On a spring evening in 1979, gentle 15-year-old Sean McGann left his grandparents' home in Northampton to visit the local Easter fair... and never returned.
The next morning, his body was found strangled in a cobbled alleyway. His jacket and glasses were missing, eerie chalk graffiti reading "VERY SORRY" and "NO I'M NOT" was scrawled nearby, and a mysterious 1991 letter to his family claimed to know the killer.
This gripping documentary explores the full timeline: Sean's loving Irish Catholic family, the fairground visit, police focus on the gay community, football hooligans, a suspicious yellow Cortina, the tragic suicide of his best friend John Condon, and major 2019 appeals involving Sidney Cooke of the "Dirty Dozen." Decades later, the case remains unsolved.
Why has justice never been served? New forensic hopes and unanswered questions remain.
