Investigative Value
John Kiriakou is a former CIA officer and whistleblower. His relevance here is contextual, not evidentiary: an interview in which he described a historical CIA MK-Ultra hypnosis experiment is cited in the file's Gov Mind Control thread, which examines whether documented government behavioral-control programs are relevant to how a directed patsy could theoretically be produced. Kiriakou is not connected to the events of September 10, 2025; his account is used only as background on historical government capabilities.
The broader thread sits alongside the Proof Intel Services material.

What is reported
- On the Julian Dorey Podcast, John Kiriakou reportedly described a CIA MK-Ultra experiment in which a "walk-in" source in London was placed under hypnosis by agency psychologists and a licensed hypnotist, and was reportedly controlled to the point of keeping an arm raised through a roughly 3-hour session while revealing details he could not consciously recall.
- The file itself notes this account describes a historical program and flags a minor discrepancy in the recalled duration; it also states that no X posts were found tying Kiriakou to this specific claim in connection with the Kirk case.
- Counterpoint: This is offered strictly as historical background on documented government capabilities. Nothing in the file connects Kiriakou or the MK-Ultra material to the actual events at UVU; the relevance is thematic and speculative, not evidentiary.
Open Questions
- Is Kiriakou's described MK-Ultra hypnosis account independently documented in the historical record?
- Do any established behavioral-control capabilities have any actual bearing on the events of September 10, 2025, or is the link purely thematic?
- What is the primary source for the specific London hypnosis anecdote he describes?
