The Franklin Scandal: A Story of Powerbrokers, Child Abuse & Betrayal

Written by Nick Bryant

Narrated by Nick Bryant

A chilling exposé of corporate corruption and government cover-ups, this account of a nationwide child-trafficking and pedophilia ring in the United States tells a sordid tale of corruption in high places.

The scandal originally surfaced during an investigation into Omaha - Nebraska's failed Franklin Federal Credit Union that went beyond the Midwest, ultimately to Washington, DC.

Implicating businessmen, senators, major media corporations, the CIA, and even the venerable Boys Town organization, this extensively researched report includes firsthand interviews with key witnesses and explores a controversy that has received scant media attention.

Should be required reading for every American. Thank God for this author, and God be with the victims of the Franklin scandal, and scandals like it all around the world. What a scary world.

This is a difficult but necessary book to read... if you wonder what the hell the real story behind Jeffery Epstein is then listen to this book and the Real Story behind Epstein will become evident to you...

[Matthew Shaw · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This book is the story of government malice. It shows how malevolent and powerful government and law enforcement can be when it’s interests are threatened, and it tells the heartbreaking story of the only person punished for a wide reaching conspiracy: the victim.

[Danielle Rud · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Some parts, usually around the details from trials, can get long. But they are important. It's important info. Stick through and read the epilogue. You won't be disappointed.
