Lindbergh Kidnapping Probe Urged in New Jersey
Senator Emerson L. Richards, Republican leader, says an inquiry into the police handling of the Lindbergh kidnapping is likely. He cites five major blunders including detention of Red Johnson, ransom payment by Dr. Condon, a Lindbergh hoax, the body found five miles from the estate, and Violet Sharpe’s death. He expects a Senate-initiated police probe rather than a gubernatorial call for a special session.
