## Resource

A shocking investigation into decades of controversial psychological experiments that attempted to erase and reprogram the human mind. Project Mind Control begins with the harrowing story of Lana Ponting, one of the last-known survivors of one of Canada’s most notorious psychiatric institutions, The Allan Institute. Her memories are fractured but what she remembers is enough to expose something far bigger than one hospital. From the makers of Codename Badger, criminal psychologist Dr Julia Shaw follows Lana’s story into a shadow world of covert CIA involvement, missing Indigenous children, and allegations that orphaned and vulnerable kids were supplied for experimentation. This is episode one, for the rest of this series search for Project Mind Control wherever you get your podcasts or go to https://alwaystruecrime.komi.io/ Hosted on Acast.
