And how did his attempt to report Jill missing lead to an Atlantic City detective providing him with a case number that he would later discover didn’t exist? What should have been a straightforward step in the search for Jill became another obstacle in a case already filled with unanswered questions.Join Jack and Tracey as they revisit the efforts to have Jill officially recognized as missing, the roadblocks they encountered along the way, and why cooperation between law enforcement, families, researchers, and the public can be critical in bringing long-cold cases back into the light.   In this episode, Jack and Tracey:• Detail the long journey to officially have Jill Lynn Rosenthal declared missing • Recount their troubling experience with the Atlantic City Police Department  • Discuss the importance of collaboration between law enforcement and the public in missing-persons investigations • Offer a first look at the mission behind the Jack and Jill Rosenthal Foundation for Missing and Unidentified Children💬 Share your reactions 🔔 Subscribe for new Season 5 episodes 📺 Watch full episodes on YouTube ⭐ Join as a Patreon member for extra bonus content📲 Connect on:  Instagram | TikTok | Facebook | Threads | thefronczakfiles.com | jjrf.org The Fronczak Files is the mouthpiece of The Jack and Jill Rosenthal Foundation for Missing and Unidentified Children.
