The Posthumous execution of Oliver Cromwell




History tells us that Oliver Cromwell, Lord Protector of England during the country’s brief stint as a republic, died of complications due to malaria and kidney stone disease. How then, did his chopped-off head end up in private collections and museums for centuries to come?

Well, after his death, the country decided to ditch the republic and asked Charles II to return to England and restore the Stuart monarchy in 1660. Charles returned, but not without a serious grudge against Cromwell and all those who’d executed his father.

Charles put together a kill list with a series of most wanted names on it. One of which was Cromwell but since he was already dead, the next best thing to enact revenge was to have him exhumed and posthumously executed.

Cromwell’s head was stuck on a spike in Westminster Hall for the next 30 years. It then spent 250-odd years being bought and sold by various collectors until it was finally buried in 1960 at Sidney Sussex College in Cambridge.

August 9, 1969: The Manson Family Murders Begin



On August 9, 1969, the Manson Family killed five people inside this house at 10050 Cielo Drive.

Pregnant actress Sharon Tate and four of her friends are killed by members of the Manson Family, the cult led by Charles Manson.

The gruesome murders took place in the Los Angeles home of Tate and her husband, filmmaker Roman Polanski. Manson allegedly ordered the killings because the previous occupant of the house, music producer Terry Melcher, had refused to give him a record contract. Manson and three of the killers were sentenced to life in prison for the murders.

Charles Manson and MKUltra

Background on MKUltra
MKUltra was a covert CIA program aimed at exploring mind control and behavior modification through various means, including drug experimentation. The program has been widely criticized for its ethical violations and lack of consent from participants.

Manson's Connection to MKUltra
Speculation of Influence: Some researchers and authors, including Tom O'Neill, have suggested that Charles Manson may have been influenced by MKUltra experiments. This speculation arises from Manson's time in the Haight-Ashbury area during the late 1960s, where he and his followers frequented a clinic associated with MKUltra psychiatrist Dr. Louis Jolyon West.

Lack of Definitive Proof: While there are theories linking Manson to MKUltra, there is no concrete evidence to confirm that he was a direct victim of the program. The connections remain largely speculative, with many loose threads and unanswered questions.

Summary of Theories

  • Manson may have been affected by mind control research during his time in the Haight-Ashbury area.
  • Drug Use Manson's use of LSD and other drugs aligns with MKUltra's interests in altering mental states.
  • No Direct Evidence Despite the theories, definitive proof linking Manson as a victim of MKUltra is lacking.
In conclusion, while there are intriguing theories about Charles Manson's potential connection to MKUltra, the evidence remains speculative and unproven.
