re: #56 William Lewis

Speaking of Lindbergh, I read an interesting article the other day (can’t find the link now darn it) that suggested that he, embarrassed by his son’s genetic defect, might have killed him, faked the kidnapping and happily let an innocent man be executed for the “crime”. It was quite in keeping with other things I’ve read about him so I didn’t find it too hard to imagine.

Yes I have heard this story about Lindbergh killing his own child. But didn’t Hauptmann confess to the crime?
