Not followed this case for a long time. Any new info or suspects?
I personally think he died very soon after the abduction. I can’t see how the other paperboys abduction and disappearance isn’t linked.
The fact that a couple of people employed at the paper were molesting paperboys makes you think they would be prime suspects , but it’s a big leap from that to kidnap and murder ?
If it was someone not local , would they return a couple years later to do it again ?
Look into The Franklin Scandal Coverup (Lawrence E. King) and Colonel Michael Aquino former CIA who was involved in may Psy Ops operations. He is also the founder of the Temple of Set which he founded after parting from the Church of Satan. He and Anton Lavey were close friends until they had disagreement and Aquino went on to form his own church
In most cases, children are usually killed within 3 hours of an abduction. (see link below) The main reason I think he survived was because Paul Bonacci came forth and had information. Two other children came forward also... Alisha
Owens ( who was convicted of eight counts of perjury beyond a reasonable doubt, this was a message to all victims to keep your mouth shut) and Troy Boner (whose brother was murdered suspciously after he came out speaking against King and other politicians), then Troy was found dead of a overdose at a later date. A common theme when speaking out is witnesses start dying off or "commit suicide"
Bonacci also admitted he helped abduct Johnny when he was a teen himself. He also spoke of several things to Noreen Gosch about Johnny that were never revealed to the public. Bonacci also lead investigators from America's Most Wanted to a house in Colorado and showed John Walsh and the crew the underground area they kept the children and there was also initials of children carved into the wood.
I respect John Walsh for even covering the case because the media swept it under the carpet.
One final note: Many people will dismiss Paul Bonacci because he is considered a registered sex offender. BUT, the reason being, is because when he himself was a sex slave as a child and teen he was forced into doing those acts. The labeling of him as a sex offender was another attempt to dismiss and quiet the victims in order to continue to protect people of power involved at the time.

National Child Kidnapping Facts
Kidnapped Child Homicide Statistics
The other study that is often quoted by media and by professionals in the missing child field was conducted by the Attorney General of Washington State in 1997.
The findings were that among abducted children who were murdered, "in 74 percent of the cases the victims were dead within three hours after abduction." What is not generally reported is the fact that this statistic refers to a very small group of children abducted by violent or predatory kidnappers (approximately 1 in every 10,000 reports of a missing child).
So yes, it is important to find the child quickly, in case the kidnapping is one of that small group. But it is incorrect to assume that 74% of kidnapped children are at risk of being killed if not found within 3 hours.
