In 1930, he murdered Alfredo Pedillo Jose in an apartment house hallway. When Cabe returned a borrowed car to a friend, he was arrested and confessed. A news article about the arrest of Cabe was printed in a New York newspaper. The article was on the same page as articles reporting on the advised return of Americans from Thailand and the death of the "local social worker" Edith Keeler. This was one of the images Spock's tricorder recorded before he and Captain Kirk transported back in time. (TOS: "The City on the Edge of Forever" ) This character was only mentioned in writing.
