Dr Delirium and The Edgewood Experiments, Dr James Ketchum

[cactusflinthead 27593]

Ketchum died in 2019. In a decade-old, never-before-seen interview conducted by Dr Delirium director and executive producer Nick Brigden, Ketchum appears frail but lucid. He’s aware of naysayers who can trot out unflattering details about Edgewood, like how he was working alongside Nazi “talent” recruited for their expertise on human experimentation. But he’s confident that he’s on the right side of history with experiments that were harmful to test subjects while serving a greater good.

Brigden says he stayed in touch with Ketchum for years after and the doctor became more forthcoming. When Brigden questioned why after 20 years experimenting and discovering BZ as the ideal incapacitating agent, would they continue experimenting on soldiers for another five or six more years. “Candidly, he said to me, he just found it fascinating. And he liked the lifestyle as well. There was a lot going on there.”
