Etan Patz was just 6 years old when he disappeared from his Manhattan neighborhood in 1979. His disappearance helped in the establishment of new legislation and new methods for tracking missing children. He was the first child to be pictured on milk cartons. In 2010, Etan’s case was reopened. The case was tried in 2015, ending in a mistrial. Jury selection for a retrial is now under way. In this episode of TCB, we discuss Etan’s disappearance, the loss felt by his family, the suspects and the impending trial.
