The Case
The Crime: A 20 month old baby was abducted from his home in New
Jersey in the year 1932
The Victim: Charles Augustus Lindbergh jr
Main Suspect: All we know so far is a guy named “John”

The Investigation
The Agencies: The attorney general FBI director, J. Edgar Hoover, The Jersey
Police Department, and the US Department of Justice
Techniques: Federal investigation units, a close watch on ransom money,
and a cash reward for whoever found the baby
The cracking evidence: The government was able to trace the bills to the
person that passed them. People said they saw a man that fit the description
of John and his name was Bruno Richard Hauptmann

Who’s Who?
• Charles Augustus Lendbergh Sr. and Anne Morrow Lindbergh
• The Parents of the missing child
• Betty Gow and Violet Sharpe
• The servants working in the house
• J. Edgar Hoover
• The main investigator
• Dr. Condon
• Recipient of the 12 ransom notes
• Cemetery John
• Distributor of the ransom notes
• Bruno Richard Hauptmann
• Man tried and convicted for the first degree murder of the baby
J. Edgar
Hoover
Bruno
hauptmann

The Trial
Destination: The Bronx, New York
Lawyers: David Wilentz was the prosecution and Samuel Leibowitz was
the defense attorney
Witnesses: Amandus Hochmuth said she saw a green car with a latter,
and the man holding it began to walk towards the house. Dr. Condon
testified how he gave "John' money
Forensic Evidence: The tools that were used in the abduction were
proven to be Hauptmann's, the wood used to make the latter was the
same wood in his house, Dr. Condon's number was found in his closet,
and his handwriting matched the handwriting on the ransom notes
Verdict: Guilty of Manlaughter

The Baby’s body is
Found!
Baby Charles Augustus Lenbergh’s body was found on May 12, 1932.
The body was mutilated and partially decomposed. There appeared
to be severe trauma to the baby’s head.

Hauptmann’s Defense
Hauptmann’s attorney tried to associate the baby’s disappearance
with the servants. When he and his defense failed to counter attack
the prosecution’s claims, the jury convicted Hauptmann of first
degree murder and sentenced him to death by the electric chair. After
his death, his widow discovered numerous innocent men in New
Jersey’s crime history, determined to prove his innocence. On April 3,
1936, Bruno Hauptmann was electricuted.

What Do I Think?
I think justice was served on a hot plate. Based on what was found,
Hauptmann is 100% guilty for the kidnapping and murder of the baby.
During the investigation his own material was found in the Lindbergh
property. And it’s been said that he had planned this for a long time. His
wife appeared to be in denial because nobody want to view their loved
one as heartless killer. While she made a good effort to prove his
innocence, I think it was wasted time. There was more evidence that
counter evidence.
