MK-Ultra was a top-secret CIA program that began in the early 1950s and officially ended in the 1970s. Its goal was to develop mind control techniques for use in interrogations and espionage, particularly during the Cold War. Under MK-Ultra, the CIA conducted unethical experiments on unwitting individuals, often involving LSD, hypnosis, sensory deprivation, electroshock therapy, and other methods meant to manipulate mental states.
Many of the test subjects—ranging from prisoners and hospital patients to everyday citizens—were not informed or did not consent. The project came to light in the 1970s through congressional investigations, most notably the Church Committee, revealing widespread abuses and prompting tighter oversight of intelligence agencies. Despite public disclosures, much about MK-Ultra remains unknown, as many documents were destroyed by the CIA in 1973.
