The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has uncovered
thousands of "lost" documents which show that its chemical and
biological mind-control experiments on human subjects were conducted as
late as mid-1972. |

CIA Director Stansfield Turner has maintained that the only sketchy financial records left in the CIA's files on its mind-control projects showed human experimentation was discontinued in 1964.
The newly discovered files–14 folders with about 700 pages of financial records–indicate that human subjects were experimented on with their knowledge under the CIA's Project MK-SEARCH until the project was halted by CIA Technical Services Director Sidney Gottieb on July 10, 1972.
They also contained detailed operations files on chemical and biological experimentation run from 1949 until the mid-1950s under CIA's code names Bluebird and Artichoke. Subjects of the experiments included CIA personnel who were aware of the experiments and foreigners who may not have been, according to the CIA.
... North Korean officials accused the United States in 1951 of conducting bacteriological experimentation on captured POWs at Koje Island prison off South Korea. U.S. officials emphatically denied the charges.
