Her son Donald, who was openly gay, was a "close friend" of Obama. Mrs. Young also believes the Chicago Police Department Barack Obama Gay Story Surfaces Again

Norma Jean Young revealed to The Globe that her son Donald, who was openly gay, was a "close friend" of Obama. Mrs. Young also believes the Chicago Police Department has not placed a high priority on finding the killers of her son. Mrs. Young, who is, herself a former employee of the Chicago Police Department, told The Globe that, "There is more to the story," adding, "I do believe they are shielding somebody or protecting someone."

The Globe's revelations are consistent with information obtained by WMR during a May investigation conducted in Chicago. On May 24, WMR reported:"President Obama and his chief of staff Rahm Emanuel are lifetime members of the same gay bath house in uptown Chicago, according to informed sources in Chicago's gay community, as well as veteran political sources in the city." The report added, "WMR spoke to several well-placed sources in Chicago who reported that Jeremiah Wright, the pastor of Obama's former church of 20 years, Trinity United Church of Christ (TUCC) on Chicago's south side, ran what was essentially a matchmaking service for gay married black professional members of the church, including lawyers and businessmen, particularly those with children. The matchmaking club was called the 'Down Low Club' but references to it over the phone and email simply referred to the group with the code phrase 'DLC.' The ruse, according to our sources, was to make anyone who was eavesdropping on the communications [FBI wiretaps in the Rod Blagojevich case likely contain such references] believe that the references were to the Democratic Leadership Council, also known as the DLC . . . Among the members of the gay 'DLC' were Obama and TUCC's choir director, Donald Young, an openly gay man who reportedly had a sexual relationship with Obama. Two other gay members of the church were Larry Bland and Nate Spencer. Young and Bland were brutally murdered, execution style, in late 2007. Bland was murdered on November 17, 2007 and Young on December 24, 2007. The latter was killed by multiple gunshot wounds. Spencer reportedly died on December 26, 2007, official cause of death: 'septicemia,pneumonia, and HIV.'"
