You know, I've interviewed Nick Bryant over the years, and he first wrote a book called The Franklin Scandal.

And the Franklin scandal was a child sex trafficking operation that was run out of primarily Omaha, Nebraska and Washington, D.C. in the late 70s all through much of the 80s.
P
12:15Pete ShinnGUEST
And it was documented and investigated by my partner and the director of Epstein Justice, Nick Bryant, in a book called The Franklin Scandal, which I recommend anybody read.
P
12:27Pete ShinnGUEST
That's in fact how I met Nick Bryant, is I reached out to him after reading that book, which my child, my son, who lives in Omaha, brought to me and said, Dad, are you aware of this? Because my son was aware of victims in the Franklin Scandal.
P
12:40Pete ShinnGUEST
And the fact of the matter is that when we talk about Franklin, that situation was not successfully resolved.
P
12:47Pete ShinnGUEST
Every victim in that case either recanted their testimony under severe pressure from the FBI, died under mysterious circumstances, and the one victim in that case who refused to recant their testimony was sent to prison, was sentenced to prison for over nine years for quote-unquote perjury.

So the only people that got punished in the Franklin scandal were the victims.

So law enforcement and the pros- uh, the prosecutor's stance, uh, FBI, OPD, special prosecutor, um, for lack of a better way to describe this, they portray the Franklin scandal simply as a financial crime and virtually nothing more, which to me is ludicrous.

Um, the financial scope only.
