Full transcript of November 1953. A government scientist named Frank Olson goes through
November 1953. A government scientist named Frank Olson goes through a closed hotel window and falls ten stories to the pavement. The police call it suicide. His family believes it for twenty-two years — until they learn the CIA had secretly drugged him with LSD days before he died, and that the men responsible spent the next decade shredding every file that proved what they'd done. In 1994, his family dug up his grave to find out what really happened to him. What the forensic scientist found under oath — and why no court has ever ruled on it — is not what the government told them. The full story is on the channel. This is Dark Chapters in History.
