I'm not sure about the Tate/LaBianca murders being part of CHAOS. And I do not think highly of Adam Golightly as a researcher.
But as far as LSD and the CIA, in my view Acid Dreams is one of the most overlooked books of the eighties. It was that book that enlightened me about Tim Leary. And Ronald Stark has all the earmarks of being a deep cover, highly protected, off the books CIA agent.
How about this for just one random sentence near the end of the book, "Furthermore, Stark was tight with the Brotherhood leaders who contributed money to the Weather Underground for Timothy Leary's prison escape." (p. 280) That's just one among many.
But let's not concentrate everything on the Tate/LaBianca aspect.
I mean there is a lot in there about Bulgiosi's aborted political career, and how he was seen as being a much too polarizing figure in Los Angeles. And how could he have been so dumb as to get involved with the whole Milkman and Cardwell scandals. Which in essence killed his political aspirations. I also later found out that Caballero, Atkins' lawyer, ended up being his campaign manager for one of his races. Coincidence or conspiracy?
And then finally, how about his saying that police frame ups of black Americans was not at all common.
LOL
And then the Rampart Division scandal breaks out!
​Good timing Vince.
