David breaks down the Washington D.C. political blackmail angle involving Craig Spence and Lawrence E. King, discusses statistics on pedophilia, and explains the CIA-style logic of compromising powerful people with recorded material.
- 45:58Tim compares a blackmail operation to a party where drugs come out after the squares leave.
- 46:22Craig Spence's house contained two-way mirrors and recording devices—the infrastructure for blackmail.
- 46:34Lawrence E. King, a rising Republican star who sang the national anthem at the convention, allegedly flew around the country with children as part of the ring.
- 47:24Why would well-known congressmen have affairs while public, and why would the CIA need blackmail if their agenda is supposedly good for America?
- 48:08Blackmail and control isn't unique to the CIA—businesses and corporations use the same tactics.
- 48:35America's Most Wanted and John Walsh investigated Johnny Gosch's disappearance and uncovered multiple victims of the ring after the first episode aired.
- 49:12A caller to America's Most Wanted revealed he had the same brand on his leg as Johnny Gosch, proving the ring existed.
- 49:52Paul Bonacci showed producers an actual house in Colorado where children were kept, and the producers verified it existed.
- 50:23Fox Television couldn't locate the America's Most Wanted episode about the case from five thousand-plus episodes in their library.
- 51:10People's reluctance to discuss the story is often more revealing than their willingness to talk about it, and Brian has reported being tailed and harassed.
