The Cases That Haunt Us
“Presumably, it was to be used to pry open the window or shutters if necessary. When Hauptmann’s carpenter’s toolbox was examined, the three-quarter-inch chisel, and only that chisel, was missing. This isn’t a smoking gun, but it’s pretty damning circumstantial evidence, especially when taken with everything else.
In The Airman and the Carpenter, Ludovic Kennedy claims that two three-quarter-inch chisels were actually found in Hauptmann’s garage—one a Buck Brothers and the other a Stanley—an...d that they remained in police custody until Anthony Scaduto came across them. We asked Mark W. Falzini, the New Jersey State Police archivist, about this. Falzini has a comprehensive knowledge of the case and the evidence, but no personal opinion on Hauptmann’s guilt or innocence. He told us that he has no idea where Kennedy’s and Scaduto’s information comes from. No such chisels were ever in police custody.MoreLess
