The Phoenix Program was a "civilian assassination" program in Vietnam, that involved cannibalism, posing and mutilation of corpses, etc. The conspiracy theory is that the "serial killer phenomenon," which emerged at that time and shortly thereafter was an outgrowth of that program, on US soil. Back then it is said to have been under the rubric of The Process, Church of the Final Judgement, of which the Manson Group (The Family, by Ed Sanders) and the Son of Sam group (The Ultimate Evil by Maury Terry) were said to be cells. As well as the "Monster of Florence" group, iirc (Programmed to Kill by Dave McGowan.) As McGowan points out, a number of these original "serial killers" were themselves "former" Phoenix operatives. Santa Muerte is known to be active amongst drug cartels. The conspiracy theory further hypothesizes that there was covert narcotics trafficking through Air America in Vietnam and the subsequent Iran/Contra Affair in the United States. Let's say you accidentally discover the government or your local police are involved in illicit trafficking of narcotics, weapons, children or whatnot. Is there a chance you might wake up dead shortly thereafter? Of course this is all wild eyed, unconfirmed heresay. On Thu, Feb 20, 2014 at 7:13 PM, M. S.
