Primary record
on the verbal orders of Dr. Sidney Gottlieb, Chief of TSD.
The drug had been placed in the bottle by a CIA officer, Dr. Robert Lashbrook, as part of an experiment he and Dr. Sidney Gottlieb performed at a meeting of Army and CIA scientists.
Dr. Gottlieb has testified, and former Director Helms has confirmed, that in ordering the records destroyed, Dr. Gottlieb was carrying out the verbal order of then DCI Helms.
Present practice is to maintain no records of the planning and approval of test programs.
In sum, the agency failed to uncover these particular documents in 1973, in the process of attempting to destroy them.
