In the biography, In Search of J. D. Salinger by Ian Hamilton, Salinger’s association with U.S. Intelligence is uncovered.
J. D. Salinger's classic novel The Catcher in the Rye may have been used as a “mechanism of control” in the murder of John Lennon, and the attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan. If you remember, The Catcher in the Rye was found in the possession of both Hinkley and Chapman after their respective crimes. In fact, prior to the New York City police's arrest of Chapman, he was found sitting against the Dakota Building, glazed over and zombie-like, reading Salinger’s book.
That is not to say that Salinger wrote Catcher deliberately for that purpose. But it is possible that it has been used as a triggering device. [A triggering device sets off a post-hypnotic suggestion, unleashing within its mind-controlled subjects the directive to kill].
According to Hamilton’s biography, Defense Intelligence used the services of Salinger during World War II within the Counter Intelligence Corps (CIC). His time was spent mainly in the interrogation of captured Nazis. Later on, toward the end of the war, Salinger was involved in the denazification of Germany. Denazification could be taken to mean a code word suggestive of the importation of high-level Nazi spies into the highest ranks of the American Intelligence Community under the sponsorship of Project Paperclip, the top secret operation, which at the war’s end, smuggled hundreds of Nazis out of Germany. These “reformed” Nazis were then given new identities, in time forming the core of the new U.S. intelligence, defense and aerospace establishments.
According to the late conspiracy researcher Mae Brussell, it was this American/Nazi association that reformed the old Office of Strategic Services (OSS) into its new and improved Nazi-ised version: the Central Intelligence Agency. Perhaps, in this occurrence, Re-nazification would have been a more appropriate term. From this point of reference, it would be far-fetched to think that Salinger was part of this nefarious plot; and going even further to suggest that under the auspices of this new American/Nazi Intelligence regime he wrote The Catcher in the Rye as a “mechanism of control” to be employed in CIA mind-control experiments such as Project Artichoke and MK-Ultra.
The Catcher in the Rye has been used as a “mechanism of control” in the same way the music of The Beatles was perhaps used to not only program Mark David Chapman, but the malevolent Manson clan, as well. According to Vincent Bugliosi in his best seller Helter Skelter, the Manson clan used off the wall interpretations of Beatles songs to lead them on their killing spree through the Hollywood Hills in the summer of 1969. Moreover, according to Mae Brussell and other researchers, the Manson Family was nothing less than a full blown CIA Mind Control experiment designed to cast in a bad light, the whole counterculture movement of the late ‘60s.
Admittedly, these are vague connections, nevertheless, areas that need to be explored in depth, especially when one considers the number of Nazis introduced into the U.S. Intelligence Community, and the subsequent conception of mind control programs redolent of Nazi inspiration and influence. Mind control programming seems to repeatedly rear its repulsive head where major political assassinations have occurred. When these similar patterns turn up time and again, we are forced to ask ourselves if these are merely coincidence, or planned procedures carried out to achieve a specific agenda.
Under further speculation, not only can these “mechanisms of control” be used in programming minds to kill political leaders and activists, they can also be used as a method to damage the reputation of the likes of Salinger or The Beatles by demonstrating to the world at large that such works of art (The Catcher in the Rye and The White Album) are dangerous to the minds of our country’s youth, supposedly compelling them to madness and murder.

I don't know about the truth of any of this, but it's interesting anyway.
