Was Eli Black, CEO United Fruit, pushed out of the window? Part Five.
Black's fall out of the 44th floor of the Pan Am building is similar to CIA scientist Frank Olson's 'jump' from the 13th floor of the Statler Hotel.
Twenty years before Eli Black hurled to his death from the 44th floor of the Pan Am building Frank Olson, a biological warfare scientist for the CIA, fell to his death from the 13th floor of the Statler hotel in New York City. The United States government told the Olson family that he had committed suicide. At the time the family had no choice but to accept the horrific news. Slowly, however, the story changed. First, the CIA admitted he had been unknowingly given LSD which they were using for their MK-Ultra mind control experiments. Then the family learned that he had become increasingly upset about his work and wanted to leave the CIA—making him a great security risk for them.
