Mere Chance furnishing the victim As he was walking to his Home from the play ground of a private school the confession said. A emotionally the confession related How. With the victim slain and his body covered by an automobile Robe in the rear of their rented car the slayers stopped at a restaurant and at sandwiches before carrying out their plans for the burial and demand for $10,000 Ransom. Elaborate details had been worked out for the collection of the Money which was to be placed in a Safe Deposit vault and kept for a year before being spent. process of getting this Money was decided on first then a Means of notifying the father of t he victim was arranged and finally the disposal of the body was planned the confession said. Til re thing not foreseen extreme care had been taken that there might be no slip in putting the plan into effect. But neither of the youths had bargained for the discovery of the body the Day after it had been hidden the finding of a pair of glasses later identified As Leopold a near the body and the father of the slain boy forgetting in his excitement part of the directions for delivering the Money. A the process of Geeting the Money was the most difficult problem a Leopold s confession said. A finally we hit on the one to throw the Money from a moving train after we had the Given Point Market. A the next problem was the system of notification. We had planned a number of relays. thing was to Tell the that his son was kidnapped and being held for Ransom. A the was to secure $10,000 in denominations As follows $8,000 in i $50 Bills and $2,000 in $20 Bills.

A in the train he was to proceed to the rear of the car where the Telegram Blanks were kept and there he was to be instructed to go to the Back platform and face East until the train came to a Large Brick factory that had a water Tower on it with the White inscription. A Champion. He was to count to or three and then throw the Box As Farn As he could. A the next problem was to get the victim and we were undecided until that Day.

I want to ask you about a Tennis i got in Tho car then and stepped on the Gas. As we turned the Corner Richard put one hand Over his Mouth and with his right hand beat him on the Ead. He did not succumb As readily a a we expected and Rinard pulled him to the Back seat and forced a club or gag into Bis Mouth. I guess he was instantly suffocated. We proceeded South along the Boulevard and Rode to the Road leading to Gary. We even stopped to buy a couple of sandwiches. A the body was covered with an automobile Robe we had brought along for that purpose. We had previously removed the shoes stockings. And trousers. We left the shoes at the Side of the Road in the grass. When we reached our destination i put the body Down on the grass and removed the Werft of the clothes and poured acid on the face to make identification More difficult. A we put the body in the Drain pipe and pushed it in As far As we could we gathered up the clothes and placed them in the Robe and apparently at this Point the glasses fell from my Burn clothes in Joeb Home after returning to the City Leopold said he called the Franks Home.
