This has to now surpass any record for the oldest kidnapping solved, while victim still alive
Yes, I bet it was!!! Unreal! Praise God!
AGREED!!!!
This probably the most tragic thing that can happen to a child. Being kidnapped and never seeing your family.
I wish I had been kidnapped as a child and raised by a normal family that cared about me.
And tragic for the kid’s parents et al
Being ripped away from your roots land and identity and then having your children rip away from you and sold to others like cattle is pretty much a traumatic traumatizing experience.
What an idiotic remark. Plenty of kids are kidnapped so young, they don't even realize they were abducted.
@@Manx123 if you say so Timmy
So glad he got to meet with his brother Roger before Roger passed.
I'm sure it was a Blessing to Roger to know his Brother was alive, He probably carried guilt that the baby was stolen when he should have been watching him at the park
This has to now surpass any record for the oldest kidnapping solved, while victim still alive
WHO KIDNAPPED HIM AND RAISED HIM? I mean I'm glad he's found but there's more to the story.
I know. Very unsatisfying story
Full story on you tube
More likely on the TV station's website
I am thinking the same thing as you ❤
I know I know it wanna know the rest
WOW! I'm so glad that he got to reconnect with his brother before he passed. Such an amazing story!
Who kidnapped him? Where was he raised. This brought more questions than answers.
He Is not interested in putting his Stories out there for his own privacy
Who do you think you are? You don’t have the right to a persons private life no matter how tragic it was for them, weirdos like grew up spoiled asf thinking your entitled to someone’s life.
As the previous person said, he is not telling his story. Most likely, because he doesn't want to put the spotlight on his "adoptive" family. I'll tell you what I read.
A woman spoke Spanish and used the promise of candy luring him with her when he was 6. She flew him to the east coast, where he was raised by a family. He said when he asked about his past, he was met with silence. That's all we know.
Sounds like a shady adoption. All who were involved are probably deceased. Any living relatives probably have nothing to do with the situation. I would also imagine that he suffers from some sort of Stockholm Syndrome.
I don't understand why he never looked up his old family. He was kidnapped at 6 so he no doubt remembered them. Unless the original family was in witness protection, I don't think it would have been too hard to track them down. I understand he doesn't want his story out everywhere & have the people who raised him attacked for it. However, they need to put some more details in on why he never tracked the family down in 70 years.
@@sigep145 they don’t need to do anything, your not entitled to his personal information.
The grief his mother and family must’ve felt is unspeakable but I’m glad his younger family members were able to locate him and reunite the brothers.
Who abducted him and why??
Exactly my question!!
Today’s journalism is pathetic. Real amateurs.
The story doesn't give this basic information?! Thanks for saving me the time.
right? where was he for 70 years
@@bigmonmagoomba9634 IKR!!
"BREAKING NEWS", but more info at 11:00😅
This is wild. I'm happy for them.
Who took him? How do they know whoever took him passed?
@@Lucylou7070I googled his name Luis Armando Albino). According to a news report I read it was a woman who spoke Spanish who kidnapped him after offering him candy. She flew him to the East coast where he was raised by a couple as their son.
We need a little back story. Etc
Very odd that they didn't say a word about the backstory.
@@anonz975like it's literally the only sensible answer. ON GAH
They sont, they are just happy they found him
WOW! I'm so glad that he got to reconnect with his brother before he passed. Such an amazing story!
This story is a bit disappointing. It’s like a teaser. I was really hoping for a little bit more info about what happened to who and why…
seems he was raised well and is protecting the people that raised him. And most likely financially well to do as he is not interested in taking money for his story.
I hope he was treated well
@@ccaruso8293 Me too - that was my first thought. 🙏❤️🩹
I think, he didnt wanted to go home and the person who abducted him was a relative(father) and hired someone. He could have called police for most of his years.
Exactly
@@RonaldoM-nw6jfhe was a young child. Things were very different back then. Kids didn’t have resources or social media like today.
@@RonaldoM-nw6jf You know the family?
Death penalty for child abduction.
Absolutely.
Not in america
Too late!
At 1:00 they show a picture of a boy being held by his father and say it’s 1940 but the boy was kidnapped at age 6 in 1951. That means he was born 1945 and can’t be featured in a photo that predates his birth by 5 years. The photo is probably dated 1946 and the “6” might look like a 0, if handwritten.
They say the photo was from 1940 but that predates the birth of the boy by 5 years. He was 6 years old in 1951, that makes him born in 1945. If the date on the photo is handwritten, it probably says 1946. The 6 may appear more like a 0 and that’s where the confusion is.
Holy moly, that is amazing.
After seventy years. Seventy long years they’re together again ❤️🙏🏾🌹 im so happy for them. Enjoy each other.
Amen. God is good. 🙏🏾
What an amazing reunion! Who abducted him? Who raised him?
A woman who wasted named raised him in NYC.
So, where the heck has he been?! Who abducted him and why?! Kind of a frustrating news story.
So happy for you and this happy finding of your lost relative. I was given to foster home when born, recently did a DNA test and found 9 brothers and two sisters and none of them wanted anything to do with me.
Same
@Bummerdrummer463 it's not always a sun-shiny reunion
@goaway apparently your parents were right.
@@GohAhweh I'm very sorry to hear this happened to you & to the person who replied to your comment. Idk the circumstances, but it's likely you were born into a very dysfunctional family & a very chaotic & unsafe environment. I hope that you're in a better place after this disappointment & that you don't blame yourself for their reaction to you finding them.
I've learned the hard way that shared bloodlines & even being raised around those we are related to doesn't make them family.
Sounds like they aren't nice people, unfortunately, but I hope u have a happy & blessed life 🙏🏼
What a wonderful relief for his brother who has been carrying the guilt, pain and shaming him, for what society etc. put on his little shoulders for not watching little brother close enough. They were kids.. God bless his heart 💕
Trust in the LORD forever; for in the LORD, the LORD, is an everlasting Rock.
Wow... What an emotional story
Lured away by a lady who then brought him to the East Coast and gave him to a couple who raised him. How terrifying.
Sounds like they were careful and kind.
They stole a child
Oh wow. That’s amazing. I’m happy for them.
I’m left with more questions???
70 years 😮😮
Who kidnapped Luis and why? Was that ever discovered? 🤔
Who took the kid how did he live for all these years? Where did he live? Who are the people or the people dead? I would assume they probably are I don’t understand why they do these kind of stories and they leave way too many questions answered.
Exactly it's ridiculous, they don't even deserve to be called news
Thank you for helping me to avoid wasting my time. I can't stand "news" stories like this.
It’s entirely possible they don’t have a clear idea what happened and it’s also possible the guy is being protective of the people who raised him and won’t give out much info. And like the news story said whoever abducted him has since died so there wouldn’t be justice in the traditional sense. It’s still quite an amazing story even if they don’t have all the answers.
@@batacumba like Stockholm Syndrome
@@susannefiore4338 very true, that could be a big part of why he might not say much about who raised him. I’m guessing maybe he was stolen by some shady person who sold him or adopted him out for a fee and his family were decent enough people but perhaps didn’t ask too many questions about where he came from. It would be interesting to find out but it’s not like these people owe us any info, if they want to keep it private that’s their business I suppose.
How wonderful!
I'm sure they would have asked her uncle all about who abducted him and who raised him... why was nothing said about this here?
This. And surely he remembered he was 6!
@@MeriysiI have no memories of my childhood. Zero.
@@Theleaddog That's a you problem, I remember the womb.
Clickbait is effective. If we're lucky they'll make a follow-up piece
@@dyslexicbatnam1350 that’s unfair to say. What makes you think that this man should remember his life as a six year old boy? What makes you think he should know what happened to him that day? Please elaborate a bit more.
wow so he knew he had been kidnapped but didn’t tell law enforcement as an adult???
That's not strange.
☕😐@@casandrala8370
That's strange.
There are a lot of reasons that could happen. Children are often told they were saved from their parents, their parents didn't want them, or sold them. They also often told that their whole family is dead or criminal. They're brainwashed.
There are many possible reasons, but given this news segment, none of them were explored.
BEAUTIFUL
The dead do not know what the living is doing, but I am glad the living found they way back to each other ❤.
Thank you. ❤
We live in Texas.. but a woman (67) years old here DNA was similar to mine.. her father was my great uncle 😮 she lived in California!!
Ok great Uncle means?? Your grandpa brother?
Wonderful story!!!
Terrible story!!! The crime remains unsolved. It's frustrating this does not include information about how his parents came to adopt him and _who_ that woman was.
Old people eat everything up😂
Something doesn't add up. The news anchor said the photo was taken in 1940 but the description says the boy was kidnapped in 1951 when he was 6 yrs old. That means he was born in 1945 so how is he in a picture taken in 1940?
I bet the pic is from 1950
I wonder if the teleprompter had a typo of 1940 instead of 1949.
I was confused by that, too.
Whole story could be horsepucky.
Blessings on their finding each other.
A God given miracle! Lovely story.
Not sure how God gets credit for them finding their uncle, but no blame for allowing him to be kidnapped in the first place, but I guess, whatever makes you feel good.
Neither of those exists, but it is surprising.
You explained this so well, thank you!
Wow!! This story could be a Lifetime movie. I would be interested to know more details. Im glad to hear Roger was able to unite with his brother before his passing💜💜💜
At least they got to see each other again.
Thank you for this heartwarming story.
If he was 6 years old in 1951, how could he be in a photo from 1940?
What happened to him…
Exactly! Why bother call the Media if they aren't going to say what happened. How do they know the person who kidnapped him is long since dead? I mean, write a book and do a press tour to make money. This is just dumb!
The Sun News has their story and pictures.
@@cast_cal Some people just don't want that.
@@cast_cal They know because they killed him in revenge and the media kept it quiet.
he was abducted by aliens 👽 and they returned him..... very sad
So sad. There just wasn't the technology to find him back then. I wish it hadn't taken so long. I wrote a story about a woman named Marjorie West who disappeared in 1938. She could still be alive.
Gives me hope my friend will be found, It has been 36 ours since he was taken.
This was super helpful, thanks!
Thanks for sharing this, learned a lot.
They found him 70 years later, and he is still a child? Unbelievable!
😂😂😂😂
Not to bright
@@Lisa-fw9rb You spelled 'to' incorrectly. It should be spelled like this, "Not TOO bright." And there should be a period after the word bright. So, not too bright, huh?
Now all we have to do is find the rest of the 8 million children that go missing in the world each year.
Terrible journalism.
Great reporting!
Fantastic explanation, thank you!
Wow!
Your videos are always so helpful, thank you!
That is a blessing frome god god is good
Ummm.... No rest of the story????
Exactly, so many questions... they just leave us with this 🧐🤔
70 year old child? Strange
God bless
Insane... how do you live after finding this out? You lived your entire life, probably unaware your family wasn't your real family. I need a book before Luis passes pronto.
God bless this Family ❤❤❤❤❤❤
You cannot even prove there is a god...
I guess Luis at age 6 was convinced by his abductor that it was all good and that his new home was the way it was meant to be etc. It would be very interesting to hear Luis tell about all that. His niece must know some of that but I guess they're not ready to share it with the public.
Who raised him? They need to be exposed for the kidnapping even if they have passed on.
OMG!!! After 70 YEARS!!! What A Blessing!!! AWWW…🙏🏽🫶🏻✌🏼
What did he say about being kidnapped?
You people need to figure out what news reporting actually means.
🧬 I took an online DNA test and made some amazing discoveries about my family. I have even been able to identify and connect to family separated by slavery. I can honestly the DNA tests can be lifechanging.
My twin brother was abducted after his birth, from the maternity hospital in Guatemala 71 years ago ago.
DNA testing isn't for everyone... but for adopted kids like me (my deceased biological father was also adopted) and cases like this... we have answers after decades and decades of less than nothing.
So Glad They Could Reconnect ❤❤❤
What a wonderful story of family never giving up 🆙 hope to find their uncle! Praise God for this blessing ♥️♥️♥️
My heart is so happy for this family
Very well done, appreciate this video!
Stories like this give families hope. When you really love someone, eventually you will get over them being taken away from you. You just hope they are alive and well.
Wow, what an incredible story! I’m sad his parents never had any closure. It must have been horrible for them. I wonder if he had any memories at all from them. He was 6, so I would think there’d be some memories.
Thank goodness he was found, and back with his family.
How did he remember being kidnapped but not take any action as an adult to search for his family or tell authorities that he had been kidnapped?
Just because many years passed a kidnapping has to be still treated as a crime. If the woman who lured and stole this kid from his family has to be prosecuted as well as the family who accepted “ stolen goods” knowing very well that this 6 year old was kidnapped. No family reunions with the family who raised him they did not legally adopt him perhaps bought him? This child’s mother died with a broken heart not knowing what happened to her son! The only happy reunion is that with his blood relatives after the loss of 70 years thst csn never be recovered.
"Luis was just 6 years old when he was abducted." "Here's a picture of Luis taken in 1940." "Luis was abducted in 1951."
It was mislabeled. Picture was from 1950.
What do they mean whoever abducted him. Surely they know by asking Luis questions. Half of the story not told here
A wonderful testimony to keeping hope alive 💞
Thank you for the great content!
No information at all given about the abductor or what happened after he was abducted. Was he raised by that person? Did he know he was kidnapped? So many questions.
I would love to hear this entire story.
Great job, this video was very useful!
Sweet story, thank you! 🌍
This was very informative, appreciate it.
I would like to know more about this story.
So fascinating 😮
This is missing about 50% of the story. But thanks for trying!
Awe what a blessing he got to meet his brother again and give him some peace before he passed. Sounds like maybe he waited for that day before leaving this earth.
Fantastic video, really appreciate your effort!
"Whoever abducted Luis has long since passed...." So they get to hide behind anonymity after kidnapping a child and probably ruining his parents' lives? I find it odd you would be so incurious about it.
Bro's been missing so long, his picture had to be tattooed directly on the cow's udder.
LOL, good one! 😂
@@TieDyeVikki Thanks, Vikki! I'll be here all week! 😆
This is truly amazing ❤thank God for bring him home ❤
That is amazing!
Never lose hope. Never quit.
" that woman"? Smh Would sound better Luis's mother
The kidnapper wasn't his mother. It was a female who kidnapped him.
God bless this family. I’m so happy they found each other. 💜💕❤️
Was the guy ever told how his “parents” got him as a child? Do they know why he was kidnapped? Did this guy ever suspect he was different from the family he was raised with? Did he feel betrayed by the ones that he was raised with after he found out the truth? And what was the identity that was given to him when he was with the new family? So many questions. We need a follow up on this story posted to RUclips.
holy jesus christ thats amazing
