After a young mother is murdered, her son unknowingly hangs the killer's photo on his wall. "48 Hours" contributor Jim Axelrod reports. Watch more full episodes of "48 Hours" on Pluto TV.
"In all my years of reporting for '48 Hours' I’ve never encountered anything as heartbreaking as a kid having a picture of his football coach on his wall - not knowing that the coach murdered his mother. The coach kept driving the kid to practice after the killing. The sheer, chilling sociopathy of the coach took my breath away." - Jim Axelrod on why the story is important.

The final, and REAL question, 48 Hours, should’ve been: “What do YOU think of the answer the Detectives made about NOT thinking they LET Joseph Mills slip away”? The answer by the male & female detectives at the end (NOT Brad or the Hero Fingerprint detective) but the last two was outrageous and the only answer for their allowing Mills to get away with this heinous crime was ingrained bias.

I really thought they would but there was an indication that they were on the defense & wouldn't admit to anything or take accountability was earlier in the video when they were asked 'how was Joseph mills not followed up on more aggressively'. The woman detective quickly jumped to minimize any inclination that he was a suspect by stating the exact reasons he should have been a suspect 😒 And no s!ht he wasn't on "their radar"...they already had an idea of what their perfect suspect looked like. Those detectives egos are way too big to be people of power in those positions they are so blessed to have.

Trusted him; looked up to him. How could that man even look at those boys and continue being their coach. And then, when caught, not even apologize?! A family man with his own kids and grandkids! They also have been tragically impacted. Just pure evil. And the man who took the prints. Though there was discrimination in those days, he still did his job well and continued to do so. Which is how one rids society of those racial prejudices. You show you are better than those who discriminate. It makes him a hero in the end.

Only the unintelligent would buy that story. Want actual facts? 1. They said that the detective did an exhaustive search of the scene, and found a handprint, no fingerprints. But a handprint means you don't need fingerprints. 2. For the first few weeks the investigation focused on three people, all of them white: The victim's A.ex-husband, B. boyfriend, and C.teenage son. All were eventually cleared. 3. At that point, it appeared very likely that this was a crime committed by a stranger, and not by someone known to the victim. 4. Several neighbors reported seeing an unknown black male nearby on the night she was murdered, so the investigation next turned to finding a black male who fit the description (height, weight, etc.) of the person described by neighbors. Every step along the way, that is exactly how an investigation is normally run. There was more reason at that point to suspect a random attacker seen in the neighborhood then there was to look elsewhere (once the first three were cleared).

My aunt was murdered in 1975 in Columbus Ohio and it has yet to be solved. My uncle and 2 cousins have gone to their graves not knowing who murdered their wife and mother. It's heartbreaking. Her name was Nancy Sells. Somebody somewhere knows something. If that is you please call the Columbus police dept.

@@ninachan8920 you got me wrong, i didn't and do not expect anything more from the producers, I was merely stating the fact that they had to quickly mention it . And yes the case and his own contributions and hard work thankfully was given credit. I was just expressing my disgust at the racist attitudes some minorities had to endure (and sometimes still have), while still considering it understandable that there was nothing to be done to address the matter further without compromising the main topic of the episode.

Knowing he was willing to lie at the very end when caught red-handed just shows he hadn't changed at all and was the same savage monster he was that night. If there had been the slightest change for the better, he would have claimed his guilt and given the family a sliver of peace. Instead, he tried to brutalize that woman's reputation like he brutalized her.

This case is sad. However, they overlook the fact that the case was mishandled by being racially profiled. The gentleman who lifted the print said how they were only giving him black men's prints to look at. Had the investigation been done correctly from the beginning by gathering every male that she had come in contact with from the beginning, the case would have been slove a lot sooner.
@jimwerther

That's nonsense - investigations focus on the best suspects, not foolishness. Here are the facts: 1. They said that the detective did an exhaustive search of the scene, and found a handprint, no fingerprints. But a handprint means you don't need fingerprints. 2. For the first few weeks the investigation focused on three people, all of them white: The victim's A.ex-husband, B. boyfriend, and C.teenage son. All were eventually cleared. 3. At that point, it appeared very likely that this was a crime committed by a stranger, and not by someone known to the victim. 4. Several neighbors reported seeing an unknown black male nearby on the night she was murdered, so the investigation next turned to finding a black male who fit the description (height, weight, etc.) of the person described by neighbors. Every step along the way, that is exactly how an investigation is normally run. There was more reason at that point to suspect a random attacker seen in the neighborhood then there was to look elsewhere (once the first three were cleared).
