20. Who Took The Lindbergh Baby?

20. Who Took The Lindbergh Baby?

One evening in 1932, a baby was taken from his crib as he slept. The child was Charles Lindbergh Jr., son of the infamous Atlantic crossing aviator, Charles Lindbergh. The crime became an instant sensational case. When several ransom notes are received through various channels, investigators are kept on their toes, chasing every lead no matter how outlandish it may be. One man is finally apprehended, tried, and convicted for the crime and yet many today believe he was innocent. And that is why this "solved" case remains a mystery in the eyes of the public.
