In February nineteen eighty-seven, police in Tallahassee, Florida, found two well-dressed men with six dirty, hungry children in Myers Park. The adults were linked to the Finders, a secretive Washington-area communal organization centered around Marion David Pettie, a former Air Force master sergeant known to followers by names including the Stroller and the Game Caller. Within days, investigators searched Finders properties in Washington, D.C., and rural Virginia, seizing photographs, records, and computer equipment while early authorities and press accounts discussed allegations involving cult rituals, satanic practices, possible child pornography, kidnapping, and abuse.
The most extreme claims soon weakened. The children were identified as children of Finders families. No human remains were found at the Virginia property. Police did not substantiate satanic worship, and criminal charges against Douglas Ammerman and James Michael Holwell were dismissed for insufficient evidence. Custody and neglect concerns remained real, especially around supervision, hygiene, and education, but the broader criminal conspiracy was not established in court.
Years later, U.S. Customs Special Agent Ramon Martinez wrote that he had been told the Finders investigation was a CIA internal matter. Federal files later confirmed some genuine intelligence-adjacent facts: Marion Pettie’s wife had worked for the CIA, his son had an Air America association, and a company employing Finders members trained CIA personnel. A later federal inquiry did not establish a CIA-directed cover-up. The unresolved question is why a strange child-neglect case generated classified reports, redacted files, congressional pressure, and decades of suspicion.
