Indigenous father brings story of missing and murdered daughter to UCCS.
Last year, the disappearance and murder of Gabby Petito drew mass media coverage and sparked national outrage — unlike many cases involving missing and murdered Indigenous people, including Nada Fronk.
On Nov. 7, the UCCS Criminal Justice Department hosted Nada’s father, Monte Fronk, for an event titled “HONORING Nada Fronk: A Native father’s experience with his missing and murdered Indigenous daughter.”
Monte Fronk is an emergency management coordinator for the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe in Minnesota who shares his daughter’s story to spread awareness of the national crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous people.
