+Dyer Grossman served as a key figure in child exploitation networks during the 1970s. He associated closely with [[Francis Shelden]] in establishing organizations for child procurement. He operated through [[The Church of New Revelation]], a New Jersey-based entity created solely on paper to gain tax-exempt status for affiliated programs. Grossman hailed from a wealthy Long Island family and worked as a science teacher at an exclusive New York boarding school for boys.[^1]
+
+### Role in Operations
+Dyer Grossman co-drafted the incorporating charter for [[Brother Paul’s Children’s Mission]] after traveling to Michigan to meet [[Gerald Richards]]. This charter enabled the mission to function as a non-profit subsidiary of his fabricated church, facilitating the transport of boys to [[North Fox Island]] for exploitation. Grossman corresponded with Richards on establishing foster homes in Michigan to house runaways and problem children for government payments, explicitly noting the financial benefits of such arrangements.[^1]
+
+### Connections
+Dyer Grossman connected directly with [[Francis Shelden]] as a principal in [[Brother Paul’s Children’s Mission]], both sought by state and federal authorities on criminal sexual conduct charges. He collaborated with [[Adam Starchild]] in linking the mission to [[The Church of New Revelation]]. Grossman procured a 12-year-old boy through a Big Brother program, describing him as innocent and planning camping trips to alter that status, while the church linked to operations at [[Father Bud's Boys Farm]] run by [[Cladius Vermilye]].[^1]
