Corbin said Thursday that he has been in contact over the past two years with a man who claims to have been kidnapped as a child and to have broken away from a child-sex ring with Gosch. He said the man identifies himself as Jimmy Gibson and has told him he wants to speak publicly about their kidnappings after hiding out for years from abductors.
An official from the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children said the center had no record of an abduction of a Jimmy Gibson, although the boy may have been listed under a similar name.
Way back of thread I posted a comment from the Des Moines Register blog comments wherein a "Jimmy Gibson" claimed to be the source of the photos: "Hi my name is Jimmy Gibson. I am writing you to tell my side of the recent development.
About 3 weeks ago I recieved 3 photos to my email, I do not know who sent them nor do I know where they came from, it was a anom email account probably sent froma proxy server. I was quite shocked when I saw them and debated on wether I should send them to Noreen Gosch or not. Yes the photos indeed look like it could be Johnny Gosch but like everything in this world you are never really sure. So I thought about it for a while and then I edventually sent them to a contact of Noreen Gosch, Tim White who has been working with her on this case. I went back to the email and looked and one of the images was not an actual copy but a image linked pic. So I traced the image back to the url (Which appears below)"
"I only emailed them to Tim White and Michael Corbin. As far as the images being found on Noreen’s doorstep I have not a clue.
From what I know, Tim White emailed them to everybody he could think of, Decamp/Gosch and so on and who knows how many other people. I believe Mr. White blew this whole thing out of proportion and acted irresponsible"
I assume the current Jimmy Gibson denies having authored that posting? If so, who does he believe has impersonated him and to what purpose would that be done?
AMERICA'S MOST WANTED INTERVIEW OF JIMMY GIBSON IN 1992
Jimmy stated that he had escaped with Johnny from the pedophile ring and sought refuge with his parents. Jimmy was a runaway that got caught up in the same ring that Johnny was kidnapped into. Jimmy showed the rocking X brand he had received while in the ring to Noreen and the America's Most Wanted producers; many other boys were branded like cattle with this rocking X logo to torture them and mark them for life so they could be identified by this distinctive mark. A brand like this is registered with a ranch in Colorado. This mark can also be seen on Johnny in one of the photos that Noreen received in August 2006.
Noreen is contacted by a young man named Jimmy Gibson who had been a runaway kid that got caught up in the same pedophile ring that kidnapped Johnny. Jimmy gave Noreen details about the ring that offered the sexual services of the boys to wealthy and politically connected men. He showed Noreen the “rocking X” brand on his leg that was burned into the boys to torture them and threaten them with permanent identification if they ever thought of escaping. Jimmy escaped with Johnny and found shelter at his parent’s home for a short time after their escape. When the America’s Most Wanted producer found out about Jimmy and the information he had, the show did a follow up story and interviewed him masking his face from identity.
