Pizzagate and Epstein are Small Windows Into the Protected Pedophile Network

FIRST WATCH THIS VIDEO- All Americans Will Lose Their Home, Income And Power By December 27, 2025

This will not be an easy post for most of us to study; however, if you clicked on this post despite the title, then I ask you to steady yourself and investigate this post in its entirety. It is vitally important to understand the truth of the world we live in, and the monstrous nature of the Cult of Saturn oligarchs and their puppets who rule it. The topics of rape and murder are deeply disturbing— especially when in regards to children. When you add in the subjects of human trafficking, cannibalism, and religious ritual abuse, what was already deeply disturbing, becomes horrifyingly repulsive. Again, this will be a difficult post to explore, but it is tremendously important that we remove the rose-colored glasses that convince us: that most people have good intentions; that most people tell the truth; that psychopaths and sociopaths are loners; that child predators have a particular appearance, race, or socioeconomic class; and overall, that human monsters are rare in today’s world— none of this is true when talking about the rich and powerful. This wishful thinking blinds us and because we choose to stay blind, it further guarantees that millions of children in the future will continue to be raped and murdered, all because it’s uncomfortable for us to face the horrible reality that the World is controlled by a Luciferian Death Cult— The Cult of Saturn.

BREAKING NEWS: All Americans Will Lose Their Home, Income And Power By December 17, 2025

Mentally-healthy people usually steer away from these topics for a few reasons. The first is that a tremendous portion of the human race have been affected in some way by child molestation, rape, and physical abuse— either personally, or via loved ones who have experienced it; therefore, the topic elicits post-traumatic memories that cause strong emotions of pain and anger. Second, even people with no personal experience often have sympathy for the pain and trauma of others. They too will conjure strong feelings when studying these topics. Finally, negative emotions induce anxiety, and our self-protection mechanisms, whether consciously or subconsciously, will work to steer us back to safety and away from the anxiety-inducing information. Control the panic reflex, and instead, please consciously choose to continue reading.

Satanic Panic – The Official Story Says Satanic Ritual Abuse is a Myth Built on 1980s Moral Hysteria

“There was never any evidence of a Satanic Conspiracy.” -Lisa
Bryn Rundle, host of “Uncover Satanic Panic”

If you follow the tremendous trail of actual evidence, Ms. Rundle is clearly incorrect in her assessment.

The Limited Hangouts

Pizzagate, part of the Q-Anon Psy-Op, and the Epstein Scandal are the Limited Hangouts that have been intentionally released by US government actors on the topic of Satanic pedophile networks over the past six years.

The reason that Psy-Ops are so effective is that they usually contain a lot of truth. Pizzagate showed the Obama and Clinton White House Administrations included high-ranking officials who were practicing pedophiles while in power. The purpose of this disclosure was to misdirect the public into believing that Trump was an outsider who was going to dismantle the “Deep-State.” Of course, in the Q-Anon Psy-Op, the Deep State is mostly the Democrat Party.

The biggest tool in this Psy-Op was the Fall of the Cabal documentary, a propaganda piece that was released on Rumble and other less known video platforms. The Fall of the Cabal focused heavily on Democrat Party heavy hitters including George Soros, the Obamas, the Clintons, and the Podesta brothers. Q-Anon believers today think that Trump’s fictional Q-force has been rescuing thousands of children from these networks for months or years, because this carefully crafted documentary told them so. They will tell you that the Obamas and the Clintons have already been tried and put to death, and that Obama and Clinton clones are now who we see when they do interviews or are seen in public. These people are die-hard believers in Trump’s sainthood because the Psy-Op shared a lot of truth about the pedophilic horrors of the Obama and Clinton White Houses. I would tell you that those horrors have been present in every White House Administration in our lifetimes.

The Epstein Psy-Op was released just a couple years later to provide salacious fodder for the Uniparty to point their fingers at one another leading up to the 2024 presidential (s)election. This constant bickering over which party has more pedophiles generated gobs of headlines for the MSM and so-called “alternative” media (much of which is just MSM off-shoots operating via podcasts and social media platforms). If a good portion of the American public stays focused on which part of the US Uniparty rapes more children, and on Israel/Mossad being behind the blackmail rings, there would be far fewer pieces written and discussed regarding the totalitarian police state developing rapidly around the country. Again, Psy-Ops are often filled with truth. Most of the information contained within the Pizzagate and Epstein scandals is true. But, they are using that truth to steer the public away from the clear rise of fascism (Stake-holder Capitalism and Technocracy) the US is implementing rapidly.

The truths contained in Pizzagate and the Epstein Scandal are just the tip of a deep, dark iceberg. The US government is staffed with people who chose to participate in sex Magick rituals in order to advance to higher levels of The Cult of Saturn (Freemasonry, Jewish Mysticism, Illuminati, Satanism/Luciferianism — all different terms for groups within the same Cult). It is those people in the higher levels of the Cult who are then positioned in leadership roles in government, banking, and business. They would literally rape and eat your children and grandchildren if given the chance. None advance into any significant leadership positions in political posts or agencies without first demonstrating they are also criminals. Those demonstrations are recorded.

Therefore, ALL politicians and agency heads can be counted on to stay quiet and steer the public away from the facts regarding any scandals since their asses are also on the line. Each one watches out for their number one. Themselves. They will slowly drip, drip, drip out mostly irrelevant information, hold show hearings, take votes on worthless bills, and constantly promise the public that someone is going to be held to account, but none of the important perpetrators will ever be punished. They might throw one or two lower-level Cult members under the bus to satisfy the American Public, but they will never prosecute any of the perpetrators in the higher echelons of power. Pedophilia and Satanic ritual abuse are rampant within Western halls of power, and it is much more common within the public sphere than most people want to consider.

The Minimizing Official Numbers of Sexual Abuse

According to the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN), every 68 seconds, an American is sexually assaulted. 1 in 6 women have been victims of a completed or attempted rape. 1 in 33 men are said to have experienced a completed or attempted rape. These official numbers are barely scratching the surface.

The organizations and government agencies who tabulate these numbers admit that they are a poor representation of the actual numbers. Official numbers only include abuse cases reported to police where a conviction of the perpetrator occurs, and cases reported to Child Protective Services (CPS) where an investigation by the CPS social worker is completed, and the CPS worker decides the reported abuse happened. Some other reasons cited for a lack of accuracy in the numbers include:

• Families often decide to handle the sexual assault of their children within the family rather than reporting the crime to authorities.
• Parents may decide the abuse isn’t serious enough to report, be afraid of accusing an innocent person, or choose not to report it out of guilt or shame in failing to protect the child.
• Parents and authorities may not believe the child’s account of the abuse.
• Children who are sexually abused are often threatened by their abusers. They are told that if they tell anyone, they or their families will be harmed or killed. Therefore, a tremendous number of abuse victims keep silent.
• Many children feel guilty about the abuse, and may feel partially or fully responsible.
• Boys are much less likely than girls to ever talk about the abuse because of fears of being labeled a homosexual, or fears related to their inability to stop it.
• When children are abused by public figures, parents may not report the abuse because they fear public backlash, or backlash from the authorities themselves.
• Abusers may financially be providing for the family, and parents may not report the abuse because they fear losing the financial support.

Another reason, although only cited by rare investigators like David Icke, is that millions of children are born to breeders (women kept as prisoners for breeding babies) in the Earth’s underworld (Deep Underground Military Bases or DUMBs and cities that exist below ground). These children do not exist on documentation nor within the legal databases above the surface of the Earth, so when they are raped, murdered, and eaten, there is no risk to the Luciferian Cult members who torture them, of being caught. There are breeder programs above ground as well. These children are bred for the use of human sacrifice rituals and/or are trafficked for sex slavery or ritual sexual abuse by the perverse, predatorial oligarch class and the tens of thousands of families worldwide who have long been generational members of what they call, “The Old Religion.”

The System Protects Their Own

One major factor regarding the lack of accuracy in child sexual abuse numbers is related to The System (police, judges, lawyers, FBI, CIA, the media) and how it works to protect accused public figures and those connected to them. Here are some examples:

The Finders

The Finders was a Satanic cult founded in Washington, D.C. in the early 1970s by former United States Airforce Master Sergeant Marion Pettie, who had US Intelligence connections and was nicknamed, “The Game Caller” because he practiced his life and directed the lives of those around him like a series of experiments. This cult included men, women, and children living an alternative lifestyle in a commune, and families experimenting with supposed alternative forms of parenting. The Finders’ Members followed every order from Pettie without hesitation or question.

On February 4, 1987, two adult male Finders Members were reported to police after being seen at a Florida park in a blue van with six children who looked disheveled and possibly abused. Per a confidential police source, The Finders were a Cult from Washington, D.C, who practiced brainwashing techniques and had promised the source “financial reward and sexual gratification,” to join the Cult, and had been invited to “explore Satanism” by one member. One FBI report stated that “the evidence of a Satanic cult/ritual” was discovered when the authorities raided Pettie’s farm in Virginia. In addition, the report included medical notes from 2 doctors who evaluated the children and attested there was strong evidence of sexual abuse, That same FBI report ordered that all reports regarding The Finders were to be classified as the investigation continued.

Long story, short, like most Satanic pedophile rings that service high ranking government and military officials, as well as connected oligarch donors, the authorities who are supposed to protect children from predators, instead protected the predators from accountability.

The Franklin Scandal

The Franklin Scandal was an investigation into a nationwide, pedophile ring used for blackmail by investigative journalist, Nick Bryant, in the 1980s. Lawrence E. King, a rising star in the Republican Party, and Craig Spence, another big name Republican lobbyist and CIA asset, were the Epstein-like purveyors of children for some of the biggest power-brokers inside US politics at the time. The operation’s center was Omaha, Nebraska, and again, the authorities within the US government (ie. District Attorneys, FBI, and local police), protected the political predator class from accountability, rather than protecting the male children being trafficked and raped. These children were either currently in Child Protective Services custody or had been previously, and now were living within foster homes with parents connected to the pedophile purveyors. Like The Founders group, there were credible allegations from the victims that Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA) was happening in this ring.

King had a cousin named Barbara Webb. She and her spouse adopted several children, with at least eight of them living in the home during this time. Bryant obtained DSS (Department of Social Services) reports from the State of Nebraska that explained the evidence the government had showing these children were being physically and sexually abused. Per Bryant, the couples viciousness toward these kids resulted in at least five of them running away, and six of them being interviewed about the abuse by Nebraska authorities. The girl being sexually abused, Eulice (also called, Lisa), even passed a polygraph regarding her allegations of sexual abuse during her interview. The state did nothing.

Julie Walters, a youth worker from Boys Town became involved in the case shortly after Elise, the girl being sexually abused, was moved to a new foster home. Elise became close with her new foster mother and shared her experience of being trafficked while in Webb’s home. When she named multiple Boys Town children and Webb’s famous cousin as also being involved, the foster mother contacted Walters. When Walters learned of the allegations and the pedophile ring operating in her state, she wrote a 46-page letter to the Nebraska Board of Social Services informing them of the allegations.

The first documented FBI intervention Bryant could find was February 19, 1990. Did the FBI try to put a stop to the abuse or shut down the pedophile ring? Nope! They intervened on behalf of the predators. Another DSS social worker, Joanie Gregory, had interviewed some of the children in Webb’s home, and felt that their abnormal behavior suggested the children were being abused. Either because Gregory notified the FBI, or because someone else did, they learned that she was making waves in the operation of this pedophile ring. The FBI spoke to Gregory and warned her that it would be in her interests to “forget this information.”

The Omaha Police Department (OPD) opened a child pornography investigation into King in 1988. They interviewed a woman named Shawnetta Moore, who had been brought to these pedophile gatherings from age ten, and was currently in a psychiatric institution. (Children who are sexually abused, trafficked, and used in Satanic Ritual Abuse commonly are introduced to drugs and alcohol during these incidents, and later, often struggle with substance abuse and mental wellness as adults. Frequently, they enter the Rockefeller psychiatric system within a few years of their exploitation, where they are put on toxic, addictive psychiatric drugs; part of their “therapy” includes meeting with mental health providers who are trained to have no real knowledge that can help their patients to process their abuse and begin to heal.) Moore’s testimony was that King was present in the incidents where she was trafficked and that he participated in “devil-worship.”

OPD internal memos accessed by Bryant accused the OPD police chief, Chief Wadman, of being a “friend” of King. Chief Robert Wadman was later accused of raping a 15-year-old girl at one of these pedophile parties. OPD basically worked to shut down any investigation further into the King matter.

Eventually, the investigation rose to the halls of Congress where the Franklin Committee was formed. King owned the Franklin Credit Union and had been embezzling tens of millions of dollars through it for years. Congress got involved after they found that the credit union hadn’t been audited for 4 years. Credit unions are supposed to be audited annually. After recognizing this case was much darker than just financial crimes, Congress hired an investigator named Gary Caradori, a prominent private investigator. He gathered flight logs, identified 60 child victims, interviewed people from the airport through which King trafficked these child victims, and eventually found that the Franklin ring was just the tip of the iceberg in a nationwide pedophile network that included many power players within the US government.

Soon after, as the State was putting together Grand Juries, a judge involved suddenly declared that King is unfit to stand trial. The US Secret Service then gets involved and whisks King away to a federal psychiatric facility in Missouri. Do you think it’s normal for the US Secret Service to get involved and transport an accused pedophile and embezzler out of state to a federal psychiatric hospital? Yeah, me neither. He was connected to government officials and a friend of George H. W. Bush, but he wasn’t a Senator, a US House Representative, nor did he hold an office in the first Bush Administration. That said, The System protects their own.

The FBI began pressuring King’s victims. They told them to say that Caradori had scripted their testimonies, while also threatening them with perjury charges if they didn’t reverse their testimonies. Meanwhile, Caradori flew to Chicago to meet Rusty Nelson. Nelson was King’s photographer who created the blackmail evidence of the pedophile politicians, agency leaders, bankers, police, etc sexually assaulting King’s child victims. Nelson provided Caradori some blackmail photos of King’s pedophile orgies. Caradori then boarded his Cessna airplane with the evidence and headed back to Nebraska. Before he reached the airport, his plane “broke up,” killing both Caradori and his son. The leather briefcase that would have held the damning photos disappeared from the plane’s wreckage.

A short time later, the Grand Jury released their report and claimed the evidence of a pedophile ring was instead a “carefully crafted hoax.” The Grand Jury then indicted two of the victims for perjury, just as the FBI warned would happen if they refused to recant their testimonies. There is no justice within the US legal system. It exists to protect our criminal leaders from accountability. It exists to keep the prison system and its slave labor workforce full. It exists to give the illusion that the US operates under law and order. And the truth is, it does operate under law and order — the law and order that governs the Cult of Saturn secret societies that the predator class belongs to.

The Presidio Child Development Center Cover-Up

In the 1980s and 1990s, the US Armed Forces, including Army, Air Force, and Navy, had pedophilia and Satanic ritual abuse investigations into at least 15 of their day care centers and 2 primary schools in the US, and several other school campuses connected to bases around the world. At the time, Michael Aquino, an Army specialist in psychological warfare was stationed at Presidio, and lived nearby off base. Below is a picture of Aquino in uniform on the left and Aquino and his wife, Lilith, in their Temple of Set on the right. Aquino founded The Temple of Set, a new, more extreme sect of Satanism, in 1975; he was good friends with Anton LaVey and had attended his church from 1969-1975. The Army had been aware of Aquino’s faith for years.

More than 60 children between the ages of 3-7 years old accused Aquino, other military personnel, and Presidio daycare workers, including Gary Hambright, of sexual abuse and Satanic ritual abuse. Hambright was a Baptist minister who later was said to have died from AIDS; he was the only perpetrator prosecuted. Some of these children and their families had been relocated to other states, but recognized Aquino when the Presidio case broke and his picture was shown on T.V. news reports. Several of the children stated that they had been taken out of the daycare center to homes of Army soldiers for the abuse, including Michael Aquino. Some were able to describe the inside of Aquino’s home; one female victim was even able to describe his bathtub with elephant feet, where she was placed so her abusers could take nude photos. Aquino was fingered by victims in many other child abuse scandals connected to the US Military; he finally was discharged from the US Army in 1990, but claimed he continued military service for another 4 years.

At least 5 of the 60+ child victims tested positive for chlamydia. Multiple children were seen by doctors who documented evidence of missing hymens, anal dilation and tears, rectal lesions, and other physical evidence that sexual abuse had taken place. All had radical behavior changes during and after the periods of abuse. Like similar cases previously, a huge cover-up ensued.

A prosecutor, Susan Gray, a daughter of a district court judge, was assigned to the case though she had never before prosecuted a child abuse case. In fact, the case was said to be the first of its kind handled by the District Attorney’s office in San Francisco. The authorities appeared to throw the case from the very beginning. To start, they decided that victims who were abused off the base in the homes of Army personnel, were out of their jurisdiction. Therefore, they could not prosecute Aquino. Because the San Francisco Police Department primarily investigated Michael Aquino, all of the evidence they found in his home was thrown out.

Gray didn’t consult with child abuse experts regarding how to work with child victims and decided to just wing it in court. Two months prior to the end of the trial, the D.A.’s office did finally have a single consultation phone call with Dr. Roland Summit, a clinical psychiatrist who was a supposed expert and consultant in ritual sexual abuse cases. He stated that he reviewed the case documents and explained that with claims about “weirdness and ritual,” without corroborating physical evidence, these ritual abuse cases end up being thrown out. At the time, Summit stated that 300-500 children had made similar claims that they were victims of Satanic ritual abuse, and though he called it a scandal, said that the children are not usually believed by the courts.

Gray eliminated more than 50 of the child victims from the case, including all but one who had documented medical evidence that backed up their stories, stating that their testimonies included such fantastic claims of Satanic ritual abuse that no judge or jury would have been able to believe them. He advised that the prosecutor use victims with less disturbing testimonies if she wanted to get a conviction. The single child left, a young boy with the last name of Tobin, with medical documentation verifying physical signs of abuse, was stopped from testifying by his therapist, stating concerns of reliving the trauma. This resulted in the court dropping the remaining charges against Hambright. Many of the charges had already been dropped previously because they were “too vague,” according to the judge.

In addition, the Presidio daycare building had a fire prior to the trial, and the daycare’s records went up in smoke. Although the Army stated faulty wiring was to blame, the fire department put in their report that the fire was clearly caused by arson. Three weeks later, another fire occurred in the daycare building, destroying 4 classrooms, including the room where Gary Hambright taught. Other fires took place on the campus as well, burning other structures to the ground where abuse likely took place. Even the ATF was brought in, and they concluded these fires were caused by arson as well. Finally, after the fires, the Presidio decided to demolish the daycare building, and did so before investigators could survey the building for evidence.

Decades of Lt. Colonel Michael Aquino-Connected Sexual Abuse Scandals and Murder

I was surprised to see that Michael Aquino, a Lieutenant Colonel in the US Army, was named by victims in Satanic ritual abuse and pedophilia scandals that spanned two decades and took place in various cities, states, and military bases across the US. However, it appears that Aquino’s participation in these twisted events goes back much farther, to MK Ultra (1953-1964), Project Monarch (1953-1973), the torture and mind control project that started after MK Ultra was supposedly shut down, and Project Phoenix (1968-1972), a Vietnam War era psychological operation where US soldiers murdered somewhere between 20,000-40,000 Vietnam civilians.

Here is the timeline for some of Aquino’s alleged crimes over the decades.

1967 – Michael Aquino began a two-year tour of duty in Vietnam, taking part in the infamous Phoenix Program. The Phoenix Program was an assassination/torture/terror operation that was initiated by the CIA, with the aim of ‘neutralizing’ the civilian infrastructure that supported the Viet Cong insurgency in South Vietnam. It was a terrifying ‘final solution’ that blatantly violated the Geneva Conventions. Targets for assassination included VC tax collectors, supply officers, political cadre, local military officials, and suspected sympathizers. However, ‘faulty intelligence’ more often than not led to the murder of innocent civilians, even young children. Sometimes orders were even given to kill US military personnel who were considered security risks. In 1971, William Colby, head of CIA in Vietnam at the time, later testified that the number killed was 20,857, while South Vietnamese government figures claimed it was 40,994 dead. This murderous psyop program had the effect of creating legions of cold-blooded psychopathic killers who would return home to the USA as completely different people than when they left. Many of them would become involved in satanism during or after their involvement in the Phoenix Program. And Michael Aquino was there to lead them into it. Soon after these killers started coming home, there began a steady rise in horrific serial murders with satanic undertones that centered around the southern California area (where Michael Aquino has always lived).

1980 – According to sworn testimony given before a US Senate in later years, MKULTRA mind-control victim Cathy O’Brien claimed that she was programmed at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, in 1980 by Lt. Col. Michael Aquino of the US Army. She stated that Aquino used barbaric trauma techniques on both her daughter Kelly and herself that involved NASA technology. Cathy O’Brien claimed that she was a ‘presidential model’ Monarch sex slave, meaning that she was specially programmed to cater to the sexual perversions of the highest-ranking politicians in the USA. She stated that during her time as a sex slave (which started as a child), she serviced a number of well-known politicians, including both Bill and Hilary Clinton, Ronald Reagan, Pierre Trudeau, Brian Mulroney, George H.W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Governors Lamar Alexander and Richard Thornburgh, Bill Bennett, Senator Patrick Leahy, Senator Robert Byrd (who she says was her handler) and Arlen Spector. O’Brien eventually gave testimony before the US Senate regarding the events she was forced to go through, and although she named her perpetrators, not one of them dared to challenge her or accuse her of slander.

1982 (September 5) – Twelve-year-old Johnny Gosch was abducted from a shopping mall parking lot in West Des Moines, Iowa, while doing his early-morning paper route, never to be seen again. Years later, during an interview with private investigator Ted Gunderson, child abductee and sex slave victim Paul Bonacci revealed that, as a child, he was directly involved in Gosch’s abduction, having acted as a lure to draw Gosch into the hands of his pedophile abductors. According to Bonacci, the abduction was ordered by Lt. Col. Michael Aquino, who later picked Gosch up at a farmhouse he was being held at and delivered him to a buyer in Colorado. For years, both boys were used for the pedophiliac pleasures of high-ranking government officials.

1985 – Allegations of ritual abuse at the Jubilation Day Care Center at Fort Bragg erupted when several children reported being sexually abused by a number of people at the day care center and several other locations, including at least two churches. Lt. Col. Michael Aquino was identified as having been present at one of those churches.

1986 (November) – Allegations emerged regarding sexual abuse being perpetrated at the US Army’s Presidio Child Development Center in San Francisco. Within a year, at least 60 victims were identified, all between the ages of three and seven. Victims told of being taken to private homes to be abused, and at least three houses were positively identified, one of them being Aquino’s. They also described being urinated and defecated upon, and being forced to ingest urine and feces. Irrefutable medical evidence documented the fact that these children were sexually abused, including five who had contracted chlamydia, and many others who showed clear signs of anal and genital trauma consistent with violent penetration. Even before the abuse was exposed, the children were exhibiting radical changes in behavior, including temper outbursts, sudden mood shifts, and poor impulse control. Both Lt. Col Michael Aquino and his satanist wife Lilith were positively identified by victims as two of the perpetrators. At least one victim was able to positively identify Aquino’s home and describe with uncanny accuracy the distinctively satanic interior of the house. Only one person was ever charged for the abuse of one child, and these charges were dismissed three months later.

1987 (August 14) – As part of the Presidio investigation, a search warrant was served on the residence of Lt. Col. Michael Aquino and his wife Lilith, and numerous videotapes, photographs, photo albums, photographic negatives, cassette tapes, and address books were confiscated. Also observed during the search was what appeared to be a soundproof room that may have been used as a torture chamber.

1987 (November) – The US Army received allegations of child abuse at fifteen of its day care centers and several elementary schools. There were also at least two other cases at Air Force day care centers, and another one at a center run by the US Navy. In addition to these, a special team of experts were sent to Panama to help determine if as many as ten children at a Department of Defense elementary school were molested and possibly infected with AIDS. Another case also emerged in a US-run facility in West Germany. These cases occurred at some of the most esteemed military bases in the country, including Fort Dix, Fort Leavenworth, Fort Jackson, and West Point. In the West Point case alone, by the end of the year, fifty children were interviewed by investigators. There were reports of satanic acts, animal sacrifices, and cult-like behavior among the abusers. An investigation led by former US Attorney Rudolph Giuliani produced no federal grand jury indictments. His investigation concluded that only one or two children were abused, in spite of all the evidence to the contrary.

1988 (November 4) – The FBI raided the Franklin Credit Union in Omaha, Nebraska, run by a man named Lawrence King. In the process, they uncovered evidence relating to drug running, pedophilia, pornography, and satanic activity involving prominent individuals in the local community and beyond. Eighty children eventually came forward and identified many of those involved, including the chief of police (who impregnated one of the victims), a local newspaper publisher, a former vice squad officer, a judge, and others. The children described satanic ceremonies involving human and animal sacrifice. Evidence that came out showed that children were abducted from shopping mall parking lots and auctioned off in Las Vegas and Toronto. Airplanes owned by the DEA were often used to transport the children. Other children were removed from orphanages and foster homes and taken to Washington, DC to take part in sex orgies with dignitaries, congressmen, and other high-ranking public officials. A number of the child victims testified that George Bush Sr. was one of the people who was often seen at these parties. Photographs were being surreptitiously taken at these orgies by the child traffickers for blackmail purposes. There was also evidence of ties to mind-control programs being conducted at Offutt Air Force Base near Omaha, Nebraska, where the head of the Strategic Air Command (SAC) is located. Minot is an area that has satanic cults operating in it that have been directly tied to the Son of Sam and Manson murders, among others.

There was no follow-up investigation when these findings were made. The US national media didn’t report on the story. Local media only focused on discrediting the witnesses. The FBI and other enforcement officers harassed and discredited victims in the aftermath, causing all but two of them – Paul Bonacci and Alisha Owen – to recant their testimonies. The child victims, rather than the perpetrators, were thrown in prison. Alisha Owen spent more time in solitary confinement than any other woman in the history of the Nebraska penal system. She received a sentence of 9 to 25 years for allegedly committing perjury, which is ten years longer than the sentence that was given to Lawrence King for looting his Franklin Credit Union of $40 million. This heavy sentence imposed on Owen was meant to serve as a warning message to all other victims who might think of talking.

The key investigator in the case, Gary Caradori, was killed when his private plane mysteriously exploded in mid-air while en route to delivering evidence to Senator Loran Schmit. His briefcase went missing from the wreckage. This was the first of many deaths of people attempting to uncover this politically connected satanic cult/sex slave/drug trafficking ring. The Discovery Channel made a documentary about this case, entitled ‘Conspiracy of Silence’, but at the last moment, a group of unidentified US Congressmen paid them $500,000 to not air it, and all copies were destroyed (one copy survived). Republican senator John DeCamp, who was on the investigative committee, wrote a book exposing the case, titled, The Franklin Cover-Up.

In 1999 (see below), Paul Bonacci, who had been kept as a child sex slave by Lawrence King, positively identified Lt. Col. Michael Aquino as an associate of King, who he said was known to the children only as ‘the Colonel’. Rusty Nelson, King’s personal photographer, also identified Aquino as the man that he once saw King give a briefcase full of money and bearer bonds to, and who King had told him was involved in the Contra gun and cocaine trafficking operation being run by George Bush Sr. and Lt. Col. Oliver North.

1989 (May) – Lt. Col. Michael Aquino was again questioned in connection with child abuse investigations. This time, at least five children in three cities were making the accusations. The children had seen Aquino in newspaper and television coverage of the Presidio case and immediately recognized him as one of their abusers. The children were from Ukiah, Santa Rosa, and Fort Bragg.

1990 (August 31) – Lt. Col. Michael Aquino was processed out of the Army after being investigated for satanic ritual child abuse in the Presidio case. Although never formally charged, according to court documents, Aquino was ‘titled’ in a Report of Investigation by the Army’s Criminal Investigative Division (CID) for “indecent acts with a child, sodomy, conspiracy, kidnapping, and false swearing”. The child abuse charges remained against Aquino because, according to the CID, the evidence of alibi offered by Aquino “was not persuasive.” Aquino has since denied that he was ever processed out of the Army and even claims that he was selected as one of their first Space Intelligence Officers during this same year, and was stationed at Cheyenne Mountain for four years of active duty before retiring.

Aquino wasn’t just held in high esteem by the US Military, he was also a bit of a celebrity with NATO leaders. Despite the fact that Aquino’s Satanic activities involved overt support for neo-Nazi movements in the United States and Europe, on October 10, 1983, while traveling in West Germany on “official NATO business,” and on NATO’s dime, Aquino staged a Satanic ritual at the Wewelsburg Castle in Bavaria. Wewelsburg Castle was built by Heinrich Himmler during the Third Reich, and the Hall of the Dead, was a room within, created specifically for occult rituals.

Aquino wrote a lengthy account of the ritual, in which he invoked Nazi SS chief Heinrich Himmler:

“As the Wewelsburg was conceived by Heinrich Himmler to be the ‘Mittelpunkt der Welt’ (’Middle of the World’), and as the focus of the Hall of the Dead was to be the Gate of that Center, to summon the Powers of Darkness at their most powerful locus.”
