See moreIn 1982, twelve-year-old Des Moines newspaper boy Johnny Gosch disappeared, and his mother and father, Noreen and Leonard Gosch, disputed with the West Des Moines Police Department about whether it was an "abduction" or a runaway, in which case the department required seventy-two hours to act. Noreen Gosch pushed through a bill adopted in several Midwestern states, requiring the police to act immediately. The Johnny Gosch Foundation was formed, and a national media campaign ensued. Two years later, a second Des Moines newspaper boy, Eugene Martin, disappeared, but it was immediately treated as an abduction. The Des Moines Police Department turned up very little evidence, and no one was ever arrested.
But up in Milwaukee, Craig Green and Jimmy Gibson were pulled into a child trafficking and drug distribution ring, in which all these boys were brought together at kingpin Charlie Kerr's Sioux City Farm. Scott Allen was actually abducted by Michael J. Devlin in a suburb of St. Louis, and he's now serving a life sentence in a Missouri state prison for kidnapping and child molestation. He was brought into the ring, as well as Brett McCumber, whose drug-addicted mother sold him to Emilio Hernandez, Charlie's Caldwell, Idaho partner when he was six years old.
Wisconsin Senator Herb Kohl, the founder of Kohl's Department Stores and part of the Senate Intelligence Committee, was a client of both Charlie Kerr and Emilio Hernandez, repeatedly sexually molested and drugged the boys, and was instrumental in their being inculcated into remote viewing, deception, and compromise trainingβtools of MKUltraβat Mountain Home Air Force Base and other locales. They were later brought into Secretary of State James Baker's secretive OPUS Baker program as PSYOPs operatives. After many years of being sexually and drug-abused, physically and emotionally scarred, and used in human cloning studies by the military without any knowledge or consent, they want to tell their story in their own words and get some accountability.
The harrowing tale unfolds in The Edge Of Sanity, a riveting narrative of survival and the quest for justice.
