14-September-2008 12:50:25 - Candy Jones For the figure skater, see Candace Jones. Candy Jones in YANK magazine, 1945 Candy Jones in YANK magazine, 1945 Candy Jones born Jessica Arline Wilcox in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, on December 31, 1925 - January 18, 1990 was an American fashion model, writer and radio talk show host. Jones was raised and educated in Atlantic City, New Jersey.1 In the 1940s and 1950s she was a leading model and pin up girl, and afterwards established a modelling school and wrote several books on modelling and fashion. In 1972, Jones married the popular radio show host Long John Nebel he was her second husband, and became the co-host of his all-night talk-show on WMCA in New York City. The show dealt with paranormal, UFO, and conspiracy theory claims. Controversially, Jones claimed to be a victim of a secret mind control program between about 1960 and 1970.

According to Bain Bain, 1976, Jones reported vivid, conscious memories of physical abuse by her parents, and that she had vague memories of sexual abuse in her youth. She was shuttled between relatives, and her mother, Jones insisted, often kept her cloistered or locked in dark rooms. As a child, Jones said she had an imaginary friend named Arlene to help through her lonely episodes. She grew into an attractive, statuesque young woman standing about 6'4, according to Bennett2, and, changing her name, pursued a career as a fashion model. She was a quick success, becoming a runner up for Miss New Jersey in the Miss America contest. Jones was able to parley this into a hostess job at the main Miss America contest, and a successful career. She was one of the leading pin-up girls of the World War II era: in one month in 1943, she appeared on 11 different magazine covers. During a lengthy United Service Organizations USO tour in the Philippines, Jones fell ill in 1945, and was treated by a doctor who was still alive when Candy publicised her mind-control claims; Donald Bain gave this doctor the pseudonym Gilbert Jensen. According to researcher Martin Cannon, who interviewed Jones before she died in 1990, the Marshall Burger pseudonym in Bain's book who worked with Jensen on the Jones case was actually Dr. William Kroger. First marriage In 1946, Jones married fashion czar Harry Conover, one of the first model agents. They had three sons, and Jones says she didn't realize Conover was bisexual until some years into their marriage. She recognized some people might consider this naive, but Jones insisted her abusive childhood had made her wary of intimate relationships, and though she had many suitors, she was rather sexually inexperienced when she married. She reported that Conover initiated sexual activities with her very few times, and only when he was intoxicated. Without notice, Conover disappeared in late 1958. Jones notified police, and Conover's absence made the news. When he returned after a long binge, Jones sued for divorce in 1959. After the divorce, she was left with $36, and considerable debts.3 Jones opened a modeling school, and she also began appearing regularly on NBC's weekend radio news program Monitor. Second marriage and radio career On 31 December 1972, Jones married radio host Long John Nebel after a one-month courtship they had briefly met decades earlier when Nebel was a photographer. Jones was soon the regular co-host of Nebel's popular overnight radio talk show, which usually discussed various paranormal topics. Mind-control claims Shortly after their marriage, Nebel said, he noted that Jones exhibited violent mood swings, and, at times, seemed to display a different personality. Nebel called this The Voice ... a look, a few moments of bitchiness. The Voice usually vanished rather quickly, but the change was so drastic from Jones's usually pleasant demeanor that Nebel was startled and distressed. Colin Bennett writes, A few weeks after their marriage, Jones did tell Nebel that she had worked for the FBI for some time, adding mysteriously that she might have to go out of town on occasion without giving a reason. This left Nebel wondering whether there was a connection between the 'other' personality within Candy and the strange trips she said she made for the FBI. Nebel began hypnotising Jones, and uncovered an alternate personality named Arlene. Under hypnosis, Jones related a lengthy, elaborate account of her being trained in a CIA mind-control program, often at west-coast colleges and universities. Jones and Nebel eventually recorded hundreds of hours of these hypnotic sessions. Jones said she had some conscious memories of her involvement in the mind-control program: it began in 1960, she said, when an old USO accquaintence an unnamed retired army general asked to use Jones' modeling school as a mailing address to receive some letters and packages. Jones agreed, she said, out of a sense of patriotism. Eventually, said Jones, she was asked to deliver a letter to Oakland, California on a business trip she'd scheduled. Again, Jones reported she agreed, and was surprised to discover the letter was delivered to the same Dr. Jensen who had treated her in the Philippines nearly two decades earlier. Jones said that Jensen and his associate, Dr. Marshall Burger another pseudonym offered hefty amounts of cash if she was willing to engage in further plans; in their earlier meetings, Jensen had noted that Jones was an ideal subject for hypnosis. Jones agreed, she said, because her modeling school was faltering, and she wanted to keep her sons in their costly private schools. During hypnosis sessions, an alternate personality called Arlene was reportedly groomed by Jensen, so that Jones would have no memory of Arlene's activities. Jones allegedly made trips to locations as far away as Taiwan. While hypnotized, Jones claimed that Jensen, Burger and others subjected her to painful tortures in order to test the effectiveness of the alternate personality. Donald Bain writes, Jones would be a messenger for the agency in conjunction with her normal business trips. This type of super spy who would have no memory of her activities was perhaps first suggested by Dr. George Estabrooks in his classic 1943 book, Hypnotism Again with the USO, Jones visited South Vietnam in 1970; she later suspected her visit had some connection to a disastrous attempt to free American prisoners of war from North Vietnam. Jones's and Nebel's claims were first made public in 1974 in Donald Bain's The Control of Candy Jones. Nebel apparently accepted his wife's claims, and openly discussed killing Dr. Jensen in revenge. Several years later, Jones' story gained more notice after the public discolosure of MK-ULTRA in 1977, and Bain's book was republished by Playboy Press. Jones and Bain cited evidence in support of their claims. Bain reported Bain, 1977 that associates in Jones' modeling schools asserted that Jones indeed had some puzzling absences -- supposed business trips where little or no business seemed to be conducted. Bain also writes that another piece of evidence came forth when Candy inadvertently held onto a passport of 'Arlene Grant': Candy in a dark wig and dark makeup. Jones says she had no memory of dressing up in such an outfit, or of posing for a passport in a different name. Bain also claimed that a tape recorded answering machine message was left on Jones and Nebel's home telephone number on July 3, 1973: This is Japan Airlines calling on oh-three July at 4.10 p.m. ... Please have Miss Grant call 759-9100 ... she is holding a reservation on Japan Airlines Flight 5, for the sixth of July, Kennedy to Tokyo, with an option on to Taipei. This is per Cynthia that we are calling. When Jones telephoned the number and asked for Cynthia, she was told that no one of that name worked at the reservations desk. Bain specualtes that Cynthia might have been Arlene's CIA contact, or perhaps a code word meant to trigger a hypnotic suggestion. Additionally, Brian Haughton notes that There was also a letter Jones wrote to her attorney, William Williams, to cover herself in case she died or disappeared suddenly or under unusual circumstances; she told him she was not at liberty to reveal exactly what she was involved in. Bain wrote to Williams who corroborated this fact. 4 Its also worth noting that in 1971, an article by Estabrooks was published in Science Digest, wherein he openly discussed the successful creation of amnesiac couriers of the type Jones claimed to have been. 5 Dr. Herbert Spiegel, a nationally-recognized hypnosis expert, wrote a foreword to the Playboy Press ion of The Control of Candy Jones. Spiegel opined that though Nebel was an amateur hypnotist, he had in fact hypnotized Jones well, and had seemed to avoid planting ideas or leading Jones' recollection. Spiegel was not convinced that the entire story was accurate, but he thought that the corroborate evidence Jones, Bain, and Nebel had uncovered made it difficult to dismiss the account outright.
