The Shadow of CORRUPTION | The Fronczak Files S4 Ep. 5

Corruption. Conspiracy. Lies.

In this episode of The Fronczak Files, Jack and Tracey take a deeper look at Marlin Johnson, the head of the FBI’s Chicago office and the principal investigator in the kidnapping of Paul Joseph Fronczak. But Johnson’s story stretches far beyond the walls of Michael Reese Hospital. His name was tied not only to one of Chicago’s most infamous kidnappings, but also to the Chicago Outfit, power criminals, and whispers of corruption inside law enforcement itself.

Why was the head of the FBI leading the Fronczak kidnapping investigation? Why did a famous mobster sue Marlin Johnson? And what was really happening inside Chicago’s FBI office during the 1960’s?

Join Jack and Tracey as they pull the curtain on one of Chicago’s most well-known law enforcement figures, and the shadow of corruption surrounding the case.

In this episode, Jack and Tracey:

• Examine Marlin Johnson’s role in the Paul Joseph Fronczak kidnapping

• Explore the FBI’s complicated relationship with the Chicago Outfit

• Question whether corruption may have shaped the course of the investigation
