Franchesca Cheka Alvarado was 22 and living in Philadelphia’s Hunting Park when she traveled to Atlantic City over St. Patrick’s Day weekend in 2012. She went with an older acquaintance, Tracy Williams, and left behind her 3-year-old daughter, Janiah, and plans to start criminal justice classes. Family members say her sudden silence after the short trip did not fit her character.

Williams later told investigators that Franchesca left or separated from him around 2 a.m. and said she would find her own way back to Philadelphia; other reports place her last known area near Resorts Casino Hotel or the Borgata. Initial searches turned up nothing, but in August 2013 a fisherman found a foot in an Adidas high-top at Corson’s Inlet State Park in Ocean City, New Jersey. DNA confirmed the remains were Franchesca’s; additional bones were recovered but much of her body was never found and the family never received a clear cause of death.

No arrests have been announced. The roommate and a former boyfriend have also been mentioned in inquiries, but no public charges tie anyone to her death. If anyone has information about Franchesca’s movements in Atlantic City that night, please share what is known.
