“Most of you don’t remember that in the mid 80’s (I believe it was 1986) America’s most wanted asked for help from Viewers in solving the case of the Oakland County Child Killer.

Facts released during the show included hairs found in the vehicle of a potential suspect. At the time, the FBI believed the OCCK had a female accomplice.

The bodies were not just thrown out on the side of the road to be found… They were washed clean, the nails cleaned, and the bodies dressed in their clothes all nice and neat. The bodies were said to have been laid with care. Back then, it was believed that these facts, along with others, portrayed the profile of a female or female accomplice.”

Just like Ricky Chadek here in Omaha. Same MO as many other abductions. That is why I believe my father, stepmother, and their friends were involved with these murders.

http://www2.tbo.com/news/news/2012/jul/24/4/memeto1-largo-puppeteer-hit-with-child-porn-conspi-ar-439761/?referer=None&shorturl=http://tbo.ly/MYEL84

http://www.ketv.com/news/local-news/Police-seek-paddleboater-on-missing-Iowa-cousins/-/9674510/15642060/-/nf5plc/-/index.html

The Omaha FBI is investigating this crime- and they are notorious for failing to solve crimes against children. This is one more example of their complete inefficiency when it comes to these type of crimes- and it was this behavior that helped the scandals surrounding children in the 80s and 90s go away- as they botched things up over and over- while stealthily covering their tracks. This one, however, is going to be much more difficult to explain away- esp. when it comes out that they have probably been taken by a pedophile ring. Considering that we are about the learn the same thing about Penn State that was true about Franklin Credit Union in that young boys were being pimped out to rich donors, it seems to me that the pendulum has swung back the other way, and it is going to be much harder for the False Memory people to hide and protect the NAMBLA type behavior that seems to be so prevalent in our society- for is it not said that it’s “sex before eight or it is too late,” or perhaps the old adage- “if it doesn’t bleed, it doesn’t seed,” both of which I grew up with. The problem with this is that people are starting to grow wary of people having sex with children- and it is only time before there is a serious backlash against those who have helped make all of this possible. The Omaha FBI, the Nebraska State Patrol, and the OPD are ALL just as guilty when you look at all of this- and this cover up of inefficiency needs to be exposed before ANY MORE HANDSOME RETIREMENT PACKAGES ARE HANDED OUT!

Another question- and I just have to ask, why is Noreen trusting these people when she has gone on for thirty years as to how they covered up her son’s abduction- and why is the media focusing on Noreen now- when her case was, as she said- thirty years old and no one cares. But of course- considering that Etan Patz was one of two boys on the nation’s milk cartons, the media and the world does care about the fact that Johnny Gosch was the SECOND first boy on the milk cartons, as they printed two different boys at a time, so to say that no one cares when the media is once again focusing on all of this is nonsense. However- I just want to point out- as you can see on DavidShurter.com, that there is a much different point of view from someone who was actually personally involved with the people involved in Franklin- which I detail in my book Rabbit Hole- A Satanic Ritual Abuse Survivor’s Story, and by the postings I have on my blog- you can see that it has caused some distention. For this I offer no apologies. The official story is bogus, and it makes no sense when you compare it to what was really going on here in Omaha. I have been told that I need to leave Paul Bonnaci, Noreen Gosch, and John DeCamp alone- however- it is their long list of crazy making that inindates the whole Franklin investigation, and ALL of it needs to be re-examined with a new eye so that the public can decipher what exactly was taking place here in Omaha, so that we can begin to prevent situations like Penn State and the Sandusky’s of the future.

Sent to me via email…which also went to Noreen Gosch

I think it is also important that someone point out that tiny little truth written by DeCamp himself…….he did not find the abuse but was handed the file with the information by the LaRouche Organization. This was not given to him until after it was thoroughly reviewed for accuracy. The fact that this was an “intelligence” operation is further supported by DeCamps close relationship with Wm. Colby. The entrenchment of this perverse behavior in our intelligence community goes WAY back. Children are useful tools to these people, both in terms of getting their own perverse sexual kicks and also as a means of controlling public officials who have a penchant for young flesh. The myth of DeCamp being some sort of hero to these children needs to be debunked. He was used as well – according to himself. What we don’t know is what they had on DeCamp, or what they offered him, to get him to agree to bring the information to light and who he was actually working for.

Lukej: he is not factual at all.
1. Noreen spoke to his sister once… it was approx. 7:30 pm … not the middle of the night

1. My sis told a much different tale- and I believe my sis more. Also- other people fielded the phone calls and say a different tale as well.

2. John Gosch Sr. did have an imposter for Noreen, twenty five people all met her and was told she was noreen Gosch. She now lives in Texas and had a stroke when she discovered her photo was in Noreen’s Book.

2. i can’t even comment on the validity of this- although it sounds incredible.

3. David originally called Noreen to talk to her, Noreen did not call him.

3. This is true. Noreen also told me that my father called her months before, but she didn’t understand what he was trying to say until she met me and heard what I was saying.

4. David gets most all of his information from his “shama
n” when the individual goes into a trance and spews forth trivia, David then runs around like Paul Revere and blasts as though it is truth.

4. This is ridiculous- but it is also an indication that Noreen has been in touch with my father’s family- as this is THEIR argument as well. No one who reads my book will believe this statement.

5. David Shurter wants to discredit Paul Bonacci’s account of Johnny’s kidnapping, which is well documented.

5. No it isn’t- it is just a collection of tapes that he talks about details of the stuff that is going on. There is NO DOUBT IN MY MIND- that Paul was involved- just not the way he makes everyone think.

6. He seems to derive great fun out of doing this and making all these claims however he has no truth in his statements.

6. I have no humor with any of this, as anyone who knows me will tell you. Noreen is a bad guy in this- in my opinion- and I know for a fact that she is a liar. The fact that she must post under a fake name is indication of this.

7. Noreen has done more for missing and abused children in 30 years than Shurter will ever do.

7. Give me some time Noreen- but the issue is that people are starting to listen to the truth- and your story simply does not make sense.

8. Noreen does not communicate with David at all, yet he continues to attack … only dogs do that or wild animals.

8. Yeah- Noreen doesn’t attack- but then- what is this post that she posted? It is indication that she is out of touch with her own actions. I write these posts because Noreen can not HELP but respond- and it helps my case by showing her mindset.

9. Noreen does not care what he does in Omaha regarding his work ….

9. Good- so keep Johnny Gosch out of it and we will be fine. However- I think there is a GREAT DEAL MORE to your story than you or your ex-husband have ever told.

10. David does not have any information as to the evidence compiled in the Johnny Gosch Case.

10. Evidence that is secret from the public. Only Noreen knows- and new evidence is pouring fourth every day- or so she tells the media.

11. People should not be fooled by his ranting, he probably needs to have an increase in his
medication again.

11. Again- another attack. I guess Noreen considers herself a wild animal- I mean- what is good for the goose is good for the gander.

Lukej: 12. David likes to taunt and threaten people, also a factor of his mental state.

12. I taunt you Noreen because you can’t help but rise to the occasion every time- which makes me wonder if you don’t have a drinking problem. No one would blame you- but remember this- your son is the victim- not you.

13. David’s latest threat about trying to blast Johnny’s case out of Omaha … Yada yada yada, is such an idiotic statement it is almost humorus. No one cares! It has been 30 years since Johnny was kidnapped. Go for it David… No one cares. Johnny’s case is what it is at this time. He need not worry that anything with Johnny’s case would steal the attention he seeking so desperately.

13. I could care less about recognition, which is why I am hosting a conference bringing survivors and professionals together so that they can compare notes. A conference, by the way- I am NOT speaking at. If I wanted the attention so bad- I would think that it would be the other way around.

14. David complained that John DeCamp invited himself to a lunch a number of years ago… well David John DeCamp paid for your lunch…. Get over it. Good lord ,
People wake up and think for yourself. Noreen has absolutely no communication or dealings with David Shurter, nor does the Johnny Gosch Foundation. We are too busy helping other families such as the two missing girls in Iowa. We work on many cases. David’s rantings are just that RANTINGS and it is nothing new. That ship sailed years ago folks.
I hope you have a good day and this helps you with your question earlier… Anon.

14. You are a liar- and it only took a WEEK TO DECIDE THEY WERE ABDUCTED. Wow- with people such as yourself on the case- it will probably be another thirty years before we know anything about them. You are a media hog- by your own admission- and the things that you are accusing me of- are the very things you are guilty of RIGHT NOW. You, my dear, are batshit crazy as a fox or you are drinking too much.

I’ll be in touch.

I first met Noreen Gosch along with John DeCamp, who had invited himself to lunch with us, about 4 ½ years ago at my favorite Vietnamese eatery I knew of in West Omaha. We spoke of my involvement with Franklin and how closely interconnected with the people running things were with my family, and of course we spoke of her abducted son, Johnny Gosch.

During the course of talk, Noreen told me that Johnny had turned and embraced the “other side” in that he was now behind the camera instead of in front of it. Knowing what happened to the abducted children who became too “hot” to handle and the ultimately untimely death most of them faced, I doubted her story but decided that this was a grieving mother, so who was I to argue.

The preceding months I did what I could to advocate for her, including writing a letter to her ex-husband who she reports in her book and on the net sold their son into slavery. Assuring him that he would come to justice, I was just as sharp with him as I was with ex-police chief Robert Wadman when I confronted him, sending the emails to Noreen as I received them from Wadman. Knowing what I do, it was pretty easy to confront those involved with the truth, and Noreen “befriended” not only me, but my older sister as well.

Calling her late at night- after my sis had taken her meds- Noreen plied my sister for information night after night, even when I asked Noreen to lay off my sister because it was making my sis agitated talking about all about our past right before she was going to sleep. She was especially interested in a group of brother’s who were reportedly involved with her son’s abduction, as well as my boss at the now extinct Stagedoor bar, who was implicated as well.

It was during this time that it began to occur to me that the things that I speak about in my book Rabbit Hole- A Satanic Ritual Abuse Survivor’s Story, are not all that secret in Omaha, and I began to wonder why a thirty year old investigation hadn’t produced the real story- when it was and has been out there all along? It was also when I realized that Paul Bonnaci was the first person to complain about DID in the nation, and it was his testimony and all the chaos surrounding his Grand Jury inquiry that fueled the False Memory Foundation to start dismissing abuse allegations all over the nation. His case was the prototype to the whole mess- and suddenly- our media and government began to claim that parents and therapists were in some conspiracy to bring down their daycares with complaints of child abuse, all of whom claim to be victims of DID. In black and white- it looks ridiculous- but honest to God, this is basically what happened in a nutshell.

When I started to express my questions, suddenly I had a group of people- including Noreen Gosch and members of my family, along with certain leaders in a chat room, claiming that I was a lying crazy pedophile who couldn’t be trusted. Never ONCE arguing against the claims that I was making, they choose to attack me personally with malicious lies in order to discredit anything and everything that I was trying to accomplish (which, at that time, was just simply to put it all together in my mind). Noreen, under the pseudonym Luke, attacked me over and over- continuously telling me that I had no idea where and how the investigation has been pursued over the years, and would become spitefully angry when I pointed out that NOTHING has come out in thirty years, again wondering how this was even possible.

The crescendo of the situation was when my stepmother gave mine and my families social security numbers to my niece, who was in definite contact with the moderator of the website that all this was occurring on, a woman named Rachel Bengly- who in turn, over the chat, gave them to Luke aka Noreen. All of this was an attempt to intimidate me and try to shut me down, but what it did was enrage me to the point of illness. All of this is documented, as I had to contact Homeland Security and report it as identity theft.

Often taunting me online, while I was banned and unable to respond in order to defend myself, Luke aka Noreen Gosch told me that I was “way out of my league” and that “I had no idea what I was playing with”. Hardly the reaction of a grieving mother who was searching for answers about her son, but that was when I realized the brilliance of what Noreen Gosch has done all these years.

If I wanted to keep all of this quiet- and wrapped up in so much chaos that no one could possibly decipher what was really happening, I would give the reins to someone who other’s wouldn’t question- and what better than a grieving mother whom, with her stories of her son coming back at 27 and tons of conspiracy stories she has connected with Omaha, NE- most people assume she is off her rocker, especially after they read her poorly written book “Why Johnny Can’t Come Home” in which she details her husband supposedly taking a “double” of Noreen to John DeCamp’s office. (Notice how all of the stories are verified by the same people involved with this crap).

It was when several people made a positive ID of my brother Stephen, who attended a private conference on Johnny Gosch down in Florida the November before my father died in 2006, and knowing that my father was trying to come clean at this time, that I started to become wary of Noreen, who seemed aggressively disinterested in the “coincidence”. However, it has been the repeated attacks that have brought me to the point where I feel the need to speak out.

I firmly believe that Noreen Gosch is a gatekeeper- providing so many bizarre stories that it is hard to take her seriously, but since she has wrapped her son into the events of Omaha NE- I have the opinion that this is done on purpose- in order to encourage people from really examining closely the events that transpired in Omaha. Events that ARE NOT secret, even today, in Omaha. Those who were around remember, and they are talking- and reading my book- and remembering. It will be through a grass roots effort that people will come forward and talk, and that is what I am doing now- helping people to remember the TRUTH of what happened- instead of all the tall tales that don’t make one ounce of sense- considering that this case is going on thirty years without a public break at all. My hopes that I can change that- and to do so, it is my conviction that I MUST separate an abduction that occurred in West Des Moines from clouding the issues of what was really happening here in the heartland of Omaha, NE. That does not please Noreen Gosch- but at this point- I must admit that I honestly do not care.

Sent to me after I published this article… I agree with it, and so I wanted to add it.
