Eric Olson

Eric Olson is the main investigative source and leading narrative voice for the docudrama miniseries “Wormwood,”. Eric is the son of Frank Olson, an American biological warfare scientist and Central Intelligence Agency employee, who died in 1953 in what was initially called an “accident,”. Twenty-two years later, in 1975, the CIA claimed that Olson’s death had in fact been an LSD suicide. Subsequent investigations by Eric and others have shown that the LSD story was yet another layer of coverup of what was in fact a brazen murder — a secret execution.
