Lindberghs Aid Hauptmann Case Across the Nation
Fresh confidence and new support for the circumstantial case against Bruno Hauptmann emerged as Colonel and Mrs. Charles A. Lindbergh began a nationwide flight to assist the investigation. New Jersey police superintendent H Norman Schwarzkopf said sufficient evidence exists to extradite Hauptmann for trial, while indictments related to the kidnap murder loom in New Jersey. The Daily News reports evidence suggesting Hauptmann may have injured his leg in 1933, possibly marking a prior fracture or sprain associated with the case. Continued medical and legal consultations were planned as authorities pursue procedure and additional physicians’ input.
