In the McMartin Preschool trial, they pushed the "no tunnels" line. However, an archaeologist found evidence of tunnels. Dave McGowen claims, in Programmed to Kill, the evidence of the tunnels was know at the time of the trial but withheld from the jury.

OP is helping you.

Your unwillingness to utilize an innate ability to read, reason & thereafter create a personal understanding of things as they may be is a detriment not only to you; but those important to you, in your life.

It is your path towards enlightenment/samadhi/nirvana/heaven/hell etc., OP is sharing a part of his/her experience, and based on my familiarity with the work & the author, he is indeed doing you a solid.

  "Programmed to Kill" by David McGowan
  
  >The specter of the marauding serial killer has become a relatively common feature on the American landscape. Reactions to these modern-day monsters range from revulsion to morbid fascination-fascination that is either fed by, or a product of, the saturation coverage provided by print and broadcast media, along with a dizzying array of books, documentary films, websites, and “Movies of the Week”. The prevalence in Western culture of images of serial killers (and mass murderers) has created in the public mind a consensus view of what a serial killer is. Most people are aware, to some degree, of the classic serial killer ‘profile.’ But what if there is a much different ‘profile’-one that has not received much media attention? In Programmed to Kill, acclaimed and always controversial author David McGowan takes a fresh look at the lives of many of America’s most notorious accused murderers, focusing on the largely hidden patterns that suggest that there may be more to the average serial killer story than meets the eye. Think you know everything there is to know about serial killers? Or is it possible that sometimes what everyone ‘knows’ to be true isn’t really true at all?

I have not totally read this book yet. I do own it. I used to read a lot at McGowan's website: http://centerforaninformedamerica.com/

I think his main premise is that most or all of the famous serial killers were "government operations".

Dave McGowan talked about this extensively occurring in many, many, many local US cases that the FBI weighed in on in order to pin it on local deadbeats when evidence indicated wider involvement of coordinated and organized groups in serial killings across the US in his book "Programmed to kill: The politics of serial murder":

There's also Dave MacGowan's 'Programmed to Kill'. I've read the book several times, and although it's highly speculative, I think it contains the best explanation for alot of these unsolved murders.

Programmed to Kill: The Politics of Serial Murder

http://www.amazon.com/Programmed-Kill-Politics-Serial-Murder/dp/0595326404

Programmed to Kill: The Politics of Serial Murder, by David McGowan (New York: iUniverse, Inc., 2004) is not just another sensationalized book about serial killers. McGowan, author of Derailing Democracy: The America the Media Don't Want You to See, and Understanding the F-Word: American Fascism and the Politics of Illusion, ties serial murders, programmed assassins, satanic cults and child pornography and prostitution to a fascist political and military conspiracy of frightening scope.

I normally hate reading about this type of material. Too sickening. But McGowan, unlike most authors who treat this stuff, is not interested in sensationalized accounts that appeal to dark prurient interests. Rather, he wants to sound the alarm about the real methods used in fascist takeovers of societies.

McGowan begins by reviewing the evidence for government sponsored mind control experiments dating back to the Nazis and the OSS (forerunner of the CIA). According to McGowan, these shadowy intelligence agencies, along with the military intelligence units, founded, encouraged, and covered up for Satanic cults, whose systematic abuse of children from very young ages provided a contnuing supply of potential mind-controlled programmed assassins. They supplied not only assassins but also child prostitutes, pornography subects and even sacrificial victims. The more susceptible to dissociated states, the easier to program. Mind control in this context refers to "the process of first enhancing an unwitting subject's natural ability to dissociate (creating, in essence, the condition of Multiple Personality Disorder), and then controlling that subject's dissociative states (by creating one or more alter personalities that are effectively under the control of others, and that are unknown to the core' personality).&quot; (p. xv)<br /> <br /> Part I of the book is titled &quot;The Pedophocracy.&quot; Here McGowan takes the reader on a tour of child sex, child porn and child murder rings around the world whose members include many high-ranking political figures. One of the things that tie all these scandals together is the cover-up of participants, destruction of evidence, and lenient sentences to those who have to take the fall by authorities around the world. From the Marc Dutroux scandal in Belgium, to one in Latvia involving the Prime Minister and Justice Minister, to another in Portugal, to the scandal in the United Kingdom that reportedly reached into Tony Blair's cabinet, to those of Larry King, Michael Aquino and Craig Spence in the United States with many circumstantial connections to high-ranking political and media figures, McGowan shows how the damage control operations, including numerous &quot;suicides&quot; by potential witnesses, work.<br /> <br /> McGowan then details the CIA connections of some of the Satanic groups that have been linked to ritual abuse and killing of children, in particular the Finders, described in an article in the Washington Post from 1987 as &quot;a 1960's style commune ... described in a court document as acult' that allegedly conducted brainwashing' and used children inrituals (p. 59). After some members of the group were arrested for possible kidnapping when found in the possession of several children who they were keeping in a van and who showed signs of neglect, abuse and sexual abuse, homes and warehouses belonging to group members were searched. U.S. Customs found "photos showing children involved in bloodletting ceremonies of animals and one photograph of a child in chains" (pp. 59-60). While memos written by one of the U.S. Customs investigators detailed evidence of much worse actions, nothing was written in the press about the matter until seven years later when the US News and World Report attempted to put it to rest by downplaying the accusations as "rumors" even though they were in the possession of the memos.

McGowan goes on to note that "the firm that supplied training to CIA officers didn't just employ several members of the Finders, but appears to have in fact been a wholly owned subsidiary of the Finders organization. It should also be noted that the CIA does not, as a general rule-of-thumb, assign the training of its officers to outside contractors, unless, that is, the private' firm utilized in such a capacity is a CIA front.&quot; (p. 61) The leader of the Finders group, Marion Pettie, in a 1998 interview explained that &quot;Going back to World War II, I kept open house mainly to intelligence people in Washington. OSS people passing through, things like that.&quot; (p. 65) Regarding evidence found regarding international trafficking of children, the US Custom Service investigator in his memo stated that he was advised by a member of the Washington D.C. police that &quot;the investigation into the activity of the Finders had become a CIA internal matter. The MPD [D.C. police] report has been classified SECRET and was not available for review.&quot; (p. 66). No one was indicted.<br /> <br /> McGowan concludes Part I by suggesting that &quot;it is certainly in the realm of possibility that the high profile child pornography raids in recent years, which invariably result in relatively few arrests and even fewer prosecutions and convictions, are not intended to punish the victimizers, but to identify and compromise them. And it is not inconceivable that the databases being compiled will be utilized as something of a recruitment list to identify those persons who have beenpreconditioned,' so to speak, for future mind control operations." (p. 68)

McGowan begins Part II with the story of Henry Lee Lucas, a serial killer who confessed to nearly 600 murders, committed "rape, torture, mutilation, dismemberment, necrophilia, cannibalism and pedophilia" (p. 71) and who, oddly enough, was the only death-row inmate in the State of Texas spared death by Governor George Bush. McGowan suggests the reason for this and other odd leniencies enjoyed by Lucas lies in the possibility that he was an MK-Ultra programmed assassin.

By perpetuating the myth of the lone serial killer, authorities can deflect attention away from organized groups, cults or intelligence services. McGowan shows that in nearly all cases, the serial killers most likely had accomplices. The close ties of serial killers, child pimps and pornographers to people in position of authority in politics and law enforcement has also been covered up. Lucas himself is quoted as saying: "No one wants to believe the cult story. The TV people cut it out. The writers don't write about it." (p. 88)

Part III looks at some recent scandals as well as historical precedents from the past. Along the way we get a lucid exposition of why the parents of Jon-Benet Ramsey probably killed her and why Charles Lindbergh probably killed his "kidnapped" son.

McGowan concludes that the wave of sensationalized serial killings beginning around 1966 were a domestication of Operation Phoenix, the U.S. program of mass political assassination in Vietnam. The goal was to shock and frighten the public into acceptance of police state measures in the United States and to create a climate of right-wing reaction.

So Gideon's spies focuses on Mossad but it also investigated how intelligence agencies own journalists and turn them into mouth pieces for the agency. CIA is notorious for this. If you haven't read about it you're not informed.

In compromised we learn how the CIA plays a role in forming public opinion and playing king maker for the presidency. Terry Reed was an intelligence operative and his reputation is beyond reproach.


https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/review/0595326404/R2Q4ATKL3OCDCQ/ref=cm_cr_dp_mb_rvw_1?ie=UTF8&cursor=1

In programmed to kill we learn about the pedophocracy which is a black market network of child sex rings the CIA uncovers and compromises much like the el chapo cartel they co-opt and control for 1. $ and 2. Learn how the other cartels operate to dismantle them. The CIA has used the pedo-market to control foreign leaders and raise $ for black budget.

So to summarize we have a valid and proven history of the CIA controlling journalists as propaganda to control public opinion in regards to their foreign operations, next we learn how they have had a direct hand as deep state operative in dictating who will be president to maintain their network of power and lastly we learn their network of power utilizes child slave trading and drug running to fund their black market endeavors.

Also I have friends in DC and intelligence on JSOC who have filled me in on other issues which put me in the know so you can eat shit and die. This comment is for people who are actually curious, not you considering your reply was obviously mocking and doubtful.

Can't wait till trump is president and Flynn gives JSOC orders to hunt down enemies of our state and murder them.
