A US judge on Monday apologized to the man accused of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump for the “legally deficient” treatment he has faced in a Washington DC, jail, including being placed on suicide watch, separated from other inmates and denied a Bible.
The US magistrate judge Zia Faruqui said he was disturbed by the conditions for Cole Allen, who allegedly fired a shotgun during a foiled attack on Trump and senior officials in his administration at a 25 April press gala. The judge said the conditions were inappropriate for a person with no criminal history.
“Whatever you’ve been through, I apologize,” Faruqui said during a court hearing.
He was part of the program, but he was also completely cut loose.
Again I should say, MKUltra was based on nonsense paired with a reckless disregard for consequences. They didn’t care how many people they hurt because hurting people was the goal. Gottlieb shredded most of the records the second accountability came calling, because it was all nonsense.
It’s just like the Nazi medical experiments. One of the more infamous Nazi experiments was injecting dye into the eyes of twins to see of the other twin’s eyes would change color. MKUltra was basically that level of scientific rigor, except with more LSD.
That’s what made the program so dangerous, not some bullshit mind control, the reckless disregard and protection from consequences for the monsters doing the twisted and pointless experiments.
How does shit like that get greenlighted? That nonsense would have sounded just as monstrous back then as it does today.
