An investigator into the Franklin Scandal, killed with his sun after his | |
On the day before he died - in a foreshadowing of a boast made decades later by Sunny Sheu - Caradori called his boss, Nebraska State Senator Loran Schmit, to inform him that they now had the subjects of their investigation "by the short hairs."[1]

Franklin Scandal
In November and December 1989, Caradori interviewed Alisha Owen, Troy Boner, and Danny King (no relation to Larry King), all in their early 20s. Owen was serving time in the Nebraska Center for Women at York for writing bad checks, while Boner and Danny King were living in the Omaha area. Caradori recorded their sworn testimony on over 20 hours of videotape, where they described being flown around the country as underage prostitutes and attending grotesquely sadistic pedophiliac orgies. Larry King, they said, had organized it all.[2]
Death
Gary Caradori was killed when his small plane broke up in flight, strewing wreckage over a mile.[1] Two years after the event, the National Transportation Safety Board stated that the wings of Caradori's plane had been snapped off due to stress. His personal effects were returned to his widow, but not the briefcase in which he kept the results of his investigation - that went missing.[3]
Consequences
Caradori's murder probably silenced several potential witnesses, but inspired Troy Boner to recant his original recantation, and give an interview for Conspiracy of Silence, an investigative documentary into the Franklin child prostitution ring which was made but never broadcast.[4]
