(Andy Ngo) April 10, 2025 – A Portland leftist radio host named Noah Madrano has been sentenced to 50 years in federal prison following a prosecution by the DOJ. He abducted a Canadian child, smuggled her to Oregon by hiding her in the trunk of his car, raped her repeatedly and made videos of the rape.

He was a radio host at “anti-fascism” station KBOO with co-host Karen Green. Madrano posted frequently online about support for BLM and his hatred of MAGA.

Madrano groomed the child online for over a year starting in 2021. In May 2022, he traveled to Edmonton, Canada, and sexually abused the child in a hotel. In June 2022, he abducted the girl outside her school and trafficked her to Oregon by hiding her in the trunk of his car.

In January this year, Madrano pleaded guilty to sexually exploiting a child and transporting a child with the intent to engage in criminal sexual activity. He was sentenced to 600 months in federal prison, a $5,000 fine and lifetime supervision.

(KGW 8) July 5, 2022 – The Edmonton Journal reported that Portland-based radio station KBOO-FM tweeted on Sunday that it had received “disturbing information regarding the behavior of an on-air volunteer that we had no knowledge of prior to this morning.” A subsequent tweet states that the station has taken “appropriate actions regarding this person’s involvement with KBOO.”

The tweets do not mention the name of the volunteer in question, but the Journal reported that Madrano was listed as a producer of a podcast that aired on KBOO, and that the since-deleted most recent episode featured a segment in which the host pretends to have phone sex with a teenage girl.

The Journal reported that it spoke to a KBOO official who said the station didn’t know about the segment before it aired, and that it had removed the episode from its platforms.

A LinkedIn page for a person named Noah Madrano lists him as the developer of a podcast that it says airs on KBOO. A Google search for the podcast’s name returns results pointing to a page on KBOO’s website, but the page appears to have been deleted.

KGW reached out to KBOO for comment, but has not yet heard back.

    Jason Remington says:

    Outside of his disturbing personal social media accounts, Madrano had a long relationship with KBOO radio lasting over a decade. He was a program committee chairperson for the station from 2012–14. His show, which launched in 2012, uses the slogan, “Making radio sound like a child’s play.”
