The Franklin case very much is tied into the Gosch case. Before Gary Caradori attempted to fly back from Chicago he phoned his wife and told her he had the "smoking gun" for the Franklin case and that he also found out what happened to Johnny Gosch. However as stated in a previous post he never made it back to Nebraska because his plane went down.miles_draken said:I don't care much about the whole conspiracy thing surrounding the supposed Franklin cover-up. I started this thread with one thing in mind, finding out what happened to Johnny Gosch. This whole Gannon thing that has come out in Washington now is very intriuging, but if he won't submit to DNA testing, which he has refused to do, then there isn't much further that part of the case will go. No matter how much he looks like Johnny's age progression, DNA is the only thing that would clear this all up. Does anyone know where Johnny's father is? It seems he isn't involved in the search like Noreen is. I don't know if this whole thing is high level government conspiracy or a bunch of nuts trying to make a buck, but I do know that a child was kidnapped in 1982. What happened to him?
There are a few other notes of interest that have taken place recently since the whole "Jeff Gannon" scandal broke the headlines.
First of all Hunter S Thompson supposedly committed suicide, you may wonder what in the world he has to do with anything. Well Paul Bonacci testified that on one of his "sexual adventures" that he took with Larry King he was flown to Vegas where they picked up Mr. Thompson before flying out to a resort in the redwoods of California where he and other boys were sexually molested. He claims that Mr. Thompson was in charge of making the "snuff film" of what took place. Now it would be easy to dismiss this as a fairy tale but we now know that what Bonacci was describing is in fact Bohemian Grove (DeCamp didn't even know at the time what Bohemian Grove was). Unless Bonacci had actually been to Bohemian Grove how in the world would he have been able to accurately describe it? Also if Mr. Thompson was involved and he knew that Gannon was in fact Gosch then surely he knew that his involvement may come out, so either he committed suicide or someone killed him (a whole other topic.) It is also a strange coincidence a recent article posted on Gannon's site was titles "Fear and Loathing in the Press Room", which could be a reference to Thompson's film "Fear and Loathing in Las vegas".
Anyways if you have never heard of Bohemian Grove then you need to check out the following link (which features prominent politicians at the club):

Second, the man that Caradori met in Chicago was Rusty Nelson. Rusty was hired by Larry King to be his personal photographer. Rusty supposedly had some compromising pictures of these powerful and prominent men that were used to blackmail them. Rusty is still alive (surprisingly) however again right after the Gannon in the Whitehouse story broke he was arrested once again. There is an article that explains Mr. Nelson's side of the story at this link:

Also two stories recently appeared in Des Moines area papers, the first was in the Des Moines Register:

The second was in a more independent paper:

In an interesting note not only was the author of the second article fired but the paper closed it's doors and changed it's name after the article was published (I confirmed this myself by calling their office):
