News I wanted to share...from Noreen Gosch!!
I wanted to share with everyone, news that the producers of the Lifetime Mini Series Human Trafficking, have contacted Noreen Gosch. We are hopeful they will continue their work, as they are very intersted in her. Noreen has also been invited to speak at the conference in Los Angeles, below is the press release from Tony Nassif, president of the Cedars Cultural and Educational Foundation who will host THE PREVENTING ABUSE CONFERENCE on HUMAN TRAFFICKING. Anyone in LA is welcome to attend. Colin Powell's former chief of staff also mentioned human trafficking in his "cabal" speech. We are hoping they will use Johnny's case, to further education on this subject. We may have to contact them, to show support for Johnny's story. Please share the press release below with everyone you know! The group is commending the mini series!

As she searched for her son she discovered human trafficking--in America.

Noreen's story was told on America's Most Wanted, she's appeared on such shows as Larry King Live, 20/20, Dateline and a host of others. She went from tragedy to action.

3. You are right...Andy should be here
but he cannot, and would want us to help her. If this story comes back out...we all know where it leads. Cleaning house, will become a household word once again. These kidz, who are now men, need to go home if they want to. Those that are alive. We all know Johnny came home in 97 as a grown man, and we need to help him. This is gurggling up once again...and these producers have the $$ to get the word out. Noreen is the expert in our country, and we know this is what happened to Johnny. Paul Bonacce testified in court, that he saw Col. Michael Aquino, pay $10,000 for Johnny. He was also the head of the Temple of Set. He was used for an elite group...like Gannon, obviously, etc. We can help here...Andy is smiling!
:hi:

8. Oh, thanks hiley!
I'm definately going to save this.:hug: I saw the show live but I missed seeing the video posted anywhere.

I think I'm missing Andy more today because of the sad occassion of 2k dead and also all the excitement of these past weeks. Things are coming to a head and I know he would be fired up..

Yes, I know there's a part of him that is within all of us. But for some reason the tears just keep coming. Must be pent up.

9. I understand completely
the death of a cherished soul like Andy is hard to deal with especially when things are going on that would mean so much to him.
Much love to you,
hiley
