DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) -- The mother of a boy abducted 24 years ago said she's bewildered by two photographs left at her front door, apparently showing her son and two other children bound and gagged.

Oh my god..
I'm not sure I can read the rest of the story. This sounds really sick already.
God have mercy on her and them but not on the perp.
ditto.
there are some theories that he was connected to government officials who went bad and were connected to child sex slavery.
And yes, it is wierd.
Are you kidding about Jeff Gannon? Isn't he the former freeper and WH reporter or am I thinking about someone else?
Bizarre story bump.
It's possible he's alive....oh my.
I just don't know where the strength comes from to go from day to day in this type of situation -
He has to know somewhere in his heart if he's still alive - it doesn't matter what was done to him, or what he got involved with - he has a place in his mom's heart and embrace -
Looks like grist for another episode of "Most Evil" on The Discovery Channel,
even if there wasn't a murder involved.
WARNING: Children (and adults with a sensitive nature) should NOT watch "Most Evil"
Wow. I remember this boy's name and his disappearance.
I had no idea that he'd contacted his mom 15 yrs later.
Maybe he's the one who left the picture?
Yeah, that's the one. He was a former WH reporter and then came out as bi-sexual. If I remember right, Jeff Gannon is not his real name. There's some stuff out there on the web about it. I have not a clue as to how reliable it is.
wasn't the head of the DHS into pedophilia? that should raise some eye brows.
I don't think this just happened (the mother finding the photos I mean). I think it is the promotion for the mother's book. It would be difficult to read, but probably will be a best seller.
Severely whacked!
Oh my gosh!
Ping to some "possible" information about former WH reporter and freeper Jeff Gannon.
About a year after Johnny Gosch was abducted, another DM paper boy, by the last name of Martin, also disappeared. He has never been heard from, either. However it is always Gosch that gets the notoriety.
I hope I didn't open a can of worms with that post--I seriously know nothing about Jeff Gannon being a freeper and in no way wanted to stir up controversy.
Gannon was born in 57 - puts him at 49ish - the missing person would be about 36 or so if he was 12 when he went missing and it's been 24 years
More "strangeness" about the matter here.

I feel for the lady but those photos have to be verified.
Wikipedia has links to at least one of these photos, under heading "Johnny Gosch."
This says Gannon had another name:
James Dale Guckert (1957) worked under the pseudonym Jeff Gannon as a White House reporter between 2003 and 2005, representing Talon News.
So you're saying you've seen stuff on the web that Jeff Gannon might be this kid who was kidnapped? Wouldn't that be something.

Don't know how reliable this site is but it tells the story....sort of.
"Whoever had these photos had them for 24 years. I don't understand why they would do this now. It must be some kind of message."
I think it did just happen or she wouldn't have said that they've had the photos for 24 years. He was kidnapped in 1982.
Put on your tinfoil hats ...
Full rundown of all the conspiracy theories here:

Hard to know what to believe, but there is some weird stuff going on in this country.
No problem -- if there's stuff on the web I'm hoping some freepers will track it down and check it out.
Only the wacko, sick, demented, perverted liberal left was pushing that theory
Well, yes I have--I googled Johnny Grosh's name because I had never heard of this abduction and in several of the links there was an indication that some people think they are the same. The mom said in one article that on some days she thinks Jeff Gannon IS her son, and some days she doesnt'. So it sounds like she's pretty confused.
That's quite a story.
Oh my goodness. I had no idea. She should contact Jeff Gannon and ask where he grew up and see if she can't set her mind at ease.
mmmm second paragraphy says "Years later, on February 5, 1999, in a civil action in a U.S. District Court in Lincoln, Nebraska, Paul Bonacci painstakingly recounted the sordid, heart breaking details of Johnny Gosch's abduction and forced participation in an elite government sponsored pedophile sex slave ring, that dehumanized and controlled its young, hapless victims using techniques such as drugs, murder, satanic rituals, sexual abuse, and torture, resulting in MPD (multiple-personality disorder). The children were systemically programmed and "zombified" as part of the CIA's ongoing, under-the-radar MK-ULTRA (MK = mind control) mind control program."
I'm going to take a pass on the rest of the article -
Indeed it is. Anyone watch CSI last night?
Its only a rumor Peach...
Looks like a "blame the Republicans" article.
There's a 20 year age difference between the men - how can their be confusion on is he or isn't he? You can shave some years off - but to say you're 20 years older than you are??? Doesn't seem likely
i grew up about two blocks from where he was kidnapped.
maybe even less than two blocks. My family didnt move to the neighborhood until 1992, well after the kidnappings from florida.
Oh, I've read some of the links now and realize that. But I had no idea his name had come up in relationship to this case previously and find it interesting.
Couldn't the mother just contact Gannon and ask where he lived growing up and ask about his parents?
--Hard to know what to believe, but there is some weird stuff going on in this country
I think that website is the evil.
See post #29. But you are correct. That must have been one fast book production.
I personally believe that Oklahoma City and TWA 800 were covered up, so who else knows what is going on?
Why? Based on a rumor posted on a few message boards...
