Hauptmann fate debated by New Jersey court
The New Jersey Court of Errors and Appeals weighs whether Bruno Richard Hauptmann deserves a new trial for the Lindbergh infant murder. The key issue hinges on whether the infant’s death occurred during a felony linked to the infant’s sleeping suit, a garment central to the case. The panel considers if the suit’s theft qualified as a felony, versus the defense arguing it did not meet the $20 value threshold.
