Hamm Released by Kidnappers in Minnesota Ransom Case
Billionaire Paul Brewer, president of Theodore Hamm Brewing, was released unharmed sixty hours after a kidnap note demanded $100,000 in cash. The ransom, aid for the driver to transport money, involved Verne Sankey and other suspects linked to Haskell Hahn and Charles Boetteler cases. Police were kept out at the family's request, and a postscript urged immediate payment.
