Hi, Crime Junkies. Ashley Flowers here and I am back with the second part to the North Fox

Island and Oakland County Child Killer conspiracy. Now, if you haven't listened to last week's

episode, stop right here and go back. You will be totally lost otherwise. But for those of you who

did listen last week, here's a quick refresher. In the late 1970s, two big events were happening

almost simultaneously. The first is that a camp for troubled boys was busted in northern Michigan

and found to actually be a hub for child pornography and sex trafficking. Only one of the men responsible

was ever in prison and has served less than 10 years. The other men responsible fled and lived

out their lives in other places and no real manhunt was done to apprehend them. Meanwhile, 300-mile

south, four kids were abducted and murdered in the affluent neighborhoods around Detroit, Michigan.

The killings became known as the Oakland County Child Killings. There were a couple of suspects early

on and after one of them died under very suspicious circumstances, the Oakland County Child Killer

Task Force was a disbanded. But just because that suspect was dead didn't mean that he was gone

from the investigation. His name would keep coming up and the search for answers into who murdered

these four children would become much more complicated. All right, now that you're caught up,

let's jump in to part two.

Through the entire time of the police's investigation into the Oakland County Child Killer,

keep in mind that all of the families were kind of kept in the dark about suspects.

Like, for example, they had never heard Chris Bush's name or Greg Green's name,

which in the early days is pretty standard for an investigation. Like, you want to keep the

family abreast of the fact that you're working on the case and maybe give them some updates.

But police wouldn't necessarily name every single suspect to the family.

But since the families didn't know about Chris Bush, they also didn't know that back when
