My grandad was a reporter for the Journal-American and the first on the scene, even beat the police there. He saw Lindbergh with a flashlight and a shotgun stalking from the area below the window, with murder in his eyes...
Wow! Your grandfather covered the Lindbergh Baby case! I read the Journal-American as a little kid in it’s last few years before it went under. Great paper. Anything else your grandfather said about the case?
That info about Lindbergh looking around the premises with his gun is included in several books on the subject. Your grandfather probably included that in his story from the scene. Can you tell us his name?
There are, however, a few researchers who would argue that the kidnapping either never occurred as such or was staged, and that the kidnap story was fabricated to cover-up the reality that Lindbergh or his family was involved in the child's death.
