On this episode we have what was then known as "The Crime Of The Century" On March 1st 1932, the son of famous aviator Charles Lindbergh was kidnapped. A ransom note was found at the scene demanding $50,000 for the safe return of the boy. Unfortunately 2 months later the child was found dead by the side of the road. We follow the investigation, the search for the kidnapper, the suspect being caught, tried and sentenced to death for murder. However, a few things don't quite add up in this case and we wonder if they got the right guy or it was another typical FBI screw up. Give it a listen and let us know what you think!
