John Wilkes Booth did not kidnap President Abraham Lincoln primarily because his plan evolved into an assassination plot instead. Initially, Booth aimed to abduct Lincoln and use him as leverage to negotiate for the release of Confederate prisoners. However, after the fall of Richmond and the collapse of the Confederacy, Booth's motivations shifted toward making a statement against the Union by assassinating Lincoln. This change in strategy ultimately led to Booth's fateful decision to carry out the assassination on April 14, 1865.
