1
00:00:01.800 --> 00:00:05.200
<v Speaker 1>The following presentation is it al Marvis Studio's production.

2
00:00:07.519 --> 00:00:12.800
<v Speaker 2>Tonight's program on Alternative Views is one which you may

3
00:00:13.119 --> 00:00:17.199
<v Speaker 2>quite frankly not want to watch. It's going to be

4
00:00:17.320 --> 00:00:26.800
<v Speaker 2>very disturbing. The subject is very controversial, even disgusting. The

5
00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:30.280
<v Speaker 2>language in some of them may be offensive to some people.

6
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:36.079
<v Speaker 2>But we're going to find out tonight about the senior

7
00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:39.960
<v Speaker 2>side of the American power structure and maybe something about

8
00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:45.399
<v Speaker 2>male homo sapien. Because the subject of tonight's program is

9
00:00:45.479 --> 00:00:51.159
<v Speaker 2>boys for sale, boy prostitution. Where these kids come from,

10
00:00:51.280 --> 00:00:56.079
<v Speaker 2>how they use, how they're abused, tortured, killed, used sexually,

11
00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:01.359
<v Speaker 2>and who is it that's doing it. We find some

12
00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:07.200
<v Speaker 2>very shocking things are happening. We have with us Tom Philpott,

13
00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:10.239
<v Speaker 2>the History Department of the University of Texas is a

14
00:01:10.239 --> 00:01:14.840
<v Speaker 2>special guest. In an addition, Mark McKinnon, former editor of

15
00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:19.760
<v Speaker 2>the Late of Texan at the university. Tom has been

16
00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:22.000
<v Speaker 2>doing a lot of research on the subject, and Mark

17
00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:26.359
<v Speaker 2>was involved with some articles, very controversial articles a couple

18
00:01:26.359 --> 00:01:29.799
<v Speaker 2>of years ago. But before we have our program on

19
00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:34.280
<v Speaker 2>boy prostitution, here are some news stories. Well, I guess

20
00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:38.680
<v Speaker 2>most of you saw the movie the day after William F.

21
00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:46.040
<v Speaker 2>Buckley in his Magnificent mind calls it sheer humbugery and

22
00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:49.959
<v Speaker 2>it was a result of junk thought. And then he

23
00:01:50.439 --> 00:01:53.120
<v Speaker 2>includes with this, Buckley, I don't know, he's just getting

24
00:01:53.239 --> 00:01:59.280
<v Speaker 2>senile or what. I remember a few months ago he

25
00:01:59.519 --> 00:02:03.359
<v Speaker 2>wrote an oracle saying that if Nicaragua continues to do

26
00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:05.439
<v Speaker 2>what they do, We're going to declare war on them

27
00:02:05.840 --> 00:02:08.919
<v Speaker 2>and their backers Cuba and the Soviet Union go to

28
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:12.000
<v Speaker 2>World War three over Nicaragua. Well, anyway, he talks about

29
00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:16.039
<v Speaker 2>the nuclear war this way. Remember this, folks, A full

30
00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:19.759
<v Speaker 2>scale nuclear war would mean about one hundred million Americans dead.

31
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:21.919
<v Speaker 2>Those hundred million are going to die one of these

32
00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:25.199
<v Speaker 2>days without nuclear anesthetic, and they will in almost any

33
00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:28.199
<v Speaker 2>case die more painfully. And well, let's have World War three.

34
00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:32.599
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he is really obscene. I think his mind got

35
00:02:32.680 --> 00:02:36.560
<v Speaker 3>frozen in the nineteen fifties during the McCarthy period, where

36
00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:40.199
<v Speaker 3>he literally believed that there was a monolithic totalitarian evil

37
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:42.919
<v Speaker 3>in the world, the Soviet Union, and everything they do

38
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:46.280
<v Speaker 3>is bad. Everything we do to counter this is good,

39
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:52.240
<v Speaker 3>including you know, war and militarism and even nuclear war

40
00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:55.400
<v Speaker 3>would be justified against this evil. It's almost sort of

41
00:02:55.439 --> 00:03:00.400
<v Speaker 3>a very simplicity Christian view of this Manichean religious in

42
00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:03.560
<v Speaker 3>the fourth century that saw a battle between Satan and

43
00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:07.159
<v Speaker 3>the Lord as the primary forces of history. And that's

44
00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:08.240
<v Speaker 3>Buckley's mindset.

45
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:10.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, there are a lot of religious nuts now who

46
00:03:10.280 --> 00:03:13.400
<v Speaker 2>are welcoming the nuclear holocaust because that would bring on

47
00:03:13.479 --> 00:03:17.039
<v Speaker 2>the second Coming of Jesus. So just don't have any

48
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:20.400
<v Speaker 2>of this nuclear free stuff. Well, they're even trying to

49
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.879
<v Speaker 2>say that nuclear war is okay in England. The Ministry

50
00:03:23.919 --> 00:03:30.479
<v Speaker 2>of Defense in England has a pr propaganda race going.

51
00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:33.879
<v Speaker 2>They're distributing pamphlets and for a while they were dickering

52
00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:36.879
<v Speaker 2>with J. Walter Thompson, the big American advertising firm, for

53
00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:40.719
<v Speaker 2>one point five million dollar contract to produce slick commercials

54
00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:43.360
<v Speaker 2>praising nuclear bombs and saying, hey, we can't let people

55
00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:48.439
<v Speaker 2>bullies around, we need these things. The Mother Jones quoted

56
00:03:49.240 --> 00:03:52.240
<v Speaker 2>somebody from the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament there when Senior

57
00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:55.520
<v Speaker 2>Bruce Kent he was saying, there's any factor that got

58
00:03:55.560 --> 00:03:58.360
<v Speaker 2>the people in England upset, it was our own government

59
00:03:58.439 --> 00:04:02.319
<v Speaker 2>civil defense program telling peopleeople to protect themselves against nuclear

60
00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:06.560
<v Speaker 2>war by staying at home, by hiding under kitchen tables

61
00:04:06.960 --> 00:04:11.240
<v Speaker 2>and whitewashing their windows. A recent poll, by the way,

62
00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:15.680
<v Speaker 2>indicates that one half of the British people are opposed

63
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:20.319
<v Speaker 2>to these additional missiles being brought into the British isles.

64
00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:22.600
<v Speaker 3>As are a growing number of the Germans. There's been

65
00:04:22.680 --> 00:04:26.560
<v Speaker 3>several articles about the growing resistance in Germany to the

66
00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:30.120
<v Speaker 3>implemmation of these missiles and that yeah, go ahead.

67
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Well in Germany, there was back in September. First thing

68
00:04:36.040 --> 00:04:38.879
<v Speaker 2>I've heard about it, the US soldiers had conducted a

69
00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:45.720
<v Speaker 2>mass mock burial exercise called well, I'll save the name

70
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:48.800
<v Speaker 2>until later, anyway, The exercise trained soldiers how to use

71
00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:51.800
<v Speaker 2>bulldozers to prepare for mass graves in the case of

72
00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:54.680
<v Speaker 2>nuclear war in Europe. It's the first time, according to the

73
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:57.879
<v Speaker 2>Army Stars and Stripes, that this occurred. This came from

74
00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:02.959
<v Speaker 2>Counterspy magazine and the code name for this exercise it

75
00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:04.639
<v Speaker 2>was Confident Enterprise.

76
00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:09.360
<v Speaker 3>Wow, I'm seeing there's a very interesting article in these

77
00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:11.879
<v Speaker 3>times that puts all of the new Cold War and

78
00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:14.839
<v Speaker 3>a very good perspective, and that is that the Reagan

79
00:05:14.839 --> 00:05:20.120
<v Speaker 3>administration has claimed that it's tremendous spending on defense, it's

80
00:05:20.199 --> 00:05:23.680
<v Speaker 3>building up of the nuclear Arsenal. The spending on these

81
00:05:23.720 --> 00:05:27.319
<v Speaker 3>military weapons, putting these weapons systems in Europe is all

82
00:05:27.399 --> 00:05:31.959
<v Speaker 3>necessary because Reagan claims over the last five or six years,

83
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:35.519
<v Speaker 3>the Russians have been increasing their spending on weapons or

84
00:05:35.560 --> 00:05:39.240
<v Speaker 3>developments of new weapons, whereas we've been decreasing our spending

85
00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:42.480
<v Speaker 3>and a falling behind the Soviet Union. Well, this article

86
00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:45.959
<v Speaker 3>and in these Times indicates that this is total nonsense,

87
00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:48.920
<v Speaker 3>based on complete myths and lies. First of all, they

88
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:52.399
<v Speaker 3>point out that military spending under the Carter years did

89
00:05:52.439 --> 00:05:56.800
<v Speaker 3>not decrease as Reagan claimed, but increased two point ninety

90
00:05:56.839 --> 00:06:01.680
<v Speaker 3>five percent from nineteen seventy seven through nine eighteen eighty one. Moreover,

91
00:06:01.759 --> 00:06:05.120
<v Speaker 3>the CIA has just come out with a report on

92
00:06:05.360 --> 00:06:09.800
<v Speaker 3>Soviet Economic Trends and Policy Development that claims that Soviet

93
00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:15.240
<v Speaker 3>spending for military weapons, etc. Has declined over the last

94
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:20.199
<v Speaker 3>years since nineteen seventy six, and that they're spending for

95
00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:23.639
<v Speaker 3>new weapons and their development of systems has been much

96
00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:28.040
<v Speaker 3>lower than the increases in American spending and the CIA

97
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:32.560
<v Speaker 3>and their report has documented this in great detail. Moreover,

98
00:06:32.680 --> 00:06:36.079
<v Speaker 3>Reagan administration has been claiming that one of the priorities

99
00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:39.600
<v Speaker 3>of the end dropoff administration in the Soviet Union is

100
00:06:39.639 --> 00:06:43.720
<v Speaker 3>also to develop new weapons systems to increase military spending,

101
00:06:43.759 --> 00:06:47.160
<v Speaker 3>et cetera, whereas the CIA report also indicate that that

102
00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:51.279
<v Speaker 3>is complete nonsense, that there has been a drop of

103
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:55.680
<v Speaker 3>spending for military means under end dropoff, who has been

104
00:06:55.720 --> 00:07:00.279
<v Speaker 3>dedicating the majority of his new spending programs to non

105
00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:05.560
<v Speaker 3>military civilian expenditures, etc. So that it's total nonsense that

106
00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:09.480
<v Speaker 3>the Soviets are spending more on money on weapon systems,

107
00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:12.920
<v Speaker 3>we're spending less. In fact, during the same period, the

108
00:07:12.959 --> 00:07:19.160
<v Speaker 3>Reagan administration has increased military spending sixteen point seven percent annually,

109
00:07:19.199 --> 00:07:23.040
<v Speaker 3>which is the biggest buildup of military defense spending in

110
00:07:23.079 --> 00:07:26.959
<v Speaker 3>American history, and in fact, the defense budget that was

111
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:30.279
<v Speaker 3>passed by the Reagan administration for the coming year is

112
00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:33.439
<v Speaker 3>the highest that has ever been spent in US history.

113
00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:37.040
<v Speaker 3>No less than two hundred and forty nine point eight

114
00:07:37.240 --> 00:07:41.040
<v Speaker 3>billion dollars will be spent on military spending by the

115
00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:45.399
<v Speaker 3>Reagan administration next year, which will include new weapon systems

116
00:07:45.399 --> 00:07:49.319
<v Speaker 3>such as the MX nuclear missile, the B one bombers,

117
00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:52.800
<v Speaker 3>and other billion dollar programs. For all of these new

118
00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:58.519
<v Speaker 3>missiles systems, In fact, the only systems that military systems

119
00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:02.600
<v Speaker 3>that the Reagan administration didn't get from Congress was a

120
00:08:02.639 --> 00:08:07.439
<v Speaker 3>nerve gas program twice. The Congress voted it down twice.

121
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:11.160
<v Speaker 3>The Senate approved it on a tie vote, with George

122
00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:15.680
<v Speaker 3>Bush casting the tie breaking vote in both cases, but

123
00:08:16.279 --> 00:08:20.120
<v Speaker 3>the Senate House Conference Committee killed the nerve gas program

124
00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:23.680
<v Speaker 3>both times. But otherwise Reagan got all the defense spend

125
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:24.600
<v Speaker 3>he wanted.

126
00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:27.680
<v Speaker 2>It's curious that this CIA report came out because two

127
00:08:27.759 --> 00:08:31.240
<v Speaker 2>years ago from the alternative press, you remember, we carried

128
00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:34.919
<v Speaker 2>stories with just this such analysis. And the fact that

129
00:08:34.960 --> 00:08:38.200
<v Speaker 2>the CIA seems to rediscover this two years later is

130
00:08:38.279 --> 00:08:40.039
<v Speaker 2>rather curious, and the fact that they would come out

131
00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:41.759
<v Speaker 2>with this right now is even more curious.

132
00:08:41.879 --> 00:08:45.320
<v Speaker 3>Reagan just plays fast and loose with his statistics and facts.

133
00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:48.120
<v Speaker 3>He's literally the biggest liar that we've ever seen in

134
00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:49.279
<v Speaker 3>the White House. And it's been.

135
00:08:53.120 --> 00:08:56.840
<v Speaker 2>Well along this same line. The Reagan administration, of course,

136
00:08:56.879 --> 00:09:00.600
<v Speaker 2>still clings to the zero option for your meaning that

137
00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:04.600
<v Speaker 2>Soviets have to dismantle all or most of their existing

138
00:09:04.679 --> 00:09:09.919
<v Speaker 2>intermediate range nuclear missiles and then return we will not

139
00:09:10.039 --> 00:09:14.519
<v Speaker 2>deploy or use the Pershing two or cruise missiles. Well,

140
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:22.639
<v Speaker 2>the Counterspy quoted a new Congressional Research Service study which

141
00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:27.039
<v Speaker 2>showed that the bases for the Reagan administration's claims that

142
00:09:27.080 --> 00:09:29.879
<v Speaker 2>they needed to do this were all false, mainly the

143
00:09:29.919 --> 00:09:33.360
<v Speaker 2>fact they were saying. The Soviets course say, well, we

144
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:35.759
<v Speaker 2>got to include the British and French missiles in here,

145
00:09:36.320 --> 00:09:38.519
<v Speaker 2>and the Reagan says, now, we don't need to do

146
00:09:38.600 --> 00:09:42.279
<v Speaker 2>this because the French and British forces are insignificant when

147
00:09:42.320 --> 00:09:45.480
<v Speaker 2>compared to the Soviet arsenal. But this new congressional study

148
00:09:45.480 --> 00:09:48.559
<v Speaker 2>says that isn't true. Britain has four submarines with sixteen

149
00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:54.399
<v Speaker 2>six warhead missiles each. France has five nuclear sub marines

150
00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:58.200
<v Speaker 2>with sixteen multiple warheads each and eighteen land based missiles

151
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:00.960
<v Speaker 2>and thirty four Mirage planes which can drop a load

152
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:03.799
<v Speaker 2>on the Soviet Union. And they're working up to fifteen

153
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:06.720
<v Speaker 2>hundred warheads and since it only takes a handful to

154
00:10:06.799 --> 00:10:10.840
<v Speaker 2>destroy the country, well that's a plenty. No, it's not

155
00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:15.159
<v Speaker 2>to Well, it's understandable the Soviets would be a bit

156
00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:18.279
<v Speaker 2>upset about that. Reagan also says that the British and

157
00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:20.960
<v Speaker 2>French forces are independent and uncommitted, the US doesn't have

158
00:10:21.000 --> 00:10:23.399
<v Speaker 2>any control over it. But this congressional study says, no,

159
00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:26.240
<v Speaker 2>that's not true. The British forces are going right along

160
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:28.679
<v Speaker 2>with and planned in with those of the US and

161
00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:32.600
<v Speaker 2>even the French, although they do have their own control

162
00:10:32.639 --> 00:10:36.960
<v Speaker 2>of it. They are signatory to some packs which indicate

163
00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:42.039
<v Speaker 2>that they will coordinate their military power with those of

164
00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:46.080
<v Speaker 2>the other European countries in the US. Reagan also says

165
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:50.200
<v Speaker 2>the British and French arms are strategic andnot theater nuclear weapons. Well,

166
00:10:50.240 --> 00:10:52.559
<v Speaker 2>when they had the Salt negotiations, the US was saying

167
00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:54.799
<v Speaker 2>it was just the opposite. So it depends on what

168
00:10:54.879 --> 00:10:58.440
<v Speaker 2>negotiations are using they label them the other way. And

169
00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:01.200
<v Speaker 2>that's our new segment this evening. Now let's turn to

170
00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:10.039
<v Speaker 2>our main focus, boy prostitution. Well, I'm drained already after

171
00:11:10.159 --> 00:11:13.320
<v Speaker 2>talking to you people for a couple of days about

172
00:11:13.320 --> 00:11:19.559
<v Speaker 2>this subject. I'm absolutely shocked and I feel degraded too

173
00:11:19.600 --> 00:11:22.240
<v Speaker 2>as a member of the human race. Tom, can you

174
00:11:22.840 --> 00:11:25.879
<v Speaker 2>first give a case history, just kind of a typical

175
00:11:25.919 --> 00:11:28.519
<v Speaker 2>case history, and then we'll talk in greater detail about

176
00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:29.600
<v Speaker 2>what happens.

177
00:11:30.120 --> 00:11:32.600
<v Speaker 1>All right, I can tell you the biography of a

178
00:11:32.639 --> 00:11:38.799
<v Speaker 1>little kid from a hollow in West Virginia whose mom

179
00:11:38.840 --> 00:11:41.679
<v Speaker 1>and dad went to Houston to find work. He thought

180
00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:46.840
<v Speaker 1>that Houston was the capital of opportunity in America. The

181
00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:49.480
<v Speaker 1>dad went out there to get a job, a low

182
00:11:49.559 --> 00:11:53.000
<v Speaker 1>level job with an oil company brought. The mother then

183
00:11:53.480 --> 00:11:57.919
<v Speaker 1>sent for little Jimmy and his little brother. Jimmy and

184
00:11:57.960 --> 00:12:04.000
<v Speaker 1>his brother got to Houston on a greyhound bus and

185
00:12:04.039 --> 00:12:06.080
<v Speaker 1>his dad mom failed to pick him up.

186
00:12:06.519 --> 00:12:07.519
<v Speaker 2>How old were they.

187
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:09.879
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy at that time was twelve and his little brother

188
00:12:10.080 --> 00:12:16.159
<v Speaker 1>was six. They spent the night in the terminal, Jimmy

189
00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:20.279
<v Speaker 1>fending off the advances of a number of men, and

190
00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:22.360
<v Speaker 1>then the dad came to pick him up. The next morning,

191
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:25.600
<v Speaker 1>the parents had both gotten drunk and forgotten to pick

192
00:12:25.679 --> 00:12:30.480
<v Speaker 1>up the kids. The boys went to live with their parents.

193
00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:34.799
<v Speaker 1>The parents both had severe drinking problems. The dad lost

194
00:12:34.840 --> 00:12:38.039
<v Speaker 1>his job, the mother got killed in a car wreck.

195
00:12:38.279 --> 00:12:42.200
<v Speaker 1>The little boy was severely injured. Jimmy dropped out of

196
00:12:42.240 --> 00:12:46.399
<v Speaker 1>school to try to hustle was his word, money to

197
00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:49.320
<v Speaker 1>help keep the family what was left of it together.

198
00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:54.480
<v Speaker 1>The dad died choking in his own vomit after a

199
00:12:54.559 --> 00:12:58.840
<v Speaker 1>drinking bout, and Jimmy was the sole support of himself

200
00:12:58.919 --> 00:13:03.679
<v Speaker 1>and his little brother. The rent was coming round and

201
00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:06.559
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy had no money. And then a neighbor kid said

202
00:13:06.559 --> 00:13:10.200
<v Speaker 1>to him, you can get ten dollars just for watching

203
00:13:10.279 --> 00:13:15.000
<v Speaker 1>me play with a man. And Jimmy said, that's queer,

204
00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:17.879
<v Speaker 1>and his friend said, it's not queer if the guy

205
00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:21.200
<v Speaker 1>does it to you, if you just let it happen,

206
00:13:21.279 --> 00:13:25.080
<v Speaker 1>and all you have to do is watch, Jimmy did it.

207
00:13:25.879 --> 00:13:29.519
<v Speaker 1>Then the man offered Jimmy twenty five dollars to let

208
00:13:29.559 --> 00:13:32.720
<v Speaker 1>the man play with Jimmy, and Jimmy took it, so

209
00:13:32.759 --> 00:13:36.480
<v Speaker 1>he had thirty five dollars, and then he got introduced

210
00:13:36.480 --> 00:13:40.200
<v Speaker 1>into the routine. Jimmy was little, only twelve, and he

211
00:13:40.279 --> 00:13:43.120
<v Speaker 1>was small for his age, and the circuit he went

212
00:13:43.159 --> 00:13:46.720
<v Speaker 1>on in Houston was not the main one, which is Montrose.

213
00:13:47.399 --> 00:13:51.679
<v Speaker 1>He went to a place nearby, an arcade called fun Land.

214
00:13:52.519 --> 00:13:54.879
<v Speaker 1>The way that worked was the boys would stand by

215
00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:57.600
<v Speaker 1>the machines and a man would come by. If the

216
00:13:57.639 --> 00:14:00.200
<v Speaker 1>man offered quarters, the boy would take him, and then

217
00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:04.120
<v Speaker 1>the man the boy would go off. Jimmy became a

218
00:14:04.159 --> 00:14:08.960
<v Speaker 1>professional prostitute at the age of twelve. He survived in

219
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:11.200
<v Speaker 1>that capacity until he was fourteen.

220
00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Was he working on his own or was he part

221
00:14:13.519 --> 00:14:14.360
<v Speaker 2>of an organization?

222
00:14:14.399 --> 00:14:16.240
<v Speaker 1>He was not part of an organization. He was what

223
00:14:16.240 --> 00:14:19.360
<v Speaker 1>they called the farm League, and he was taking care

224
00:14:19.399 --> 00:14:25.840
<v Speaker 1>of his little brother. His brother got killed in a

225
00:14:25.879 --> 00:14:28.759
<v Speaker 1>car wreck when he was driving with some people, and

226
00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:34.639
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy then was a desolate and almost destitute. He used

227
00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:38.919
<v Speaker 1>the last money he had to bury his brother. He

228
00:14:38.960 --> 00:14:41.240
<v Speaker 1>did not want to let his last surviving relative, his

229
00:14:41.279 --> 00:14:46.440
<v Speaker 1>grandpa in West Virginia, know the way things had gone.

230
00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:52.440
<v Speaker 1>A reporter in Houston last saw Jimmy across the street

231
00:14:52.519 --> 00:14:57.440
<v Speaker 1>from fun Land, and a man who used to pay

232
00:14:57.519 --> 00:15:03.000
<v Speaker 1>boys for sex then told this reporter, I know that boy.

233
00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:06.240
<v Speaker 1>He told the man who's a friend of mine, that

234
00:15:07.200 --> 00:15:09.559
<v Speaker 1>one time he was having sex with that little boy,

235
00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:13.360
<v Speaker 1>and then he realized that the boy was crying, and

236
00:15:13.399 --> 00:15:15.480
<v Speaker 1>he looked up and saw that the boy was sucking

237
00:15:15.480 --> 00:15:18.639
<v Speaker 1>his own thumb, and at that point he had to

238
00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:22.799
<v Speaker 1>break off the encounter. The journalist believes that this reformed

239
00:15:23.679 --> 00:15:27.159
<v Speaker 1>man who used to use boys was his own best friend.

240
00:15:27.159 --> 00:15:31.440
<v Speaker 1>The boy who had been having sex with Jimmy. Jimmy disappeared.

241
00:15:32.639 --> 00:15:38.320
<v Speaker 1>His body was later found mutilated, and his grandfather was notified.

242
00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:45.399
<v Speaker 1>The police then told the grandpa in a very cruel way,

243
00:15:46.159 --> 00:15:49.320
<v Speaker 1>that the grandpa shouldn't try to get a loan from

244
00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:51.679
<v Speaker 1>the city of Houston. It would cost five hundred dollars

245
00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:54.120
<v Speaker 1>to ship the body. To ship the body to West

246
00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:56.799
<v Speaker 1>Virginia because the boy was nothing but a harbor whore

247
00:15:57.440 --> 00:16:06.200
<v Speaker 1>or worse. Grandpa died shortly thereafter. The whole family is dead. Now.

248
00:16:08.200 --> 00:16:11.720
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy was a typical kid. He wasn't looking for this life.

249
00:16:12.159 --> 00:16:15.000
<v Speaker 1>He found it. He needed some means of support. He

250
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:17.320
<v Speaker 1>took what he could get, and he came to grief

251
00:16:17.639 --> 00:16:23.000
<v Speaker 1>and met his death. Houston is possibly the worst city

252
00:16:23.000 --> 00:16:28.080
<v Speaker 1>in the United States for the misuse of lost and

253
00:16:28.159 --> 00:16:34.159
<v Speaker 1>runaway boys or homeless defenseless boys. Probably three hundred and

254
00:16:34.200 --> 00:16:37.799
<v Speaker 1>fifty or more boys are killed every year in Houston.

255
00:16:37.919 --> 00:16:41.879
<v Speaker 4>About Houston, I would say I hear about Houston, but

256
00:16:41.960 --> 00:16:46.000
<v Speaker 4>it is the worst. That children are brought to Houston

257
00:16:46.039 --> 00:16:49.000
<v Speaker 4>from places such as New Orleans or from other parts

258
00:16:49.000 --> 00:16:50.480
<v Speaker 4>of the Southwest.

259
00:16:50.559 --> 00:16:53.120
<v Speaker 5>Their life is sad. It's one hundred percent sad.

260
00:16:53.159 --> 00:16:55.240
<v Speaker 6>They get up, you know, one or two or three

261
00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:57.679
<v Speaker 6>during the day and they go out and they have to.

262
00:16:57.639 --> 00:17:00.000
<v Speaker 5>Earn money, and they're treated bad.

263
00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:04.240
<v Speaker 6>They eat only when they're fed by somebody else, and

264
00:17:04.279 --> 00:17:05.680
<v Speaker 6>they never get anything for anything.

265
00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:08.079
<v Speaker 5>They always have to return sexual favors for it.

266
00:17:08.279 --> 00:17:11.119
<v Speaker 6>They sometimes get beaten, they get robbed, they get pushed,

267
00:17:11.440 --> 00:17:12.720
<v Speaker 6>you know, the police abuse them.

268
00:17:12.759 --> 00:17:14.839
<v Speaker 5>Everybody abuses them. One young man got out of a.

269
00:17:14.839 --> 00:17:16.599
<v Speaker 6>Car by young man, I mean the agent of probably

270
00:17:16.799 --> 00:17:19.039
<v Speaker 6>fifteen maybe sixteen, and then he got out of the

271
00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:21.319
<v Speaker 6>car and he was just badly beaten, I mean his

272
00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:23.000
<v Speaker 6>note to his bit. He looked right out of his

273
00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:25.680
<v Speaker 6>face was black and blue, and blood coming out of

274
00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:28.200
<v Speaker 6>his nose, and his lip was fat, and he couldn't

275
00:17:28.240 --> 00:17:30.759
<v Speaker 6>walk very well, and he was sick to his stomach

276
00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:34.759
<v Speaker 6>and the bushes and he was just very badly beaten evidently,

277
00:17:35.119 --> 00:17:37.359
<v Speaker 6>and got either a bad trip or the man was

278
00:17:37.400 --> 00:17:39.599
<v Speaker 6>on astinam or something, and just kind of like shoved

279
00:17:39.599 --> 00:17:40.240
<v Speaker 6>them out of the cars.

280
00:17:40.240 --> 00:17:42.599
<v Speaker 5>He went round the corner, opened the door for him,

281
00:17:42.599 --> 00:17:43.160
<v Speaker 5>said get out.

282
00:17:43.960 --> 00:17:47.680
<v Speaker 7>Any abem ever want to hurt you. That's why I

283
00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:48.640
<v Speaker 7>watch out for him.

284
00:17:48.799 --> 00:17:49.920
<v Speaker 1>Do you watch out for them?

285
00:17:50.279 --> 00:17:53.480
<v Speaker 7>How do you tell no when they started to jump

286
00:17:53.519 --> 00:17:56.759
<v Speaker 7>now want to jump on you? Yeah, if they didn't,

287
00:17:57.880 --> 00:17:59.799
<v Speaker 7>I'll be ready. I'll be watching other time.

288
00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:02.039
<v Speaker 8>What do you be doing then.

289
00:18:02.119 --> 00:18:04.640
<v Speaker 7>Laying down bed letting just watching?

290
00:18:05.039 --> 00:18:06.240
<v Speaker 1>What if they start to jump on you?

291
00:18:06.279 --> 00:18:06.799
<v Speaker 9>What can you do.

292
00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:09.759
<v Speaker 10>I always care pocketnized somebody that I don't know if

293
00:18:09.759 --> 00:18:11.440
<v Speaker 10>they hurt me or not. You know, I just watch

294
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:15.200
<v Speaker 10>out for him just in case they do start out

295
00:18:15.240 --> 00:18:15.400
<v Speaker 10>of ten.

296
00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:16.279
<v Speaker 5>I'm weird.

297
00:18:16.720 --> 00:18:18.680
<v Speaker 9>I mean, they get you know.

298
00:18:19.319 --> 00:18:21.200
<v Speaker 11>There was one guy that picked me up in Atlanta

299
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:25.000
<v Speaker 11>and he just said that, you know, he wanted somebody

300
00:18:25.079 --> 00:18:26.519
<v Speaker 11>to go out and have a few beers when he

301
00:18:26.599 --> 00:18:31.000
<v Speaker 11>was smoking joint. And we got over there and I

302
00:18:31.039 --> 00:18:33.079
<v Speaker 11>was drinking his beer and all of a sudden, you know,

303
00:18:34.039 --> 00:18:36.119
<v Speaker 11>doing like that, and I couldn't even see straight. My

304
00:18:36.160 --> 00:18:39.440
<v Speaker 11>eyes were rolling back, and then the room started spinning

305
00:18:39.440 --> 00:18:40.640
<v Speaker 11>and I was out of it.

306
00:18:40.759 --> 00:18:42.519
<v Speaker 9>When I came around, he had me tied.

307
00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:45.960
<v Speaker 11>Up in the basement, no less way up like this,

308
00:18:46.079 --> 00:18:48.240
<v Speaker 11>you know, and I couldn't even move.

309
00:18:49.400 --> 00:18:50.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I stretched.

310
00:18:50.440 --> 00:18:51.960
<v Speaker 5>What was he doing to you?

311
00:18:52.039 --> 00:18:52.400
<v Speaker 9>Nothing?

312
00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:54.640
<v Speaker 11>He was just sitting there with this whip looking like

313
00:18:54.680 --> 00:18:56.880
<v Speaker 11>he's gonna hit me with it. He just threatened me

314
00:18:56.920 --> 00:18:58.559
<v Speaker 11>a lot, and I was sitting there crying and scared

315
00:18:58.559 --> 00:19:00.960
<v Speaker 11>to death, you know, because well the worst I could

316
00:19:00.960 --> 00:19:01.480
<v Speaker 11>do is kill me.

317
00:19:02.200 --> 00:19:05.559
<v Speaker 8>That interview was conducted several months ago in Houston, Texas.

318
00:19:05.720 --> 00:19:08.720
<v Speaker 8>Investigators now fear that the fifteen year old is dead.

319
00:19:09.119 --> 00:19:12.279
<v Speaker 8>The body of a young man found ritualistically dismembered and

320
00:19:12.359 --> 00:19:13.920
<v Speaker 8>Missouri is thought to be his.

321
00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:14.799
<v Speaker 11>Oh.

322
00:19:14.799 --> 00:19:17.960
<v Speaker 9>Oh, he was clamping handcuffs on me.

323
00:19:18.680 --> 00:19:19.839
<v Speaker 2>I was laying on my stomach.

324
00:19:20.519 --> 00:19:22.240
<v Speaker 9>The other two were on their stomach.

325
00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:23.599
<v Speaker 5>And they were handcuffing. Their feet were tired.

326
00:19:23.799 --> 00:19:26.720
<v Speaker 8>The most shocking and horrifying result of older men having

327
00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:29.599
<v Speaker 8>sex with young boys is the story of Dean Coral

328
00:19:29.640 --> 00:19:32.680
<v Speaker 8>in Houston, Texas, and more recently John Gasey in Chicago.

329
00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:35.759
<v Speaker 8>In Houston, Carl lord Or had brought to his home

330
00:19:35.799 --> 00:19:39.000
<v Speaker 8>at least twenty seven young boys, all under the age

331
00:19:39.000 --> 00:19:44.119
<v Speaker 8>of seventeen. The boys were sexually assaulted then killed in Houston.

332
00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:50.200
<v Speaker 1>I give the figure based on I think prudent calculations

333
00:19:50.200 --> 00:19:52.559
<v Speaker 1>that upwards of three hundred and fifty boys a year

334
00:19:52.599 --> 00:19:57.319
<v Speaker 1>are killed deliberately because of this. Many more die of

335
00:19:57.599 --> 00:20:03.720
<v Speaker 1>drug over use, nutrition of suicide. The national toll per

336
00:20:03.839 --> 00:20:09.319
<v Speaker 1>year is in the thousands. Every year kids die violently

337
00:20:09.400 --> 00:20:14.160
<v Speaker 1>because of this. In the first three months of this

338
00:20:14.240 --> 00:20:19.799
<v Speaker 1>year nineteen eighty one, thirty boys were found dead in Houston.

339
00:20:20.400 --> 00:20:25.119
<v Speaker 1>None of them was called a homicide. They were found

340
00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:29.480
<v Speaker 1>to be dead of exposure. Debt of cause is undetermined

341
00:20:31.160 --> 00:20:35.119
<v Speaker 1>debt of massive internal bleeding, as in the case of

342
00:20:35.160 --> 00:20:37.680
<v Speaker 1>one child under ten who was found naked in a

343
00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:42.119
<v Speaker 1>Dempsey dumpster with his colon and his rectum torn apart.

344
00:20:42.599 --> 00:20:45.039
<v Speaker 1>He was called not a homicide but a victim of

345
00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:47.319
<v Speaker 1>massive internal injury.

346
00:20:47.559 --> 00:20:48.559
<v Speaker 2>He was fist raped.

347
00:20:48.960 --> 00:20:51.920
<v Speaker 3>Yes, what is the sort of psychic roots or the

348
00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:54.480
<v Speaker 3>nature of this phenomenon.

349
00:20:57.160 --> 00:21:00.000
<v Speaker 1>I've been studying this phenomenon since the spring of nineteen

350
00:21:01.160 --> 00:21:05.440
<v Speaker 1>and to the best of my knowledge, most men who

351
00:21:05.599 --> 00:21:11.319
<v Speaker 1>seek sex from boys are not homosexuals to the extent

352
00:21:11.400 --> 00:21:14.799
<v Speaker 1>that they have active sex lives at the peer level.

353
00:21:15.519 --> 00:21:19.279
<v Speaker 1>They are heterosexual. Many of them have no peer sex

354
00:21:19.440 --> 00:21:24.359
<v Speaker 1>at all. There are gay people who are what we

355
00:21:24.480 --> 00:21:28.799
<v Speaker 1>call petteris, that is, men who lust after children, especially boys.

356
00:21:29.519 --> 00:21:32.440
<v Speaker 1>But it appears to be the case that most such

357
00:21:32.680 --> 00:21:39.480
<v Speaker 1>men are not gay. That their attraction is for young,

358
00:21:40.319 --> 00:21:45.880
<v Speaker 1>defenseless children, especially boys, because they're more exotic and more forbidden.

359
00:21:47.359 --> 00:21:54.759
<v Speaker 1>But it is not a matter of gay rights as

360
00:21:54.799 --> 00:22:00.759
<v Speaker 1>advocated by practically anybody. This is a much different phenomenon.

361
00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:07.799
<v Speaker 1>The reason that the gay community usually scorns any investigation

362
00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:11.720
<v Speaker 1>of the subject is that they know that the average

363
00:22:11.799 --> 00:22:16.000
<v Speaker 1>person in the public will blame homosexuals and homosexuality for

364
00:22:16.079 --> 00:22:19.079
<v Speaker 1>the phenomenon, regardless of what facts are presented.

365
00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, this is not just a sexual thing in the

366
00:22:22.519 --> 00:22:25.039
<v Speaker 2>way we talk about it. It's a power trip and

367
00:22:25.119 --> 00:22:29.759
<v Speaker 2>it's also a sadistic thing because these kids are tortured

368
00:22:29.759 --> 00:22:30.200
<v Speaker 2>and killed.

369
00:22:30.480 --> 00:22:33.799
<v Speaker 12>Kind of individuals involved are down the line almost in

370
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:37.119
<v Speaker 12>every instance. In the cases I've investigated, men who are

371
00:22:37.200 --> 00:22:41.720
<v Speaker 12>very powerful, usually very wealthy, and usually administrate control over

372
00:22:41.759 --> 00:22:42.799
<v Speaker 12>a large number of people.

373
00:22:43.400 --> 00:22:46.960
<v Speaker 13>Wealthy Houstonians can and do obtain boys in a most

374
00:22:47.000 --> 00:22:47.920
<v Speaker 13>discreet manner.

375
00:22:48.079 --> 00:22:50.759
<v Speaker 14>It's gotten a little more sophisticated now, it's gotten more,

376
00:22:52.319 --> 00:22:57.920
<v Speaker 14>it's gotten more expensive prices, higher prices are paid, and

377
00:22:57.960 --> 00:23:03.799
<v Speaker 14>it's it's gotten a little more whisticated in terms of Oh,

378
00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:06.559
<v Speaker 14>I think the types of people who are who are

379
00:23:06.880 --> 00:23:10.359
<v Speaker 14>into it, types of adults who are into it, professional.

380
00:23:09.759 --> 00:23:15.640
<v Speaker 1>People Houston professional people. Yeah, yeah, soliciting boys, oh.

381
00:23:15.559 --> 00:23:19.480
<v Speaker 9>Sure, you know, I mean a millionaire.

382
00:23:19.480 --> 00:23:23.839
<v Speaker 15>And you have people here that are so wealthy that

383
00:23:23.880 --> 00:23:25.880
<v Speaker 15>they can't let anybody know what they're doing, that they're

384
00:23:25.920 --> 00:23:28.440
<v Speaker 15>willing to pay two three four hundred dollars a night,

385
00:23:29.279 --> 00:23:31.240
<v Speaker 15>you know, for one of these boys not to say

386
00:23:31.480 --> 00:23:40.119
<v Speaker 15>anything about them, you know, you got judges, doctors, lawyers, politicians, advertising.

387
00:23:39.440 --> 00:23:42.720
<v Speaker 3>People involved in.

388
00:23:41.759 --> 00:23:44.599
<v Speaker 6>In buying young people, if it's for an hour, for

389
00:23:44.640 --> 00:23:46.319
<v Speaker 6>a night, or for a month or per year.

390
00:23:47.000 --> 00:23:49.119
<v Speaker 1>They actually have white slavery in this country.

391
00:23:49.359 --> 00:23:53.400
<v Speaker 16>So facts, and then in Houston right now it's going on, Tom.

392
00:23:53.599 --> 00:23:58.039
<v Speaker 3>Is there any evidence that there's any connection with organized crime?

393
00:23:58.519 --> 00:24:01.920
<v Speaker 3>Obviously with other forms of prostitution that we know about,

394
00:24:02.119 --> 00:24:06.480
<v Speaker 3>they're close connections. The mafia has always utilized prostitution as

395
00:24:06.519 --> 00:24:09.839
<v Speaker 3>one of the pillars of its organizations and sources of

396
00:24:09.880 --> 00:24:13.240
<v Speaker 3>its income. Is there any connection here that has been

397
00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:15.799
<v Speaker 3>revealed with organized crime.

398
00:24:16.319 --> 00:24:19.640
<v Speaker 1>Yes, when we're talking about four hundred kids on the

399
00:24:19.680 --> 00:24:21.839
<v Speaker 1>street between two and four in the morning and a

400
00:24:21.880 --> 00:24:25.880
<v Speaker 1>city like Houston, there's very little organization. There may be

401
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:28.920
<v Speaker 1>a runner or a pimp who's trying to squeeze the

402
00:24:28.960 --> 00:24:31.559
<v Speaker 1>boys a little, but there's no big businessman running a

403
00:24:31.559 --> 00:24:36.480
<v Speaker 1>sophisticated operation. But when there is a bookstore with forty stalls,

404
00:24:38.160 --> 00:24:41.839
<v Speaker 1>there's often a stable of boys. That's fairly good sized business.

405
00:24:42.039 --> 00:24:44.400
<v Speaker 1>And there's bigger business than that. That's the call boy

406
00:24:44.440 --> 00:24:48.279
<v Speaker 1>operations like this one we described with the ten thousand customers,

407
00:24:48.799 --> 00:24:51.799
<v Speaker 1>that's big business. It's crime. It's organized, but it's not

408
00:24:51.880 --> 00:24:57.920
<v Speaker 1>the mafia. It's the pillars of our society. There is

409
00:24:58.440 --> 00:25:03.160
<v Speaker 1>big business ice crime. It's sophisticated. It's closely attached to

410
00:25:04.079 --> 00:25:11.400
<v Speaker 1>the major financial, commercial, industrial, educational institutions of our society.

411
00:25:12.599 --> 00:25:15.279
<v Speaker 1>It's run by the same people who run those. It's

412
00:25:15.319 --> 00:25:19.160
<v Speaker 1>frequented by the same people who occupy management positions in those.

413
00:25:19.400 --> 00:25:25.480
<v Speaker 1>It's not the mafia, it's it's an adjunct of clean business.

414
00:25:26.000 --> 00:25:30.960
<v Speaker 1>It's serving the most respectable people we have in our society,

415
00:25:31.039 --> 00:25:32.720
<v Speaker 1>the people who are the elite.

416
00:25:33.240 --> 00:25:37.079
<v Speaker 2>I assume you can't name names at this particular time, but.

417
00:25:37.599 --> 00:25:39.599
<v Speaker 1>Not of people haven't been apprehended yet.

418
00:25:39.559 --> 00:25:44.960
<v Speaker 2>Right, Okay, are senators involved? Us senators? Well, but Congressman,

419
00:25:45.880 --> 00:25:48.559
<v Speaker 2>let me give you some information here. Now, this is

420
00:25:48.599 --> 00:25:52.680
<v Speaker 2>stuff that has come out of newspaper clippings. It has

421
00:25:52.720 --> 00:25:55.200
<v Speaker 2>gotten far enough to get in the newspaper, even if

422
00:25:55.200 --> 00:26:00.000
<v Speaker 2>it hasn't been followed up. This was potentially the big

423
00:26:00.319 --> 00:26:01.200
<v Speaker 2>case of all.

424
00:26:03.279 --> 00:26:03.359
<v Speaker 9>That.

425
00:26:03.480 --> 00:26:04.279
<v Speaker 2>The one in New Orleans.

426
00:26:04.440 --> 00:26:08.240
<v Speaker 1>Yes, a New Orleans Boy Scout troop was busted for

427
00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:12.839
<v Speaker 1>actually being a callboy ring of boy prostitutes. The man

428
00:26:12.920 --> 00:26:15.200
<v Speaker 1>who was the leader of the boy Scout troop was

429
00:26:15.200 --> 00:26:18.480
<v Speaker 1>given seventy five years in prison, and then he offered

430
00:26:18.480 --> 00:26:21.680
<v Speaker 1>to tell a story. The story he told was that

431
00:26:21.720 --> 00:26:25.039
<v Speaker 1>the congressional delegations from two states, one of which was

432
00:26:25.079 --> 00:26:29.559
<v Speaker 1>Louisiana and one of which bordered Louisiana, and as he

433
00:26:29.599 --> 00:26:33.079
<v Speaker 1>put it, the entire hierarchy of one of the states,

434
00:26:33.160 --> 00:26:37.039
<v Speaker 1>as far as top political posts, were all involved as

435
00:26:37.359 --> 00:26:40.319
<v Speaker 1>customers of the little boys. And he said he was

436
00:26:40.359 --> 00:26:44.559
<v Speaker 1>willing to name all the names. That was a UPI

437
00:26:44.680 --> 00:26:47.400
<v Speaker 1>story of twenty six November nineteen seventy nine, and he

438
00:26:47.480 --> 00:26:52.160
<v Speaker 1>never talked again. As he said, he's still in jail.

439
00:26:52.200 --> 00:26:55.000
<v Speaker 1>He said there was one US Senator and many congressmen,

440
00:26:55.359 --> 00:26:56.079
<v Speaker 1>weren't there.

441
00:26:55.920 --> 00:27:02.359
<v Speaker 3>A couple actually right wing, knew right and representatives congressmen

442
00:27:02.440 --> 00:27:08.640
<v Speaker 3>in Washington, bamen who were actually well found guilty of

443
00:27:08.799 --> 00:27:10.759
<v Speaker 3>molesting Doug.

444
00:27:11.319 --> 00:27:16.640
<v Speaker 1>I wish you were right. Congressman Robert Bauman was apprehended

445
00:27:16.640 --> 00:27:20.400
<v Speaker 1>in February of nineteen eighty having sex with a sixteen

446
00:27:20.480 --> 00:27:26.119
<v Speaker 1>year old boy. For some reason, no charges were brought

447
00:27:26.160 --> 00:27:30.880
<v Speaker 1>until September nineteen eighty. At that point, the FBI and

448
00:27:30.960 --> 00:27:33.960
<v Speaker 1>the US Attorney made an agreement to keep all details

449
00:27:34.000 --> 00:27:37.599
<v Speaker 1>of the account out of public records. The charges were

450
00:27:37.680 --> 00:27:40.920
<v Speaker 1>dropped on Bauman's promised that he would take a drug

451
00:27:41.039 --> 00:27:46.160
<v Speaker 1>or an alcoholic abuse treatment program. He continued in office,

452
00:27:46.200 --> 00:27:49.559
<v Speaker 1>and he ran for reelection. He was defeated, but he

453
00:27:49.599 --> 00:27:52.119
<v Speaker 1>said he would go on to run again. William F.

454
00:27:52.119 --> 00:27:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Buckley is one of his closest friends. They were co

455
00:27:55.240 --> 00:27:59.000
<v Speaker 1>founders of Young Americans for Freedom in the American Conservative Union.

456
00:27:59.599 --> 00:28:03.720
<v Speaker 1>The way Buckley put it was this, it transpires that

457
00:28:03.839 --> 00:28:09.480
<v Speaker 1>during alcoholic bouts he engages in homosexual acts. He went

458
00:28:09.519 --> 00:28:11.640
<v Speaker 1>on to say there was a complaint filed by a

459
00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:15.079
<v Speaker 1>sixteen year old boy. Then he went on to say

460
00:28:15.119 --> 00:28:18.160
<v Speaker 1>Bomba should resign from Congress and resign from the positions

461
00:28:18.160 --> 00:28:23.319
<v Speaker 1>and conservative organizations because he was an embarrassment. Bauma never

462
00:28:23.400 --> 00:28:26.119
<v Speaker 1>went to trial. He didn't actually go to a formal

463
00:28:26.200 --> 00:28:29.920
<v Speaker 1>pre trial hearing either. Then there was a Texas Congressman Wyatt,

464
00:28:31.319 --> 00:28:35.960
<v Speaker 1>who was caught well, actually, I take it back, he

465
00:28:36.000 --> 00:28:40.759
<v Speaker 1>was not caught. A juvenile reported that Wyatt had forced

466
00:28:40.839 --> 00:28:44.880
<v Speaker 1>sex on him. Charges were never filed. That's a quote.

467
00:28:46.039 --> 00:28:48.799
<v Speaker 1>Charges were never filed, despite the fact that the boy

468
00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:52.720
<v Speaker 1>had filed a complaint, and Wyatt said he was going

469
00:28:52.759 --> 00:28:56.799
<v Speaker 1>to run again when it was published in the Austin

470
00:28:56.880 --> 00:29:01.119
<v Speaker 1>Paper that the complaint was not that he was drunk driving,

471
00:29:01.200 --> 00:29:04.680
<v Speaker 1>but that he had forced sex on a juvenile. Mail

472
00:29:04.960 --> 00:29:08.960
<v Speaker 1>He said he wouldn't run again. He was already in

473
00:29:09.039 --> 00:29:12.720
<v Speaker 1>the alcohol rehabilitation program. So there was no trial, no

474
00:29:12.759 --> 00:29:14.799
<v Speaker 1>pre trial hearing, no charges.

475
00:29:15.640 --> 00:29:20.839
<v Speaker 2>Wasn't there another ring of tour guides, boys's tour guides

476
00:29:20.880 --> 00:29:21.559
<v Speaker 2>for congressmen?

477
00:29:21.759 --> 00:29:23.640
<v Speaker 1>Well, that you may be referring to the case of

478
00:29:23.720 --> 00:29:27.839
<v Speaker 1>Representative Henson, Republican from Mississippi, who was found having sex

479
00:29:27.880 --> 00:29:32.160
<v Speaker 1>with somebody in the men's room of the Longworth House

480
00:29:32.200 --> 00:29:38.079
<v Speaker 1>office building. There conflicting accounts. According to one account he

481
00:29:38.160 --> 00:29:42.440
<v Speaker 1>was having sex with a minor. According to another account

482
00:29:42.440 --> 00:29:47.680
<v Speaker 1>he was having sex with an adult. He said he

483
00:29:47.759 --> 00:29:51.759
<v Speaker 1>was innocent, and he agreed to undergo alcohol abuse treatment

484
00:29:52.720 --> 00:29:57.240
<v Speaker 1>and he was not charged. Well, there were many charges

485
00:29:57.279 --> 00:29:57.839
<v Speaker 1>were dropped.

486
00:29:57.960 --> 00:30:01.119
<v Speaker 2>Well, what was the story about the about the young

487
00:30:01.160 --> 00:30:04.079
<v Speaker 2>boys being tour GUIDs for the capitol? And this was

488
00:30:04.119 --> 00:30:08.279
<v Speaker 2>also part of a little boy sex ring, and also

489
00:30:10.119 --> 00:30:13.319
<v Speaker 2>some of it resulted in campaign contributions. I read that, and.

490
00:30:13.559 --> 00:30:16.640
<v Speaker 1>That has to do with the state of Texas as

491
00:30:16.680 --> 00:30:21.640
<v Speaker 1>a matter of fact. And here's the way we can

492
00:30:21.640 --> 00:30:22.319
<v Speaker 1>tell that story.

493
00:30:22.599 --> 00:30:23.880
<v Speaker 2>This is one you can't tell.

494
00:30:24.279 --> 00:30:26.559
<v Speaker 1>We got into the newspaper. Yeah, I saw the news,

495
00:30:26.720 --> 00:30:30.559
<v Speaker 1>but then it disappeared. What appeared in the newspaper was

496
00:30:30.839 --> 00:30:35.119
<v Speaker 1>a boy's home run by a Texas state representative was

497
00:30:35.160 --> 00:30:40.000
<v Speaker 1>being investigated for charge of abuse of the boys. The

498
00:30:40.039 --> 00:30:43.599
<v Speaker 1>state representative said that there was no abuse. He claimed

499
00:30:43.599 --> 00:30:46.599
<v Speaker 1>that his place could not be investigated by the state

500
00:30:46.680 --> 00:30:51.559
<v Speaker 1>because it was private, like that of Reverend roll Off.

501
00:30:53.680 --> 00:30:55.920
<v Speaker 1>The story died and didn't appear in the press anymore.

502
00:30:58.039 --> 00:31:03.119
<v Speaker 1>The lead that produced the initial story was that that

503
00:31:03.240 --> 00:31:10.359
<v Speaker 1>representative took campaign contributions and then the contributors, as a reward,

504
00:31:10.440 --> 00:31:12.119
<v Speaker 1>got to have sex with the boys in the home,

505
00:31:13.279 --> 00:31:15.920
<v Speaker 1>and that he did this for more than himself, but

506
00:31:16.079 --> 00:31:20.000
<v Speaker 1>for other representatives. That man is out of the state legislature.

507
00:31:20.359 --> 00:31:26.920
<v Speaker 2>So we've talked about legislators, congressmen, senator, senators, people in

508
00:31:27.039 --> 00:31:31.720
<v Speaker 2>the highest ranks of the government at the local, at

509
00:31:31.759 --> 00:31:34.680
<v Speaker 2>the state level. Now, are these just operations or is

510
00:31:34.720 --> 00:31:38.359
<v Speaker 2>this part of a widespread ongoing thing.

511
00:31:39.960 --> 00:31:46.160
<v Speaker 1>I think it's very widespread, and not just among powerful politicians.

512
00:31:46.200 --> 00:31:50.920
<v Speaker 1>We've talked about politicians, but it seems to be the

513
00:31:50.960 --> 00:31:53.759
<v Speaker 1>case that in all high powered.

514
00:31:53.440 --> 00:31:58.039
<v Speaker 2>Professions corporations, and now we're talking.

515
00:31:57.799 --> 00:32:05.400
<v Speaker 1>About corporations, met in law, even the university, not necessarily

516
00:32:05.559 --> 00:32:13.039
<v Speaker 1>professions with bloated salaries, but prestige, some power, influence, and

517
00:32:13.079 --> 00:32:18.079
<v Speaker 1>above all pressure. The men involved are susceptible to this

518
00:32:18.240 --> 00:32:19.119
<v Speaker 1>kind of deviation.

519
00:32:19.720 --> 00:32:23.480
<v Speaker 17>I'm working right now, you know, like just you know,

520
00:32:23.559 --> 00:32:25.119
<v Speaker 17>with the corporation.

521
00:32:25.599 --> 00:32:27.680
<v Speaker 5>And what's that? How does that work?

522
00:32:28.240 --> 00:32:34.039
<v Speaker 17>Well, when they're executives or you know, their business people

523
00:32:34.079 --> 00:32:39.640
<v Speaker 17>are in town, they're sent to our apartment and we

524
00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:41.359
<v Speaker 17>entertain them while they're here.

525
00:32:42.200 --> 00:32:44.319
<v Speaker 2>Okay, what's that entertainment usually involved?

526
00:32:44.359 --> 00:32:46.359
<v Speaker 5>What do they usually demand or what do they want?

527
00:32:46.960 --> 00:32:50.880
<v Speaker 17>Well, it's all kinds of sex and perversions. There's no two. Like,

528
00:32:51.000 --> 00:32:55.240
<v Speaker 17>I've decided that everyone's in for something different, so I

529
00:32:55.279 --> 00:32:57.279
<v Speaker 17>can't really stereotype the hope.

530
00:32:57.640 --> 00:32:59.359
<v Speaker 5>Yes, all the men want different things.

531
00:32:59.640 --> 00:33:06.720
<v Speaker 17>Yeah, right, but we're usually in the passive side and

532
00:33:06.759 --> 00:33:08.759
<v Speaker 17>they're usually the dominant player.

533
00:33:18.680 --> 00:33:22.200
<v Speaker 10>Well, it was a real old man, older man right

534
00:33:22.279 --> 00:33:24.640
<v Speaker 10>about in his sixties seventies.

535
00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:25.920
<v Speaker 17>What does he do?

536
00:33:25.920 --> 00:33:29.039
<v Speaker 8>A great hospitals.

537
00:33:32.079 --> 00:33:33.680
<v Speaker 7>Operates on paper.

538
00:33:35.319 --> 00:33:35.680
<v Speaker 3>Doctor.

539
00:33:36.160 --> 00:33:39.759
<v Speaker 1>We've talked about those men who have achieved power and

540
00:33:39.880 --> 00:33:42.400
<v Speaker 1>also among those men who wanted it but didn't get it.

541
00:33:43.079 --> 00:33:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Men like poor Gasey in Chicago, who killed at least

542
00:33:45.880 --> 00:33:49.599
<v Speaker 1>thirty three boys. He was not a well to do man,

543
00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:51.720
<v Speaker 1>but he was a joiner. He paid high dues to

544
00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:54.680
<v Speaker 1>join men's clubs. He paid one thousand dollars to join

545
00:33:54.720 --> 00:33:58.799
<v Speaker 1>the President's Club so he could have dinner with Jimmy Carter. Instead,

546
00:33:58.799 --> 00:34:01.200
<v Speaker 1>he had dinner with Missus Carr, had his picture taken

547
00:34:01.240 --> 00:34:05.440
<v Speaker 1>with her. He was an upwards striver. He killed at

548
00:34:05.559 --> 00:34:10.000
<v Speaker 1>least thirty three boys. He offered in his defense that

549
00:34:10.079 --> 00:34:13.039
<v Speaker 1>he could not identify any of the thirty three boys

550
00:34:13.360 --> 00:34:16.119
<v Speaker 1>by face or by name, because he had had sex

551
00:34:17.039 --> 00:34:20.639
<v Speaker 1>with fifteen hundred different boys in the previous five years,

552
00:34:21.239 --> 00:34:24.039
<v Speaker 1>three hundred different kids a year, and most of them,

553
00:34:24.159 --> 00:34:27.679
<v Speaker 1>as he said, were prostitutes. He didn't snatch them off

554
00:34:27.679 --> 00:34:31.239
<v Speaker 1>the street. He went out and bought their services, and

555
00:34:31.320 --> 00:34:35.119
<v Speaker 1>then he coerced them, as this lawyer in Washington says,

556
00:34:35.119 --> 00:34:37.840
<v Speaker 1>no one ever does. He made them captives, and he

557
00:34:37.960 --> 00:34:38.400
<v Speaker 1>killed them.

558
00:34:39.400 --> 00:34:42.400
<v Speaker 2>What about women and the positions of power in government?

559
00:34:42.599 --> 00:34:44.880
<v Speaker 2>You don't find women involved in that, Well.

560
00:34:44.719 --> 00:34:47.280
<v Speaker 12>You don't find many women involved in positions of power

561
00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:48.800
<v Speaker 12>in the American.

562
00:34:48.679 --> 00:34:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that explains the what appears to be the fact

563
00:34:53.480 --> 00:34:59.199
<v Speaker 1>women don't do this to little girls. Heterosexual women. Homosexual

564
00:34:59.239 --> 00:35:03.280
<v Speaker 1>women' do this to little girls or a little boy

565
00:35:03.519 --> 00:35:07.880
<v Speaker 1>or little boys. I mean, it happens, but it's not common,

566
00:35:07.960 --> 00:35:12.239
<v Speaker 1>it's not ordinary. It's not a phenomenon in the threat.

567
00:35:13.480 --> 00:35:16.000
<v Speaker 1>If you have a little girl and you have an

568
00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:21.320
<v Speaker 1>adult female friend, you needn't have any apprehension. But if

569
00:35:21.320 --> 00:35:26.599
<v Speaker 1>you have little kids who are boys, they are in

570
00:35:26.639 --> 00:35:29.239
<v Speaker 1>more danger than the little girls today.

571
00:35:29.280 --> 00:35:32.880
<v Speaker 3>Why do you think there's so much violence caught up

572
00:35:32.880 --> 00:35:33.039
<v Speaker 3>in this?

573
00:35:33.519 --> 00:35:37.239
<v Speaker 8>Investigations in other cities have shown that boys thirteen fourteen,

574
00:35:37.440 --> 00:35:41.760
<v Speaker 8>even younger are coerced into prostitution with threats of physical violence,

575
00:35:41.960 --> 00:35:45.119
<v Speaker 8>and are sometimes shipped across state lines, shipped to the

576
00:35:45.199 --> 00:35:49.920
<v Speaker 8>older adult men who desire young boys for sexual acts. Occasionally,

577
00:35:49.960 --> 00:35:53.719
<v Speaker 8>these boys episodes with their older clients ends and physical violence.

578
00:35:54.039 --> 00:35:56.920
<v Speaker 8>There are men who seek young boys to torture and

579
00:35:57.000 --> 00:35:58.400
<v Speaker 8>sometimes to kill.

580
00:35:58.559 --> 00:36:03.039
<v Speaker 1>This phenomenon is nique to America. It may not even

581
00:36:03.039 --> 00:36:07.280
<v Speaker 1>be unique to advanced industrial urban societies. In the other

582
00:36:07.320 --> 00:36:09.719
<v Speaker 1>places where it occurs, though it doesn't seem to be

583
00:36:09.760 --> 00:36:14.800
<v Speaker 1>attended by a high level of mayhemic violence in the

584
00:36:14.880 --> 00:36:16.360
<v Speaker 1>United States, it is.

585
00:36:16.599 --> 00:36:20.239
<v Speaker 3>In Islamic countries, for instance, a prostitution with boys at

586
00:36:20.239 --> 00:36:24.199
<v Speaker 3>a standard. I've been in Morocco and Algeria and observed this,

587
00:36:24.639 --> 00:36:27.360
<v Speaker 3>and yet I've never heard any stories of violence being involved.

588
00:36:27.400 --> 00:36:30.280
<v Speaker 3>In other words, it's an erotic phenomenon. As a proposed

589
00:36:30.320 --> 00:36:33.360
<v Speaker 3>it as power or psychological.

590
00:36:35.440 --> 00:36:37.679
<v Speaker 1>Well, there are those who would have us believe that

591
00:36:37.679 --> 00:36:43.519
<v Speaker 1>that is the case in America. Here, for instance, is

592
00:36:43.559 --> 00:36:47.440
<v Speaker 1>an article written by a law professor in Washington, d c.

593
00:36:48.079 --> 00:36:51.159
<v Speaker 1>Who was general counsel to the Metropolitan Police Department. This

594
00:36:51.280 --> 00:36:54.960
<v Speaker 1>article was written in nineteen eighty one. He says, if

595
00:36:54.960 --> 00:36:58.320
<v Speaker 1>the boys are victims, it is largely in the technical sense.

596
00:36:58.719 --> 00:37:02.519
<v Speaker 1>It is more accurate to drives them as entrepreneurs who

597
00:37:02.559 --> 00:37:05.639
<v Speaker 1>by and large understand their own motivations. They do it

598
00:37:05.719 --> 00:37:09.679
<v Speaker 1>for money, for drugs, for pleasure, and perhaps for some

599
00:37:09.920 --> 00:37:14.440
<v Speaker 1>is a crude gambit for emotional sustenance. But unlike teenage

600
00:37:14.559 --> 00:37:18.280
<v Speaker 1>girl prostitutes, they do not act out of fear. There

601
00:37:18.320 --> 00:37:22.440
<v Speaker 1>is no coerced recruitment, no whippings, no incarcerations in their rooms,

602
00:37:22.440 --> 00:37:28.519
<v Speaker 1>and no sweet talking pimps with cadillacs. That's not what

603
00:37:28.599 --> 00:37:29.800
<v Speaker 1>I have found.

604
00:37:30.119 --> 00:37:32.679
<v Speaker 3>So you think that's false, that Washington Police Chief.

605
00:37:32.800 --> 00:37:35.239
<v Speaker 1>I think it's false, and I think it's a deliberate falsehood.

606
00:37:36.239 --> 00:37:38.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, let's talk about we haven't talked about the proliferation

607
00:37:38.519 --> 00:37:41.280
<v Speaker 2>of the United States of this. We've talked about a

608
00:37:41.320 --> 00:37:44.920
<v Speaker 2>few individual cases. How widespread is it and what are

609
00:37:44.920 --> 00:37:46.239
<v Speaker 2>the numbers we're talking about?

610
00:37:47.199 --> 00:37:49.639
<v Speaker 1>Well, we know of this. For instance, this is a standard.

611
00:37:50.119 --> 00:37:52.480
<v Speaker 1>A half a million kids run away or are thrown

612
00:37:52.519 --> 00:37:55.079
<v Speaker 1>out of homes every year in the United States, and

613
00:37:55.119 --> 00:37:59.280
<v Speaker 1>the majority of them are boys. Another thing that the

614
00:37:59.320 --> 00:38:04.440
<v Speaker 1>Presidents Commission on Obscenity found. This is the commission that

615
00:38:04.679 --> 00:38:11.679
<v Speaker 1>Richard Nixon repudiated. It mentioned in passing that child pornography

616
00:38:11.760 --> 00:38:15.079
<v Speaker 1>was a phenomenon of the abuse of children, and then

617
00:38:15.119 --> 00:38:18.000
<v Speaker 1>went on to say that for every female prostitute of

618
00:38:18.039 --> 00:38:20.480
<v Speaker 1>any age in the United States, there are nine boys

619
00:38:21.039 --> 00:38:25.840
<v Speaker 1>under age who are prostitutes. That is a finding which

620
00:38:25.880 --> 00:38:30.159
<v Speaker 1>is debatable and is a speculation, but it went unnoticed.

621
00:38:32.199 --> 00:38:35.199
<v Speaker 1>I think though, that if you're getting in a car

622
00:38:35.199 --> 00:38:38.880
<v Speaker 1>in pro all the streets of the capitals of this

623
00:38:39.599 --> 00:38:46.440
<v Speaker 1>practice Houston, New Orleans, Atlanta, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles,

624
00:38:47.039 --> 00:38:51.199
<v Speaker 1>and to a much lesser extent, Austin. Our state capitol

625
00:38:51.199 --> 00:38:55.119
<v Speaker 1>and Washington, the nation's capital, you'll find that boys are

626
00:38:55.199 --> 00:38:57.119
<v Speaker 1>the ones hustling more than the women.

627
00:38:58.000 --> 00:39:00.559
<v Speaker 3>Mark some of the research that you do it in

628
00:39:00.599 --> 00:39:03.599
<v Speaker 3>Austin here that started off your involvement in this issue,

629
00:39:03.760 --> 00:39:08.039
<v Speaker 3>indicated that there was a possible ring of homosexual boys

630
00:39:08.039 --> 00:39:10.800
<v Speaker 3>in Austin. Could you tell some of the facts on

631
00:39:10.880 --> 00:39:11.400
<v Speaker 3>this case.

632
00:39:11.679 --> 00:39:15.679
<v Speaker 12>Well, my interest in this whole issue originated when as

633
00:39:15.719 --> 00:39:18.480
<v Speaker 12>a reporter for the Daily Text and we heard through

634
00:39:18.480 --> 00:39:23.199
<v Speaker 12>the grapevine that a pharmacist here in town had been busted.

635
00:39:23.840 --> 00:39:26.920
<v Speaker 12>And I don't remember the original charge. I'm not sure

636
00:39:26.920 --> 00:39:28.519
<v Speaker 12>if the abuse of a boy in home, I guess

637
00:39:28.519 --> 00:39:34.400
<v Speaker 12>it was abusive. That's abusive, a boy in a halfway house. Well,

638
00:39:34.639 --> 00:39:37.960
<v Speaker 12>the thing that interested us about the case was that

639
00:39:38.000 --> 00:39:41.800
<v Speaker 12>the police had later found in his home a file

640
00:39:41.840 --> 00:39:45.320
<v Speaker 12>and index file of anywhere from two to five hundred

641
00:39:45.400 --> 00:39:49.400
<v Speaker 12>names of young boys in the around the Travis County

642
00:39:49.440 --> 00:39:53.639
<v Speaker 12>area and counties company in Travis County, and it had

643
00:39:53.639 --> 00:39:58.679
<v Speaker 12>their names, phone numbers, parents' names in many cases, sexual

644
00:40:01.239 --> 00:40:05.800
<v Speaker 12>statistics on the on the personnel height, age, weight, and

645
00:40:05.840 --> 00:40:09.519
<v Speaker 12>in some cases preferences. And that sounded like an astounding

646
00:40:09.639 --> 00:40:12.000
<v Speaker 12>thing to us that there should be somebody.

647
00:40:11.599 --> 00:40:13.679
<v Speaker 16>Traveling around, and what he did was he would hang.

648
00:40:13.639 --> 00:40:17.199
<v Speaker 12>Out at high schools and and offer the drugs that

649
00:40:17.199 --> 00:40:18.320
<v Speaker 12>he had available, as he was.

650
00:40:18.320 --> 00:40:22.280
<v Speaker 16>A pharmacist, in exchange for sexual favors.

651
00:40:23.519 --> 00:40:27.519
<v Speaker 12>Well, we followed that up and and uh somewhere down

652
00:40:27.559 --> 00:40:34.159
<v Speaker 12>the line of judicial uh scrutiny, the entire the evidence

653
00:40:34.239 --> 00:40:38.519
<v Speaker 12>was lost or disappeared or was unable to be retracted,

654
00:40:39.880 --> 00:40:41.480
<v Speaker 12>and they're there.

655
00:40:42.559 --> 00:40:45.079
<v Speaker 16>It complicates from there, but that's that's how we got

656
00:40:45.159 --> 00:40:45.840
<v Speaker 16>well Anderson.

657
00:40:46.000 --> 00:40:49.559
<v Speaker 1>His name was Anderson, Robert Anderson. He was found guilty

658
00:40:50.079 --> 00:40:53.360
<v Speaker 1>of one charge and sentenced to two years in prison,

659
00:40:54.639 --> 00:40:57.639
<v Speaker 1>and then he skipped. He was he was still not incarcerated.

660
00:40:57.679 --> 00:40:59.280
<v Speaker 1>He skipped and he's ever been found again.

661
00:40:59.440 --> 00:41:03.079
<v Speaker 3>It was there any indication that he was involved with

662
00:41:03.159 --> 00:41:06.400
<v Speaker 3>other men who were participating in these favors and others.

663
00:41:06.400 --> 00:41:10.280
<v Speaker 3>What would the point of him keeping these cards be

664
00:41:10.760 --> 00:41:12.119
<v Speaker 3>unless there was some sort of business.

665
00:41:12.400 --> 00:41:14.800
<v Speaker 1>He was an agent. He was an agent, and he

666
00:41:14.920 --> 00:41:20.679
<v Speaker 1>had quantities of drugs. Mark didn't mention that he listed

667
00:41:20.679 --> 00:41:23.119
<v Speaker 1>next to the name of each boy that boy's personal

668
00:41:23.159 --> 00:41:27.840
<v Speaker 1>drug preference. And he also had a very large quantity

669
00:41:27.880 --> 00:41:31.079
<v Speaker 1>of muscle relaxes to administer to boys, to make sense

670
00:41:31.239 --> 00:41:32.400
<v Speaker 1>easier for the men.

671
00:41:33.440 --> 00:41:35.360
<v Speaker 12>Not only that, but there was also the names of

672
00:41:35.480 --> 00:41:45.199
<v Speaker 12>several several well known business men in the Texas community that,

673
00:41:45.800 --> 00:41:47.880
<v Speaker 12>for obvious reasons, were contacts.

674
00:41:48.599 --> 00:41:51.519
<v Speaker 2>Okay, what about you talked about boy scout groups and

675
00:41:51.599 --> 00:41:52.519
<v Speaker 2>boys homes.

676
00:41:53.400 --> 00:42:00.119
<v Speaker 1>What about these, Well, a boy's home is an an

677
00:42:00.119 --> 00:42:03.840
<v Speaker 1>ideal place if you want to get in on an

678
00:42:03.840 --> 00:42:07.000
<v Speaker 1>operation and get hold of some vulnerable kids, it's an

679
00:42:07.000 --> 00:42:10.679
<v Speaker 1>ideal place to do it. In San Antonio this August,

680
00:42:11.039 --> 00:42:15.280
<v Speaker 1>two men who were supposed to be Catholic priests were

681
00:42:15.360 --> 00:42:19.079
<v Speaker 1>arrested for sodomizing fifty boys ages three and a half

682
00:42:19.119 --> 00:42:24.320
<v Speaker 1>to fourteen that year, and they had several hundred boys

683
00:42:24.320 --> 00:42:27.079
<v Speaker 1>in the past three years. They're having sex with the

684
00:42:27.079 --> 00:42:29.840
<v Speaker 1>boys on a regular basis. That was why they established

685
00:42:29.840 --> 00:42:33.880
<v Speaker 1>the home to get at little boys. In Dallas, a

686
00:42:33.960 --> 00:42:37.719
<v Speaker 1>place was closed down the year before. In Houston. Jimmy

687
00:42:37.840 --> 00:42:39.599
<v Speaker 1>was in a home in Houston for a while and

688
00:42:39.639 --> 00:42:43.440
<v Speaker 1>he was raped by his caretaker. That place was closed down.

689
00:42:44.039 --> 00:42:47.280
<v Speaker 1>In Houston, there are only forty two beds available in

690
00:42:47.320 --> 00:42:50.119
<v Speaker 1>all the homes for boys in the whole city, and

691
00:42:50.159 --> 00:42:54.719
<v Speaker 1>one of the homes that still opened was previously investigated

692
00:42:54.760 --> 00:42:58.159
<v Speaker 1>and the rest were made because of attacks on the boys.

693
00:42:59.039 --> 00:43:02.599
<v Speaker 1>It's very common. It's very hard to trust any place

694
00:43:02.679 --> 00:43:06.000
<v Speaker 1>that presents itself as a home for boys. And one

695
00:43:06.039 --> 00:43:09.239
<v Speaker 1>of the tragedies of that is when somebody opens one

696
00:43:09.280 --> 00:43:12.320
<v Speaker 1>that is clean, like Covenant House in New York City

697
00:43:12.679 --> 00:43:16.400
<v Speaker 1>operated by Father Bruce Ritter, the first thing that happens

698
00:43:16.440 --> 00:43:19.199
<v Speaker 1>is there's a smear campaign against it, and everybody says

699
00:43:19.320 --> 00:43:22.079
<v Speaker 1>it's dirty too. So if there's a clean one, it

700
00:43:22.079 --> 00:43:25.920
<v Speaker 1>gets a bad name. The object is that to make

701
00:43:25.960 --> 00:43:28.239
<v Speaker 1>it impossible to tell the good ones from the bad ones.

702
00:43:28.679 --> 00:43:30.800
<v Speaker 2>I guess the boy Scout people have this problem too.

703
00:43:31.039 --> 00:43:34.239
<v Speaker 1>Yes, we've mentioned a couple of boy sCOD rings. That

704
00:43:34.280 --> 00:43:37.559
<v Speaker 1>doesn't mean that the boy Scouts or an organized group

705
00:43:38.000 --> 00:43:41.039
<v Speaker 1>to feed pederis.

706
00:43:41.960 --> 00:43:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Yes, what about judges and police.

707
00:43:45.159 --> 00:43:50.480
<v Speaker 1>Judges and police are in high pressure professions too. To

708
00:43:50.559 --> 00:43:54.719
<v Speaker 1>my knowledge, the police are involved less as practitioners of

709
00:43:54.760 --> 00:43:59.679
<v Speaker 1>this than the other stressful professions. By far. We mentioned

710
00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:04.360
<v Speaker 1>to mention the clergy with all regret, the clergy is

711
00:44:04.480 --> 00:44:08.000
<v Speaker 1>highly susceptible to this. Real priests and not just bogus

712
00:44:08.039 --> 00:44:11.079
<v Speaker 1>priests like those in San Antonio.

713
00:44:11.320 --> 00:44:14.960
<v Speaker 3>You mentioned some of the worst phenomena here these mass

714
00:44:15.039 --> 00:44:19.159
<v Speaker 3>murders in Houston and in Chicago. Does this connect with

715
00:44:19.199 --> 00:44:22.079
<v Speaker 3>Atlanta in any way. There's been, as you know, mass

716
00:44:22.159 --> 00:44:26.039
<v Speaker 3>murders of all these black children in Atlanta, and as

717
00:44:26.039 --> 00:44:30.079
<v Speaker 3>I recalled, the FBI when they initially got in the case,

718
00:44:30.159 --> 00:44:33.679
<v Speaker 3>after they made this a federal case, Reagan or I

719
00:44:33.679 --> 00:44:36.800
<v Speaker 3>guess it was Bush went down there. The FBI came

720
00:44:36.840 --> 00:44:40.039
<v Speaker 3>out with a report that indicated there may be sex

721
00:44:40.079 --> 00:44:43.000
<v Speaker 3>abuse of some sort in the death of these children.

722
00:44:43.079 --> 00:44:45.360
<v Speaker 3>Then it seemed to be pretty much dropped after an

723
00:44:45.400 --> 00:44:48.480
<v Speaker 3>initial play in the media. Do you have any comments

724
00:44:48.480 --> 00:44:48.880
<v Speaker 3>on that.

725
00:44:49.400 --> 00:44:53.719
<v Speaker 1>Yes. The first indications that leaked out that may be

726
00:44:53.920 --> 00:45:00.679
<v Speaker 1>the kids who were victimized in Atlanta murdered were actually

727
00:45:01.239 --> 00:45:04.800
<v Speaker 1>boy prostitutes who went to the people in the cars

728
00:45:05.239 --> 00:45:10.480
<v Speaker 1>to make a contact came out in February, and then

729
00:45:10.800 --> 00:45:16.800
<v Speaker 1>National Cable News Network and ABC News tried to mention

730
00:45:16.960 --> 00:45:20.280
<v Speaker 1>this as a possibility. It's a very delicate thing. It's

731
00:45:20.320 --> 00:45:24.079
<v Speaker 1>almost an insult in affront to the black community to

732
00:45:24.119 --> 00:45:29.199
<v Speaker 1>say the Angels of Atlanta were really prostitutes. Unless you

733
00:45:29.360 --> 00:45:33.039
<v Speaker 1>believe as I do, and unlike that law professor, I,

734
00:45:33.679 --> 00:45:37.519
<v Speaker 1>unless you believe they're victims, they're not responsible for what

735
00:45:38.199 --> 00:45:43.039
<v Speaker 1>is happening. They're being used and abused, but the public

736
00:45:43.079 --> 00:45:46.079
<v Speaker 1>reaction was chilly, so the networks dropped it. They revived

737
00:45:46.079 --> 00:45:50.960
<v Speaker 1>it in April and dropped it again. I have headlines

738
00:45:51.000 --> 00:45:55.960
<v Speaker 1>here quotations from news broadcasts about the boys possibly being

739
00:45:56.440 --> 00:45:59.599
<v Speaker 1>hustlers and that fellow who has been arrested and indicted

740
00:45:59.639 --> 00:46:07.920
<v Speaker 1>being photographer procureur. Among the mothers of the first ten kids,

741
00:46:08.119 --> 00:46:11.599
<v Speaker 1>those women who went public and talked about their predicament

742
00:46:12.920 --> 00:46:16.119
<v Speaker 1>is one who said to the Wire Services in an interview,

743
00:46:16.679 --> 00:46:20.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm afraid my son was involved in prostitution. I'm afraid

744
00:46:20.639 --> 00:46:23.199
<v Speaker 1>that that's what got him killed. I'm afraid it's the

745
00:46:23.280 --> 00:46:27.440
<v Speaker 1>link to the whole series of murders. And no newspaper

746
00:46:27.480 --> 00:46:29.880
<v Speaker 1>in America printed the wire service copy.

747
00:46:29.800 --> 00:46:34.079
<v Speaker 3>Isn't part of this whole phenomenon dealt with a business

748
00:46:34.280 --> 00:46:39.599
<v Speaker 3>of pornography, child pornography. Pictures are taken of these acts,

749
00:46:39.920 --> 00:46:43.000
<v Speaker 3>films are made, and it's Wayne Williams. We know is

750
00:46:43.039 --> 00:46:46.719
<v Speaker 3>a photographer, and we know he has training electronics, he'd

751
00:46:47.039 --> 00:46:50.599
<v Speaker 3>done radio work, he'd done recording work. So might he

752
00:46:50.760 --> 00:46:56.400
<v Speaker 3>be involved in a film organization and indeed possibly even

753
00:46:56.440 --> 00:47:00.639
<v Speaker 3>a snuff organization. There's been some evidence about US films

754
00:47:00.679 --> 00:47:04.679
<v Speaker 3>where people are literally killed on film and that these

755
00:47:04.719 --> 00:47:08.280
<v Speaker 3>are distributed the films, So is there some possibility that

756
00:47:08.280 --> 00:47:09.320
<v Speaker 3>that might be involved.

757
00:47:09.519 --> 00:47:11.679
<v Speaker 1>I think it's possible, and I think it's likely. We

758
00:47:11.679 --> 00:47:14.239
<v Speaker 1>were talking about an ongoing case, and I think we

759
00:47:14.360 --> 00:47:19.000
<v Speaker 1>have to be very careful about what we say. In Houston,

760
00:47:19.320 --> 00:47:23.000
<v Speaker 1>I have seen myself big vans that don't have cabs

761
00:47:23.039 --> 00:47:25.480
<v Speaker 1>on them, and I've seen young kids go into the

762
00:47:25.559 --> 00:47:28.519
<v Speaker 1>van and not emerge for an hour or an hour

763
00:47:28.519 --> 00:47:31.480
<v Speaker 1>and a half, and sometimes with the door open. I've

764
00:47:31.480 --> 00:47:35.159
<v Speaker 1>seen photographic equipment inside. A raid was made on a

765
00:47:35.239 --> 00:47:38.559
<v Speaker 1>mansion in Houston. Although the newspapers in Houston referred to

766
00:47:38.639 --> 00:47:42.679
<v Speaker 1>it as a flat, it was a mansion. Inside that

767
00:47:42.760 --> 00:47:48.440
<v Speaker 1>mansion was more photographic equipment than klrn KLRU possesses, and

768
00:47:48.480 --> 00:47:52.880
<v Speaker 1>that's one of the biggest stations in the Southwest, bigger

769
00:47:52.920 --> 00:47:57.079
<v Speaker 1>than Channel thirteen in Houston possesses. Channel thirteen played up

770
00:47:57.079 --> 00:48:00.880
<v Speaker 1>the raid with the news media. Besides Channel thirteen didn't.

771
00:48:01.159 --> 00:48:04.840
<v Speaker 1>It was as if five guys in a little studio

772
00:48:05.239 --> 00:48:07.960
<v Speaker 1>were taking candid camera shots of kids. They were producing

773
00:48:08.039 --> 00:48:11.360
<v Speaker 1>books in there. There was also an interest in Houston

774
00:48:11.719 --> 00:48:16.599
<v Speaker 1>in nineteen eighty one of a man who sold twenty

775
00:48:16.719 --> 00:48:22.400
<v Speaker 1>different films child pornography films to somebody from Boston. He

776
00:48:22.480 --> 00:48:27.280
<v Speaker 1>was committing several federal crimes and doing that, and among

777
00:48:27.320 --> 00:48:30.239
<v Speaker 1>those films, although the newspapers would not print the information

778
00:48:31.440 --> 00:48:34.639
<v Speaker 1>among those films was that of an infant being sexually

779
00:48:34.719 --> 00:48:38.039
<v Speaker 1>used by men, and a film in which somebody appears

780
00:48:38.079 --> 00:48:44.199
<v Speaker 1>to have been murdered. That person hasn't gone to jail yet.

781
00:48:44.480 --> 00:48:47.960
<v Speaker 2>What about the bookstores and the places where they show

782
00:48:48.920 --> 00:48:52.239
<v Speaker 2>movies and stuff like this here in town form.

783
00:48:52.159 --> 00:48:54.440
<v Speaker 12>I think how much you don't find this sort of

784
00:48:54.440 --> 00:48:57.719
<v Speaker 12>thing in the bookstores because it's the people who are

785
00:48:57.760 --> 00:49:00.400
<v Speaker 12>trading and dealing with this kind of thing is very

786
00:49:00.440 --> 00:49:04.440
<v Speaker 12>clandestine operation, and having gone through an investigation myself, I

787
00:49:04.480 --> 00:49:05.719
<v Speaker 12>know how absolutely.

788
00:49:05.239 --> 00:49:07.000
<v Speaker 16>Impossible it is to trail of this stuff.

789
00:49:07.519 --> 00:49:09.719
<v Speaker 12>I mean, if you're dealing with people who are not stupid,

790
00:49:10.280 --> 00:49:12.719
<v Speaker 12>you know they are levels of power because they're intelligent

791
00:49:12.719 --> 00:49:18.320
<v Speaker 12>people by and large, and they cover their tracks and

792
00:49:18.360 --> 00:49:21.039
<v Speaker 12>they're not about to be dealing with them through the bookstores.

793
00:49:21.079 --> 00:49:23.639
<v Speaker 12>I think maybe five years ago you could find that

794
00:49:23.679 --> 00:49:26.400
<v Speaker 12>sort of thing, but now I think it's been pretty

795
00:49:26.440 --> 00:49:27.440
<v Speaker 12>much cleaned up time they have.

796
00:49:28.039 --> 00:49:28.320
<v Speaker 3>Well.

797
00:49:28.400 --> 00:49:33.079
<v Speaker 1>I went into a bookstore in Austin two years ago

798
00:49:33.760 --> 00:49:38.000
<v Speaker 1>in daylight, and my experience is the difference between the

799
00:49:38.000 --> 00:49:40.880
<v Speaker 1>operation and daytime, and daytime is the difference between night

800
00:49:40.920 --> 00:49:45.559
<v Speaker 1>and day. Yet in daylight, I first bought a magazine

801
00:49:45.559 --> 00:49:48.320
<v Speaker 1>that had pictures of people of borderline age that could

802
00:49:48.320 --> 00:49:51.000
<v Speaker 1>have been eighteen, that could have been seventeen, and seventeen

803
00:49:51.119 --> 00:49:57.840
<v Speaker 1>is legal. And then I had the names of illegal publications.

804
00:49:58.159 --> 00:50:02.159
<v Speaker 1>I first asked for a register that listed boys by description.

805
00:50:02.480 --> 00:50:04.840
<v Speaker 1>It was a catalog order a boy.

806
00:50:05.360 --> 00:50:08.960
<v Speaker 3>I asked for that bookstore here in Austin's.

807
00:50:08.239 --> 00:50:13.039
<v Speaker 1>A crime to print that, to reproduce it, to distribute it,

808
00:50:13.079 --> 00:50:15.760
<v Speaker 1>to buy it, to possess it. I broke the law

809
00:50:15.840 --> 00:50:18.400
<v Speaker 1>by saying I want that, and the guy reached under

810
00:50:18.400 --> 00:50:20.559
<v Speaker 1>the counter handed it to me, and I said what

811
00:50:20.639 --> 00:50:22.440
<v Speaker 1>about this? And he handed me that, and I said

812
00:50:22.480 --> 00:50:24.880
<v Speaker 1>what about this one? He handed me one more, and

813
00:50:24.920 --> 00:50:27.519
<v Speaker 1>I walked out of there with a lot of illegal goods.

814
00:50:27.800 --> 00:50:32.800
<v Speaker 1>It was in the daytime. I understand that as of

815
00:50:32.840 --> 00:50:36.400
<v Speaker 1>now nineteen eighty one, the same bookstores don't let somebody

816
00:50:36.440 --> 00:50:39.360
<v Speaker 1>they don't know do that sort of thing, even at night.

817
00:50:40.159 --> 00:50:44.800
<v Speaker 1>But I've been in places in Houston within the last

818
00:50:44.840 --> 00:50:48.199
<v Speaker 1>several months. One in particular I can describe. You had

819
00:50:48.280 --> 00:50:53.880
<v Speaker 1>forty cubicles where supposedly men go in and put in

820
00:50:54.000 --> 00:50:58.599
<v Speaker 1>quarters to watch dirty movies, and outside every cubicle was

821
00:50:58.639 --> 00:51:02.320
<v Speaker 1>a little boy. I was approached both by little boys

822
00:51:02.960 --> 00:51:05.239
<v Speaker 1>as if I were a man who might want a boy,

823
00:51:05.280 --> 00:51:07.280
<v Speaker 1>and I was approached by older men who, in the

824
00:51:07.360 --> 00:51:13.760
<v Speaker 1>dark thought I looked young. That was on a weeknight,

825
00:51:14.360 --> 00:51:17.840
<v Speaker 1>not on Friday or Saturday in Houston.

826
00:51:18.840 --> 00:51:20.239
<v Speaker 16>When I started following up.

827
00:51:21.679 --> 00:51:24.239
<v Speaker 12>Some films that we heard were circulating in the Houston area,

828
00:51:24.280 --> 00:51:26.039
<v Speaker 12>I called an old friend of mine while I was

829
00:51:26.039 --> 00:51:29.719
<v Speaker 12>investigating another case involved in this, because we heard that

830
00:51:29.800 --> 00:51:33.000
<v Speaker 12>it had been viewed by the District Turns office in Houston.

831
00:51:34.199 --> 00:51:35.159
<v Speaker 16>This friend was a good.

832
00:51:35.039 --> 00:51:38.880
<v Speaker 12>Friend who had known through from bars, you know, I mean,

833
00:51:38.920 --> 00:51:43.280
<v Speaker 12>in a very social atmosphere, not a professional one. I

834
00:51:43.360 --> 00:51:46.920
<v Speaker 12>called him to ask about if he had heard anything

835
00:51:46.920 --> 00:51:50.679
<v Speaker 12>about this film or viewed it himself. Perhaps he answered

836
00:51:50.719 --> 00:51:52.719
<v Speaker 12>the phone, I said hello, and we chatted for him,

837
00:51:52.719 --> 00:51:54.039
<v Speaker 12>and I said, by the way, have you heard anything

838
00:51:54.079 --> 00:51:56.119
<v Speaker 12>about this film? And he cut me off and said,

839
00:51:56.119 --> 00:51:58.079
<v Speaker 12>I've never talked to you before in my life boom,

840
00:51:58.199 --> 00:52:00.360
<v Speaker 12>and I've never talked to him again. And I've known

841
00:52:00.400 --> 00:52:02.199
<v Speaker 12>this guy for a couple of years. As sin as

842
00:52:02.239 --> 00:52:03.400
<v Speaker 12>I mentioned that film, It's like.

843
00:52:03.960 --> 00:52:06.920
<v Speaker 1>When Boyce for Sale was shown on TV. It was

844
00:52:06.960 --> 00:52:10.239
<v Speaker 1>shown first as a nightly series and then there was

845
00:52:10.280 --> 00:52:14.239
<v Speaker 1>a summary program. The biggest bank in Houston withdrew its

846
00:52:14.320 --> 00:52:18.920
<v Speaker 1>advertising from the show and from the station because it

847
00:52:19.000 --> 00:52:23.519
<v Speaker 1>showed that program. And the bank managed to get the

848
00:52:24.199 --> 00:52:27.639
<v Speaker 1>other advertisers for that program to withdraw their advertisings.

849
00:52:27.719 --> 00:52:29.440
<v Speaker 12>And if I might interject this just for a moment,

850
00:52:30.039 --> 00:52:35.480
<v Speaker 12>because it was it ties into the power problems I

851
00:52:35.480 --> 00:52:38.800
<v Speaker 12>remember originally with the Robert Anderson, the pharmacists we talked

852
00:52:38.840 --> 00:52:42.840
<v Speaker 12>about earlier. One of the items found in his apartment

853
00:52:42.960 --> 00:52:46.000
<v Speaker 12>was a wallet or checkbook I.

854
00:52:45.920 --> 00:52:49.639
<v Speaker 16>Guess, with the student's address the name on it.

855
00:52:50.840 --> 00:52:53.639
<v Speaker 12>Well, we started make some phone calls and try to

856
00:52:53.719 --> 00:52:56.760
<v Speaker 12>contact this person. We finally got through to his father

857
00:52:57.280 --> 00:52:59.880
<v Speaker 12>and it turned out it was one of the major

858
00:53:00.039 --> 00:53:04.000
<v Speaker 12>banks in Dallas. His father was the bank president, and

859
00:53:04.079 --> 00:53:07.079
<v Speaker 12>we thought we had a hot league going. And next thing,

860
00:53:07.079 --> 00:53:09.920
<v Speaker 12>I know, I can't mention the names here, but a

861
00:53:10.119 --> 00:53:16.760
<v Speaker 12>very powerful law enforcement agency head called us that we

862
00:53:16.760 --> 00:53:20.519
<v Speaker 12>were asking about this individual's name in Dallas, and he

863
00:53:20.800 --> 00:53:24.320
<v Speaker 12>called us back and said, and it was so cryptic

864
00:53:24.519 --> 00:53:27.440
<v Speaker 12>that it was unusual. He just said, all I can

865
00:53:27.519 --> 00:53:31.920
<v Speaker 12>say is forget Dallas, you know, like, don't touch it.

866
00:53:32.840 --> 00:53:35.360
<v Speaker 13>The Texas House Committee has been charged with looking at

867
00:53:35.400 --> 00:53:38.440
<v Speaker 13>the problem. To public hearings later, the committee has been

868
00:53:38.559 --> 00:53:42.239
<v Speaker 13>unable to make any serious progress. Its budget was slashed

869
00:53:42.239 --> 00:53:45.679
<v Speaker 13>from eighty thousand to fifteen thousand dollars, hardly enough to

870
00:53:45.719 --> 00:53:48.760
<v Speaker 13>do an honest probe, and the committee chairman admits to

871
00:53:48.880 --> 00:53:51.360
<v Speaker 13>knowing of the problem in Houston, but says he's been

872
00:53:51.400 --> 00:53:52.440
<v Speaker 13>told to back off.

873
00:53:52.800 --> 00:53:55.800
<v Speaker 18>When we started this committee, we asked for money to

874
00:53:55.840 --> 00:53:59.639
<v Speaker 18>do an adequate investigation to determine just how serious the

875
00:53:59.679 --> 00:54:04.679
<v Speaker 18>problem of child pornography, child prostitution, sexual exploitation is here

876
00:54:04.719 --> 00:54:09.000
<v Speaker 18>in Texas, which I think is a proper thing for

877
00:54:09.039 --> 00:54:09.960
<v Speaker 18>this committee to do.

878
00:54:10.599 --> 00:54:10.800
<v Speaker 3>Now.

879
00:54:10.920 --> 00:54:13.440
<v Speaker 18>That was the first indication that we had pressure on it's.

880
00:54:13.440 --> 00:54:15.960
<v Speaker 18>The second indication was when I appeared before the House

881
00:54:16.239 --> 00:54:20.719
<v Speaker 18>Administration Committee when they chopped our budget, and subsequent conversations

882
00:54:20.760 --> 00:54:24.559
<v Speaker 18>with certain members that said we have got to stop

883
00:54:24.559 --> 00:54:25.360
<v Speaker 18>our investigation.

884
00:54:25.440 --> 00:54:26.559
<v Speaker 5>Hey, did they want you to stop?

885
00:54:26.880 --> 00:54:30.159
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why. I have no find out I

886
00:54:30.199 --> 00:54:31.039
<v Speaker 1>plan to find out.

887
00:54:31.079 --> 00:54:33.519
<v Speaker 18>I think it's serious that they were getting this kind

888
00:54:33.559 --> 00:54:34.039
<v Speaker 18>of pressure.

889
00:54:35.519 --> 00:54:38.760
<v Speaker 2>The concluding program of Boys for Sale will emphasize the

890
00:54:38.840 --> 00:54:42.440
<v Speaker 2>law enforcement and judicial performances, the handling of the subject

891
00:54:42.480 --> 00:54:45.679
<v Speaker 2>by the mass media, and will provide a more intimate

892
00:54:45.800 --> 00:54:48.840
<v Speaker 2>understanding of the lives of the children involved.

893
00:54:49.639 --> 00:54:54.280
<v Speaker 1>There is big business morgan ice crime. It's sophisticated. It's

894
00:54:54.320 --> 00:55:02.639
<v Speaker 1>closely attached to the major financial, commercial, industrial, educational institutions

895
00:55:02.639 --> 00:55:06.400
<v Speaker 1>of our society. It's run by the same people who

896
00:55:06.519 --> 00:55:09.679
<v Speaker 1>run those. It's frequented by the same people who occupy

897
00:55:09.800 --> 00:55:15.840
<v Speaker 1>management positions in those. It's not the mafia. It's an

898
00:55:15.880 --> 00:55:21.119
<v Speaker 1>adjunct of clean business. It's serving the most respectable people

899
00:55:21.159 --> 00:55:35.840
<v Speaker 1>we have in our society, the people who are the elite.

900
00:55:36.559 --> 00:55:39.480
<v Speaker 2>In our previous program, the first section of this two

901
00:55:39.480 --> 00:55:43.719
<v Speaker 2>part series on boys for Sale, the widespread use and

902
00:55:43.760 --> 00:55:49.760
<v Speaker 2>abuse of youths for the gratification of various men around

903
00:55:49.760 --> 00:55:53.679
<v Speaker 2>the country, we talked about the general nature, who's involved,

904
00:55:53.760 --> 00:55:56.199
<v Speaker 2>what kids, where they come from, how they got involved

905
00:55:56.199 --> 00:56:00.599
<v Speaker 2>in it, the nature of the men themselves, the ages,

906
00:56:00.719 --> 00:56:05.039
<v Speaker 2>the fact that they come from the highest the socio

907
00:56:05.039 --> 00:56:11.840
<v Speaker 2>and economic and political stratum of American society, the fact

908
00:56:11.840 --> 00:56:15.639
<v Speaker 2>that this is a very widespread thing and that it

909
00:56:15.719 --> 00:56:20.119
<v Speaker 2>is hushed up generally, and it's extremely violent. Kids are killed,

910
00:56:20.320 --> 00:56:22.880
<v Speaker 2>Many kids are killed and tortured every year as well

911
00:56:22.920 --> 00:56:28.599
<v Speaker 2>as abused. Tom Philpott is still with US History Professor

912
00:56:28.719 --> 00:56:32.800
<v Speaker 2>University of Texas. Mark McKinnon, form editor of The Daily Texan.

913
00:56:33.840 --> 00:56:38.519
<v Speaker 2>But before we get into tonight's program further, we will

914
00:56:38.599 --> 00:56:42.039
<v Speaker 2>review some of the most important points of the first

915
00:56:42.119 --> 00:56:45.360
<v Speaker 2>section of Boys for Sale for people who may not

916
00:56:45.400 --> 00:56:46.760
<v Speaker 2>have seen the first program.

917
00:56:47.679 --> 00:56:51.480
<v Speaker 8>Investigations in other cities have shown that boys thirteen, fourteen,

918
00:56:51.639 --> 00:56:55.960
<v Speaker 8>even younger are coerced into prostitution with threats of physical violence,

919
00:56:56.239 --> 00:56:59.440
<v Speaker 8>and are sometimes shipped across state lines shipped to the

920
00:56:59.440 --> 00:57:03.239
<v Speaker 8>older adult men who desire young boys for sexual acts.

921
00:57:03.559 --> 00:57:06.960
<v Speaker 8>Occasionally these boys episodes were their older clients ends in

922
00:57:07.079 --> 00:57:10.400
<v Speaker 8>physical violence. There are men who seek young boys to

923
00:57:10.400 --> 00:57:12.719
<v Speaker 8>torture and sometimes to kill.

924
00:57:13.039 --> 00:57:18.920
<v Speaker 1>The President's Commission on Obscenity found This is the commission

925
00:57:18.960 --> 00:57:25.519
<v Speaker 1>that Richard Nixon repudiated. It mentioned in passing that child

926
00:57:25.599 --> 00:57:29.559
<v Speaker 1>pornography was a phenomenon of the abuse of children, and

927
00:57:29.599 --> 00:57:32.639
<v Speaker 1>then went on to say that for every female prostitute

928
00:57:32.639 --> 00:57:34.639
<v Speaker 1>of any age. In the United States, there are nine

929
00:57:34.760 --> 00:57:38.519
<v Speaker 1>boys underage who are prostitutes. And there was a callboy

930
00:57:38.639 --> 00:57:42.480
<v Speaker 1>ring operated out of New York City which had phone

931
00:57:42.480 --> 00:57:47.519
<v Speaker 1>hook ups with Houston, Atlanta, Los Angeles, New Orleans, Washington,

932
00:57:47.599 --> 00:57:51.800
<v Speaker 1>d C. And that callboy ring had a list of

933
00:57:51.880 --> 00:57:55.840
<v Speaker 1>ten thousand clients who could call and with a credit

934
00:57:55.840 --> 00:57:58.000
<v Speaker 1>card purchase a boy. Hello.

935
00:57:58.599 --> 00:58:02.840
<v Speaker 12>Hello, this is credit card number six, seven, eight nine.

936
00:58:03.199 --> 00:58:06.840
<v Speaker 12>I'd like to make an order. Please go ahead. I'm

937
00:58:06.840 --> 00:58:11.400
<v Speaker 12>looking for young male, blonde hair, blue eyes, body hair

938
00:58:11.480 --> 00:58:13.360
<v Speaker 12>or nobody here, thick body hair?

939
00:58:13.400 --> 00:58:13.760
<v Speaker 5>Please?

940
00:58:13.920 --> 00:58:20.400
<v Speaker 1>What age ten to twelve? Butch or fem butch?

941
00:58:20.480 --> 00:58:20.800
<v Speaker 5>Please?

942
00:58:21.880 --> 00:58:23.079
<v Speaker 1>What is your address?

943
00:58:23.519 --> 00:58:26.440
<v Speaker 12>I'm at the Houston Marriott Hotel, Room three thirteen.

944
00:58:27.519 --> 00:58:29.760
<v Speaker 1>Wire me two hundred dollars now by a credit card

945
00:58:29.800 --> 00:58:31.679
<v Speaker 1>and you have one hundred dollars in cash for the boy.

946
00:58:31.760 --> 00:58:34.039
<v Speaker 1>He'll be there in thirty minutes. Thank you, Thank you.

947
00:58:35.119 --> 00:58:40.119
<v Speaker 1>In Houston. I give the figure based on I think

948
00:58:40.519 --> 00:58:43.880
<v Speaker 1>prudent calculations. Upwards of three hundred and fifty boys a

949
00:58:43.960 --> 00:58:48.519
<v Speaker 1>year are killed deliberately. Because of this, many more die

950
00:58:48.840 --> 00:58:54.880
<v Speaker 1>of drug overuse, male nutrition, of suicide. The national toll

951
00:58:55.119 --> 00:59:00.960
<v Speaker 1>per year is in the thousands. Every year, kids violently

952
00:59:01.000 --> 00:59:04.840
<v Speaker 1>because of this, and to the best of my knowledge,

953
00:59:05.079 --> 00:59:11.400
<v Speaker 1>most men who seek sex from boys are not homosexuals

954
00:59:12.320 --> 00:59:15.760
<v Speaker 1>to the extent that they have active sex lives at

955
00:59:15.760 --> 00:59:19.880
<v Speaker 1>the peer level. They are heterosexual. Many of them have

956
00:59:20.000 --> 00:59:25.000
<v Speaker 1>no peer sex at all. There are gay people who

957
00:59:25.039 --> 00:59:28.559
<v Speaker 1>are what we call pederis, that is, men who lust

958
00:59:28.639 --> 00:59:32.320
<v Speaker 1>after children, especially boys, But it appears to be the

959
00:59:32.360 --> 00:59:37.119
<v Speaker 1>case that most such men are not gay. That their

960
00:59:39.039 --> 00:59:45.679
<v Speaker 1>attraction is for young, defenseless children, especially boys, because they're

961
00:59:45.679 --> 00:59:51.239
<v Speaker 1>more exotic and more forbidden. But it is not a

962
00:59:51.280 --> 00:59:58.760
<v Speaker 1>matter of gay rights as advocated by practically anybody. This

963
00:59:58.840 --> 01:00:03.440
<v Speaker 1>is a a much different sort of phenomenon. The reason

964
01:00:03.519 --> 01:00:09.800
<v Speaker 1>that the gay community usually scorns any investigation of the

965
01:00:09.840 --> 01:00:14.119
<v Speaker 1>subject is that they know that the average person in

966
01:00:14.159 --> 01:00:18.519
<v Speaker 1>the public will blame homosexuals and homosexuality for the phenomenon,

967
01:00:18.800 --> 01:00:20.800
<v Speaker 1>regardless of what facts are presented.

968
01:00:21.119 --> 01:00:24.440
<v Speaker 12>Kind of individuals involved are down the line almost in

969
01:00:24.480 --> 01:00:27.719
<v Speaker 12>every instance in the cases I've investigated, men who are

970
01:00:27.800 --> 01:00:32.360
<v Speaker 12>very powerful, usually very wealthy, and usually administrate control over

971
01:00:32.360 --> 01:00:33.400
<v Speaker 12>a large number of people.

972
01:00:33.760 --> 01:00:36.239
<v Speaker 13>Sixteen year old boy came to us telling how he'd

973
01:00:36.280 --> 01:00:38.960
<v Speaker 13>started as a prostitute at age twelve and now is

974
01:00:39.000 --> 01:00:43.400
<v Speaker 13>employed by a large Houston corporation. The corporation pays him

975
01:00:43.400 --> 01:00:45.199
<v Speaker 13>from a well covered slush fund.

976
01:00:45.920 --> 01:00:49.679
<v Speaker 17>I'm working right now. You know, look just you know

977
01:00:49.760 --> 01:00:53.079
<v Speaker 17>with the corporation and wat's that.

978
01:00:53.199 --> 01:00:53.840
<v Speaker 3>How does that work?

979
01:00:54.440 --> 01:01:00.440
<v Speaker 17>Well, when they're executives are in their business, people are

980
01:01:00.440 --> 01:01:06.159
<v Speaker 17>in town, they're sent to our apartment and we entertain

981
01:01:06.280 --> 01:01:07.360
<v Speaker 17>them while they're here.

982
01:01:08.199 --> 01:01:10.280
<v Speaker 3>Okay, what's that entertainment usually involved?

983
01:01:10.320 --> 01:01:11.880
<v Speaker 5>What do they usually demand or what.

984
01:01:11.840 --> 01:01:12.360
<v Speaker 16>Do they want?

985
01:01:12.960 --> 01:01:16.199
<v Speaker 17>Well, it's all kinds of sex and perversions. There's no

986
01:01:16.320 --> 01:01:17.840
<v Speaker 17>two like. I've decided that.

987
01:01:19.039 --> 01:01:23.039
<v Speaker 2>Subsequent to the making of this interview, this boy's mutilated

988
01:01:23.079 --> 01:01:24.840
<v Speaker 2>body was found.

989
01:01:25.320 --> 01:01:32.920
<v Speaker 1>It's closely attached to the major financial, commercial, industrial, educational

990
01:01:32.960 --> 01:01:37.480
<v Speaker 1>institutions of our society. It's run by the same people

991
01:01:37.519 --> 01:01:40.440
<v Speaker 1>who run those. It's frequented by the same people who

992
01:01:40.480 --> 01:01:45.320
<v Speaker 1>occupy management positions in those. It's not the mafia, it's

993
01:01:46.800 --> 01:01:50.880
<v Speaker 1>it's an adjunct of clean business. It's serving the most

994
01:01:50.920 --> 01:01:55.119
<v Speaker 1>respectable people we have in our society, the people who

995
01:01:55.400 --> 01:01:56.079
<v Speaker 1>are the elite.

996
01:01:56.480 --> 01:01:59.039
<v Speaker 13>A Texas House committee has been charged with looking at

997
01:01:59.039 --> 01:02:02.119
<v Speaker 13>the problem. To public hearings later, the committee has been

998
01:02:02.199 --> 01:02:05.840
<v Speaker 13>unable to make any serious progress. Its budget was slashed

999
01:02:05.920 --> 01:02:09.320
<v Speaker 13>from eighty thousand to fifteen thousand dollars, hardly enough to

1000
01:02:09.360 --> 01:02:12.400
<v Speaker 13>do an honest pro and the committee chairman admits to

1001
01:02:12.519 --> 01:02:15.039
<v Speaker 13>knowing of the problem in Houston, but says he's been

1002
01:02:15.039 --> 01:02:16.079
<v Speaker 13>told to back off.

1003
01:02:16.440 --> 01:02:19.480
<v Speaker 18>When we started this committee, we asked for money to

1004
01:02:19.519 --> 01:02:23.679
<v Speaker 18>do an adequate investigation to determine just how serious.

1005
01:02:23.320 --> 01:02:25.519
<v Speaker 16>The problem of child pornography, child.

1006
01:02:25.280 --> 01:02:29.599
<v Speaker 18>Prostitution, sexual exploitation is here in Texas, which I think

1007
01:02:29.920 --> 01:02:34.480
<v Speaker 18>is a proper thing for this committee to do. Now,

1008
01:02:34.559 --> 01:02:37.119
<v Speaker 18>that was the first indication that we had pressure on it's.

1009
01:02:37.119 --> 01:02:39.599
<v Speaker 18>The second indication was when I appeared before the House

1010
01:02:39.920 --> 01:02:44.400
<v Speaker 18>Administration Committee when they chopped our budget, and subsequent conversations

1011
01:02:44.440 --> 01:02:48.199
<v Speaker 18>with certain members that said we have got to stop

1012
01:02:48.239 --> 01:02:49.000
<v Speaker 18>our investigation.

1013
01:02:49.079 --> 01:02:50.199
<v Speaker 5>Hey, do they want you to stop?

1014
01:02:50.519 --> 01:02:51.199
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why.

1015
01:02:51.920 --> 01:02:53.639
<v Speaker 5>I have no plan to find out.

1016
01:02:53.719 --> 01:02:54.719
<v Speaker 1>I plan to find out.

1017
01:02:54.719 --> 01:02:57.199
<v Speaker 18>I think it's serious that they were getting this kind

1018
01:02:57.199 --> 01:02:57.679
<v Speaker 18>of pressure.

1019
01:02:59.360 --> 01:03:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Let's continue you talking about this situation. You have a

1020
01:03:04.039 --> 01:03:10.960
<v Speaker 2>story here which kind of is good for several aspects

1021
01:03:11.079 --> 01:03:14.159
<v Speaker 2>of who's involved, what happens to them, and what doesn't

1022
01:03:14.159 --> 01:03:14.719
<v Speaker 2>happen to them.

1023
01:03:14.920 --> 01:03:20.320
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I'll read a wire's service release which came out

1024
01:03:20.360 --> 01:03:25.559
<v Speaker 1>of Dallas, and which said at the top, broadcaster's note

1025
01:03:25.639 --> 01:03:30.480
<v Speaker 1>nature and repeated broadcasters note nature and also said note

1026
01:03:30.599 --> 01:03:35.440
<v Speaker 1>discretionary material. Here's the copy. A thirty year state Human

1027
01:03:35.480 --> 01:03:39.119
<v Speaker 1>Resources Department employee has been arrested in Dallas and charges

1028
01:03:39.159 --> 01:03:44.039
<v Speaker 1>of sexually abusing a child. The Department human Resources officials

1029
01:03:44.039 --> 01:03:47.239
<v Speaker 1>say fifty five year old Howard Ray Parker was suspended

1030
01:03:47.320 --> 01:03:51.960
<v Speaker 1>yesterday from his job as medical Services programs director at Statewide.

1031
01:03:52.760 --> 01:03:55.039
<v Speaker 1>Police say they found two to three hundred pictures of

1032
01:03:55.119 --> 01:03:59.000
<v Speaker 1>nude boys in Parker's home. Officers say a sixteen year

1033
01:03:59.000 --> 01:04:01.599
<v Speaker 1>old runaway boy alleged Parker had sex with him while

1034
01:04:01.639 --> 01:04:05.119
<v Speaker 1>he lived with Parker. A spokesman for the Department of

1035
01:04:05.159 --> 01:04:07.719
<v Speaker 1>Human Resources in Dallas says the thirty year veteran employee

1036
01:04:07.760 --> 01:04:11.320
<v Speaker 1>charged on sex offenses has been suspended without pay. It

1037
01:04:11.360 --> 01:04:15.800
<v Speaker 1>goes on to say that this is routine procedure. Repeats

1038
01:04:15.840 --> 01:04:18.039
<v Speaker 1>that he's charged with the abuse of a child he

1039
01:04:18.199 --> 01:04:21.079
<v Speaker 1>picked up on the street as the kid was hitchhiking.

1040
01:04:24.239 --> 01:04:27.599
<v Speaker 1>Says that the boy alleges that Parker kept him in

1041
01:04:27.639 --> 01:04:31.719
<v Speaker 1>that apartment of his for a month and that Parker

1042
01:04:31.719 --> 01:04:36.000
<v Speaker 1>repeatedly attacked him during that time. Police say a search

1043
01:04:36.000 --> 01:04:38.320
<v Speaker 1>of Parker's house and covered two to three hundred photographs

1044
01:04:38.360 --> 01:04:40.559
<v Speaker 1>of boys in various states of attire, and many showed

1045
01:04:40.559 --> 01:04:43.960
<v Speaker 1>them engaging in sex. Now it happens to be the

1046
01:04:44.000 --> 01:04:46.199
<v Speaker 1>case that those boys were charges of the Department of

1047
01:04:46.280 --> 01:04:51.119
<v Speaker 1>Human Resources. And here's what happened in the case. Mister

1048
01:04:51.159 --> 01:04:55.159
<v Speaker 1>Parker went under the care of a psychiatrists. The psychiatrist

1049
01:04:55.159 --> 01:05:00.400
<v Speaker 1>said that prosecution would be damaging to mister Parker and

1050
01:05:00.880 --> 01:05:05.280
<v Speaker 1>prevent his recovery. The judge took that into consideration the

1051
01:05:05.280 --> 01:05:09.880
<v Speaker 1>pre trial hearing and let him go, and the state

1052
01:05:09.920 --> 01:05:12.719
<v Speaker 1>of Texas paid for his psychiatric care and they returned

1053
01:05:12.760 --> 01:05:15.199
<v Speaker 1>him to the job. After his rehabilitation, he went back

1054
01:05:15.239 --> 01:05:16.519
<v Speaker 1>to work. He went back to work.

1055
01:05:16.559 --> 01:05:21.559
<v Speaker 2>What about the kids, Did they do anything to rehabilitate them.

1056
01:05:20.840 --> 01:05:23.400
<v Speaker 1>Whatever they were supposed to be doing in the first place.

1057
01:05:24.119 --> 01:05:27.719
<v Speaker 2>Let's take a look at the children involved and their lives.

1058
01:05:28.920 --> 01:05:33.360
<v Speaker 2>Robin Lloyd, author For Money or Love, the definitive book

1059
01:05:33.480 --> 01:05:35.960
<v Speaker 2>on boy prostitution in America.

1060
01:05:36.440 --> 01:05:40.480
<v Speaker 19>I think that it's been described as a national national horror.

1061
01:05:40.559 --> 01:05:41.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it's a national horror.

1062
01:05:41.840 --> 01:05:43.280
<v Speaker 2>I think it's a national tragedy.

1063
01:05:43.559 --> 01:05:46.000
<v Speaker 19>I findings are that the boys that get into this,

1064
01:05:48.360 --> 01:05:50.400
<v Speaker 19>as described in the title of the book, for money

1065
01:05:50.480 --> 01:05:53.280
<v Speaker 19>or Love, they're not really in it for the money.

1066
01:05:53.760 --> 01:05:56.000
<v Speaker 19>I think that they're in it for what they perceived

1067
01:05:56.119 --> 01:05:59.320
<v Speaker 19>to be adult attention or adult affection.

1068
01:06:01.679 --> 01:06:03.199
<v Speaker 1>That's where it becomes a tragedy.

1069
01:06:03.280 --> 01:06:05.679
<v Speaker 19>If you take a twelve year old boy who comes

1070
01:06:05.679 --> 01:06:10.800
<v Speaker 19>into a strange town, he's broke, he's cold, he doesn't

1071
01:06:10.800 --> 01:06:14.119
<v Speaker 19>have anything, he's hungry, and then the other street boys

1072
01:06:14.199 --> 01:06:16.400
<v Speaker 19>will tell him, hey, you know, you've got something you

1073
01:06:16.480 --> 01:06:20.519
<v Speaker 19>can sell, and he finds he has this marketable commodity

1074
01:06:20.559 --> 01:06:24.960
<v Speaker 19>I mentioned earlier. So now he goes to the apartment

1075
01:06:24.960 --> 01:06:25.920
<v Speaker 19>with a strange man.

1076
01:06:27.119 --> 01:06:28.199
<v Speaker 16>They go to bed together.

1077
01:06:30.320 --> 01:06:31.960
<v Speaker 19>The next day he's out on the street and he's

1078
01:06:32.000 --> 01:06:36.079
<v Speaker 19>looking for now the same kind of protection that same night.

1079
01:06:36.400 --> 01:06:39.000
<v Speaker 5>Their life is sad. It's one hundred percent sad.

1080
01:06:39.000 --> 01:06:41.079
<v Speaker 6>They get up, you know, one or two or three

1081
01:06:41.159 --> 01:06:43.280
<v Speaker 6>during the day and they go out and they have

1082
01:06:43.360 --> 01:06:47.199
<v Speaker 6>to earn money, and they're treated bad. They eat only

1083
01:06:47.239 --> 01:06:50.679
<v Speaker 6>when they're bad by somebody else, and they never get

1084
01:06:50.679 --> 01:06:53.519
<v Speaker 6>anything for anything. They always have to return sexual favors

1085
01:06:53.559 --> 01:06:56.239
<v Speaker 6>for it. They sometimes get beaten, they get robbed, they

1086
01:06:56.239 --> 01:06:58.519
<v Speaker 6>get pushed, you know, the police abuse them.

1087
01:06:58.559 --> 01:07:01.400
<v Speaker 5>Everybody abuses them of the money.

1088
01:07:01.880 --> 01:07:07.599
<v Speaker 7>Job, stay with somebody out paying bad.

1089
01:07:09.960 --> 01:07:10.920
<v Speaker 9>People. So deep.

1090
01:07:12.719 --> 01:07:15.079
<v Speaker 7>Not buy some shoes or some stops, whatever I.

1091
01:07:15.039 --> 01:07:16.920
<v Speaker 2>Need unless you get to get them for trick.

1092
01:07:17.119 --> 01:07:18.639
<v Speaker 16>You have to be able to make some bugs.

1093
01:07:19.239 --> 01:07:23.679
<v Speaker 7>We get more than five dollars, can you some money?

1094
01:07:23.719 --> 01:07:29.880
<v Speaker 7>But when we need a fair for days of so I.

1095
01:07:29.800 --> 01:07:30.440
<v Speaker 3>Can make money.

1096
01:07:30.480 --> 01:07:33.360
<v Speaker 5>Man, No way you can make money.

1097
01:07:35.440 --> 01:07:36.079
<v Speaker 3>Around these days.

1098
01:07:36.119 --> 01:07:38.519
<v Speaker 7>People want to take them all I can't get you

1099
01:07:39.360 --> 01:07:40.159
<v Speaker 7>walk away the job.

1100
01:07:41.519 --> 01:07:43.199
<v Speaker 20>Most of the kids don't want to be where they are.

1101
01:07:43.280 --> 01:07:46.519
<v Speaker 20>They don't want to engage in this lifestyle. And if

1102
01:07:46.519 --> 01:07:48.719
<v Speaker 20>you give them help, an awful lot of them, a

1103
01:07:48.880 --> 01:07:51.400
<v Speaker 20>very high percentage of them are quite anxious either to

1104
01:07:51.440 --> 01:07:54.119
<v Speaker 20>go home or to get a job and go back

1105
01:07:54.119 --> 01:07:56.400
<v Speaker 20>to school, to live a normal, happy life. They are

1106
01:07:56.480 --> 01:08:00.320
<v Speaker 20>not into this really rotten thing because they like it.

1107
01:08:00.719 --> 01:08:03.840
<v Speaker 20>If they stay in it long enough, they develop attitudes

1108
01:08:04.679 --> 01:08:07.679
<v Speaker 20>that make it very difficult for them to do anything else.

1109
01:08:08.280 --> 01:08:10.599
<v Speaker 20>If you work here in our center and you do

1110
01:08:10.719 --> 01:08:12.320
<v Speaker 20>not develop a bad memory.

1111
01:08:12.519 --> 01:08:13.679
<v Speaker 1>You don't work there very long.

1112
01:08:14.440 --> 01:08:17.279
<v Speaker 20>The tragedies, the violence.

1113
01:08:16.880 --> 01:08:22.840
<v Speaker 21>The the the fact that some of the kids that

1114
01:08:22.960 --> 01:08:29.880
<v Speaker 21>come into us, they're killed because they cannot escape the.

1115
01:08:28.239 --> 01:08:32.439
<v Speaker 20>The exploitation is a very hard thing, is there. Our

1116
01:08:32.479 --> 01:08:34.359
<v Speaker 20>staff does not really last very long here.

1117
01:08:35.079 --> 01:08:36.119
<v Speaker 7>Who's running.

1204
01:12:01.560 --> 01:12:04.600
<v Speaker 11>I when I turned thirteen, I just, you know, packed

1205
01:12:04.640 --> 01:12:06.399
<v Speaker 11>up my bags a truck on what do.

1206
01:12:06.319 --> 01:12:08.640
<v Speaker 5>Your parents think you're doing? What your mother think you're doing?

1207
01:12:08.640 --> 01:12:08.680
<v Speaker 21>That?

1208
01:12:10.119 --> 01:12:11.880
<v Speaker 9>I don't know what they think. I haven't written him

1209
01:12:11.880 --> 01:12:16.239
<v Speaker 9>a letter since year before last.

1210
01:12:16.560 --> 01:12:17.319
<v Speaker 5>They don't care, you know.

1211
01:12:18.439 --> 01:12:21.840
<v Speaker 13>No, This boy was partially a victim of poverty. On

1212
01:12:21.880 --> 01:12:25.399
<v Speaker 13>the streets, though you find boys from veried backgrounds. One

1213
01:12:25.520 --> 01:12:27.760
<v Speaker 13>fifteen year old from a wealthy family and tells of

1214
01:12:27.800 --> 01:12:30.960
<v Speaker 13>being cast out because he was failing in school. His

1215
01:12:31.079 --> 01:12:34.600
<v Speaker 13>parents are divorced. Either his father nor his mother wants.

1216
01:12:34.399 --> 01:12:35.119
<v Speaker 3>To care for him.

1217
01:12:35.520 --> 01:12:37.920
<v Speaker 13>He started out as a prostitute when he was twelve.

1218
01:12:38.000 --> 01:12:41.600
<v Speaker 9>You gotta keep using his Yeah, I mean, you know

1219
01:12:41.640 --> 01:12:43.359
<v Speaker 9>it was a fifteen year old going to get a job.

1220
01:12:45.079 --> 01:12:48.760
<v Speaker 5>Isn't too likely? What do you think about what you do?

1221
01:12:49.039 --> 01:12:50.159
<v Speaker 5>Pro No?

1222
01:12:51.439 --> 01:12:54.960
<v Speaker 9>I think disgusting before you know.

1223
01:12:56.000 --> 01:12:58.119
<v Speaker 5>Right when through something was disgusting and.

1224
01:13:00.199 --> 01:13:00.520
<v Speaker 1>Sleep.

1225
01:13:01.359 --> 01:13:02.479
<v Speaker 9>The worst I could do is kill me.

1226
01:13:03.159 --> 01:13:06.479
<v Speaker 5>Well that's pretty bad. Yeah, I mean, aren't you worried

1227
01:13:06.520 --> 01:13:08.239
<v Speaker 5>about that? Don't you value you're living?

1228
01:13:09.479 --> 01:13:09.520
<v Speaker 17>No?

1229
01:13:09.680 --> 01:13:11.479
<v Speaker 5>Right now, I don't know value your life?

1230
01:13:14.479 --> 01:13:15.000
<v Speaker 9>Not really.

1231
01:13:15.279 --> 01:13:16.279
<v Speaker 5>You don't want to stay alive.

1232
01:13:16.359 --> 01:13:18.560
<v Speaker 11>I mean I want to stay alive in all but

1233
01:13:18.600 --> 01:13:22.600
<v Speaker 11>you know, I find I what I mean, it can't

1234
01:13:22.600 --> 01:13:26.119
<v Speaker 11>be much for it? I mean, is it that bad

1235
01:13:26.159 --> 01:13:26.479
<v Speaker 11>out there?

1236
01:13:26.479 --> 01:13:28.279
<v Speaker 5>Don't you? Did you look forward to the day when

1237
01:13:28.279 --> 01:13:29.520
<v Speaker 5>you get a good job?

1238
01:13:30.840 --> 01:13:33.359
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, that's all I can do is look forward, you know,

1239
01:13:33.880 --> 01:13:35.079
<v Speaker 9>live each day as it comes.

1240
01:13:35.600 --> 01:13:36.840
<v Speaker 5>So you're really not happier.

1241
01:13:39.520 --> 01:13:41.600
<v Speaker 9>No, I'm much rather be at home.

1242
01:13:41.680 --> 01:13:41.880
<v Speaker 8>You know.

1243
01:13:42.079 --> 01:13:44.319
<v Speaker 2>Well, down in Houston they have streets where they hustle,

1244
01:13:44.359 --> 01:13:46.000
<v Speaker 2>which you don't find in some other cities.

1245
01:13:46.079 --> 01:13:46.920
<v Speaker 1>Right, that's right?

1246
01:13:47.680 --> 01:13:49.760
<v Speaker 2>What kind of now this is? Apparently these are the

1247
01:13:49.880 --> 01:13:53.279
<v Speaker 2>entrepreneurs as the DC guy talked about, right.

1248
01:13:53.199 --> 01:13:57.439
<v Speaker 1>These are cold little kids looking for money to buy

1249
01:13:57.520 --> 01:14:00.600
<v Speaker 1>some food, money to get a room, hope, with some

1250
01:14:00.640 --> 01:14:08.840
<v Speaker 1>privacy with somebody. If they can't get any privacy to

1251
01:14:08.920 --> 01:14:14.880
<v Speaker 1>put it in. The blood is terms. At two in

1252
01:14:14.920 --> 01:14:18.920
<v Speaker 1>the morning, when the bars close, the boys who've had

1253
01:14:18.960 --> 01:14:22.119
<v Speaker 1>only one customer that night and need more money, or

1254
01:14:22.199 --> 01:14:25.960
<v Speaker 1>haven't had any customers at all, start bidding against each

1255
01:14:26.000 --> 01:14:29.479
<v Speaker 1>other for the favors of whatever pederists are patrolling in

1256
01:14:29.520 --> 01:14:29.920
<v Speaker 1>the street.

1257
01:14:30.199 --> 01:14:31.479
<v Speaker 3>You've actually observed it.

1258
01:14:31.399 --> 01:14:35.479
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Yes, that's at two o'clock. It lasts for about

1259
01:14:35.479 --> 01:14:38.199
<v Speaker 1>an hour, a little longer, and then some kids are left,

1260
01:14:38.680 --> 01:14:41.079
<v Speaker 1>and many of them have nowhere to go. They might

1261
01:14:41.119 --> 01:14:43.119
<v Speaker 1>have what they call a trick pad that they can

1262
01:14:43.199 --> 01:14:45.359
<v Speaker 1>go to, and I hope they get the twenty five

1263
01:14:45.399 --> 01:14:48.479
<v Speaker 1>bucks to pay the rent there the next day. I've

1264
01:14:48.479 --> 01:14:52.079
<v Speaker 1>seen them climb under cars to get shelter and warmth

1265
01:14:52.920 --> 01:14:56.119
<v Speaker 1>to Yes, at four in the morning on this one

1266
01:14:56.199 --> 01:14:58.359
<v Speaker 1>night in November when it was cold and the boys

1267
01:14:58.399 --> 01:15:01.199
<v Speaker 1>had t shirts on that jacket and they didn't have jackets.

1268
01:15:01.399 --> 01:15:04.840
<v Speaker 3>Here mostly destitute where you might say street people.

1269
01:15:05.159 --> 01:15:07.359
<v Speaker 1>Well, they might come from well to do homes, Doug,

1270
01:15:07.399 --> 01:15:10.439
<v Speaker 1>but when they're gone for a few months, they are

1271
01:15:10.479 --> 01:15:14.359
<v Speaker 1>now poor. A rough count that I made was that

1272
01:15:14.399 --> 01:15:18.920
<v Speaker 1>there were four hundred kids in an area of half

1273
01:15:18.960 --> 01:15:22.960
<v Speaker 1>a square mile is let me finish the story. The

1274
01:15:23.000 --> 01:15:27.159
<v Speaker 1>police then came and rounded them up in vans, and

1275
01:15:27.199 --> 01:15:29.439
<v Speaker 1>I heard over police radio that their count was that

1276
01:15:29.439 --> 01:15:31.560
<v Speaker 1>there were four hundred kids, and they drove them to

1277
01:15:31.600 --> 01:15:34.279
<v Speaker 1>a suburb of Houston called Pasadena and let them out.

1278
01:15:35.119 --> 01:15:35.840
<v Speaker 2>Why did they do that.

1279
01:15:36.720 --> 01:15:39.720
<v Speaker 1>They did it because if they formally arrested them, they

1280
01:15:39.720 --> 01:15:41.600
<v Speaker 1>would have had to book them and put them someplace,

1281
01:15:41.640 --> 01:15:43.560
<v Speaker 1>and they had no room for them. If they had

1282
01:15:43.640 --> 01:15:45.800
<v Speaker 1>room for them, they couldn't have protected them from other

1283
01:15:45.880 --> 01:15:49.439
<v Speaker 1>people in the jails. They didn't have the heart to

1284
01:15:49.600 --> 01:15:53.520
<v Speaker 1>arrest them. Technically, they arrested them by taking them into custody,

1285
01:15:53.520 --> 01:15:55.640
<v Speaker 1>but they didn't have the heart to do anymore. They

1286
01:15:55.640 --> 01:15:57.680
<v Speaker 1>wanted to clean up the street because this was the

1287
01:15:57.680 --> 01:16:01.479
<v Speaker 1>week before the national election in nineteen eight. They had

1288
01:16:01.479 --> 01:16:04.720
<v Speaker 1>no place to find shelter for them because there were

1289
01:16:04.760 --> 01:16:06.680
<v Speaker 1>only forty two beds in the whole city, and some

1290
01:16:06.720 --> 01:16:09.439
<v Speaker 1>of those were questionable as to their safety for the boys,

1291
01:16:10.159 --> 01:16:11.760
<v Speaker 1>so they took them for a ride and let them out.

1292
01:16:11.800 --> 01:16:13.239
<v Speaker 1>They didn't have anything else to do.

1293
01:16:13.880 --> 01:16:16.159
<v Speaker 2>Tom Is race a factor here, and if so, in

1294
01:16:16.319 --> 01:16:17.960
<v Speaker 2>what degree, what extent?

1295
01:16:19.000 --> 01:16:24.920
<v Speaker 1>It's a factor in a surprising way, Frank, We've already

1296
01:16:24.960 --> 01:16:29.520
<v Speaker 1>mentioned that, maybe not emphatically enough, that these kids are poor.

1297
01:16:31.000 --> 01:16:33.279
<v Speaker 1>Once they're out on the street. Even if they come

1298
01:16:33.319 --> 01:16:37.520
<v Speaker 1>from middle class families, they become poor. But overwhelmingly the

1299
01:16:37.600 --> 01:16:42.640
<v Speaker 1>runaway kids are from poor families, from struggling families. You

1300
01:16:42.680 --> 01:16:45.680
<v Speaker 1>would assume then that they would be heavily minority kids.

1301
01:16:45.840 --> 01:16:51.079
<v Speaker 1>This isn't the case. Overwhelmingly the kids who are throwaways,

1302
01:16:51.439 --> 01:16:55.399
<v Speaker 1>runaways who hit the streets and work in the life,

1303
01:16:56.359 --> 01:16:59.920
<v Speaker 1>are white. Part of the reason is that the mark

1304
01:17:00.439 --> 01:17:05.399
<v Speaker 1>among the well to do men four boys is a

1305
01:17:05.439 --> 01:17:08.960
<v Speaker 1>white market. The men want white kids. They don't want Chicanos.

1306
01:17:08.960 --> 01:17:12.720
<v Speaker 1>They don't want black kids. They want white kids, fair kids,

1307
01:17:13.680 --> 01:17:17.239
<v Speaker 1>Nordic looking kids, the ideal type.

1308
01:17:17.319 --> 01:17:20.800
<v Speaker 2>It's what about wealthy black or Chicano males.

1309
01:17:21.199 --> 01:17:25.640
<v Speaker 1>They also tend to prefer white kids. You can find

1310
01:17:25.960 --> 01:17:29.840
<v Speaker 1>in what's called the farm league, in the parks, on

1311
01:17:29.920 --> 01:17:35.800
<v Speaker 1>the streets, at the curbs, totally on their own, living

1312
01:17:35.880 --> 01:17:39.000
<v Speaker 1>hand the mouth, roughing it. You can find minority kids,

1313
01:17:39.439 --> 01:17:41.439
<v Speaker 1>but they have a hard time they have a hard

1314
01:17:41.439 --> 01:17:46.680
<v Speaker 1>time getting customers. Mostly they get employed in the dark. Literally,

1315
01:17:46.800 --> 01:17:51.720
<v Speaker 1>they work in the cubicles in the magazine stores where

1316
01:17:51.720 --> 01:17:55.720
<v Speaker 1>their customers won't see them. There's an ugly term called

1317
01:17:55.800 --> 01:18:01.239
<v Speaker 1>glory whole for the kind of thing that happens in

1318
01:18:01.279 --> 01:18:08.239
<v Speaker 1>the cubicles. I think the name is suggestive enough itself

1319
01:18:08.319 --> 01:18:11.199
<v Speaker 1>what it means. It means that the customer doesn't have

1320
01:18:11.279 --> 01:18:14.720
<v Speaker 1>to see the person who's servicing him, and then the

1321
01:18:14.760 --> 01:18:19.039
<v Speaker 1>person who's getting the service fantasizes that the little boy

1322
01:18:19.159 --> 01:18:21.479
<v Speaker 1>is blonde and blue eyed and white.

1323
01:18:22.199 --> 01:18:26.159
<v Speaker 2>Also Atlanta them. You were talking in the previous program

1324
01:18:26.199 --> 01:18:29.359
<v Speaker 2>about this being the situation with the Atlanta kids.

1325
01:18:29.560 --> 01:18:32.079
<v Speaker 1>Well, I think they are indications as I said that

1326
01:18:32.159 --> 01:18:35.439
<v Speaker 1>the kids there are hustlers. They are hustlers who are

1327
01:18:35.479 --> 01:18:38.359
<v Speaker 1>out working to help their families. They are not throwaways,

1328
01:18:38.359 --> 01:18:42.159
<v Speaker 1>they are not runaways. And they are in the farm circuit.

1329
01:18:42.399 --> 01:18:47.399
<v Speaker 1>They're working out of a park, they're not in the penthouses.

1330
01:18:47.479 --> 01:18:52.199
<v Speaker 1>They're not in callboy services. Black kids are out there

1331
01:18:52.239 --> 01:18:55.479
<v Speaker 1>working and they're not getting the best trade. They're getting

1332
01:18:55.479 --> 01:18:58.880
<v Speaker 1>what it's called rough trade. Men who will pay less

1333
01:18:58.920 --> 01:19:03.159
<v Speaker 1>and want more and be more likely to inflict violence

1334
01:19:03.439 --> 01:19:06.640
<v Speaker 1>as part of the price. Another thing I'd like to

1335
01:19:06.680 --> 01:19:11.159
<v Speaker 1>say here is that, on the basis of what I've

1336
01:19:11.239 --> 01:19:17.760
<v Speaker 1>learned over the last three years, I have a feeling.

1337
01:19:18.399 --> 01:19:21.159
<v Speaker 1>It's not a firm conclusion by any means, but it's

1338
01:19:21.199 --> 01:19:25.800
<v Speaker 1>a strong feeling that there's a second reason why the

1339
01:19:25.880 --> 01:19:30.720
<v Speaker 1>kids out there caught up in this are primarily white.

1340
01:19:31.159 --> 01:19:33.880
<v Speaker 1>The first reason is that the rich men want white boys.

1341
01:19:34.039 --> 01:19:37.560
<v Speaker 1>I think there's a second reason, and that is that

1342
01:19:37.760 --> 01:19:42.199
<v Speaker 1>poor struggling black families are taking better care of their

1343
01:19:42.279 --> 01:19:46.760
<v Speaker 1>kids than white families are. They're not pushing them out,

1344
01:19:47.199 --> 01:19:52.159
<v Speaker 1>The boys aren't running away, They're keeping the contact with home,

1345
01:19:52.479 --> 01:19:54.960
<v Speaker 1>even if they do have to resort to this for

1346
01:19:55.079 --> 01:19:58.520
<v Speaker 1>economic reasons. And when the families find out it's happening,

1347
01:19:59.479 --> 01:20:02.279
<v Speaker 1>they accept the kids and they love them, and they

1348
01:20:02.319 --> 01:20:05.119
<v Speaker 1>don't punish them, reject them and throw them out.

1349
01:20:05.560 --> 01:20:08.399
<v Speaker 2>What about the kids themselves, what happens to them, assuming

1350
01:20:08.439 --> 01:20:11.520
<v Speaker 2>they're ones that live, and can they get out of

1351
01:20:11.520 --> 01:20:13.520
<v Speaker 2>the life, and what happens to them when they do?

1352
01:20:13.640 --> 01:20:14.279
<v Speaker 5>What do they like?

1353
01:20:15.079 --> 01:20:18.720
<v Speaker 1>In the first place? They mostly don't survive. They mostly

1354
01:20:19.000 --> 01:20:22.479
<v Speaker 1>literally don't live to be twenty years old. As far

1355
01:20:22.560 --> 01:20:25.520
<v Speaker 1>as I know, the best information I have is that

1356
01:20:25.520 --> 01:20:31.199
<v Speaker 1>these kids die, they waste away, they kill themselves, somebody

1357
01:20:31.279 --> 01:20:35.119
<v Speaker 1>kills them, and that's it. And we're talking about over half.

1358
01:20:35.279 --> 01:20:37.840
<v Speaker 1>Over half of the kids who make their living this

1359
01:20:37.920 --> 01:20:42.800
<v Speaker 1>way for a period don't survive adolescents. They don't become adults.

1360
01:20:43.279 --> 01:20:46.239
<v Speaker 1>Those who do have a tremendously difficult time.

1361
01:20:46.800 --> 01:20:49.119
<v Speaker 19>Of course, it does damage. It does tremendous damage to

1362
01:20:49.239 --> 01:20:52.600
<v Speaker 19>self esteem. You have to grow up with a general

1363
01:20:52.640 --> 01:20:56.920
<v Speaker 19>business towards us, towards adults where you find with all

1364
01:20:57.840 --> 01:21:00.840
<v Speaker 19>these strangers now into your life, where you're literally being

1365
01:21:01.000 --> 01:21:03.680
<v Speaker 19>used to pour it over the mutilated.

1366
01:21:03.720 --> 01:21:07.399
<v Speaker 24>It's not even damage is a quiet word for the

1367
01:21:08.039 --> 01:21:11.439
<v Speaker 24>mutilation of a child spirit. We cannot take a seven

1368
01:21:11.600 --> 01:21:13.680
<v Speaker 24>or eight year old and think that seven or eight

1369
01:21:13.720 --> 01:21:16.720
<v Speaker 24>year old has the same sexual needs and drives and

1370
01:21:16.800 --> 01:21:17.800
<v Speaker 24>concepts as you were.

1371
01:21:17.880 --> 01:21:17.960
<v Speaker 3>Not.

1372
01:21:18.680 --> 01:21:22.079
<v Speaker 24>We have to realize that children see things differently, use

1373
01:21:22.239 --> 01:21:27.319
<v Speaker 24>material differently, and have different ways of integrating experience. Children

1374
01:21:27.439 --> 01:21:31.000
<v Speaker 24>cannot integrate anal sodomy at eight or nine.

1375
01:21:31.560 --> 01:21:33.560
<v Speaker 1>The fact is it's all they know how to do,

1376
01:21:33.640 --> 01:21:37.439
<v Speaker 1>it's all they're good at. I came to know very

1377
01:21:37.479 --> 01:21:47.479
<v Speaker 1>well a twenty two year old hustler masquerading as a

1378
01:21:47.520 --> 01:21:54.880
<v Speaker 1>sixteen year old for whom friends and I were able

1379
01:21:54.920 --> 01:21:59.000
<v Speaker 1>to find a job, but it wasn't a good enough

1380
01:21:59.079 --> 01:22:03.680
<v Speaker 1>job for him. He knew the risks. Over the years,

1381
01:22:03.800 --> 01:22:08.720
<v Speaker 1>he although he was white blonde, he had to do

1382
01:22:08.800 --> 01:22:12.800
<v Speaker 1>more and more and more for less and less and less,

1383
01:22:13.119 --> 01:22:14.600
<v Speaker 1>turned more and more tricks a.

1384
01:22:14.640 --> 01:22:16.119
<v Speaker 2>Day as he got older.

1385
01:22:16.319 --> 01:22:23.159
<v Speaker 1>As he got older, one of the things that I

1386
01:22:23.199 --> 01:22:26.720
<v Speaker 1>know happened to him and the last year was that

1387
01:22:26.800 --> 01:22:32.600
<v Speaker 1>he had to be subjected to penetration with bottles, and

1388
01:22:32.640 --> 01:22:34.720
<v Speaker 1>the men played the game of whether or not they'd

1389
01:22:34.760 --> 01:22:37.960
<v Speaker 1>break the bottle off in him or not and cut

1390
01:22:38.000 --> 01:22:41.960
<v Speaker 1>him that kind of thing. When he was seventeen, he

1391
01:22:41.960 --> 01:22:44.239
<v Speaker 1>didn't have to do that, and he got more money.

1392
01:22:44.960 --> 01:22:49.239
<v Speaker 1>At twenty two, he pretended he was sixteen. The man

1393
01:22:49.279 --> 01:22:53.039
<v Speaker 1>pretended he was sixteen. He got less money. He had

1394
01:22:53.079 --> 01:22:56.279
<v Speaker 1>to turn more tricks, but he didn't know what else

1395
01:22:56.319 --> 01:22:58.439
<v Speaker 1>to do. He felt it was the one thing he

1396
01:22:58.479 --> 01:23:03.800
<v Speaker 1>was good at. He also admitted to being miserable.

1397
01:23:03.960 --> 01:23:07.880
<v Speaker 3>What are some of the legal problems here? How come

1398
01:23:07.960 --> 01:23:12.199
<v Speaker 3>we one have won the organization that's exploiting these boys

1399
01:23:12.239 --> 01:23:16.680
<v Speaker 3>hasn't been uncovered, and two the men who are participating

1400
01:23:17.159 --> 01:23:20.119
<v Speaker 3>in these crimes again well, take.

1401
01:23:20.039 --> 01:23:24.439
<v Speaker 1>The boy's homes. For instance, in the case in San Antonio,

1402
01:23:24.840 --> 01:23:28.399
<v Speaker 1>which is still pending, there was an eyewitness who walked

1403
01:23:28.399 --> 01:23:31.159
<v Speaker 1>into the room of the director of the home in

1404
01:23:31.319 --> 01:23:33.560
<v Speaker 1>four in the morning because he was sure there would

1405
01:23:33.560 --> 01:23:35.600
<v Speaker 1>be a little boy in there, and there was a

1406
01:23:35.680 --> 01:23:39.680
<v Speaker 1>six year old boy in bed with this supposed priest.

1407
01:23:40.199 --> 01:23:43.119
<v Speaker 1>That eyewitness testimony that a boy was in bed with

1408
01:23:43.159 --> 01:23:46.520
<v Speaker 1>an old man doesn't do anything in the courtroom. It

1409
01:23:46.520 --> 01:23:49.279
<v Speaker 1>doesn't prove that there was sex going on. If the

1410
01:23:49.319 --> 01:23:53.319
<v Speaker 1>little boy testifies, who is going to take the word

1411
01:23:53.359 --> 01:23:55.159
<v Speaker 1>of a little boy against the word of, say, a

1412
01:23:55.199 --> 01:23:56.319
<v Speaker 1>real priest.

1413
01:23:56.319 --> 01:23:57.920
<v Speaker 16>And what little boy is going to say that a

1414
01:23:57.960 --> 01:23:59.920
<v Speaker 16>priest violated violated.

1415
01:24:00.600 --> 01:24:02.640
<v Speaker 1>It's a hard arrest to make. It's hard to get

1416
01:24:02.640 --> 01:24:06.479
<v Speaker 1>a warrant, it's hard to get an arrest, it's hard

1417
01:24:06.520 --> 01:24:08.840
<v Speaker 1>to get a conviction, and then it's hard to get

1418
01:24:08.840 --> 01:24:13.159
<v Speaker 1>a real sentence, very hard. Nobody wants to put anybody

1419
01:24:13.199 --> 01:24:16.319
<v Speaker 1>away on this kind of charge because the evidence is

1420
01:24:17.279 --> 01:24:18.479
<v Speaker 1>by its nature.

1421
01:24:19.800 --> 01:24:23.119
<v Speaker 16>Very very shaky, and very controversial as well.

1422
01:24:23.279 --> 01:24:25.520
<v Speaker 12>And that just points to another fast of this problem

1423
01:24:25.560 --> 01:24:30.640
<v Speaker 12>is that it often it's just preferentially ignored by the

1424
01:24:30.680 --> 01:24:33.039
<v Speaker 12>courts and by the police and by society because they

1425
01:24:33.119 --> 01:24:35.600
<v Speaker 12>just don't want to believe it's happening. I remember when

1426
01:24:35.600 --> 01:24:38.800
<v Speaker 12>we did our reports, we thought it significant enough because

1427
01:24:38.880 --> 01:24:41.720
<v Speaker 12>the nature of the case involved some autome personnel and

1428
01:24:42.039 --> 01:24:44.920
<v Speaker 12>citizens that we put it on the front page because

1429
01:24:44.920 --> 01:24:48.600
<v Speaker 12>I was shocked personally by it. And when we printed

1430
01:24:48.640 --> 01:24:52.960
<v Speaker 12>these stories, we just were barraged with letters from people saying, basically,

1431
01:24:54.119 --> 01:24:55.960
<v Speaker 12>I don't want to read this kind of stuff over

1432
01:24:56.000 --> 01:24:59.319
<v Speaker 12>my morning coffee. You know, even though it happened, even

1433
01:24:59.319 --> 01:25:01.720
<v Speaker 12>though we document and we'd gone out of our way

1434
01:25:01.760 --> 01:25:03.680
<v Speaker 12>to make sure that it was all backed up with fact,

1435
01:25:04.159 --> 01:25:07.880
<v Speaker 12>people just refused to want to not only to believe it,

1436
01:25:07.960 --> 01:25:09.880
<v Speaker 12>but to even believe that it happens.

1437
01:25:10.880 --> 01:25:12.039
<v Speaker 16>So that's part of the problem.

1438
01:25:12.159 --> 01:25:15.199
<v Speaker 12>Another part of the problem is, of course, we were

1439
01:25:15.239 --> 01:25:18.560
<v Speaker 12>shocked when we found out the extent and broad nature

1440
01:25:18.560 --> 01:25:23.079
<v Speaker 12>of this problem of pederascy and what all it involves.

1441
01:25:23.359 --> 01:25:26.840
<v Speaker 12>But we were truly shocked when we found out, originally

1442
01:25:26.920 --> 01:25:29.640
<v Speaker 12>initially when we started this year a few years back,

1443
01:25:30.560 --> 01:25:30.920
<v Speaker 12>that the.

1444
01:25:30.880 --> 01:25:33.600
<v Speaker 16>Police department didn't even know what pederasty was.

1445
01:25:33.680 --> 01:25:35.680
<v Speaker 12>I mean, I ran in I won't say the police department,

1446
01:25:35.720 --> 01:25:37.800
<v Speaker 12>but I know that I was dealing with one officer

1447
01:25:37.840 --> 01:25:40.800
<v Speaker 12>and Sex Crimes Division who's no longer in Sex Crimes Division.

1448
01:25:41.640 --> 01:25:44.640
<v Speaker 12>And I was trying to get through my part for

1449
01:25:45.239 --> 01:25:47.720
<v Speaker 12>truth and justice and trying to get to the root

1450
01:25:47.720 --> 01:25:49.960
<v Speaker 12>of the problem. And I said, well, tell me about

1451
01:25:50.000 --> 01:25:54.000
<v Speaker 12>your case history of pederasty, and he just went blank.

1452
01:25:54.039 --> 01:25:55.760
<v Speaker 12>He had no idea what I was talking about. Now,

1453
01:25:55.800 --> 01:25:58.479
<v Speaker 12>to their credit, I will say that the Austin Police

1454
01:25:58.520 --> 01:26:00.800
<v Speaker 12>Sex Crimes Division has come along with since then. But

1455
01:26:00.960 --> 01:26:03.560
<v Speaker 12>if the police don't know what it is, then certainly

1456
01:26:03.560 --> 01:26:05.520
<v Speaker 12>most members of society won't know what it is. So

1457
01:26:05.560 --> 01:26:08.399
<v Speaker 12>when they see it in the papers and editors don't

1458
01:26:08.399 --> 01:26:09.600
<v Speaker 12>know what it is, so they're not going to print

1459
01:26:09.600 --> 01:26:11.840
<v Speaker 12>in the first place. Book Occasionally, when it does go through,

1460
01:26:12.479 --> 01:26:15.159
<v Speaker 12>society just writes it off as an operation.

1461
01:26:16.520 --> 01:26:19.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, how are the police organize? You mentioned sex Crime Division,

1462
01:26:19.960 --> 01:26:22.159
<v Speaker 2>but they have sex Crimes is also the vice squad,

1463
01:26:22.279 --> 01:26:24.359
<v Speaker 2>So what's sex Crimes Division?

1464
01:26:24.359 --> 01:26:25.880
<v Speaker 16>Is a subset of advice.

1465
01:26:26.079 --> 01:26:28.399
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's part of homicide and almost every city

1466
01:26:29.000 --> 01:26:34.079
<v Speaker 1>it's part of homicide. Advice has to do with pornography, obscenity, prostitution,

1467
01:26:34.319 --> 01:26:37.880
<v Speaker 1>things involving consenting adults, which may be crimes that they're

1468
01:26:37.920 --> 01:26:42.720
<v Speaker 1>performed in public or commercially. A sex crime is something

1469
01:26:42.720 --> 01:26:47.159
<v Speaker 1>that involves a direct violation of the law, or involves

1470
01:26:47.199 --> 01:26:51.439
<v Speaker 1>things with kids or child pornography.

1471
01:26:52.000 --> 01:26:54.479
<v Speaker 2>Do you have a feel for, say, the budget and

1472
01:26:54.600 --> 01:26:59.000
<v Speaker 2>the number of personnel and vice squads compared to sex

1473
01:26:59.039 --> 01:27:00.840
<v Speaker 2>crime divisions.

1474
01:27:01.520 --> 01:27:04.039
<v Speaker 1>No, I really don't, frank There's something I ought to

1475
01:27:04.039 --> 01:27:06.039
<v Speaker 1>know more about the emphasis of the.

1476
01:27:05.960 --> 01:27:08.600
<v Speaker 2>City the police department places on why I do in

1477
01:27:08.640 --> 01:27:11.239
<v Speaker 2>Austin at that time Anyway, at that time they had

1478
01:27:11.279 --> 01:27:14.840
<v Speaker 2>three people in the entire sex crimes division, and they

1479
01:27:14.840 --> 01:27:17.960
<v Speaker 2>were so overworked with just you know, that's when they

1480
01:27:18.079 --> 01:27:20.000
<v Speaker 2>choke a rapist was around, what have you, And I

1481
01:27:20.000 --> 01:27:23.279
<v Speaker 2>mean that's that pretty much exhausts their time.

1482
01:27:23.359 --> 01:27:25.680
<v Speaker 12>And they were concerned about the issue. But they just said, Frankly,

1483
01:27:25.720 --> 01:27:27.800
<v Speaker 12>we were not staff. We don't have the personnel to

1484
01:27:27.840 --> 01:27:28.039
<v Speaker 12>do it.

1485
01:27:28.279 --> 01:27:31.600
<v Speaker 1>Rape is a major crime, the incidence is high, Attempted

1486
01:27:31.680 --> 01:27:35.640
<v Speaker 1>rapists common. It's extremely hard to track down rapist. These

1487
01:27:35.680 --> 01:27:39.840
<v Speaker 1>guys are working extremely hard, and then we charge them

1488
01:27:39.880 --> 01:27:44.600
<v Speaker 1>with the duty of cleaning up the streets. And in

1489
01:27:44.680 --> 01:27:48.960
<v Speaker 1>Austin the streets are clean. Houston they're not. But how

1490
01:27:49.039 --> 01:27:51.720
<v Speaker 1>can they go behind the walls and find out what's

1491
01:27:51.760 --> 01:27:54.279
<v Speaker 1>going on indoors. That's extremely hard to do.

1492
01:27:54.600 --> 01:27:59.119
<v Speaker 2>Has there been much investigation by any police or the

1493
01:27:59.279 --> 01:28:03.720
<v Speaker 2>FDI or judicial system of this phenomenon, or is it

1494
01:28:03.840 --> 01:28:06.600
<v Speaker 2>that it's a fairly recent phenomenon, or is it just

1495
01:28:06.680 --> 01:28:10.880
<v Speaker 2>something that they haven't dealt with historically or currently?

1496
01:28:10.960 --> 01:28:17.159
<v Speaker 1>They've been legislative investigations. There was a national investigation a

1497
01:28:17.199 --> 01:28:20.800
<v Speaker 1>couple of years ago looking toward the goal of national

1498
01:28:20.960 --> 01:28:25.319
<v Speaker 1>legislation to protect kids. But no, there hasn't been much.

1499
01:28:25.560 --> 01:28:27.319
<v Speaker 13>There are some who would like to tell us that

1500
01:28:27.359 --> 01:28:30.159
<v Speaker 13>the problem does not exist, But to say Houston is

1501
01:28:30.199 --> 01:28:33.199
<v Speaker 13>a major center for boy prostitution need is to overstate

1502
01:28:33.239 --> 01:28:36.399
<v Speaker 13>the case. That is what the Houston police tell us there.

1503
01:28:36.439 --> 01:28:42.319
<v Speaker 25>Again, it's not we don't have as many male prostitutes

1504
01:28:42.359 --> 01:28:45.520
<v Speaker 25>as we do female prostitutes. But when you start talking

1505
01:28:45.520 --> 01:28:50.359
<v Speaker 25>about juvenile boys fourteen, fifteen, sixteen years old, two or

1506
01:28:50.359 --> 01:28:54.199
<v Speaker 25>three cases or too many, and we do have a

1507
01:28:54.199 --> 01:28:54.960
<v Speaker 25>few of those.

1508
01:28:55.399 --> 01:28:58.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, how would you talking about that a little further?

1509
01:28:58.039 --> 01:29:01.680
<v Speaker 13>How would you define the problem of young boy prostitution

1510
01:29:01.760 --> 01:29:03.199
<v Speaker 13>in Houston as far as.

1511
01:29:04.079 --> 01:29:07.319
<v Speaker 25>The size of the problem, Well, I'm not going to

1512
01:29:07.399 --> 01:29:13.159
<v Speaker 25>say it's one of the major problems of our city. Again,

1513
01:29:13.600 --> 01:29:16.880
<v Speaker 25>we have a certain amount of it in its orientagers

1514
01:29:16.880 --> 01:29:18.520
<v Speaker 25>to try to keep the lid on it, to keep

1515
01:29:18.520 --> 01:29:19.960
<v Speaker 25>it from getting any word.

1516
01:29:20.119 --> 01:29:23.960
<v Speaker 8>Listen to Atlanta Police Sex crimes Detective Douglas McCoy, a

1517
01:29:24.039 --> 01:29:24.880
<v Speaker 8>ten year veteran.

1518
01:29:25.600 --> 01:29:30.000
<v Speaker 2>It is almost at this point, especially at this time

1519
01:29:30.039 --> 01:29:32.840
<v Speaker 2>of the year, almost an epidemic.

1520
01:29:33.199 --> 01:29:36.079
<v Speaker 8>Yet only a very few young boys are ever arrested.

1521
01:29:36.520 --> 01:29:39.239
<v Speaker 1>In nineteen seventy eight, there were seven so far.

1522
01:29:39.319 --> 01:29:43.000
<v Speaker 13>In nineteen seventy nine, we've had three male prostitution charges.

1523
01:29:43.600 --> 01:29:46.920
<v Speaker 8>The facts are the Atlanta Police Department is understaffed. Vice

1524
01:29:46.920 --> 01:29:50.920
<v Speaker 8>and sex crime detectives carry a heavy workload. Rapes, for example,

1525
01:29:50.920 --> 01:29:54.439
<v Speaker 8>are up almost one hundred percent this year. Boy prostitution

1526
01:29:54.560 --> 01:29:56.319
<v Speaker 8>is near the bottom on the priority list.

1527
01:29:56.640 --> 01:29:59.600
<v Speaker 13>Local police have to change their attitudes towards the boys,

1528
01:30:00.079 --> 01:30:03.039
<v Speaker 13>thinking of them more as victims than it's criminals. The

1529
01:30:03.159 --> 01:30:06.000
<v Speaker 13>change in philosophy has worked for the Los Angeles Police

1530
01:30:06.039 --> 01:30:09.039
<v Speaker 13>Department and serves as an example for other cities.

1531
01:30:09.520 --> 01:30:12.079
<v Speaker 26>When you've got a fifteen year old boy out on

1532
01:30:12.119 --> 01:30:14.079
<v Speaker 26>the street selling his body, you've got to understand why

1533
01:30:14.119 --> 01:30:14.800
<v Speaker 26>he's out there.

1534
01:30:16.000 --> 01:30:19.279
<v Speaker 2>It's usually due to a poor home life.

1535
01:30:20.159 --> 01:30:23.199
<v Speaker 26>He's there to obtain the necessities of life, and you've

1536
01:30:23.199 --> 01:30:25.760
<v Speaker 26>got to look at that boy as a victim. Even

1537
01:30:25.800 --> 01:30:28.279
<v Speaker 26>though he's out there committing of the crime of prostitution.

1538
01:30:28.359 --> 01:30:30.039
<v Speaker 26>You still have to look at him as a victim

1539
01:30:30.319 --> 01:30:31.319
<v Speaker 26>and why he's out there.

1540
01:30:31.680 --> 01:30:33.079
<v Speaker 3>When you do bring them in, what do you do

1541
01:30:33.159 --> 01:30:33.399
<v Speaker 3>with them?

1542
01:30:33.439 --> 01:30:38.960
<v Speaker 13>You certainly don't just throw them in the county jail somewhere.

1543
01:30:39.319 --> 01:30:42.640
<v Speaker 22>It takes us anywhere from two to six hours to interview.

1544
01:30:42.760 --> 01:30:45.760
<v Speaker 13>You talked to one of these boys for two to

1545
01:30:45.840 --> 01:30:47.359
<v Speaker 13>six hours when you first get him in.

1546
01:30:47.520 --> 01:30:51.920
<v Speaker 22>Yes, sir, initially they don't have trust in the police

1547
01:30:52.039 --> 01:30:57.079
<v Speaker 22>department because it's usually they have had contact with uniform

1548
01:30:57.119 --> 01:31:00.279
<v Speaker 22>police money and a uniform policement of book. If you

1549
01:31:00.319 --> 01:31:02.880
<v Speaker 22>are runaway and they're sort of leary at the police department,

1550
01:31:03.439 --> 01:31:07.119
<v Speaker 22>we'll sit down and we'll gain the kid's confidence.

1551
01:31:07.159 --> 01:31:07.840
<v Speaker 7>We'll talk to him.

1552
01:31:07.880 --> 01:31:09.520
<v Speaker 2>We'll tell him if he is involved.

1553
01:31:09.159 --> 01:31:12.119
<v Speaker 22>In anything, that he hasn't it anything having him to

1554
01:31:12.159 --> 01:31:15.239
<v Speaker 22>do with sex, that he has done nothing wrong at all,

1555
01:31:16.079 --> 01:31:20.119
<v Speaker 22>and we treat them the best we can. We'll contact

1556
01:31:20.199 --> 01:31:22.880
<v Speaker 22>with the victims and we keep calling them weeks later,

1557
01:31:22.960 --> 01:31:24.680
<v Speaker 22>and we'll go out and we'll buy him lunch. And

1558
01:31:24.880 --> 01:31:26.560
<v Speaker 22>this is weeks later you go out and get together

1559
01:31:26.640 --> 01:31:29.119
<v Speaker 22>and see how the boys are going to on progressing,

1560
01:31:29.199 --> 01:31:32.039
<v Speaker 22>and they call us quite a bit.

1561
01:31:33.439 --> 01:31:37.079
<v Speaker 13>Rehabilitation for young boy prostitutes necessitates a change in the

1562
01:31:37.119 --> 01:31:40.640
<v Speaker 13>way they are handled by penal institutions. In San Francisco,

1563
01:31:40.800 --> 01:31:43.680
<v Speaker 13>boy prostitutes from around the nation congregate near some of

1564
01:31:43.680 --> 01:31:47.239
<v Speaker 13>the Plush's hotels, but in San Francisco a boy prostitute

1565
01:31:47.279 --> 01:31:51.399
<v Speaker 13>who was arrested is given special treatment. Sheriff Richard Hangisto

1566
01:31:51.600 --> 01:31:54.399
<v Speaker 13>has set up a new program to deal with young boys.

1567
01:31:54.880 --> 01:32:01.000
<v Speaker 23>The heterosexual inmates are very likely to use to rape

1568
01:32:01.600 --> 01:32:05.520
<v Speaker 23>the younger person or the person they think has had

1569
01:32:06.119 --> 01:32:09.880
<v Speaker 23>homosexual experiences on the streets. They will take advantage of

1570
01:32:09.960 --> 01:32:13.840
<v Speaker 23>them by force, and sometimes they will be very very brutal.

1571
01:32:13.880 --> 01:32:17.399
<v Speaker 23>It's a problem amongst children, juveniles and adults.

1572
01:32:18.039 --> 01:32:19.800
<v Speaker 2>So what has been your answer here?

1573
01:32:20.399 --> 01:32:23.560
<v Speaker 23>We house the gay inmates separately. We don't mix them

1574
01:32:23.600 --> 01:32:28.760
<v Speaker 23>in with heterosexual population just for that reason, and of

1575
01:32:28.800 --> 01:32:30.800
<v Speaker 23>course the same thing is true with juveniles.

1576
01:32:31.159 --> 01:32:33.359
<v Speaker 13>As you view this problem and people like this come

1577
01:32:33.399 --> 01:32:34.720
<v Speaker 13>in off the street, how.

1578
01:32:34.560 --> 01:32:35.199
<v Speaker 2>Do you handle them?

1579
01:32:35.680 --> 01:32:38.159
<v Speaker 23>Well, what we do here is to do what we

1580
01:32:38.239 --> 01:32:41.279
<v Speaker 23>can to make sure that if there are any psychological

1581
01:32:41.319 --> 01:32:44.359
<v Speaker 23>problems that they're dealt with, and also to try to

1582
01:32:44.359 --> 01:32:49.520
<v Speaker 23>aid them with post release help, giving them opportunities as

1583
01:32:49.600 --> 01:32:51.399
<v Speaker 23>much as we can to find a job, to have

1584
01:32:51.439 --> 01:32:53.000
<v Speaker 23>a place to stay, and to get back on their

1585
01:32:53.000 --> 01:32:55.079
<v Speaker 23>feet so that they don't have to sell their bodies

1586
01:32:55.600 --> 01:32:56.279
<v Speaker 23>to make money.

1587
01:32:56.479 --> 01:33:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Here in Austin, the sex crime unit now is, to

1588
01:33:02.000 --> 01:33:05.640
<v Speaker 1>my observation, a solid unit doing the best it can.

1589
01:33:06.000 --> 01:33:08.319
<v Speaker 1>And they have something that's rare in the whole state.

1590
01:33:08.520 --> 01:33:11.239
<v Speaker 1>They have an officer whose sole job is to counsel

1591
01:33:11.319 --> 01:33:15.279
<v Speaker 1>the victims of sex crimes. She's an old student of

1592
01:33:15.319 --> 01:33:18.680
<v Speaker 1>mine and her friend of mine. Her job was funded

1593
01:33:18.720 --> 01:33:23.239
<v Speaker 1>by the US government. She lost her job in the

1594
01:33:23.239 --> 01:33:26.960
<v Speaker 1>Reagan budget last month and she had to fight lobby

1595
01:33:27.039 --> 01:33:31.800
<v Speaker 1>in the city council to get retained as a police officer.

1596
01:33:31.880 --> 01:33:35.439
<v Speaker 1>They've retained her for a year, but the overall budget

1597
01:33:35.479 --> 01:33:39.680
<v Speaker 1>was cut in her job, you know, will remain in jeopardy,

1598
01:33:39.680 --> 01:33:41.000
<v Speaker 1>and it's a vital job.

1599
01:33:41.640 --> 01:33:45.920
<v Speaker 12>I just dad of the problems of investigation and how

1600
01:33:46.159 --> 01:33:47.239
<v Speaker 12>Tom and I learned.

1601
01:33:47.079 --> 01:33:47.640
<v Speaker 16>About all this.

1602
01:33:49.039 --> 01:33:52.399
<v Speaker 12>We just finally realized that Tom thankfully has carried on

1603
01:33:52.840 --> 01:33:53.920
<v Speaker 12>an updated.

1604
01:33:53.560 --> 01:33:55.119
<v Speaker 16>Material and kept close look.

1605
01:33:55.199 --> 01:33:59.720
<v Speaker 12>My full participation only lasts for a period of about six

1606
01:33:59.760 --> 01:34:02.399
<v Speaker 12>months to a year when you were a reporter, when

1607
01:34:02.439 --> 01:34:05.840
<v Speaker 12>I was a reporter, and myself in another former editor

1608
01:34:05.880 --> 01:34:09.079
<v Speaker 12>of the Daily Texan, just as soon as we got

1609
01:34:09.239 --> 01:34:10.960
<v Speaker 12>hooked on it, I mean, as soon as we found

1610
01:34:11.000 --> 01:34:12.760
<v Speaker 12>out what was going on, we went after it with

1611
01:34:13.199 --> 01:34:17.319
<v Speaker 12>entire abandon for a good period of three to six months.

1612
01:34:17.359 --> 01:34:20.760
<v Speaker 12>Almost every day we spent, we forgot our classes, we

1613
01:34:20.800 --> 01:34:23.359
<v Speaker 12>forgot our work at the newspaper. We just we were

1614
01:34:23.840 --> 01:34:26.600
<v Speaker 12>determined to get to the root of it. And after

1615
01:34:26.640 --> 01:34:28.920
<v Speaker 12>six months we had touched the tip of the iceberg.

1616
01:34:28.960 --> 01:34:32.319
<v Speaker 12>And we realized at that time, spending inordinate amounts of time, money,

1617
01:34:32.359 --> 01:34:35.960
<v Speaker 12>and energy which we didn't have to spend already, that

1618
01:34:36.039 --> 01:34:38.359
<v Speaker 12>we needed to be funded by some sort of organization

1619
01:34:38.439 --> 01:34:41.439
<v Speaker 12>much larger than ourselves and a staff much larger than

1620
01:34:41.479 --> 01:34:43.359
<v Speaker 12>ourselves to continue it, to find out really what was

1621
01:34:43.399 --> 01:34:46.520
<v Speaker 12>going on. So I can see how law enforcement agencies,

1622
01:34:46.520 --> 01:34:49.960
<v Speaker 12>with what little funding they have, particularly during attacks times

1623
01:34:49.960 --> 01:34:54.199
<v Speaker 12>such as ours, it's hard to do. And as I said,

1624
01:34:54.279 --> 01:34:58.439
<v Speaker 12>the more we found out, the more questions popped up

1625
01:34:58.439 --> 01:35:01.560
<v Speaker 12>in a deeper because many things, if it's all right

1626
01:35:01.560 --> 01:35:04.000
<v Speaker 12>to range around a little bit here, it ought to

1627
01:35:04.039 --> 01:35:09.159
<v Speaker 12>be said that in academia there's been virtually no contribution.

1628
01:35:10.439 --> 01:35:13.039
<v Speaker 1>I learned about this whole phenomenon as a teacher when

1629
01:35:13.079 --> 01:35:15.920
<v Speaker 1>a student of mine called my attention to the TV

1630
01:35:16.079 --> 01:35:19.319
<v Speaker 1>documentary Boys for Sale, which was made in Houston. As

1631
01:35:19.399 --> 01:35:22.880
<v Speaker 1>embarrassed that I didn't know anything about the subject, mentioned

1632
01:35:22.920 --> 01:35:27.319
<v Speaker 1>it to sociologists, anthropologists, psychologists, social workers. They didn't know

1633
01:35:27.359 --> 01:35:30.319
<v Speaker 1>anything about it either. Then I went into the bibliography

1634
01:35:30.359 --> 01:35:33.760
<v Speaker 1>and found that it was first meager and second heavily

1635
01:35:34.000 --> 01:35:38.159
<v Speaker 1>oriented towards the defense and explication of the pederist. Like

1636
01:35:38.199 --> 01:35:43.439
<v Speaker 1>the lawyer's commentary I quoted to you. Is considered a

1637
01:35:43.479 --> 01:35:46.680
<v Speaker 1>dirty subject and people aren't supposed to go into it.

1638
01:35:46.800 --> 01:35:48.840
<v Speaker 1>Every semester when I lecture on it, I have students

1639
01:35:48.880 --> 01:35:53.199
<v Speaker 1>get up and walk out. I used to have complaints

1640
01:35:53.239 --> 01:35:58.279
<v Speaker 1>made to the department, to the college, to the university,

1641
01:35:58.680 --> 01:36:01.439
<v Speaker 1>and so on that I was doing pornographic things in

1642
01:36:01.479 --> 01:36:06.039
<v Speaker 1>the classroom. That's abated, but people still get upset and

1643
01:36:06.079 --> 01:36:09.880
<v Speaker 1>walk out, maybe not because they are offended, but because

1644
01:36:09.880 --> 01:36:13.239
<v Speaker 1>they're emiserated by it and they want to get away

1645
01:36:13.239 --> 01:36:13.560
<v Speaker 1>from it.

1646
01:36:14.359 --> 01:36:16.720
<v Speaker 2>People don't like to look at reality well.

1647
01:36:16.640 --> 01:36:23.199
<v Speaker 1>Especially this stuff is horrible at any rate. If the

1648
01:36:23.239 --> 01:36:26.319
<v Speaker 1>police department from any major city went over to the

1649
01:36:26.359 --> 01:36:30.880
<v Speaker 1>major educational institution in its area and asked for a

1650
01:36:31.000 --> 01:36:35.079
<v Speaker 1>contribution from the faculty, that faculty could contribute practically nothing.

1651
01:36:36.239 --> 01:36:41.119
<v Speaker 1>Academics have been not necessarily remiss. They have been oblivious

1652
01:36:41.600 --> 01:36:42.000
<v Speaker 1>to this.

1653
01:36:42.640 --> 01:36:46.399
<v Speaker 2>Can I ask you, unless you it would compromise your

1654
01:36:46.880 --> 01:36:49.640
<v Speaker 2>information system, how do you go about getting your information?

1655
01:36:51.000 --> 01:36:59.880
<v Speaker 1>Observation, interviewing and interviewing of many kinds, Interviewing kids, interviewing

1656
01:37:00.039 --> 01:37:01.960
<v Speaker 1>people who are willing to talk, were on the other

1657
01:37:02.000 --> 01:37:06.960
<v Speaker 1>side of the street, so to speak, and investigators.

1658
01:37:07.520 --> 01:37:11.479
<v Speaker 3>Have you written any books or are you planning any

1659
01:37:11.600 --> 01:37:12.960
<v Speaker 3>articles or studies on this?

1660
01:37:13.520 --> 01:37:16.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm working on a book and I expect it will

1661
01:37:17.000 --> 01:37:20.199
<v Speaker 1>not be the last book that I'll write about the subject,

1662
01:37:20.279 --> 01:37:23.159
<v Speaker 1>and I'll be teaching a course on it in the spring,

1663
01:37:23.239 --> 01:37:24.720
<v Speaker 1>and as far as I know, it'll be the first

1664
01:37:24.720 --> 01:37:26.920
<v Speaker 1>one ever taught in an American college.

1665
01:37:28.439 --> 01:37:30.600
<v Speaker 2>Can we talk about the mass media treatment. We've kind

1666
01:37:30.600 --> 01:37:34.399
<v Speaker 2>of hit on it here and there from what I

1667
01:37:34.439 --> 01:37:38.239
<v Speaker 2>seem to get the electronic media, particularly a couple of

1668
01:37:38.279 --> 01:37:40.920
<v Speaker 2>TV stations. I've done most of the work on it,

1669
01:37:40.960 --> 01:37:45.000
<v Speaker 2>and the newspapers haven't done much. The exception of Mark

1670
01:37:45.039 --> 01:37:48.279
<v Speaker 2>and get well right with the exception of the Texan.

1671
01:37:48.880 --> 01:37:49.760
<v Speaker 16>Well, it's interesting.

1672
01:37:49.920 --> 01:37:52.920
<v Speaker 12>Throughout all the things that we did, we thought, and

1673
01:37:53.000 --> 01:37:54.880
<v Speaker 12>perhaps we were in a minority, but we thought it

1674
01:37:54.920 --> 01:37:59.079
<v Speaker 12>was information that was in the best public interest to

1675
01:37:59.159 --> 01:38:00.600
<v Speaker 12>know or at least be exposed to.

1676
01:38:01.359 --> 01:38:04.319
<v Speaker 16>Was not touched by any other local media.

1677
01:38:05.079 --> 01:38:07.159
<v Speaker 3>Do you have any explanation for this? Why didn't the

1678
01:38:07.159 --> 01:38:09.680
<v Speaker 3>Austin American Statesman pick up on it? I really don't

1679
01:38:09.680 --> 01:38:12.039
<v Speaker 3>know the TV did you ever take it to them?

1680
01:38:16.039 --> 01:38:18.840
<v Speaker 12>But actually I think the Statesman did run one or two.

1681
01:38:19.800 --> 01:38:22.159
<v Speaker 12>I think they ran the initial story about Anderson the

1682
01:38:22.159 --> 01:38:24.520
<v Speaker 12>pharmacist being and that's what sparked our interests.

1683
01:38:24.560 --> 01:38:28.119
<v Speaker 3>And of course did you ever talk to the reporter

1684
01:38:28.239 --> 01:38:30.920
<v Speaker 3>that did that story and see why they didn't pursue there?

1685
01:38:31.119 --> 01:38:32.560
<v Speaker 12>No, I don't think I did. I think we got

1686
01:38:32.560 --> 01:38:33.760
<v Speaker 12>so wrapped up in what we were doing.

1687
01:38:34.279 --> 01:38:36.760
<v Speaker 2>What about down in Houston? Is there any evidence of

1688
01:38:37.000 --> 01:38:39.600
<v Speaker 2>pressure to keep the lid on down there?

1689
01:38:40.239 --> 01:38:44.199
<v Speaker 1>Well? When Boyce Versale was shown on TV, it was

1690
01:38:44.239 --> 01:38:47.520
<v Speaker 1>shown first as a nightly series and then there was

1691
01:38:47.560 --> 01:38:53.600
<v Speaker 1>a summary program which you'll have excerpts of the biggest

1692
01:38:53.600 --> 01:38:57.960
<v Speaker 1>bank in Houston with Drewitt's advertising from the show and

1693
01:38:58.119 --> 01:39:01.239
<v Speaker 1>from the station because showed that program.

1694
01:39:01.520 --> 01:39:03.399
<v Speaker 2>But they didn't. They didn't withdraw it until the.

1695
01:39:03.439 --> 01:39:06.319
<v Speaker 1>Last not the last minute. They kept saying, if you

1696
01:39:06.399 --> 01:39:09.479
<v Speaker 1>don't kill that program tonight, we're going to withdraw our advertising.

1697
01:39:09.479 --> 01:39:13.399
<v Speaker 1>And they did, and the bank managed to get the

1698
01:39:14.119 --> 01:39:19.000
<v Speaker 1>other advertisers for that program to withdraw their advertisings. The

1699
01:39:19.039 --> 01:39:22.760
<v Speaker 1>Houston Post and the Houston Chronicle. Again, that story I

1700
01:39:23.119 --> 01:39:26.000
<v Speaker 1>mentioned in the previous program about the bust of this

1701
01:39:26.199 --> 01:39:32.520
<v Speaker 1>mansion with this incredibly elaborate film studio in it emerges

1702
01:39:32.800 --> 01:39:35.800
<v Speaker 1>in the Post and the Chronicle as a little place

1703
01:39:35.920 --> 01:39:36.840
<v Speaker 1>with some cameras.

1704
01:39:37.760 --> 01:39:40.960
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, and the problem is not so much that the

1705
01:39:40.960 --> 01:39:43.560
<v Speaker 12>incidents are ignored, but there's never any follow up. There's

1706
01:39:43.600 --> 01:39:46.279
<v Speaker 12>never any investigation. They just take the easy way out.

1707
01:39:46.359 --> 01:39:48.960
<v Speaker 12>Something happened, boom, it happened next day, it is forgotten.

1708
01:39:49.159 --> 01:39:51.560
<v Speaker 12>What we need in the media's follow up an investigation

1709
01:39:51.640 --> 01:39:54.560
<v Speaker 12>on everybody's part so that we won't so that will

1710
01:39:55.079 --> 01:39:56.800
<v Speaker 12>become sensitized to the issue.

1711
01:39:57.199 --> 01:40:00.039
<v Speaker 3>You had some threats of physical violence also in you

1712
01:40:00.119 --> 01:40:01.239
<v Speaker 3>were doing this investigation.

1713
01:40:01.319 --> 01:40:04.520
<v Speaker 16>Well, this we were working with some people from Houston.

1714
01:40:04.560 --> 01:40:05.960
<v Speaker 12>I knew a lot more about it than we did,

1715
01:40:06.000 --> 01:40:09.840
<v Speaker 12>and they, of course counseled us and said, beware, I

1716
01:40:09.880 --> 01:40:13.560
<v Speaker 12>had my windshield broken in, I mean a brick thrown

1717
01:40:13.600 --> 01:40:14.439
<v Speaker 12>through my windshield.

1718
01:40:14.520 --> 01:40:15.560
<v Speaker 16>Is I don't know if that was.

1719
01:40:17.119 --> 01:40:20.760
<v Speaker 12>Entirely coincidentally, sincerely doubt is because the timing and nature.

1720
01:40:21.279 --> 01:40:23.279
<v Speaker 2>Well, this may be one very good reason why there

1721
01:40:23.279 --> 01:40:25.279
<v Speaker 2>hadn't been warning, why there hadn't been a lot of

1722
01:40:25.319 --> 01:40:30.319
<v Speaker 2>investigative reporting. Now well, in the Houston, the shotgun incident

1723
01:40:30.439 --> 01:40:31.359
<v Speaker 2>has had some problem.

1724
01:40:31.439 --> 01:40:35.079
<v Speaker 1>Well, the moderator of the show Voice for Sale had

1725
01:40:35.079 --> 01:40:38.279
<v Speaker 1>a shotgun go through blast go through his window, and

1726
01:40:38.359 --> 01:40:41.079
<v Speaker 1>then another one go through his uh, then his window

1727
01:40:41.079 --> 01:40:43.560
<v Speaker 1>of his home, and then another blast go through the

1728
01:40:43.600 --> 01:40:46.039
<v Speaker 1>windshield of his car as he was approaching the car

1729
01:40:46.119 --> 01:40:52.560
<v Speaker 1>to get into it. That kind of signal usually sufficient

1730
01:40:53.359 --> 01:40:56.840
<v Speaker 1>to warn a person off. Any one of us in

1731
01:40:56.880 --> 01:40:59.520
<v Speaker 1>the country, and there aren't very many of us who

1732
01:40:59.520 --> 01:41:02.239
<v Speaker 1>have worked intensely on this for a period of years.

1733
01:41:02.600 --> 01:41:08.600
<v Speaker 1>Has received threats and has been subject to at least

1734
01:41:08.880 --> 01:41:13.720
<v Speaker 1>feigned attempts, and the idea is that that should scare

1735
01:41:13.800 --> 01:41:17.000
<v Speaker 1>us off. It has worked with a whole lot of people.

1736
01:41:17.640 --> 01:41:20.399
<v Speaker 2>The day after part one of Boys for Sale was

1737
01:41:20.520 --> 01:41:25.239
<v Speaker 2>Cable cast. Tom Philpott's van was vandalized, the tires were

1738
01:41:25.239 --> 01:41:29.079
<v Speaker 2>slashed and the accelerator was jammed to the floor. And

1739
01:41:29.119 --> 01:41:33.159
<v Speaker 2>then the following week Tom was shot in what appears

1740
01:41:33.199 --> 01:41:39.920
<v Speaker 2>to have been an assassination attempt. Has anybody been killed? Actually?

1741
01:41:41.159 --> 01:41:43.239
<v Speaker 12>What about the guy that wrote the book? That he

1742
01:41:43.279 --> 01:41:45.680
<v Speaker 12>got a sunken blast that did wound him? I think

1743
01:41:45.680 --> 01:41:46.680
<v Speaker 12>pretty seriously, didn't it?

1744
01:41:47.199 --> 01:41:50.279
<v Speaker 3>Well, what then should society do about this? How can

1745
01:41:50.359 --> 01:41:51.640
<v Speaker 3>this problem be dealt with?

1746
01:41:52.039 --> 01:41:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's a tall question. Law enforcement has to has

1747
01:41:57.960 --> 01:42:00.720
<v Speaker 1>to be activated, and it has to be supported and

1748
01:42:00.840 --> 01:42:03.359
<v Speaker 1>has to be seen through the end of the procedure

1749
01:42:03.439 --> 01:42:06.880
<v Speaker 1>so that you don't have congressmen pleading not guilty or

1750
01:42:07.000 --> 01:42:11.640
<v Speaker 1>no contender and getting no penalty. The kids who are

1751
01:42:12.479 --> 01:42:15.760
<v Speaker 1>rescued in this process have got to be cared for

1752
01:42:15.880 --> 01:42:18.520
<v Speaker 1>and helped, and no one really knows how to do it,

1753
01:42:18.560 --> 01:42:20.439
<v Speaker 1>but it's got to be done. A way has got

1754
01:42:20.520 --> 01:42:22.399
<v Speaker 1>to be found. They've got to be helped, and then,

1755
01:42:22.439 --> 01:42:26.319
<v Speaker 1>most obviously, we've got to find a way to re

1756
01:42:26.560 --> 01:42:30.720
<v Speaker 1>establish a society which does not throw up literally a

1757
01:42:30.760 --> 01:42:34.079
<v Speaker 1>half million kids a year onto the city streets and

1758
01:42:34.159 --> 01:42:38.960
<v Speaker 1>leave them there to be hurt. American families have to

1759
01:42:39.000 --> 01:42:43.720
<v Speaker 1>have support. It's good enough to say the families love

1760
01:42:43.760 --> 01:42:46.720
<v Speaker 1>your children, but they have to have the wherewithal to

1761
01:42:46.760 --> 01:42:49.560
<v Speaker 1>care for their children, and obviously American families do not.

1762
01:42:50.319 --> 01:42:52.800
<v Speaker 1>These kids are not minority kids in the main, but

1763
01:42:52.840 --> 01:42:57.159
<v Speaker 1>they're mainly poor kids. They're from hard driven, hard living families.

1764
01:42:58.239 --> 01:43:03.159
<v Speaker 14>And it's so very, very sad, and it's so sad

1765
01:43:03.199 --> 01:43:07.560
<v Speaker 14>that we need to respond to them. We people who

1766
01:43:08.119 --> 01:43:11.640
<v Speaker 14>who've got our stuff together and who think we know

1767
01:43:11.720 --> 01:43:13.319
<v Speaker 14>a lot about a lot of things. We just need

1768
01:43:13.359 --> 01:43:14.960
<v Speaker 14>to reach out to those kinds of kids.

1769
01:43:15.000 --> 01:43:16.760
<v Speaker 16>We need to go out there and find them.

1770
01:43:16.840 --> 01:43:20.079
<v Speaker 13>How quickly can a city like Houston move in this area?

1771
01:43:20.600 --> 01:43:23.319
<v Speaker 14>Well, we can move as quickly in this areas we

1772
01:43:23.359 --> 01:43:25.760
<v Speaker 14>should as we have been in other areas. We can

1773
01:43:26.720 --> 01:43:30.000
<v Speaker 14>build a billion dollar Houston Center downtown, then we can

1774
01:43:30.039 --> 01:43:34.159
<v Speaker 14>certainly move quickly to solve human problems and problems of people.

1775
01:43:34.159 --> 01:43:35.520
<v Speaker 1>In fin Are we going to do?

1776
01:43:35.600 --> 01:43:39.319
<v Speaker 2>You see a role for big business in Houston in

1777
01:43:40.079 --> 01:43:40.520
<v Speaker 2>this plan?

1778
01:43:42.399 --> 01:43:42.600
<v Speaker 21>Yeah?

1779
01:43:42.640 --> 01:43:46.199
<v Speaker 14>One role is money, you know, and a lot can

1780
01:43:46.439 --> 01:43:49.000
<v Speaker 14>Let's face it, a lot can be done with money.

1781
01:43:49.439 --> 01:43:51.479
<v Speaker 14>A lot of alternatives can be offered if we have

1782
01:43:51.520 --> 01:43:52.720
<v Speaker 14>the money to pay for them.

1783
01:43:53.039 --> 01:43:53.920
<v Speaker 1>And there's enough.

1784
01:43:53.800 --> 01:43:57.640
<v Speaker 14>Excess money in ten corporations in this city to do

1785
01:43:57.680 --> 01:43:59.640
<v Speaker 14>anything we would want to to save every one.

1786
01:43:59.520 --> 01:44:01.640
<v Speaker 2>Of these kids. Jocking as it is, when you put

1787
01:44:01.640 --> 01:44:05.920
<v Speaker 2>in a perspective, maybe it's really not quite so unexpected

1788
01:44:05.960 --> 01:44:11.640
<v Speaker 2>considering the history of what the people have been subject

1789
01:44:11.680 --> 01:44:13.960
<v Speaker 2>to who have been under the control and rule of

1790
01:44:14.000 --> 01:44:16.760
<v Speaker 2>these people. When you start to think about what's been

1791
01:44:16.800 --> 01:44:20.840
<v Speaker 2>done to the Indians, the terrible working conditions that people

1792
01:44:21.000 --> 01:44:23.279
<v Speaker 2>lived in for years and worked under for years, the

1793
01:44:23.359 --> 01:44:29.680
<v Speaker 2>dangerous condition that pesticides that people are forced to ingest,

1794
01:44:30.720 --> 01:44:33.800
<v Speaker 2>the lack of safety, and the places where we work,

1795
01:44:35.119 --> 01:44:39.640
<v Speaker 2>wars where people are slaughtered. There's really a long history

1796
01:44:39.640 --> 01:44:42.840
<v Speaker 2>of this. And is this the same type of impulse

1797
01:44:43.000 --> 01:44:46.840
<v Speaker 2>turned focused just on a small boy, or is this

1798
01:44:46.880 --> 01:44:47.800
<v Speaker 2>something really unique?

1799
01:44:47.840 --> 01:44:48.439
<v Speaker 7>You think.

1800
01:44:50.920 --> 01:44:54.760
<v Speaker 1>That is an easy to answer, frank, because in all honesty,

1801
01:44:54.800 --> 01:44:58.640
<v Speaker 1>this subject has baffled me from the time I first

1802
01:44:58.720 --> 01:45:03.319
<v Speaker 1>became aware of it until this day. I can't understand it,

1803
01:45:04.800 --> 01:45:09.960
<v Speaker 1>and I'm trying very hard, and it's very difficult. As

1804
01:45:10.000 --> 01:45:13.760
<v Speaker 1>an historian. I know that this society, probably above all

1805
01:45:14.039 --> 01:45:18.119
<v Speaker 1>in the world in the history of the world, romanticizes childhood,

1806
01:45:19.760 --> 01:45:25.479
<v Speaker 1>but the historical record child labor, for one thing, indicates

1807
01:45:25.680 --> 01:45:29.279
<v Speaker 1>the society has not been good to children, has not

1808
01:45:29.840 --> 01:45:38.279
<v Speaker 1>protected children. In fact, is contemptuous of children, heartless to children.

1809
01:45:40.439 --> 01:45:43.840
<v Speaker 1>And there's such helpless victims. Who can they go to?

1810
01:45:44.720 --> 01:45:53.720
<v Speaker 1>What constituency do they have? Nobody? The heartlessness that goes

1811
01:45:53.760 --> 01:46:01.039
<v Speaker 1>into it is certainly somehow connected with the heartlessness which

1812
01:46:01.640 --> 01:46:10.920
<v Speaker 1>ground up the Indians, black people, immigrant laborers, poor people

1813
01:46:10.960 --> 01:46:15.079
<v Speaker 1>in general, which is motivating the cuts and social programs today.

1814
01:46:16.880 --> 01:46:23.199
<v Speaker 1>Blindness to the actual living reality of people's situations. Yes,

1815
01:46:23.600 --> 01:46:29.439
<v Speaker 1>it's connected, But this is the It's about the most

1816
01:46:29.479 --> 01:46:33.640
<v Speaker 1>hair raising thing I think I've encountered in studying the

1817
01:46:33.680 --> 01:46:38.239
<v Speaker 1>history of my country. The slaughter of the innocence. It's

1818
01:46:38.239 --> 01:46:42.920
<v Speaker 1>the greatest slaughter of the innocence since Herod. And it

1819
01:46:42.960 --> 01:46:45.399
<v Speaker 1>goes on and on and on, and when the publicans

1820
01:46:45.840 --> 01:46:49.039
<v Speaker 1>a hint of it, nothing happens. The case of Price

1821
01:46:49.159 --> 01:46:58.479
<v Speaker 1>Daniel is instructive there. It came out in the custody

1822
01:46:58.479 --> 01:47:02.840
<v Speaker 1>hearing of Missus Daniel, who admitted to shooting her husband,

1823
01:47:03.800 --> 01:47:07.920
<v Speaker 1>that he attacked their son, and there was testimony that

1824
01:47:08.359 --> 01:47:15.439
<v Speaker 1>he had relations with other adolescents. There wasn't any inquiry

1825
01:47:15.439 --> 01:47:19.279
<v Speaker 1>as to what that might mean for society. Price Daniel

1826
01:47:19.399 --> 01:47:24.239
<v Speaker 1>is one of the major names of Texas and all

1827
01:47:24.279 --> 01:47:26.960
<v Speaker 1>these other names that we've mentioned of people have been

1828
01:47:27.039 --> 01:47:33.680
<v Speaker 1>caught and let off. There doesn't seem to be any

1829
01:47:33.720 --> 01:47:41.279
<v Speaker 1>willingness to make the connections which you have implied and

1830
01:47:41.319 --> 01:47:41.760
<v Speaker 1>face him.

1831
01:47:43.920 --> 01:47:45.239
<v Speaker 2>And it's time we did, right.

1832
01:47:47.079 --> 01:47:51.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Dan, Right, It's time we did. There needs to

1833
01:47:51.920 --> 01:47:54.680
<v Speaker 1>be police action, There needs to be action in the

1834
01:47:54.720 --> 01:47:57.439
<v Speaker 1>academy of which I am part to study this. There

1835
01:47:57.479 --> 01:48:00.000
<v Speaker 1>has to be rehabilitation for kids, and most of all,

1836
01:48:00.039 --> 01:48:02.479
<v Speaker 1>American families have got to be put on a footing

1837
01:48:02.600 --> 01:48:05.760
<v Speaker 1>where their children are not in jeopardy of being lost

1838
01:48:05.800 --> 01:48:10.479
<v Speaker 1>in this way. Whole society has got to answer for this,

1839
01:48:11.199 --> 01:48:12.239
<v Speaker 1>do something about it.

1840
01:48:12.640 --> 01:48:15.800
<v Speaker 13>If we don't make this move, what do you think

1841
01:48:15.800 --> 01:48:17.199
<v Speaker 13>the results would be in Houston?

1842
01:48:17.199 --> 01:48:19.920
<v Speaker 14>They'll get worse and worse and worse, and they'll be

1843
01:48:20.039 --> 01:48:24.880
<v Speaker 14>kids killed in the dead of night and dumped on

1844
01:48:24.920 --> 01:48:28.199
<v Speaker 14>the highway like they are right now. It'll get worse.

1845
01:48:28.239 --> 01:48:31.680
<v Speaker 14>It'll never get better. You don't sit back and see

1846
01:48:31.720 --> 01:48:35.119
<v Speaker 14>something like this. It's history is proven there and just

1847
01:48:35.159 --> 01:48:38.600
<v Speaker 14>watch it and it gets better. It'll get worse, much worse.

1848
01:48:40.640 --> 01:48:43.000
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to the fact Hunter Radio Network.

1849
01:48:46.560 --> 01:48:47.399
<v Speaker 16>Just the facts, ma'amy
