Did you read the article? It doesn't use the word testify, but the father said:
"Before christian went disappeared he had been exploited by some adults who had a child sex pornography ring," Michael said. "So nine months after he disappeared a DC detective who said was working with conjunction with the FBI was questioning me trying to find Christian and another group of boys to use as witnesses to solidify their case against these adults what's strange and scary is that he couldn't find any of these boys."
I know...there's barely any info. The article reads like a normal missing persons article but then BAM, random quote from father about a pedo ring connection. Can we chalk it up to poor quality news journalism?
...it's not poor journalism, it's a cover-up. Any reasonable person would have certain basic questions after hearing the dad's story. But, the JOURNALIST doesn't? Seems like this would be a great story for a real journalist.
While I feel like I agree with you...when you use cover up..what are they covering up? Because they've brought up the pedo ring idea within the article by transcribing the dad's quotes. So...in your opinion, what are they covering up?
Any clarification on your thoughts would be greatly appreciated. :)
The dad said that he'd been trying to get the news stations to run the story and pretty much no one would touch it (why?). It seems like they (media) threw him a bone (by way of this pathetic excuse for journalism article) so that he would shut the fuck up about his missing/dead son.

Who is the detective, who are the other missing boys, is there more info on what the father knows about the exploitation? So many questions...
A lacking article at least.

No, this is a cover-up, plain and simple.

A cover up in the sense that...?
