The document summarizes the infamous kidnapping and murder case of Charles Lindbergh Jr. in 1932. It provides details of the crime, the investigation led by J. Edgar Hoover that traced ransom money to Bruno Hauptmann, Hauptmann's trial where forensic evidence and witness testimony implicated him, and his eventual conviction and execution. The document also notes that the baby's body was found months later and that Hauptmann claimed innocence until the end, though the author believes the evidence clearly pointed to his guilt.
