What happened to Des Moines teen Johnny Gosch, who disappeared while delivering papers the morning of September 5th, 1982 and whose probable kidnapping that day triggered the Stranger Danger awareness movement.  Even more interestingly, his mother, Noreen Gosch, alleges that Johnny has been in contact with her since, including a personal visit and that she has also received pictures that allegedly show Johnny tied up as a teen kidnap victim.

On today's show, Juras and Glenn review the facts as known, Noreen's claims, and make some guesses as to her credibility, as well as what actually happened to Johnny.  The conversation goes deep into the thought that there might be some kind of organized human trafficking ring, as well as the various statistics that largely dispute that.  Hang on, it should be an interesting ride!
