CENTERTON, Ark. -- The mayor of an Arkansas town resigned on Wednesday, claiming he was abducted and brainwashed by Satan worshippers nearly three decades ago.

Centerton Mayor Ken Williams said he has been living under an assumed name for nearly 30 years. He had been mayor since 2001.

Williams told authorities he was born Don LaRose and that in the mid-1970s, he was a preacher in Indiana. He said he was abducted and brainwashed into forgetting all about his life as Don LaRose.



It was a double-life he had never acknowledged, Williams said, because he didn't even realize it existed until he had recently taken a truth-serum injection.

As Williams regained his memory, he said, he realized that he had a wife and two kids but that he had decided to leave and take on a new identity to protect them.

"I had no choice. The choice was to watch my family killed before my eyes or go with these people, and I chose instead to run," Williams said.

He wouldn't explain from who he was running, saying only that he had been brainwashed.

"I had multiple shock treatments," Williams said. "It took five years to get my memory back."

Williams said he took his current identity in 1980 when he moved to Centerton. His full name -- Bruce Kent Williams -- was taken from a man who died in a car crash back in 1958, he said.

"What happened in 1980 -- whether it was right or wrong -- I did it under the threat of my family and for my own survival," he said.

The information went public, Williams said, because he runs a Web site about Don LaRose and his disappearance. LaRose's former family found the Web site and started inquiring about its author. They found the site registered to a Ken Williams and went from there.

Williams said his current wife is standing by him and the two of them want to continue living in Centerton. He said he plans to continue living as Ken Williams.

Also, his resignation was signed with two names, he said.

According to police, Williams is under no investigation for any wrongdoing.


I am not sure what to think about this. How about y'all?.

Now that is a strange story.
Especially tough for the former family who found him and he turns away from them.

Woah. Here's a link that works:

Sounds to me like Dude had a psychotic break and is now delusional. Or something. I find it highly unlikely that he was really abducted by Satanists 30 years ago and brainwashed into forgetting his identity.

No way. The human mind just doesn't work like that.

Here is the video

REALLY if you know how exactly human mind works ,could you answer me few questions,why some people are spending huge money to trying understand how is working,if you know ,could you explain to me how human brain is working exactly,if you discount something ,you must know how is working to say it's impossible.So please ,explain it to me.

Has there ever been a documented case of someone being "brainwashed" into forgetting their identity?

What makes you think that's possible?

Shock therapy has been shown to produce severe amnesia. Inducing amnesia and then brainwashing a subject is entirely possible....though I'm not saying that I believe his story about satanists.

I agree. And what's this truth serum thing and shock treatment for 5 years thing? I mean... why would he do that? Sounds like a 5 year long drug trip, which can make a lot of people believe any number of crazy shit.

Video removed. Damn. Wanted to see that.
