Many times in the past, the Superhounds of DU have gone to work on a story, pulling at those loose threads. I think it's time to release the Superhounds again because if it's true, this is the biggest story of the Bush years. Even if substantial portions of it don't check out, it will have served as an organizer for the inquiry, and I'm sure the inquiry itself will turn things up whether or not the original Arrigo story turns out to be watertight.
Some lines of inquiry suggest themselves instantly. The first of these is, Who is this woman?
A sister claims that she has "episodes of paranoid schizophrenia," and this assertion is being used to attack her--as is her promulgation of a theory that the CIA developed a vaccine for AIDS.
Paranoid schizophrenia is unlikely in her case--people with this condition are typically too cognitively disorganized to convince anyone of anything except that they are psychotic. Think Mercer here. Delusional Disorder is a more realistic possibility. People with this diagnosis are generally pretty intact mentally, except for their delusions, which tend to be well-worked-out, non-bizarre, and internally consistent. In fact, only the falsity of the delusion distinguishes them from normal people who actually know something really weird.
Here are some purported crtedentials: Sue Arrigo, MD California Medical License G 50197 Former member of the AFIO (Association of Former Intelligence Officers ) My cover was blown within international intelligence organizations over 5 years ago. Only the public has been kept in the dark, as per usual. I am a non-violent activist, currently attending the UN Disarmament Conference as an indepedent observer to protest the US's first strike pre-emptive war policy.
Does any of this check out, or not? She is a licensed physician in CA. Paranoid schizophrenics tend not to retain their physicians' licenses.

Is stuff like the following just nuts, or is she freaked out by real experiences?:
http://www.ecapc.org/Registry_detail.asp?Type=Ind&ContactID=2171 "The individual is handicapped by coming face to face with a conspiracy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists." --- J. Edgar Hoover, former head of the FBI As a survivor of torture in the United States, I am writing this article---I am a California physician with over forty years of recurrent torture and continuous enslavement by CIA and US military agencies. My father was a US military advisor, a “counterinsurgency specialist”, in Korea and Taiwan. Many of the children, like myself, who were trained as child spies by the US government had fathers in the military. As unbelievable as it sounds, the documentation that the US used American children as mind-controlled spies against their will is quite extensive (See MKULTRA : The CIA's Top Secret Program in Human Experimentation and Behavior Modification by George Andrews. Or see an online overview of MKULTRA at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MKULTRA . ) “In 1951, the CIA decided to coordinate efforts with the US Army, Navy, and Air Force, and Project Artichoke was born. A 1952 memorandum describes its mission as follows: Can we get control of an individual to the point where he will do our bidding against his will and even against such fundamental laws of nature such as self-preservation?” ----Pg 128 Psychiatry and the CIA by Harvey M. Weinstein, MD
Happy hunting.
