In the early eighties middle America experienced tragedies that no parent could imagine, until it happened for the first time. Newspaper boys were disappearing. They would step out into the dark of the early morning hours to deliver the daily news to their neighborhoods and some of them did not return. It started in Iowa and then moved to Nebraska. Kids were plucked off the street just a few steps into their routes and some have vanished forever. The first boy gone was Johnny Gosch.
