Verdict reached in Abington murder trial

19 year old Gilbert Newton III was found guilty of the stabbing death of his ex-girlfriend, 18-year-old Morgan McCaffery.

A Montgomery County jury found Newton III guilty in the charges of murder in the first degree and possession of an instrument of crime. We reported about this earlier this week.

On July 27, 2020, 18-year-old Morgan McCaffrey was murdered at the Meadowbrook Train Station in Abington. She was stabbed over 30 times.
