state that the victims
in the murders he ordered had been involved in child pornography and deserved
to die.
Three
days before the grisly murders, a drug dealer named Billy Doyle had been
publicly whipped and sodomized at the Polanski/Tate home while a number of
people watched. According to actor Dennis Hopper, “They had fallen into
sadism and masochism and bestiality — and they recorded it all on videotape,
too. The LA police told me this. I know that three days before they were killed
twenty-five people were invited to that house for a mass whipping of a dealer
from Sunset Strip who'd given them bad dope.” There will also be rumors
that Polanski and Tate were deeply involved in Satanism. Hopper will also state
in interviews that sadistic movies were filmed at the house that featured some
of Hollywood's biggest names. Sammy
Davis Jr., who was introduced to the Church of Satan by Manson victim Jay
Sebring, will state, regarding the victims who were killed at Tate's Cielo
Drive residence: “Everyone there had at one time or another been into satanism.”
Roman
Polanski will hire psychic Peter Hurkos in an attempt to find out who killed
his wife. He will also put up a $25,000 reward. Col. Paul Tate will allegedly
conduct his own undercover investigation in an attempt to discover his
daughter’s killers. The LAPD will drag their feet and not follow up on leads,
even failing to connect the two murder sites.
Manson’s
parole officer, Dr. Roger Smith, who was involved in a mind-control project at
the Haight-Ashbury medical clinic at the time that Manson was reporting to him,
will state in an interview with Life magazine that “there are a lot
of Charlies running around, believe me.” Smith knew that Manson was
breaching his parole conditions almost from the moment he was released from
prison, but did nothing about it.

1969 (August) – Ronald
Hadley Stark approaches Timothy Leary’s Brotherhood
of Eternal Love in Laguna Beach, California, with an offer to bankroll
their drug trafficking activities. He is carrying with him 10 million doses of
liquid LSD. He impresses
them with his knowledge of drug smuggling and money laundering, as well as his
connections in the world of covert politics. He also makes known his intention
of facilitating the overthrow of both Western capitalism and Eastern Communism
by inducing altered states of consciousness in millions of people. With Stark’s
help, the Brotherhood will quickly become the largest supplier of illicit drugs
in the USA. It will be discovered in later years that Stark is a long-time CIA
operative with connections to the Tavistock Institute in Great Britain, where
he was also responsible for supplying the majority of illicit drugs.
There
are indications that Stark is also intimately tied to Charles Manson as his drug supplier at this time, since Manson has
access to Stark’s ‘Orange Sunshine’ LSD before it becomes available on the
streets. Manson is also allegedly selling cocaine when it is still rarely seen
outside of celebrity circles.
1969 (August) –
The Woodstock rock festival takes place.
1969 (September 27) – The fourth Zodiac murder occurs when Bryan
Hartnell and Cecilia Shepard are stabbed multiple times in a San Francisco-area
park. Despite the fact that it took nearly an hour for an ambulance to respond
to the call as the pair lay bleeding, Hartnell survived the attack. The
assailant is described as wearing a strange hood with an attached apron that
prominently displayed the trademark symbol of the Zodiac. The attacker
reportedly had a gun, but chose instead to use a knife, breaking from the
previous pattern and likely contributing to the survival of the male victim.
The killer left a message on Hartnell's car door, which included the dates of
the two earlier attacks. Prints from a military-issue boot distributed
primarily to U.S. naval bases on the west coast are found at the scene. The
professed killer again calls police from a payphone near the local police
station. He reportedly leaves a clear palm print on the phone, but a ‘nervous’
technician reportedly destroys it.

1969 (October) – Andrija
Puharich gives a report on his ESH research before an annual meeting of the
American Academy of Ophthalmology and Otolaryngology (AAOO)
in Chicago, Illinois. He had been warned that he would face severe opposition.
However, he had no idea how virulent that opposition would be. As a prelude,
three days before the meeting his office in New York was robbed of all the
clinical records on his patients. He will eventually trace the theft to the
AAOO. After he presents his paper and shows a movie film of his work, the
opposition gets up and argues for the next two hours that Andrija's claims to
be able to help people with hearing loss are not acceptable. He is also told
that since he is “not a member of the club” of the AAOO, his evidence would not
be acceptable in any case. He responds by offering them to use his equipment to
test his claims for themselves, but they refuse.
1969 (October 11) – The Zodiac
killer strikes again when a
taxi driver is shot once in the head with a 9mm handgun. The weapon used is a
different 9mm than had been used previously by the Zodiac. The latest victim
had picked up his fare on Mason Street and had then driven him to an address in
the Presidio Heights area of the city, where he was promptly shot. Some local
kids witness the murder and immediately call the police with a description of
the assailant. For unexplained reasons, however, the police dispatcher
broadcast a description of a black perpetrator, allowing the real shooter to
evade a massive police response. Two days later, a new letter from the Zodiac
will claim credit for the killing and threaten a future attack on a school bus.

1969 -
Lookout Mountain Laboratory, which has operated
as a secret government facility in the heart of Laurel Canyon since 1941,
closes. Residents of Laurel Canyon will not become aware of its existence until
the 1990s.
1970 (January) – Anton LaVey
publishes The Satanic
Bible. He had been approached the year before by Peter Mayer, a publisher for Avon Books, who, following the
success of Rosemary’s Baby, had seen
an opportunity and offered LaVey a book deal. The book is a hodge-podge of mostly plagiarized
material that is more of a marketing gimmick than a serious work. It includes
rituals and spells involving human sacrifice, blood drinking, cannibalism,
etc., that will allegedly bring personal power, and the author encourages the
disregard for laws and morals in the pursuit of one’s desires, and states that
revenge against one’s enemies should be a top priority. The book is supposed to provide the core principles of Satanism,
and act as the foundation for his church’s philosophy and dogma. The book will
quickly elevate LaVey and his Church of Satan to national status, allowing him
to promote his church
and Satanism in general to a much larger audience than he ever could otherwise,
and draw in many more subscription memberships
and open chapters across the country. The book will go through many printings,
being seen on bookstore shelves for years to come. Memberships outside of San
Francisco will be conducted primarily by correspondence, but new chapters will
also be started in various other cities as members rise up the ranks and split
off.
Apart
from drawing in more members, what the publication of this book will do, whether
deliberately or not, is provide individuals who are perhaps more dedicated,
more serious, and even more charismatic than LaVey himself, with a philosophical
basis for their actions – in many cases, providing them with the ritual tools,
jargon, and psychological conditioning necessary to perpetrate horrendous
crimes that will scare the living daylights out of the rest of the population.

1970 – Rand Corporation publishes
a report entitled, A Direct Mechanism for the Direct Influence of Microwave
Radiation on Neuroelectric Function, by R.J. MacGregor. The author notes
that "power densities of close to 1000,000mw/cm2 can produce auditory hallucinations in a field that would be
averaged as low intensity and non-thermal."

1970 – In spite of him stating at
his parole hearing that he is not ready to be released and will kill again, Henry Lee Lucas is released after having served 10
years of a 20 – 40 year sentence for murdering his mother and violating the
corpse. Lucas’ mother had been both physically and sexually abusive to Henry
throughout his childhood, which had turned him into a sadistic psychopath and
sexual deviant by the time he reached his teens. During his incarceration for
her murder, he spent four and a half years on a mental ward, receiving
intensive drug and electroshock treatments. He will later describe having constantly
heard voices in his head during this time. He will later describe that period
of
incarceration as a “nightmare that would not end.”
Within
a year of his release, he will be back in prison again for the attempted
abduction of a young girl. He will serve four years before getting another
early release in August of 1975, at which point he will become involved in a
satanic cult called the Hand of Death. Accompanied by a
man named Ottis Toole, he will begin committing an untold number of lurid child
abductions and murders until his final capture in 1983. He will later claim
that many of these were contractual murders that had been ordered by the cult.

1970 (September) – Psychological warfare expert Colston Westbrook returns to the USA from Vietnam
where he was part of the CIA’s Phoenix Program (Chaos
Program). Westbrook begins work under the cover of the UC Berkeley Black
Studies Department at Vacaville Prison. He will
soon become
involved in programming Donald DeFreeze, an
informant for the LAPD’s Criminal Conspiracy
Section who
will become the leader of the MKULTRA-created
Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA) that will be
involved in kidnapping Patricia Hearst.
1970 (September 14) – The first of the ‘Death Angel’ attacks occurs in Berkley, California
when 21-year-old Danny Crawford is picked up hitchhiking by two black men who
hold him down and slash him with a meat cleaver before dropping him off. The
next attack will be on October 25, involving the mutilation/murder of an
unknown white male. Two more attacks will occur on October 27 involving
gunshots. Two more attacks with a gun will occur on November 10. The attacks
will carry into the next year, the next one occurring on June 18, 1971. By
July, the attackers will more often than not be reported as two black men
wielding a machete-type weapon. The attacks will continue throughout 1971 and
will never be solved.
1970 (October 4) – Janis Joplin
is found dead of an apparent drug overdose at the Landmark Hotel in Los Angeles. Indications
are that she had taken or been given a ‘hot shot’, many times stronger than
standard street heroin. Like Jim Morrison and Jimi Hendrix, she is only 27
years old when she dies. Joplin’s father was a petroleum engineer for Texaco.
1970 (October 19) – The occupants of a home in Santa Cruz – a prominent doctor, his wife, secretary,
and two children - are tied up, shot, and then thrown in the pool before the house is set on fire. A group of people appear to be involved. A few days later, however, John
Lindley Frazier, is arrested and charged with being the sole perpetrator
of the crimes. He will be convicted for all five murders by late November. Frazier,
who is known to have a strong interest in the occult, had suddenly left his
wife and started living as an ‘Aquarian Age’ hermit, moving into a tiny shack
in the woods three months earlier. Soon after these murders, women start going
missing from around the Santa Cruz area.

1970 (November 19) – While Andrija
Puharich is attending a conference in Rye, New York that is being
convened for the purpose of exploring the energy involved in certain psychic
phenomena, one of the scientists present reports on a young man in Israel who
could apparently do amazing psychokinetic feats, such as splitting solid gold
rings in two, and moving clock hands. This is the first time that Puharich
hears about the psychic, Uri Geller.
Ted will leave the crisis center to
intern at Harborview County Hospital as a psychiatric counselor, his salary
being funded by a federal grant. He will also work that same year as a key
organizer of Washington Governor Dan Evans' reelection campaign. His job will
be, specifically, to spy and gather intelligence on the governor's opponent.
Governor Evans will later personally write Ted a glowing letter of
recommendation to a Utah law school. He will next work for a variety of city,
state and county law enforcement entities. In April 1973, he will become a
special assistant to Washington's Republican Party Chairman, Ross Davis, whom he
will frequently dine with and whose children he will occasionally babysit.

1971 – FBI agent Ted Gunderson is
called before the United States Senate and reprimanded for his roll in the murder set up of
five Black Panther members after Gunderson sends love letters
claiming to be from one Panther to the other’s wife, which caused one member to
kill the other and several members to be framed for murder. Bobbi Seals will be
acquitted for these charges and the members involved will be paid several
million dollars in damages. Gunderson, an expert in counter-intelligence
tactics, was using these skills to disrupt the Black Panthers, who were targets of
the government’s illegal COINTELPRO program.
1972 (January 2) – John Wayne Gacy picks
up a 16-year-old male from Chicago's Greyhound bus terminal. He takes him on a
sightseeing tour of Chicago, then drives him to his home with the promise that
he can spend the night and be driven back to the station in time to catch his
bus. Gacy will later claim that he awoke the following morning to find McCoy
standing in his bedroom doorway with a kitchen knife in his hand. Gacy leapt
from his bed and wrestled him to the floor, then stabbed him repeatedly in the
chest with the knife. Gacy then went to his kitchen and saw an opened carton of
eggs and a slab of unsliced bacon on the kitchen table, which had been set for
two. The boy had walked into Gacy's room to wake him while absentmindedly
carrying the kitchen knife in his hand. Gacy buried the body in his crawl space
and later covered the youth's grave with a layer of concrete.
1972 – The Santa Cruz area of
California becomes a mecca for hippies, drug traffickers, and satanists. It
also becomes the location of a large number of seemingly random murder/mutilations. Up until this time, 95
percent of murders that have occurred in the USA have been primarily
situational – inspired by tense domestic incidents or the result of some kind
of altercation among acquaintances. But the murders during the 1970s in Santa
Cruz will defy this pattern.
Many
of the area's killings will be credited to two alleged serial killers, Edmund
Kemper and Herb Mullin, who are apparently operating at the same time in the
same city, though acting independently of each other. Kemper's bloody odyssey
will reportedly include eight victims brutally butchered between May 1972 and
April 1973, most of them coeds whose corpses are cannibalized and sexually
violated. Mullin will be credited with dispatching thirteen victims in just
four months, from October 13, 1972 through February 13, 1973. Mullin will admit
to having a strong interest in the occult, choosing significant satanic dates
for his murders.
No
fewer than six serial killers/mass murderers – Charles Manson, Stanley Baker,
Edmund Kemper, Herbert Mullin, John Lindley Frazier, and the Zodiac – are
spawned from the Santa Cruz/San Francisco metropolitan area in a span of just
over four years, at a time when ‘serial killers’ are still a rare enough
phenomenon that they haven't yet acquired the label.
During
this same period, Neuro-Linguistic Programming is being developed commercially
for mass consumption at the University of Santa Cruz by Dr. Bateson, Richard
Bandler and John Grinder.

to Kill, by David McGowan)
1972 – The US Army publishes
a study entitled Controlled Offensive Behavior: USSR, which concerns
itself with targeting individuals with mind-altering techniques and “the total
submission of one’s will to some outside force.” The study involves the use of pulsed microwaves.

1972 – Arthur M. Young founds
the highly influential Institute for the Study of
Consciousness at Berkeley. This organization will
provide a forum for some of the most daring thinkers of the day. Young had been involved with Andrija
Puharich’s Round Table Foundation in the early 1950s, during which time
Puharich was exploring psychic channeling.
(See online file, Agent Buried Alive, by James Casbolt)
1972 (May 7) – The first of a series of brutal
murders occurs in the Santa Cruz, California area that will be attributed to Edmund Kemper. These murders will involve two female
hitchhikers who are picked up and taken to an isolated rural area where they
are stabbed, shot, or smothered to death. Kemper then takes the bodies back to
his mother’s home to have sex with them before cutting them up and dumping the
parts in ravines or burying them in fields. As he dissects them, he takes
Polaroid photographs. He will commit more murders over the next year before
turning himself in to police. At the same time that Kemper is murdering people
in the Santa Cruz area, so is serial killer Herb Mullin, and both had been
preceded three years earlier by serial murderer John Linley Frazier.
1973 (March) – The Institute of Neotic Science is founded in Palo Alto,
California by Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell.
It is “dedicated to research and
education in the processes of human consciousness to help achieve a new
understanding and expanded awareness among all people.” This organization
will be heavily involved in psychic testing, partly funding tests conducted
with Uri Geller at SRI.
1973 (April 21) – On Good
Friday, Edmund Kemper strikes a last time when he bludgeons his mother to
death, beheading her and having sex with the corpse before using her head as a
dartboard. He will then call and invite his mother's friend over, and upon her
arrival, will quickly deal with her in a similar manner. After this, he will
leave California for Colorado, where he will call friends at the Santa Cruz
police department and begin confessing to a string of murders. After convincing
them that he’s not a crank caller and telling them where to find him, he sits
and waits for them to come and arrest him.
Although
he will be in possession of Polaroid pictures that depict the murders and will
be able to provide many details of the crimes, thus proving his involvement,
there will be indications that others were involved as well. He will give one
of the most detailed, articulate, and chilling confessions of sadism, murder,
mutilation, cannibalism, and necrophilia in the annals of crime. The murders
are laced with satanic symbolism, and he will testify that the killings arose
from fantasies that began to build in his head during his confinement at
Atascadero as a youth. Ed had told California Youth Authority officials of
“evil forces within him which tried to control his behavior”. Kemper will
state, “I believe […] that there are two people inside me.” He will also
describe having experienced a dissociative state while going about his grisly
work: “It's almost like a blacking out. You know what you're doing but you
don't notice anything else around.” Ed will be judged sane and guilty of
eight counts of first-degree murder. He will be sentenced to life in prison and
sent to Vacaville, then later transferred to Folsom.

1973 – In the spring of this year, Uri Geller appears on the Jack Paar TV talk show. Paar
unexpectedly asks whether Geller can bend several large steel nails, held by
Paar. Geller places his hands over Paar's, concentrates, and then asks Paar to
open his hands and inspect the nails. All of them are bent. Edgar Mitchell,
co-appearing on the show, will later state how “when he opened his hand his
face turned ashen. The tip of one of the nails was bent about twenty degrees,
whereas all had been perfectly straight just moments before. An awkward silence
fell over the set.”
Geller will make other TV appearances, and
each time he does, there will be numerous reports from parents calling up the
TV stations and claiming that their children were spontaneously bending spoons
as well. Geller is apparently triggering spontaneous
telekinetic ability among the television viewers. This will become known
as the ‘Geller Effect’.
1973 (November) – At
about this time, Patricia Hearst’s boyfriend, Steven Weed, is on site at the People's
Temple at Ukiah, California and observed talking to cult leader Jim Jones.
1973 (November 23) – An
epidemic of metal bending breaks out in England. Uri
Geller, a guest on "Talk In", a popular television show,
stares fixedly at a fork, rubs it, and it bends! Excited viewers jam the BBC
switchboard with fantastic tales: when Geller looked out from the video screen,
he inadvertently caused the cutlery in their homes to warp. This strange
epidemic of spontaneous telekinesis will spread
with extensive coverage in the national newspapers. Reporters will interview
women, girls and small boys who profess to have the same metal-disturbing power.
Geller himself demonstrates to the press that he can flatten wedding rings,
bend keys, and break bracelets - while the objects are held by their owners. The
metal-bending epidemic will travel with Uri when he appears on
television in Europe, reaching a crescendo in Sweden.

1974 (April 18) – 13-year-old Todd Bequette is abducted at
the Old Market in Omaha, Nebraska, by a man named Terry Holman and forced to
help abduct other children. He will eventually be found by a private detective.
Holman will never be charged.

1974 – J. F. Shapitz, working
at the Department of Defense, files a proposal that states:
“In this
investigation it will be shown that the spoken word of the hypnotist may be
conveyed by modulated electro-magnetic energy directly into the subconscious
parts of the human brain - i.e., without employing any technical devices for
receiving or transcoding the messages and without the person exposed to such
influence having a chance to control the information input consciously.”
This
is an extension of the work done by Dr. Joseph C. Sharp and Mark Grove at
Walter Reed Institute of Research the same year. Besides this proposal, no
records of this research have ever been declassified, suggesting that it was
successful and went into the application stage. The wording of the proposal
suggests that this technology incorporated subliminal
audio via ‘voice-to-skull’ technology,
since it states that the messages are directed to the subconscious (i.e.
subliminal) and don’t necessitate a receiving device (such as an implant) to
transcode them.
This
same year, Puharich sets up ‘Lab Nine’ at his
home in Ossining and starts working with another psychic named Phyllis Schlemmer. John Whitmore, the professional racecar
driver and international tycoon, will also be closely involved. Schlemmer will
soon begin channeling an entity that claims to be part of ‘The Nine’ from
Puharich’s Round Table days in the 1950s. These channeling sessions will
continue into the next year, when the three will have a falling out. Schlemmer
will continue to channel these entities for the next twenty years, eventually
publishing a book based on the communications titled, The Only Planet of Choice: Essential Briefings from Deep
Space. In her book, she will claim that these entities are known
about by our world governments but our governments refuse to disclose their
existence and are covering it up.
Lab Nine disciples include
multi-millionaire businessmen (many hiding behind pseudonyms and including
members of Canada's richest family, the Bronfmans), European nobility,
scientists from Stanford Research Institute and at least one prominent
political figure who is a personal friend of President Gerald Ford. Author
Lyall Watson is also involved, as is the influential counter-culture guru Ira
Einhorn, as well as Gene
Roddenberry, the creator of the television hit ‘Star Trek’.
1974 – The Citizens Freedom Foundation (CFF)
is founded. It will officially change its name to the Cult Awareness Network (CAN) in 1986. Louis Jolyin West will
become the director of CAN, which will be funded by the CIA to study the
psychobiology of dissociation.
1974 – A paper
by SRI psychic researchers Hal Puthoff and Russell Targ appears in Nature magazine, titled Information Transfer
Under Conditions of Sensory Shielding.

1975 (January 4) – The Rockefeller Commission is set
up to examine the malfeasance of the US intelligence agencies and make
recommendations about how they can be reorganized and reformed. In reality, the
Rockefeller Commission proposals will reflect the transition from the
structures of the Cold War towards growing totalitarian tendencies.

The crime committed by these
defendants is of a breadth and scope previously unheard of. No building,
office, desk or file was safe from their snooping and prying. No individual or
organization was free from their despicable conspiratorial minds. The tools of
their trade were miniature transmitters, lock picks, secret codes, forged
credentials, and any other device they found necessary to carry out their
conspiratorial schemes.
1975 (April) – At about this time, future serial
killer David Berkowitz becomes involved in a satanic cult in New York. Initially,
according to Berkowitz, the group is involved in harmless activities, such as
séances and fortune telling. Gradually, however, the group introduces him to
drug use, sadistic pornography, and violent crime. They begin by killing dogs,
mostly German Shepherds. Over a dozen mutilated dog corpses will be discovered
in Yonkers, especially near Untermeyer Park, which Berkowitz will later claim
is a frequent meeting place for the cult.
1975 (April) – Government agent and future
Urantia Foundation trustee, Neal Waldrop, is admitted to the Urantia Brotherhood
as a member.

1975 (May) – Andrija
Puharich travels to England, where he meets several
children who can bend spoons, pocketknife blades, keys, etc. He gets permission
from their parents to study their paranormal powers further. Soon after, he
meets more children with these same abilities in Mexico City. By July, he will
have an “experimental school” set up for testing these psychic
children at his home in Ossining, NY. There are initially nine children
plus his fourteen-year-old son, Andy. They will be informally known as the
‘space kids’, and will undergo extensive hypnosis sessions that involve
teaching them that they are from other planets and came to Earth with a life
mission.

1975 (July) – According to the Napa Valley
Sentinel in an article by Harry
V. Martin and David Caul titled, Mind Control (August-November 1991), at
a NATO conference in July, 1975:
A
U.S. Navy psychologist, who claims that the Office of
Naval Intelligence had taken convicted murderers
from military prisons, used behavior modification techniques
on them, and then relocated them in American embassies throughout the world […]
The Navy psychologist was Lt. Commander Thomas Narut of the U.S. Regional
Medical Center in Naples, Italy. The information was divulged at an Oslo NATO
conference of 120 psychologists from the eleven nation alliance […] The Navy
provided all the funding necessary, according To Narut.
Dr. Narut, in a question and answer session with reporters from many nations, revealed how the Navy was secretly programming large numbers of assassins. He said that the men he had worked with for the Navy were being prepared for commando-type operations, as well as covert operations in U.S. embassies worldwide. He described the men who went through his program as ‘hit men and assassins’ who could kill on command.
Careful
screening of the subjects was accomplished by Navy psychologists through the
military records […] and many were convicted murderers serving military prison
sentences.
Thomas Narut, the Navy psychologist
who made the disclosure, states that he is revealing what is obviously highly
classified information only because he assumes that it’s about to surface
anyway (i.e. the Rockefeller, Pike, and Church Committees). As it will turn
out, Narut will have seriously overestimated the interest of the various
committees in practicing full disclosure. After making his unauthorized disclosure,
he promptly disappears from public view, briefly reappearing sometime later to
make a feeble attempt at retracting his statements.

After
his arrest in 1983, Lucas will claim to have been initiated into a satanic cult
that Toole had introduces him to, called the Hand of
Death.
According to Lucas, this cult is part of a larger network that spans the country and involves very
wealthy and influential people at the top, including high-ranking politicians
(this will parallel what serial killer David Berkowitz will claim, and will
appear to be the case with many other serial killers as well). After being released
from prison and joining the cult, he spends some time in the Florida
Everglades, formally training at a mobile paramilitary camp in assassination,
kidnapping, and arson. He and Toole will serve the cult as contract killers and
child abductors.
Ottis
Toole’s grandmother, who had raised him as a youth, had been involved in Satanism
all her life, which is probably how he became involved in the cult network.
According to Lucas, the cult operates
out of Texas and from a ranch in northern Mexico, and trafficks in children and
drugs, among other things. He will claim that what appears to be the random
work of a serial killer is in fact a planned series of crimes often committed
for specific purposes, including the assassination of foreign dignitaries.
Contract hits were purposely mixed in with random murders in order to conceal
the purpose of the crimes.

1975 (September 5) – Lynette
‘Squeaky’ Fromme, who became the head of the Manson Family
after Charles Manson was arrested in October 1969, is arrested and imprisoned
for an attempted assassination of US President Gerald Ford. Another associate of the Manson Family,
Sarah Jane Moore, will also be arrested and imprisoned for a second failed
assassination attempt on President Ford. If either woman had been successful,
Nelson Rockefeller would have taken the presidency.

1976 (February) – President Gerald Ford passes Executive
Order 11905, which authorized
the CIA “to conduct foreign
counterintelligence activities... in the United States.” The power of the
FBI to combat various ‘subversive’ activities is to be reaffirmed. Political
assassination is banned, but no limitations or regulations are to be placed on
covert operations. This will put more power into the hands of the CIA than ever
before, making the newly appointed CIA Director, George Bush, the de facto
intelligence czar. Further to this, all federal employees would now be made to
sign a statement pledging that they will not divulge classified information,
and that they can expect draconian punishment if they ever do so.

1976 – First non-classified Remote
Neural Monitoring device patented by Robert G.
Malech (US patent #3951134, “Apparatus and method for remotely
monitoring and altering brain waves”).
At the time of it’s writing, this patent
was only a conceptual idea and a prototype was never actually built and tested.
It can be shown that the technology described within it wouldn’t be capable of
what it claims, and would never have made it into the patent records if it was,
since the military immediately classify any new patent application that has any
possible weapons application, which this one obviously would. Nonetheless, in
the future this patent will come to be referred to or described in innumerable
online documents and articles on mind-control technologies, influencing many
people’s beliefs that this particular technology could possibly work.
1976 (July 29) – The first ‘Son of Sam’ killings allegedly by David
Berkowitz in New York City. Six people will be killed and seven others
wounded before he is caught a year later, on August 10, 1977. During the
killing spree, a number of cryptic and taunting notes from the Son of Sam will
be sent to reporters and investigators, claiming that he is taking orders from
a neighbor’s dog. The case will be closed without any further investigation
immediately after Berkowitz’s arrest, even though there will be definite signs
that others are involved. He will be sentenced without going to trial. Queens' District Attorney John
Santucci will reopen the case in 1979 after concluding that Berkowitz did not
act alone.
Berkowitz
was an adopted child, and both families were Jewish. After his adopted mother
died, his father remarried and moved to Florida in 1971, leaving David to live
alone in New York. He spent time in the US Army between
1971 and 1974, stationed in Korea, and was a proficient marksman. When Berkowitz joined the army, he had
entered a special program reportedly for ‘profiled’ candidates of an
unspecified character, and was also taking hallucinogenic drugs for
recreational purposes at one point during his stint. It was after his release from the
military that he began to show paranoid delusions, believing that various
people and dogs were possessed by demons. At the time of the murders, he is
working as a postal worker. Berkowitz
may have been under mind-control and knew the source of his programming. In the
first handwritten missive he sent to the New York police, he wrote, “I am
the ‘Son of Sam’. I am a little ‘brat’,” the possible implication being
that he was an army brat. He also wrote, “I am on a different wave length
than everybody else — programmed to kill.”
After
Berkowitz’s arrest, police
will find numerous telephone numbers scrawled on the walls of his apartment,
including the unlisted private home numbers of prominent doctors living on Long
Island, the number for a large Scientology training center in Florida, and the
number for the Montauk Golf and Racquet Club, an exclusive country club on Long
Island that lies adjacent to the purportedly closed Camp Hero military base
that has been tenuously linked by researchers to mind-control operations.
In
1997, Berkowitz will reveal to author/investigator Maury Terry that there were
other people involved in the killings apart from himself, that he only killed
three of the victims and wounded a forth, and the rest of the shootings were
done by other members of the cult. Although he will refuse to discuss anything
that relates to the cult, it will be determined that the Son of Sam group were
part of a larger satanic network that extended across the country, with the local chapter
having members from the Yonkers police department. Berkowitz will claim
that their group performed animal sacrifices and made child
pornography. Many of the victims they targeted had been involved in
college prostitution rings that may have tied in to the satanic network. At the
time of the murders, dead and mutilated dogs, mostly German Shepherds, have
been turning up in the area. Berkowitz will name his neighbors, brothers John
and Michael Carr, and their father Sam Carr, as members of this satanic group.
John Carr is alleged to
have been involved in Satanism since high school, and was in the Air Force for
many years until being discharged only a few months before the first Son of Sam
murders. John Carr had been a staff sergeant stationed at Minot AFB in North
Dakota, and the headquarters of the satanic group he was associated with at the
time was located in nearby Bismarck. Michael Carr was apparently a Scientology
executive and was involved with one of its offshoots – most likely the Process Church, which had
moved its headquarters from California to New York around the time that the Son
of Sam murders started. John Carr will be found shot dead in a
girlfriend's North Dakota apartment in 1978. Michael Carr will be killed in a
car crash in New York City less than two years later.
1977 (February 14) – Frederick
Cowan, a neo-fascist from New Rochelle, New York, who was suspended
from work after quarreling with his Jewish boss, turns up at the plant with a
small arsenal and proceeds to kill five people and wound two others before
turning a gun on himself. According to serial killer David Berkowitz, Cowan had
been involved with the Four Pi movement, a
satanic cult that Berkowitz had also been involved with.

1977 (March) – Andrija
Puharich and Dr. Robert Beck build
a magnetic wave generator in the laboratory in Ossining and begin charting the
effects of different ELF waves on humans. The
dangerous implications of their findings will lead them to prepare a scientific
document and send it (hand carry it) to the political leaders of the western
world: Carter, Trudeau, and Thatcher. Nothing will result.
At this point or earlier, Puharich has
learned that ELF waves can be used to enhance a person’s potential for
telepathic communication. He is also aware that people’s brainwaves will fall
into electromagnetic resonance when in close proximity.

Although
Dahmer had grown up in a healthy family environment, by the age of six, after
having surgery for a double hernia, he had become different. According to his
father, “he grew more inward, sitting quietly for long periods, hardly
stirring, his face oddly motionless.” This change would remain for the rest of
his life.
1978 – The Unabomber (allegedly Ted
Kaczynski) begins his mail-bombing campaign, planting
or mailing numerous home-made bombs to selected targets, eventually killing 3
people and injuring 23 others.
The campaign will continue until Kaczynski is arrested in 1996.
Kaczynski
had been a child prodigy, and had been accepted into Harvard University in 1958
at the age of 16. While there, he was a subject of mind-control experiments
conducted by Dr. Henry Murray. Later, he became
an assistant professor at the University of California, Berkeley at age 25, but
resigned two years later. In 1971, he moved to a remote cabin in Montana that
had no electricity or running water, and lived as a semi-recluse while learning
survival skills, hoping to become self-sufficient. He decided to start his alleged
bombing campaign after seeing the wilderness around his cabin home being
destroyed by development. He had long believed that violent collapse was the
only way to bring down the techno-industrial system. He will later write:
In
a general way, I think what has to be done is […] try to increase tensions in
society to the point where things start to break down. To create a situation
where people get uncomfortable enough that they’re going to rebel. So the
question is how do you increase those tensions?
A
massive amount of drugs commonly used in MKULTRA mind-control programs are found
at the site. This includes 11,000 doses of Thorazine, 20,000
doses of Demerol, stockpiles
of sodium pentathol, chloral hydrate, thallium, and more. It will
later be confirmed by Joseph Holsinger, one of Congressman Ryan’s aides, that
the CIA was responsible for the formation of religious cults in the USA,
stating that MKULTRA had
shifted its programs from public institutions to private cult groups like the
People’s Temple since 1963, and that a CIA rear-support base had been in
collusion with Jim Jones to perform medical and mind control experiments. It
will also be discovered by investigators that Jonestown was the pet project of Dr. Lawrence Laird Layton of the University of
California at Berkeley, a former chemist for the Manhattan Project and head of
the Army’s chemical warfare research division in the early 1950s. Layton had
conceived, staffed, and financed the Jonestown project, and his own son is the
man who had shoots and kills Congressman Ryan. Another CIA agent within the
inner ranks at Jonestown is Richard Dwyer.
Immediately
after the massacre, World Vision, a CIA front
organization, will develop a scheme to repopulate the
Jonestown site with CIA-linked mercenaries from Laos.
A search of Gacy’s
house will be conducted two days later, yielding a number of interesting items:
a high school ring that had belonged to one of the missing boys; an Illinois
drivers license issued to another boy; marijuana and rolling papers; a vast
supply of pharmaceuticals; a switchblade knife; a pair of handcuffs; police
badges; a hypodermic syringe; numerous items of clothing that were obviously
too small for Gacy; books on
homosexuality and pedophilia; a photo lab receipt later traced to the
missing boy; an empty brown bottle that had contained chloroform; a
bloodstained rug; and a homemade stock.
One room in the home will be
completely filled with clown pictures. The crawlspace underneath the house,
where Gacy’s employees had been asked to dig trenches, will be covered with a
layer of lime – useful for hastening the decomposition of bodies. Police will
decide not to arrest Gacy at the time of the search, despite the seemingly
incriminating evidence they will find in his home, and despite the fact that at
this point they will have received complaints from at least five assault
victims, three in Chicago, all alleging druggings and torture administered by
Gacy, and despite the fact that Gacy still has charges pending against him from
an incident earlier in the year.
Gacy is put under police surveillance.
In the meantime, further investigations will reveal his connection to other
disappearances. As the days go by Gacy begins showing signs of stress, even
confessing to the murders to his lawyers.
By December 21, Gacy will be arrested
for possession of marijuana, prompting a second search of his home. This time, 26
bodies buried in his basement will be discovered, the stench of which permeates
the house. Three more bodies will be found elsewhere on the property. During
the search, Gacy will be taken to the hospital due to chest pains, after which
he will immediately confess to the murders, stating almost immediately that
others were involved. When asked where the missing boy is (from December 11),
he will reply, “I don't know. I didn't
transport him.” When asked who did, he will refuse to say. No further
mention will be made regarding accomplices at this point and the issue won’t be
pursued any thereafter. Gacy will
later specifically name two of his employees as being the individuals he had
referred to as being involved in several of the murders. Other surviving
victims will also recall a second person being present with Gacy.
Three
additional bodies, which will be found in the nearby Des Plaines River between
June and December 1978, will also be confirmed to have been victims of Gacy.

to Kill, by David McGowan)
1980 – According to MKULTRA mind-control
victim Cathy O’Brien, during
this year she is programmed at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, by Lt. Col. Michael Aquino of the US Army, a
self-confessed neo-Nazi and devout Satanist. He will use barbaric trauma
techniques on both Cathy and her daughter Kelly that involve NASA technology.
Aquino is the founder of the Temple of Set, and holds top-secret clearance in
the DIA's Psychological Warfare Division. He is also deputy director of reserve
training at the Presidio Army Base in San Francisco. In the years ahead, he
will be charged (but never tried or convicted) for the ritual sexual abuse of
children at the Presidio Army Base day care center, leading to his involuntary
discharge from the Army. He will also be identified by victims in a number of
similar cases at other military bases across the USA.
Cathy O’Brien is a ‘presidential model’
Monarch sex slave, meaning that she is specially programmed to cater to the
sexual perversions of the highest-ranking politicians in the USA. During her
time as a sex slave (which started as a child), she claims to have serviced a
number of well-known politicians, including Bill and Hilary Clinton, Ronald
Reagan, Pierre Trudeau, Brian Mulroney, George H.W. Bush, Dick Cheney,
Governors Lamar Alexander and Richard Thornburgh, Bill Bennett, Senator Patrick
Leahy, Senator Robert Byrd (who is her handler) and Arlen Spector. O'Brien will
eventually give testimony before the US Senate regarding the events she was
forced to go through and she will name her perpetrators. Not one of these men
will challenge her or accuse her of slander.

of America, by Cathy O’Brien and Mark Phillips)
1980 – William
Moore and Charles Berlitz coauthor and publish The
Roswell Incident, which is the first book to come out about this
alleged crash, bringing it to the public’s
attention and raising wider interest in the subject of UFOs and alien
visitation. Stanton Friedman had been involved in the research for the book,
although this is never mentioned.
After the book’s publication, Moore is approached by a high level intelligence official who claims
that he and others know the truth about UFOs and want to get the information
out, so they are willing to help Moore with his work. Moore is told that he
will work primarily through a liaison, who will turn out to be a man named Richard
Doty. In return, Moore is to provide his government connection with information
on the UFO community and certain people within it. Moore decides to accept the
offer.

disinformation, by Don Schmitt)
1980 (October) – Paul Bennewitz, a scientist and amateur UFO
investigator, becomes the target of a UFO hoax initiated
by government agents. It begins when he and another UFO investigator, Dr. Leo
Sprinkle, hear the story of a young woman named Judy Doraty, who claims that
she and her son had been abducted by aliens and taken to an underground base
where they were examined and implanted with alien devices. She claims that
while at the base, she saw large vats with human body parts floating in them.
CAT scans paid for by Bennewitz reportedly confirmed the existence of the
implants in the woman and her son. Bennewitz comes to believe that “at least
300,000 or more in the USA and at least 2,000,000 if not more worldwide”
have been implanted with cerebral control devices by the
aliens, although his means of detecting these implants is questionable: “You
can recognize them because of their eyes... [a] peculiar look in the eyes and a
funny smile.”
Bennewitz,
who owns an electronics research laboratory, attempts to detect the
electromagnetic signals that he believes the aliens are using to control the
woman, in order to find out a way to shield against them. In late 1979, he had
told members of the Aerial Phenomena Research Organization (APRO) that he was
detecting these low frequency signals, and that he had begun to make
calculations about electronic and propulsive techniques employed by the aliens.
At the same time, from his home in Albuquerque, New Mexico, he had been
photographing unidentified lights in the area of the Manzano Nuclear Weapons
Storage Facility east of Kirtland Air Force Base. He believed that he had “established
constant direct communication with the Alien using a computer and a form of Hex
Decimal Code with Graphics and print-out.” The communication method also
involved asking the aliens questions telepathically when a UFO was in sight.
Bennewitz
comes to believe that he has located two underground alien bases in the New
Mexico desert, and begins collecting evidence, even hiring a helicopter to take
photographs of the sites. He claims to have captured images of saucer craft, beam weapons,
and aliens on the ground. However, when the film is developed, these images are
inexplicably missing. Bennewitz goes on to produce a written report on his
research titled Project Beta, which includes a study of alien
psychology, as well as proposed means by which the military might destroy the
alien bases – using his own company, Thunder Electronics, as a sub-contractor
for his own beam weapon inventions.
Throughout
all this, Bennewitz has been in close touch with a military officer named Major
Edwards at the Manzano facility, and through him, was able to give several
presentations to ‘high-level’ Air Force personnel at the base. UFO
writer/researcher William Moore will later
explain that “[Bennewitz] had innocently stumbled on a signal used in a
secret Air Force experiment that was totally unrelated to UFOs. He was
approached by security officers who tried to get him to disconnect his
equipment and to stop monitoring their electromagnetic tests. The more they did
this, of course, the more Bennewitz was convinced they had something to hide
(which was true) and that it had to do with UFOs (which was false). And he
refused to comply.”
The hoax is stepped up in an attempt
to lead Bennewitz into discrediting himself. People with apparent implant scars
begin to come to him more frequently with their abduction stories, and
Bennewitz begins to have a number of his own abduction experiences. By early
September 1981, William Moore will be contacted by a “well-placed individual
within the intelligence community who claimed to be directly connected to a
high-level project dealing with UFOs.” This man, who will only be known
only as ‘Falcon’, will claim that he is part of a group that wants to expose
the continuing government cover-up of UFOs. Moore will go along with the man’s
story in the hopes of gaining access to government UFO information. Acting as
liaison between Moore and this secret group will be a man named Sgt. Richard Doty, who will later
be found to have been working for AFOSI and trained in disinformation and
psychological operations. Moore will soon learn that his own role is to
provide Doty with information on Bennewitz in exchange for ‘sensitive’
information on UFOs. He will also learn that several government agencies are
collaborating together to discredit Bennewitz by passing him disinformation.
By
1982, the ‘alien invasion’ scenario that Bennewitz is being fed will begin to be
adopted into the beliefs of a large number of people within the UFO community
that the information has been disseminated to, in which malevolent reptilian aliens
and their ‘grey’ alien assistants are abducting humans, mutilating cattle,
farming hybrids, and implanting humans with control devices. These aliens, as
the story goes, had made a secret treaty with the US government, in which they
would be allowed to operate an underground base in Dulce, New Mexico and abduct
a certain number of humans for experimentation, in exchange for alien
technology. To add a further twist to the plot, there is also a benevolent
group of aliens intent on stopping the destructive greys from ravaging the
planet.
Eventually,
Bennewitz will have a nervous breakdown due to the stress induced by the
situation, and will be hospitalized and placed under psychiatric care. When
Moore realizes that he had been used by Doty and had helped to lead Bennewitz
to this state, he will publicly confess to his part in the hoax. Nonetheless, many
other up-and-coming UFO researchers/investigators will be unwittingly manipulated
in a similar fashion in the years ahead, being provided with false documents
and other carefully crafted pieces of disinformation that will continue to
support people’s belief in aliens and UFOs and create enough intrigue and
sensationalism to capture and hold the attention of many millions of willing
believers.
As late as February 27, 2005, long
after the false information he provided has been fully adopted into the
modern-day UFO mythos, Richard Doty will explain on Art Bell’s Coast to Coast
radio show that the disinformation campaign against Bennewitz was done to
protect base secrets, and that it was an
easier way to handle Bennewitz’s monitoring of sensitive Air Force activities
than making him stop. He will state, “It
was easier for us to have done it that way than to get a warrant, a search
warrant and a seizure warrant and seize all of his property and seize his
equipment. What would that do? That would cause a lot of publicity, and the
wrong type of publicity the base wanted.”
1980 (December 8) –
Mark David Chapman murders John Lennon outside
Lennon’s residence at the Dakota Hotel in New York City. When Chapman sees
Lennon, he hears a voice in his head saying, “Do it! Do it! Do it!” After
the shooting, Chapman sits down on the curb and begins reading a copy of the
book, The Catcher in the Rye, by J. D. Salinger, and waits for the
police to arrive. Inside the book, he had written, “This is my statement.” The
book is known to be prescribed to mind-control victims by their programmers. A
few months after the shooting, Chapman will send a handwritten statement
to The New York Times, urging everyone to read The Catcher in the Rye,
calling it an “extraordinary book that holds many answers.” Even though
his lawyers believe they can get him off with an insanity plea, Chapman will
decide to plead guilty after a voice in his head that he attributes to God
commands him to do so.
