Milk Carton Kids

On a Sunday morning in 1982, in Des Moines, Iowa, Johnny Gosch left
his house to begin his usual paper route. A short time later, his
parents were awakened by a phone call – it was a neighbor — their
paper hadn't come. His would be the first face of a missing child
ever printed on a milk carton. This story comes to us from reporter
Annie Brown and our friends at 99% Invisible. We're on the road
