There's no way to know. There was certainly a lot of evidence which pointed to him as the murderer but there was also other possible explanations. His fingerprints were not found on the ladder the kidnapper used to gain entry into the house, he had no clear way of knowing that the Lindberghs would be in that house when they were, and the man he said left the ransom money the police found in his house had disappeared back to Germany after the crime. However, he could never explain why he had the phone number of john condon, the man who brokered the ransom deal, written on his closet wall. We will never know for sure whether an innocent or a guilty man was put to death.

Who was Bruno Hauptmann and what happened to him?
Bruno Hauptmann was a German-American carpenter who was tried and convicted for the kidnapping of the Charles Lindberg baby. He was ultimately executed. It is true, Bruno Richard Hauptmann was tried, convicted, and killed for the kidnapping/killing of the famous aviator's baby, but he was really innocent. At the time, it looked as though in some points he was guilty, but later research has shown that he was innocent. Some people believed even then that he was innocent, and also, today some people believe he was guilty. I believe strongly - although I don't know who REALLY commited the crime - that Mr. Richard (he was called Richard, but yellow journalism promoted the name Bruno because it seemed more criminal-like) Hauptmann was innocent and murdered at a young age. :::;;; he was a German carprter how got acused of murder of 20 year old Charles Augustus Lindbergh Jr., Anyone who seriously studies the Lindbergh case knows Hauptmann was guilty as charged. The wood from the ladder came from his attic; he misspelled the same words the same way for the police as in the ransom letters; he was found with the marked money in his garage; he quit his job 3 days after the kidmapping but had plenty of spending money after the ransom was paid. There is no real doubt he was guilty; that's why his widow's appeals never went anywhere.

Why did Bruno Hauptmann kill Charles Jr?
The Lindbergh case has many unanswered questions even after almost a century later. Many believe that Hauptmann was innocent of the crime completely and was convicted on false evidence. Since Hauptmann went to the death chamber proclaiming his innocence he most certainly did not say how or why the Lindbergh infant was killed, if he ever really knew. There has been new interest in the case and we may soon have new evidence relying on the ransom notes and handwriting technology using computers instead of the human eye. This may prove that Hauptmann was not guilty and went to the electric chair an innocent man.
