- A child goes out one night with friends and is never seen alive again. One teenager's killers kept a secret for more than 40 years. "48 Hours" correspondent Richard Schlesinger gives a preview of the newly-solved case.
All for a girl?? That’s some b.s
big pimpin He said it could be!
Nike Fällen He said it could’ve been because of a girl! If it was then that is childish
Lord Voldemort never said “it could be” soooo.....
big pimpin Okay! Let me double check!! Then I will come back.
Lord Voldemort ok!
So a couple of 17-year old’s killed a 15-year-old boy over jealousy? 😮 wow!
Amberielle T what is wrong with people. It disgusts me
Yeah , that’s just messed up
It's honestly scary , I'm scared something like this could happen to someone else.
xnixrixx Depending on where, we have a lot of cameras etc that could piece the people that did it quicker but honestly in this day and age I’m scared for children everywhere.
This is just one case, things like this happen all the time.
That poor woman has suffered so much.
God bless the family. RIP John.😟🙏
It's so Sad
Shut up Jimo, this comment was about the mom.
Jimo- are we talking about the father? No. We are talking about the mother
It doesn’t matter who we’re talking about here. Both parents suffered a lot!
Would have been 65 this year ,sad.
*55
No, 65 is correct
how would it be 65 years if 1969 + 65 is 2034. 1969 + 50 is 2019. i pretty sure its been 50 years
Edit: ok thx for telling me that he was 65 when killed. no need to comment it 1000 times again, because i realized it 3 months ago👍🏾Take care
Alice wonderland he or she is talking about his age 🤦🏾♀️ damn
Yami Yamee well excuse tf outta me🙄
the girl who they were “fighting” over probably feels horrible. this hurts
@D Barnes true
@Revolução Comunista yes because people never get killed in other countries over women. girlfriends, ect.
The same thing happened over near my town at a school by a bay. A senior who was fun and would hang out with the freshman's was murdered by a group of teenage boys because a girl wanted his ex-boyfriend to teach him a lesson.
faz arminha que passa happens more in other countries dude
This is America
How just how do people live with their wicked hearts!?!?
They are sociopaths. Have no empathy or conscious. They might on the surface but it is a facade. They are not like normal people.
@@delorashepard511 nothing normal about them. Nothing!!
It could have been an accident. He said they got carried away.😢😞
Welcome to real life
They're sociopaths. They have no heart. They're not like you or me.
Her tears and grief are still so raw so many years later 😥
Grief has no time limit.
My uncle passed in a car accident at the age of 19, and my grandmother grieved every day until the day she died, at the age of 83.
Grief doesn't stop, we just learn to cope with it or hide it better.
Woah...I’m sorry for your loss...your right,we need to be strong.
OK, so the man came forward and admitted 'being there' when the boy was murdered by two others. Were the two others caught?!
A B thank you.
@A B I was looking for this link. Thanks!
Is this link still working?
Click bait!
I hope so
Dispute between teenagers, he's bound and gagged?
Justin Lambert why
People are so weird when it comes to hurting others, it really reveals how wicked humans can be
They were probably imitating what they had seen on tv shows.
Those teenagers had to be psychopaths, I wonder if they'd killed anyone else. That's awful

Rest In Peace John McCAbe.
Blake Adams, he was such a nice looking young man with a beautiful smile. His poor mom!

Mom is still heartbroken.😪
She died years back
Everyday she would of thought about her son visiting her and all the great things he could and would of been

Please keep a close eye on him

@M Detlef Imagine trying to call someone out when you know nothing about their life
@M Detlef ure stupid.
@@cake532 im stupid
Sweetest most dedicated mother. I couldn't stop tearing up. God bless that woman. I'm so glad that she found out what happened to her son. Never finding out is always the worst.
Rhonda Hanna Well she died not too long after btw
finding out is also bad, especially if the death is drawn out
She is finally with her son.
They made a mother cry for 40 years, they have no afterlife worth anything
There is no afterlife. Dont put your hopes on that
@@lil_weasel219 Please do not be disrespectful towards people's religon.
@@retrospace2150 its a theory
It's the fox! Let’s respect others please if you want ti be respected. Thank you
It's the fox! You’ll know whether there is one or not when your soul will be awakened and you’ll be standing naked in front of your Lord and My Lord. We pray that Allah guides you to the straight path. Ameen.
So 2 other students did this, not some random drifter, and the local police couldn't get to the bottom of it. Wonder if the 2 others were someone's sons....hmm. and u can't tell me the girl in question didn't know.
The girl in question? The sister? She sounds like she knew something or heard something about her brothers death tbh.
@@DABASS-yt2iy not sister. The story said it was jealousy over a girl. That girl must have known about the friction and something had to have happened at the dance prior to the fight leading to his death.
@@mikemcgrath6150 true true. I need to watch the whole story to find out if they have gotten the 2 boys what happened to the one that finally came forth and so forth.
@@DABASS-yt2iy it doesn't add up. Either these teenagers were extremely well planned and disciplined to keep this thing quiet or the police r completely incompetent or someone hushed it up. Poor lady agonized for decades not knowing what happened to her son.
Of course a male is finding some way to blame a female for other males behavior stfu
Imagine if his killers are in this comment section. This is so disgusting. Can’t believe this is the world we live in.
this happened like 200 years ago

Glad this man finally came forward. Hope the young boys mama was alive to find this out. 🌺
Right it's crazy
She is
I am so glad she is. She’s is a wonderful lady. No one should have a child die (I have experienced this), but to not know why or where is horrifying. She is a beautiful strong women. 🌸🦋
He actually went back on his statement after being pressured by the killers attorney.
Wdym you experienced this
I feel so terrible, really. He finally got the girl he wanted, imagine your crush accepting your confession, only to be murdered by bullies for his happiness. Jealousy can go a long way. It's such a shame a hamdsome boy like him had to have his life ended so quickly by something so, so petty. Rest in peace, John Joseph McGabe.
john was so handsome :(
Jeanne D’arc so that’s what you care about???
aa_x52iii -F smh, of course Jeanne D’arc cares about him you uncultured swine, she’s just grieving and said “he was so handsome” meaning he was such a sweet and handsome boy to be taken away at such a young age.
@@satinluva-4302 oh shut up you big donut; people are allowed to compliment someone.
they might've also been jealous of his looks too. you never know
I did not know that saying someone is/was handsome was such an offending statement. 😂
@@mesmericmichelle lol "big donut"
Thats so cute, i smiled 😅
Bless them both but did they ever find who killed him and that man who was there he should go to prison not saying anything for 40 years
Reporting what he saw would lead to the loss of another family member or his own life included
*Imagine you’re a kid, you’re going to the park with your friends, while you play around as pirates or role played as stranded children. And while you explore the land nearby, you come across a body of a teenager, a rope around his neck, lifeless and pale. Growing up, you still remember the mental image of the missing teenager, and it haunts you. Forever.*
I feel like youre talking about yourself and im sorry
Those poor kids who found him must’ve been scarred for life
They need a therapist
@@kevinkevin9630 therapy doesn’t erase trauma / haunting memories
So, what justice was served? Did the other two boys get prison time? Did that scumbag who finally confessed get time in prison?
No i don't think the man who confessed went to jail
No. The guy who confessed was innocent. He kept his mouth shut for fear of his life
What a beautiful kid !
0:31 they said he died September 26 1969 and now it’s September 26 2019 it’s been 50 years- half of a century
Some people can give their child up, neglect them but this Mother cared so much, mourned her son for over 40 years never getting a full night's sleep. An amazing woman for loving that much. I'm sorry for your pain!
may Allah never let any parent go through what they went for over 40years 😭😭
Yes ;( ameen
ameen😭
There is no Allah
emaan zulfiqar amen
@@taylormanson3437 that is what you believe 🤷♀️
This is something straight off of Cold Case. People are disgusting
Yes
The poor mother. Heartbreak never heals. Never ever. Time doesn’t heal wounds, it only makes us become used to the feeling.
His mother 💔 hasn’t slept properly since.. bless her heart; I hope she finds piece :((
Self Raising Sugar ❤️
I can't believe people could live with that guilt for so long
He was such a pretty boy. :(
Humans are vile.
The poor mom.."he got all spruced up" 😪
I dont even know how how furious I am thinking they still have the heart to live after killing someone . I hope they live with guilt for an eternity.
Her Yelling John! Makes my Heart Break
I feel really bad😔
She went looking for him nearly an hour of her son being late what a caring mother feel so sorry for her
My wife says John's mum's prayers were answered, as the conscience of a man, finally told the truth. Still there's nothing worse than loosing your child.😰
God Bless John and his Devoted Mother Evelyn 🙏🏻
Rest in Peace John.
So sad ! A wonderful dignified mum and family God bless you all x
Rest in eternal peace young John. 🌹❤🌹
This man is now 60 years old, rest in peace man
Aw his mum, such a sweet lady. Didn't ever deserve this 😭
Idk why, but to me, it looked like the bystander who “confessed” looked like he was smirking/ grinning. That part pist me off so much.
40 years of bleeding heart.
If it's not too painful? Seriously, she lost her son and you ask her that?
kimmy cuthbert 40 years ago
@@beyoncebop198 yeah but still its painful
It's a news show they are going to ask her questions....
It's just a polite expression
You know what’s scary I have a friend who looks exactly like him and he’s 15 it’s weird
Reincarnation takes place half a century as usual. Dont be surprised. Consider it evidence you and I hold on to. Which the masses won't believe.
The amount of pain for that mother...you never forget your child...
when the reporter says “if it’s not too painful,” 🥺
It's sad because he didn't get to live the rest of his life 😔😢💔
Over a GOT DANG GIRL you took a moms child away from her for a girl that didn’t even like you he is gonna rot in jail
R.I.P to the little boy
who else became sad when she said that she didn’t have a full night of sleep since he went missing
he looks like he would of grown up and be a great man. but some stupid murderer freaking killed him.
What parent couldn't relate to those sleepless times when you know a teen has left somewhere & should be home but is not.....?
Ikr.
I'm 30 seconds in and I'm already bawling that poor woman...
I feel so horribly for her I can only imagine what she has went through Please let this give her some relief
Why is this on everyone’s recommended 4 years after
I’m glad the mother was still alive to see her son killers💔!
This man never says anything until now?!?!
God bless her. That was too long for her to suffer. Grateful she was able to see this resolved before she joined her baby in Heaven. 🙏🏾😢 Strong mother. Rest In Peace, John.
The sad thing is that now a days even your best friend would do that.. Then to think bout an"enemy"
Wow. Ty. For. Finally. Coming. Forward
Thanks always to the people with the foresight to preserve evidence. Seemingly relevant or not. The people who adamantly pursue these cases. The people who look at a cold case and get it in their teeth and shake it. And to the loved ones and survivors…some comforts if you are still waiting…or one heck of a blessed reunion on the other side🌹
I love boys who has freckles, he's cute c:
This is very sad 😭😭 Poor woman 💔
*was
*B r u h*
...
"omg sksks this person died but ummm I love boys with freckles and uhh hes kinda cute Xd :)))"
Should I be disgusted
That’s so sad I feel so bad for him and his family 😭❤️
Can't imagine what what this mom went through.....our worse nightmare is the lose of your child.....and thought of someone hurting and killing a child
It’s heartbreaking hearing her talk about him. A mother’s love is unmatched.
the mother is so sweet this is such a sad story
Damn that kid was cute. Rest in power John
The pain of losing a child is unimaginable
People should love one another and not hurt anyone.
Dab instead of bad
He was on the cops radar 4 over 40yrs & yet he still had to come in & confess while the cops are barking up the wrong tree
Its really sad how this world is. Very disgusting . I wouldn't want my child growing up in this cruel world.
Here I was cursing myself because I passed up on a top uni a year ago and my situation now seems infinitely small compared to what his mother went through for 40 years. Strength to her, I hope she found peace.
Johnny was our paperboy. I was only 6, but I still remember him clearly. He was a good kid who always stopped to talk with me ans my friends even though we were younger. He made us laugh and then one day my mom and dad sat my brother and I down to tell us Johnny would not be our paperboy anymore. They told us he was killed but spared us the details. I remember crying because he was so nice to us. I still remember his friendly freckled face joking with us.
The poor mother my prayers are with her 🙏🙏🙏
John was so handsome. This is so sad
I recall reading about this in the paper last year. His mom's pain broke my heart.
they were jealous because he got the girl and so they KILLED HIM? his family has been grieving for 40 years . that’s so sick
Does anyone know the update vedio to this phrase. I feel so so much for the poor mother
What a sweet looking spirit - those freckles
Wow I found it hard to watch the whole video,it left me in tears😢😭😢😭😪
That's just devastating.
I swear these things only happen in North America
Or is it just me?
Tea 19 It can happen anywhere. Not just North America
I agree, but honestly, it happens a lot in Asia like Pakistan..
This is just disgusting what they did to him.
Tea 19 nah America in general
@shortxstuff that's a better answer
such a gorgeous boy lost so soon over some jealous scumbags. may johns beautiful soul rest in peace 🕊
Remember in kindergarten when you're taught to "Keep your hands to yourself", "hitting is wrong", "use your words not your fists", "no means no"? Me too.
Apparently monsters/criminals/predators/perps didn't go to kindergarten.
Or just any schooling and common sense in general.
what pisses me off is they killed him as if the girl doesn’t get to decide who she goes with.
The poor family. I feel so bad for the mother. Makes me want to cry and beat someone up at the same time..
wait how do u get “ carried away “ and not realize u killed someone ?
It said they gagged him and wanted to teach him a lesson, so I'm guessing they tried to strangle him, and make him pass out. But, they didn't know the limitations and accidentally killed him.
the fact that they took a life for something that is so trivial and even petty is just-
How can people be so sick, my heart goes out for the mother
Off course he got the girl! He was handsome and probably kind hearted. Plus, you can see the pain in her mother’s eyes...
2:54 he had been on police radar for 40 years.....they zeroed on him for 40 years....seriously?
@Jose Adame my point is different....no way for 40 years they were working continously....surely not.
R.I.P.
How very sad and disturbing that anyone would even think to do this to someone else.
Breaks me because he would have had a loving family to this day. He would have had a family and would’ve experienced so much but didn’t get to just because he got the girl. God all of us humans are trash.
15 so that’s how they should look like . Now a day they look like adults
*I don't feel bad for her*
Said no one ever.
The world is so scary now and then. I’m scared to even go outside a little
I can't imagine the pain in his mother's heart ..
at that age boys are so glorious and nice with their mothers ..
he didn't even grow up. to get out of the house yet ..
I hope got give her heart peace .. 😭😭😭
