The Franklin Cover-up: Child Abuse, Satanism, and Murder in Nebraska Mass Market Paperback – August 16, 2011
| Price | New from | Used from |
Purchase options and add-ons
In the face of opposition from local and state law enforcement, from the FBI, and from the powerful Omaha World-Herald newspaper, a special Franklin committee of the Nebraska Legislature launched its own probe. What looked like a financial swindle, soon exploded into a hideous tale of drugs, Iran-Contra money-laundering, a nationwide child abuse ring, and ritual murder.
Nineteen months later, the legislative committee's chief investigator died - suddenly, and violently, like more than a dozen other people linked to the Franklin case.
Author John DeCamp knows the Franklin scandal from the inside. In 1990, his "DeCamp memo" first publicly named the alleged high-ranking abusers. Today, he is attorney for two of the abuse victims.
Using documentation never before made public, DeCamp lays bare not only the crimes, but the cover-up - a textbook case of how dangerous the corruption of institutions of government, and the press, can be. In its sweep and in what it portends for the nation, the Franklin cover-up followed the ugly precedent of the Warren Commission.

In the 1980's there was a man named Lawrence E. King, who by the way is walking around free, who was/is a satanist while at the same time being one of the worst homosexual pedophile pimps in the USA and was also a networking Republican who was friends at the highest levels with Republicans nationally and the elite of Omaha, NE.
Elite Republican (and Barney Frank) knew King would provide them young boys to have sex with. King would often recruit this boy victims out of the nationally famous Boystown Orphanage in Omaha. And then fly them around the country to high end pedophiles.
The key point is George Herbert Walker Bush was one of King's clients and because of that this pedophile ring was covered up with incredible savagery by the FBI, the Justice Dept (with a very high level homosexual pedophile there) as well as the Nebraska CPS, state police and Omaha police dept, which, by the way, had a satanist pedophile named Robert Wadman (who child raped age 14-15 year old Alicia Owen).
A lot of people are scared of the truth. And the truth about the Franklin Cover Up is pretty scary just like those folks at Penn State did not want to believe Jerry Sandusky was molesting all those kids and Joe Paterno and Penn State were covering it up.
John De Camp deserves a Pulitzer Prize for his work on Franklin. The first book (The Franklin Cover Up) on this topic was by John De Camp, a Republican state senator in Nebraska who was in charge of investigating this.
The official attempts to cover this up were quite savage because Lawrence E. King, homosexual pedophile pimp, had been providing boys to the some of the Republican political elite all over the USA. Lawrence E. King was quite GOP connected, he hung out with the power folks, and he was selling them young boys to have sex with.
Eulice Washington in 1986 told Nebraska CPS that she saw George Herbert Walker Bush at one of Lawrence E. King¡¯s pedophile parties in 1984 in Chicago as the Republicans were cruising to a landslide win. Eulice Washington is age 42 today and she still says she saw Lawrence E. King¡¯s friend GHW Bush at that 1984 Chicago pedophile party. King used to have photos of Bush around his house.
Bush¡¯s alleged participation was the reason for the FBI, Justice Dept and Secret Service cover up and protection of this pedophile ring.
In 2010-2011 one fo my JFK researcher friends told me to call Ray Hill, a prominent gay activist in Houston. Ray Hill told me that when GHW Bush was a congressman in Houston, in the late 1960¡äs, that he used to take a Hispanic kid to the old Carousel Motel which was across from the Gulfgate Mall (first indoor mall in America) in East End Houston.
I asked Ray Hill, who knew John Coil the owner of the Carousel Motel, how OLD was this boy who Congressman GHW Bush was with? Was he age 17-18? or more like age 15-16?
Ray Hill¡¯s response: ¡°He was young enough to be called a kid!¡± Coil and his business partner had talked often to Ray Hill about then Congressman GHW Bush taking an Hispanic boy to the Carousel Motel. Basically, the congressman was playing with boys sexually.
So based on what Ray Hill reports and based on what several of the kids in the Franklin Cover Up said about GHW Bush¡¯s participation, I conclude that George Herbert Walker Bush has been a homosexual child molester, a la Jerry Sandusky, for a very long time.
In June 29, 1989, the Washington Times ran a column with a huge headline that screamed ¡°Homosexual prostitution inquiry ensnares VIPS with Reagan, Bush¡± ¡± ¡®Call boys¡¯ took midnight tour of White House.
And remember this was a FRONT PAGE story in the Washington Times by Paul Rodriguez and George Archibald.
The reality of it was that Craig Spence, who was the uber connected GOP lobbyist of his day ¨C a Jack Abramoff of the 1980¡äs ¨C was taking these teenage boy prostitutes on midnight tours of the White House. Of course, Craig Spence and Lawrence E. King were providing these boy prostitutes to other GOP high rollers.
And George Herbert Walker Bush was right at the epicenter of all of this. And when Bush became president, Richard Thornburgh, his Attorney General, played a key role in covering up the Franklin pedophile ring.
I think US intelligence murdered investigator Gary Caradori who was coming very close to breaking this thing wide open. They blew up his plane in July, 1990, after he had gone to Chicago to get some photos the child pornographers had made of the kids.
Bottom line: there was a lot more to this tragic story than just George Herbert Walker Bush, but his participation became the engine and the reason for the absolutely savage cover up of this scandal by the FBI, Justice Dept. and the Omaha Police.
CIA director William Colby (the one who exposed the family jewels to Congress in the 1975-1976). Colby was John DeCamp's friend. The book is true. One person sued the author for libel and lost in court. His story is supported by documentation.
If people shine the light on corruption it can go away. If people write, speak and go public in a truth telling manner, supported by facts, truth is powerful. FDR's quote was accurate: "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself."
President Franklin Roosevelt said that in 1933 when the first concentration camp opened in Germany outside of Dachau. Within two years Germans had a little ditty that tells it all about fear and not speaking up: "Dear God, make me dumb so that I may not Dachau come."
I worked as a child protective services investigator for the government in the time period DeCamp's book came out. I wish I had known about it then. The police and our state government actively talked about and gave trainings on ritual abuse of children.
Allegations of using and violating children came out against Army intelligence officer, Lt. Col. Michael Aquino related to a day care on an Army post, investigated in 1987. Aquino heads up the Temple of Set in California. In my opinion and others the investigation was stopped by the powers that be. The Army promoted him to General and he was integrally involved with Psy-Ops (See the Men Who Stare at Goats, the comedic version of torture in the military). I don't know how author Jon Ronson missed Aquino, but he did.
Then it all went underground. We got the "word", ritual abuse, "done", no talking about it. Those that didn't have the power of a John DeCamp were set up and then sometimes attacked through the courts. It happened locally behind the scenes. It happened through local powerful people. Powerful local people connect to powerful state people who connect to powerful national people who connect to the CIA and the military. Like a daisy chain made of thorns and weeds.
A supervisor in my agency said on a regular basis, "You know, sexual abuse doesn't kill children." He was tied into the power structure of the state.
The seeds for the use of children is embedded in a number of institutional government settings including schools. I recently reviewed child abuse reporting training materials on a school district. The school district dropped the term "sexual MISconduct". They now call it "sexual conduct". The materials say "While equally egregious, sexual conduct may not always be child abuse..." The materials further tell school district staff if a staff person has any suspicious to contact their "H.R. legal counsel" and then in RED letters on the bottom of that page says "Under no circumstances are you to contact the parent or legal guardian".
DeCamp, the author has done the country a great service in not being afraid to tell the truth. His actions, documentation and going public protected him.
I recommend, read his book and don't be afraid.
Our government, our military in seeing the concentration camps directly went themselves into a combination of fear and fascination as one might take in a massive train wreck. In switching fear to the Russians, our government brought over the most heinous Nazi war criminals.
Shortly after the big media Nuremberg trial event, most of those high ranking leaders melted back into German life, came to the US and South America with the assistance of our government, our government helped Mengele, the horrible doctor of the Auschwitz concentration camp who particularly liked to torture, experiment on children and kill them. But first he sexually caressed them. There is film footage of him doing that.
Mengele was part of the MKULTRA program to show the CIA and military through torturing and splitting children's mind what the Germans had been doing. Read Carol Rutz's book "A Nation Betrayed". Her documentation is as great as DeCamp's, another book I missed as I was struggling to figure out why the government agency I worked in wasn't protecting children. Mengele pops up in a number of places in the US as well as Canada.
Be not afraid and trust your intuition. "The Franklin Coverup" would make an excellent suspense film. Now why hasn't anyone in Hollywood made this film?
Read both books without fear. Read them as courageous tales of two people making a difference. Then speak up. Say what you see. Make documents public. Write you're own book. There is a window of great opportunity now and it is Amazon.com. Write your book and put it on Amazon. Like DeCamp and Rutz go forth and truth tell.
Just my humble review and opinion.
I wish I could have known Senator DeCamp. What a model of what a human being should represent.
And the agencies who claim to work for the people are devils in disguise. God doesn’t take lightly to children being abused and tortured.
Yet here it stares us in the face and begs for justice.
Apparently not in this lifetime for the next….

O que gostei no livro foi a narrativa do autor de seu trabalho investigativo em relação aos fatos referentes à pedofilia, abuso de crianças, assassinato e ocultação de cadáveres, em rituais satânicos, praticados por algumas comunidades e membros da elite dos estados do meio oeste estadunidense, interligado com a corrupção do condado de Franklin, Nebraska, USA
To all the ppl that weren't believed in this book I do hope u all are getting help.
