- The Franklin child prostitution ring allegations began in June 1988 in Omaha, Nebraska and attracted significant public and political interest until late 1990, when separate state and federal grand juries concluded that the allegations were unfounded and the ring was a "carefully crafted hoax." In 1988, authorities looked into baseless allegations that prominent citizens of Nebraska, as well as high-level U.S. politicians, were involved in a child prostitution ring. Alleged abuse victims were interviewed, who claimed that children in foster care were flown to the East Coast of the United States to be sexually abused at "bad parties". The claims primarily centered on Lawrence E. King Jr., who ran the now defunct Franklin Community Federal Credit Union in Omaha, Nebraska, and alleged that the ring was "a cult of devil worshipers involved in the mutilation, sacrifice and cannibalism of numerous children". Numerous conspiracy theories evolved, claiming that the alleged abuse was part of a widespread series of crimes including devil worship, cannibalism, drug trafficking, and CIA arms dealing. The Nebraska State Foster Care Review Board submitted the results of a two-year investigation into the alleged physical and sexual abuse of foster children to the Executive Board of the Nebraska Legislature, who were investigating reports of child sexual abuse linked to the credit union. After investigation, a grand jury in Douglas County, where Omaha, Nebraska is situated, determined the abuse allegations were baseless, describing them as a "carefully crafted hoax" and indicting two of the original accusers on perjury charges. The grand jury suspected that the false stories originated from a fired employee of Boys Town, who might have "fueled the fire of rumor and innuendo" because of personal grudges. A federal grand jury also concluded that the abuse allegations were unfounded and indicted 21-year-old Alisha Owen, an alleged victim, on eight counts of perjury. Owen served 4+1⁄2 years in prison. Separately, the federal grand jury indicted multiple officers of the credit union for embezzlement of funds, including King. Historian Philip Jenkins has explored how cases such as the Franklin allegations can acquire credibility, even if they lack any credibility inherently, when reported in various media in a credible voice. He also explored how such allegations can be seized on by political opportunists for their own purposes. (en)

- Il caso Franklin, (noto in inglese come Franklin child prostitution ring allegations, ovvero "accuse sul giro di pedofilia di Franklin") è un caso di presunta pedofilia nato a seguito di una serie di accuse verso personalità di spicco degli Stati Uniti d'America tra il 1988 e il 1991, accuse che furono ritenute false in sede giuridica. Politici statunitensi di alto rango e importanti cittadini del Nebraska furono accusati di far parte di un presunto gruppo di pedofili. Le più gravi accuse si concentrarono contro Lawrence E. King, direttore della Franklin Community Federal Credit Union di Omaha (fallita nel 2001), e importante figura politica locale. La giuria considerò tali dichiarazioni false e le due presunte vittime furono condannate per falsa testimonianza. Una di esse, Alisha Owen, fu condannata a una pena compresa fra 9 e 15 anni di prigione, scontandone alla fine 4 e mezzo. Lo storico ha evidenziato come il caso Franklin, analogamente ad altre vicende, sia stato sfruttato per scopi politici. Sempre Jenkins nota come il caso, intrinsecamente privo di credibilità, abbia invece acquisito credibilità tra le persone a causa dei mass media che continuavano a parlare della vicenda. Diverse teorie complottistiche continuano a esistere attorno alla vicenda, coinvolgendo di volta in volta riti satanici, cannibalismo, traffico di droga, la CIA e l'amministrazione Bush. (it)
