Okay, thanks. Nice "church" insertion into the story. Important for the image, LOL.

Given that this was back in the 80s and Walsh was "well to do" from his hotel business, I am guessing COCAINE was probably the drug. I know he's a polo player. -- he has expensive tastes.

equineluvr - you might also be interested in researching the alleged missing fugitives too... for some reason the FBI somehow manage to find many of them in Mexico, or they believe they are hiding there. From my own research, I have many reasons to believe Walsh and the FBI are complicit in manufacturing the most wanted lists. I believe that many of them are really missing/abducted people who were set up.

This is HIGHLY UNUSUAL. Without fail, virtually ALL parents of missing/abducted/murdered children WANT to see their child "one last time." Evidently they need to see the REALITY and it is the first step toward "closure." The ONLY exception to this I have run across is the FAKE "parents" of the Sandy Hook "shooting" victims.

Now here is John Walsh stating that NEITHER HE NOR HIS WIFE saw the remains of the child that was IDed as their son Adam -

In Tears of Rage, Walsh wrote that he had never seen the remains -

“My wife, Reve, and I did not make all of these sacrifices ourselves. There were others who helped carry the burden. We did not respond, for example, to the particular request that I am about to relate. We were spared little over the whole course of events. But we were saved from this, at least. The request was for someone close to us, a friend. A family member would have been ideal, but was judged, ultimately, to be unwise. And so a friend, one who knew us well, went instead.”

They were "too busy" giving MEDIA INTERVIEWS. PRIORITIES, you know. Sounds just like the McCanns!

" The Walshes certainly weren’t at the Vero Beach morgue when the ID was made. They were in New York, where they had just appeared on Good Morning America to ask a national audience for help in looking for their missing son.

It was in the overnight hours when police first called them, at their hotel, and said that a dead child had been found the evening before. They didn’t know it was Adam, but at least to themselves, they felt pretty sure. I spoke to the show producer who told me she immediately offered to return the couple to Florida on the first flight out, but John turned it down. I also spoke to the show host, David Hartman, who told me he’d later offered the same thing. Instead, they went on the show that morning; "
