GUILTY NJ - Joseph Frankowski, 19, found dead on Atlantic City beach, 25 April 2008

A man was found dead in Atlantic City on the beach near The Pier At Ceaser's at 6:30 AM. Our local news just started to give the identity of this man, but they covered it. Heaven forbid I couldn't imagine if his next of kin haven't been notified.http://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/186/story/142321.html

Oh this is a 19 year old guy. What a sin. Joseph Frankowski of Somers Point was found under the pier at Ceasers. LE said it is a suspicious death.http://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/179/story/142913.html

Sorry, T I wasn't clear on that. It was that guy on channel 10 I think. Tim Lake and he went into the story on the news and said he's identified as and started to say the name but they bleeped it. Not bleeped but covered it how they do. I think maybe because he had just been identified and perhaps his next of kin weren't all notified. Sad isn't it, T? Somers Point I mean off season that can't be too populated so I'm sure everyone there knows this guy. BTW, you got Rehoboth, right? I used to love to stay there.

Joseph Frankowski was brutally murdered by two homeless men he had befriended. This poor kid was murdered with a broken bottle and blunt force trauma. The suspect have been under arrest.

This is so sad. This was just a kid. Days away from being 20 years old. RIP, young man.
