Who Were Frank Sinatra Jr.’s Kidnappers? Inside the Famous Case

At 19, Sinatra was just beginning his career as a singer. He was performing at the Harrah’s Club Lodge in Lake Tahoe, on the border between Nevada and California. At roughly 9 pm on Dec. 8, 1963, a man pretending to be a delivery man entered Frank Jr.’s dressing room, where he was hanging with a friend. The friend was duct-taped and tied up, and Sinatra was blindfolded and carried out a side door.
