The ladder aspect of this case reminds me of theThat is not a 5' ladder in the picture.
Maybe he bought one and used a different one he found available on site ?
Lindbergh case. No Walmart then. He builds his own ladder from crawl boards in his attic. Fine and dandy. untraceable?
That is till you spend some of the marked ransom money in a gas station a few klicks from your house and the gas station attendant writes down your tag on that mysteriously large denomination for such a small sale. That led to a search warrant. ladder stock discovered, the rest was history. I guess the Bronx was always a crime ridden shit hole.
I’m sure the origin of this ladder and it’s mode of transport will be discovered, better yet I’m sure it has been already.
Good, solid, old fashion Police work.
I still have total faith in it.
