Join Kelli as she goes over yet another example of US doctors experimenting on their own people.
Starting in the 1950s, dermatology Dr. Albert Kligman came to the Holmesburg Prison in Philadelphia and experimented on its prisoners. What started as a simple cure for an athlete's foot outbreak turned into a decades-long series of experiments, ranging from testing lotions and cremes to hallucinogenic drugs to the toxic compounds found in Agent Orange.
Though the experiments eventually stopped in 1974, it was more or less swept under the rug, despite prisoner/victims filing lawsuits. But thanks to the work of men like Allen Hornblum, and the victims and their families who never gave up, the horrors at what happened at Holmesburg are coming to light.
