Conspiracy of Silence was an eye-opener. A must see.
I'm not seeing a pentagram. There's not enough lines. Looks like an X with a line under as someone noted, or perhaps even a pyramid with two lines or dots above it. Reminds me of the Illuminati pyramid, but that's just me.
Zalva said his investigation never resulted in an arrest because the children in the photos never admitted that the suspect touched them inappropriately. He said the boys in the photos had voluntarily posed for the photos, but he couldn’t recall why.
“Basically, what happened is someone, maybe it was one of the parents, found the photos and called the sheriff’s office and deputies went out there, impounded the photos and the case was assigned to me for investigation,” Zalva said. “I worked a long time on it, getting the kids identified.”

I just came to the thread to post that story from MSNBC, but WyrdeOne beat me to it.
This story just gets more strange.
If this is someone's idea of a joke, it's just sick to taunt a mother like that.
The story said the pictures were taken into police custody before Johnny Gosch was kidnapped. If that's true, how is it that someone had copies to leave on her doorstep ?
Gosch's mother and several other people received the photos the last weekend in August, which prompted local and federal authorities to pursue them as a new lead in the long-cold case.
Noreen Gosch told the Des Moines Register shortly afterward that she found copies of the photos on her doorstep the morning of Aug. 27. However, e-mail files of photos that she forwarded to a former New York detective who had been helping her with the case show she had received them by Aug. 26.
National media attention that has ensued since the photos' discovery led to an anonymous tip out of Tampa, Fla., that the images were actually related to an old police investigation there.
Zalva said sheriff's officials were combing today through hundreds of archives in Tampa to find police records tied to the case.
West Des Moines police spokesman Jeff Miller said they were waiting for confirmation from Zalva.

- The photos of bound and gagged boys that were sent to an Iowa woman whose son disappeared 24 years ago were investigated in the late 1970s and are not her missing son, a retired Florida sheriff’s investigator said Wednesday.

“I remember this case,” he said. “I identified the kids portrayed in the photos. It was definitely investigated by me several years prior to the disappearance of Johnny Gosch.”
