History of Criminal Hypnosis
Criminal hypnosis cannot be studied in normal experiments,
because the experiment would be unethical. Perpetrators do
not write books about the crimes they committed. Part I of
this book contains four major case histories of criminal hypnosis
which have been researched either by psychiatrists or investigative
journalists. Each of those case histories are clear-cut, well-studied,
detailed cases of hypnotic abuse-deceitful, amnesic, chronic,
and damaging. Scattered throughtout the book, many other significant
cases involving criminal mind control are also described.
For example, Z,
in Germany of the 1920s, finally figured out what hit him
and never quit trying to get the truth out. Mrs. E. suffered
in Heidelberg until her husband called the cops and Dr. Mayer
extablished the evidence which sent two predatory hypnotists
to jail. A guru hypnotized his cellmate, Palle
Hardwick, in a Danish prison, making him a puppet who would
later rob banks and murder because of hypnotic conditioning.
Palles police psychiatrist, Dr. Reiter, solved the case
and sent the criminal hypnotist to jail. Candy Jones, a popular
model and World War II pinup girl, was trapped into becoming
an unknowing guinea pig in CIA experiments on narcohypnosis,
personality-splitting, and torture - until her unconscious
revolted and began to serve truth and freedom instead.
The case histories in this
book also illustrate the development of mind-control technologies
over the past two-hundred and fifty years. The personal characteristics
of an unethical hypnotist also evolved over those years. Low-class
predators looking for easy profit by a super-scam are always
around. The free-lance scientific researchers of 19th century
Europe, however, have been joined by anonymous secret agency
hirelings, or graduate school bad boys directed by covert
organization-man MDs and PhDs. All have sought the unholy
grail of absolute control in absolute secrecy for personal
profit, or for whomever is paying.
