Jill Catshall case drives Nebraska grand jury bid
In fall 1988 Jill Catshall’s disappearance spurred Jill’s mother Joyce Catshall to collect signatures for a grand jury, seeking accountability after police delays. David Phelps faced abduction charges. Baumgartner was not charged. Joyce vows to persist until Jill is found, while critics say police work was intense but flawed.
