Trying to remember case - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I saw a case a while back, on Lifetime Women, where I guess it was a shed or something, and the mom let the boys go out there and play, and I guess someone set a fire. I'm not sure if the boys died in the fire or were missing but whoever set it hadn't been caught.

I thought I googled for information about it and couldn't find anything, but maybe someone remembers what I'm referring to. This must have been in '80s or '90s, and the mother was still hoping to solve the case, and the police were pretty much giving up.

Can't wait til SPIKE airs these shows, and puts updates on stories. Because I google and can never find some of these missing people, or stories on them, like they don't even exist.

that would be Scott Johnson and a friend of his that went unnamed. Sadly, they both died. This occured in 1974 and aired May 20, 1992.

Some portion of the story was still unsolved though,maybe the person who did it. Because it is 'unsolved mysteries', heh.

yes, it is still not known for certain whodunit, although they did have a very good idea who one of the two guys was, who went unnamed in the segment.

I was just wondering if there was an update. It is 2007 now and all.

I haven't found any updates to this story. As far as I know it's unsolved.

. I wish more of the cases could be solved. Some of them are so sad. And we have to wait until fall 2008 for any more from the show.

actually, ever since I went through and starting compiling my list of cases with updates, I disovered that a pretty good proportion of cases that could realistically be solved, have been. If you take out the paranormal and miracles and just look at the strictly criminal or missing cases, alot of them were solved. Everyday I am still finding updates to stories that have been solved.
