Former CIA Operative Accused of Assaulting Women Recruits Top-Notch Memory Specialists


Brian Raymond, a former CIA officer, has been accused of sexually assaulting 25 women. The 47-year-old is alleged to have drugged his victims before violating them, with some of these heinous acts reportedly taking place in embassy-leased houses across various countries.

Raymond’s defense strategy has raised eyebrows as he enlisted the services of renowned memory experts who have previously testified in high-profile cases involving Harvey Weinstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and Bill Cosby.

Among these experts is Dr. Deborah Davis, a psychology specialist from the University of Nevada, known for her studies on the impact of alcohol on human memory.

Dr. Davis’ previous testimonies have centered around the concept that memories can fade or distort over time due to various factors such as societal changes or movements like #MeToo.

She argued these factors can influence how individuals perceive and remember past events. Her expertise was sought in Bill Cosby’s civil sexual assault case in June 2022, where she made similar arguments.

Despite her testimony, Cosby lost the case and was ordered to pay $500,000 in damages.

Another expert enlisted by Raymond’s defense is Dr. Elizabeth Loftus, a memory science specialist. Loftus previously testified that suggestive activities can lead to the creation of false memories of abuse.

She was paid $600 an hour for her testimony at Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial, where she emphasized that memory doesn’t function like a recording device, but is rather constructed during retrieval.

The accusations against Raymond are grave.

He is alleged to have recorded his unconscious victims in the nude, forcibly opening their eyelids and groping their bodies.

Investigators discovered more than 500 photos and videos on Raymond’s iCloud account, allegedly showing him filming unconscious women, many of whom he met on dating apps.

In a surprising twist, Raymond initially pleaded guilty to sexual abuse and transporting obscene material in July 2021.

However, he later sought to withdraw his plea, citing medical reasons related to an enlarged prostate and the side effects of his medication, which caused erectile dysfunction.

Raymond’s trial is set for November 8, but his attorneys are attempting to delay it until April 2024.
