The "Franklin scandal" broke in 1989 when children were apparently flown around the US to be abused by high-ranking officials. In late 1988, after the failure of the Franklin Community Federal Credit Union in Omaha, Nebraska, rumors started to spread that money from the union had been used to pay for child prostitution. Lurid claims about a child sex trafficking ring took hold.Businessmen, media personalities, lawmen and educators were among those implicated, as well as Lawrence E. King Jr., who headed the credit union and was an affiliate of the National Black Republican council, an affiliate of the Republican Party, the Washington Post reported at the time. (
https://www.washingtonpost.com/archiv...)Some attempt to lump the Franklin scandal into the "Satanic Panic" and then act as if that is enough to discount the accusations. That is not enough. Not by a country mile. Importantly, this documentary (and many books about this) was not only capable of confirming many of the original accusations to be accurate, but was also able to turn up even more sources that no one had discovered before. The most unfortunate aspect is that no one was sufficiently punished for their wrongdoing. Some of them are actually no longer among the living, so justice in this world is impossible. The only way to do that is to get out the truth.This documentary is a chilling exposé of corporate corruption and government cover-ups. At the time, getting this story out in any unfiltered way was virtually impossible. Since that time, however, we have become aware of case after case after case with similar elements.
