In November 2016, Steve Pieczenik tweeted about about a book by Noreen N. Gosch, in relation to the Franklin child prostitution ring "this goes way back, sorry 2 break it 2 you, its real."[1]

Official narrative

Wikipedia's corresponding page is called the "Franklin child prostitution ring allegations", representing the official narrative that there is still controversy about their truth.

Testimony

Several victims testified to repeated sexual abuse. "When the Franklin case first came to light in 1988-90, numerous child victim-witnesses, including Paul Bonacci and Alisha Owen, testified to investigators for the Nebraska Senate’s Franklin committee, that a man named 'Rusty Nelson' was the private photographer of King, and that Nelson, at King’s direction, had taken thousands of pictures of incidents of sexual abuse. Chief Wadman, named by Owen as her primary abuser, “investigated” charges of pornography which had been lodged against Nelson, but Wadman found that Nelson was “involved in a legitimate business,” though Wadman had to acknowledge that Nelson was living in an apartment rented for him by King. Shortly thereafter, Nelson disappeared from Nebraska, until he showed up as a surprise witness in court on Feb. 5, 1999. Some years later after his disappearance, Nelson had been arrested by police in Portland, Oregon, on pornography charges."[2]

On June 21, 1991, 21-year-old Alisha Jahn Owen was pronounced guilty by a jury in Douglas County, Nebraska, on eight counts of felony perjury. On August 8, 1991, she was sentenced to serve nine to twenty-seven years in prison.[3] This, despite a law giving immunity to those who name their abusers in sex abuse cases.

Paul Bonacci

Paul Bonacci named his abusers in front of the Franklin Jury. He was initially indicted on charges of perjury but in 1999 he won a $1 million law-suit against Larry King with the help of his lawyer John DeCamp.[4]

Troy Boner testified to investigator Gary Caradori‎ of repeated rape and sexual abuse.[5] Boner later recanted this testimony after his brother, Shawn Boner, was fatally shot in suspicious circumstances. Alisha Owen was convicted of perjury partly on his evidence in court. Boner later reported in a re-recantation in the film Conspiracy of Silence that he had been threatened by the FBI. He died of a suspected drug overdose in 2003.[6][7]
