| [[Harold Blauer]]

| rowspan="2"|[[New York City, New York]], US
| January 8, 1953
| 1987
| <small>Retired [[tennis]] player who was unwittingly injected with [[3,4-Methylenedioxyamphetamine]] (MDA) after checking himself in to the New York Psychiatric Institute for depression. The experiment was part of the CIA's secret [[Brainwashing|mind-control]] program, [[MKULTRA]], and Blauer's medical records were altered to hide the real cause of his death. MKULTRA was revealed to the public in 1975, and Blauer's estate was awarded $700,000 in damages in 1987.</small>

| [[Frank Olson]]
| November 28, 1953
| 1976
| <small>A CIA bacteriologist and biological warfare expert who was unwittingly dosed with [[LSD]] by his supervisor. Nine days later, Olson had a nervous breakdown and jumped from his 13th-story room at [[Hotel Pennsylvania]]. Olson's family agreed to withdraw a [[wrongful death]] lawsuit against the agency in exchange for an out-of-court settlement of $750,000 and apologies from President [[Gerald Ford]] and CIA director William Colby. Olson's children ordered a new autopsy in 1994 and tried to reopen the case as murder in 1996 and 2012, but both requests were denied because of the previous deal.</small>

| [[Gerald Mason]]
| [[El Segundo, California]], US
| 1957
| 2003
| <small>Two police officers were shot when they pulled over a car for running a red light. Mason was arrested 45 years later after a computerized [[fingerprint]] database identified him as the purchaser of the murder weapon. At the time, he had just raped a 15-year-old girl at gunpoint at a local [[lovers' lane]], and he killed the officers to avoid prosecution for the crime. Mason's back still bore the scar left by a bullet fired by the officers as he fled.</small>
