It has been awhile since I posted to this thread, I believe it was back in No. 2 edition of Johnny Gosch thread.
I have been a supporter of Noreens theory all along and have checked back on her site for updates off and on over the years. Having lived close to where this happened and visiting their often as a child the case just stuck in my mind. After I started researching it in 2004 I found all these new developments that just seemed crazy. If Noreen is to be believed that her son actually visited her as an adult then I think the rest of it bears consideration at the very least.
I wonder why all these people who are coming forward about the Franklin Credit Union scandal and the pedophile rings and missing paperboys in Des Moines Iowa aren't being taken serious by mainstream media? Is it too much for us to swallow?
Noreen Gosch gets lumped in with the 9/11 Conspiracy Theorists at this point, in the eyes of the mainstream anyway.
As I get older and find myself laughing off 9/11 and JFK conspiracies I wonder to myself why I still believe this woman. I think because she has always just wanted to find her son, I don't see or believe that she has profited in any way from this event, in fact it seems to have ruined her family. I think I would know my adult son if he was 12 when he disappeared. I remember him showing her a birthmark for proof or something when he allegedly visited her.
9/11 - terrorists
JFK - Lee Harvey Oswald
Johnny Gosch - ? Well the jury in my mind is still out on this one. A part of me believes they will find his remains locally some day. But I still at least partially believe Noreen Gosch. Even if it turns out Johnny was killed the day he was taken, she hasn't harmed anyone with her crusade, and in fact has helped bring awareness to the very serious problem of child abduction.
Sorry I rambled, first post in quite some time.
On 9/11 I was an OR manager in CA. I worked with a Nurse Anesthetist, who had been in the Air Force and who's wife was well connected to Washington DC, as she was head of Air Force Housing in CA, often traveling to Washington DC for conferences, congressional hearings etc.
On 911, he was receiving phone calls while we were in surgery, about the situation. Prior to the plane being shot down that morning, this man told us it was going to happen. His friend stated that the 'loss of a few American citizens, was outweighed by the safety of those who worked in the White House and the destruction of the White House, as that was a blow that would emotionally harm a larger number of Americans'.
For an interesting view of what happened and how it transpired, watch 'In Plane Site'. I was a believer that there was a conspiracy, before I saw this, as I saw and heard the conversations that transpired, but even if I hadn't been, this movie would have made me think hard about what is reality and what is perception of events.
As for John F. Kennedy, government experts could not fire the weapon Oswald used, as rapidly as he had, let alone taking the time to fire at a moving target. I also can not possibly believe in the magic 'pristine' bullet.
As usual, my opinion only, but if I believe these versions of popular events, how can I not believe what a mother says, concerning the loss of her child. She has no reason to lie, where as others involved do.
