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.

Bruno Hauptmann was a German-American carpenter who was tried and convicted for the kidnapping of the Charles Lindberg baby. He was ultimately executed.

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.
