Summary
Today's True Weird Stuff Episode - Subproject 68
Imagine going into a hospital for something minor…and finding yourself restrained. Injected with paralyzing drugs, zapped with massive amounts of electro-shock treatments, and placed in a medical coma for weeks and sometimes months on end. A blacked-out helmet strapped to your head; a voice droning on and on into your ears for up to 20 hours a day. At the end of it, you may not remember your own name – and you never consented to any of it. Welcome to the CIA’s secret experiments on unsuspecting humans: Subproject 68.
