This week’s prize is the book “Liberty versus the Tyranny of Socialism“ By Walter E. Williams

On the evening of March 1st, 1932 the son of aviation hero Charles Lindbergh was kidnapped from the family’s mansion in Hopewell, New Jersey. A note was found in their son’s empty bedroom demanding a $50,000 ransom. For three days, investigators found nothing and there was no further word from the kidnappers. Then, a new letter showed up, this time demanding $70,000. The kidnappers eventually gave instructions for dropping off the money and when it was delivered, the Lindbergh’s were told their baby was on a boat called Nelly off the coast of Massachusetts. After an exhaustive search, however, there was no sign of either the boat or the child. Soon after, the baby’s body was discovered near the Lindbergh mansion. He had been killed the night of the kidnapping and was found less than a mile from home. One of the investigators from the New Jersey State Police was this man, whose son became the commanding general of all coalition forces for Operation Desert Shield/Storm. Name this New Jersey State Police investigator. Submit Answer Here!!!!
