00:00:02,702 --> 00:00:04,771
In April 1964,

2
00:00:04,771 --> 00:00:08,108
a woman walked into a hospital in Chicago
pretending to be a nurse.

3
00:00:09,476 --> 00:00:12,479
She told a new mother
that a doctor needed to run some tests

4
00:00:12,679 --> 00:00:15,682
and stole her baby.

5
00:00:15,849 --> 00:00:18,184
The baby had been named Paul Fronczak,

6
00:00:18,184 --> 00:00:21,087
and his kidnaping shook the nation.

7
00:00:21,087 --> 00:00:23,189
It prompted a massive manhunt.

8
00:00:23,189 --> 00:00:25,492
Hospitals changed their policies.

9
00:00:25,492 --> 00:00:28,128
Families were torn apart.

10
00:00:28,128 --> 00:00:31,664
Maybe you're familiar with this story,
but you haven't heard it from me.

11
00:00:32,766 --> 00:00:34,768
I am Paul Fronczak,

12
00:00:34,768 --> 00:00:37,771
and together with my co-host
Tracey Hastings.

13
00:00:37,937 --> 00:00:40,940
I'm going to tell my story my way.

14
00:00:40,974 --> 00:00:44,377
