INFAMOUS: The Paul Fronczak Story
Jack Rosenthal spent his life believing he was Paul Fronczak, a little boy kidnapped from a Chicago hospital in 1964 when he was just one day old. But a single DNA test in 2012 revealed that not only is he not the kidnapped baby, he has a twin sister, Jill, whose fate remains unknown. Jack learns that his true story is one of potential abuse, neglect, and an apparent attempt to cover it all up. And that fateful test left him with two questions: Where is Jill? And who is the real Paul Fronczak?
