I was reading in Noel Behn's book, "Lindbergh The Crime," about all the help which he got from a Steve Romeo. Anyone ever heard of him?
Behn, by the way, was a super-intellectual who has his own after-death library similar to a Governor or President.

Reisinger wrote "Master Detective." That's one of the big Lindbergh questions - how could the Parkers be so dumb - or were they?

They weren't dumb at all - quite the contrary.
Wendel did this to himself. He was giving Parker information no one else had. He was "floating" information out there and saying things to people knowing it would implicate him in the crime itself - and not just the intermediary he claimed he was.
Like what? According to whom? Pratt? He was wrong about a lot of things.
Neither Parker nor Hoffman tried to "set up" anyone. And Parker never pulled anything over the years. He was ahead of his time concerning many things - one being the fact he never used strong-arm tactics. In fact, he both preached and wrote against them.
There were many people who believed Wendel was involved. The problem is that when you consider what a con-man does and says - even the crimes they claim could be a con then you never do know what the truth is.
Could Wendel (and Salamanda) have had involvement? Look into everything then tell me.

What "information no onelse had"? What Wendel said could all be found in the papers. Curtis was the guy who said the door was locked from the other side and swayed Lindbergh. Still Curtis really probably made just a lucky guess and had no other inside information.
Now if Curtis was smart he'd have made up something else - same for Hauptmann. But then neither of these guys would have lived long in prison or on the street with the world thinking they'd killed Jr.
So, knowing that BRH DID do it, or was involved - he probably actually extended his life for a few years.
My question really was why the Parkers, doing what they thought was "detective work" would be found liable feloniously for their actions? If someone is incorrectly arrested, incarcerated, then, which happens all the time is an officer guilty of kidnapping?
Also it's simply Wendel's word(s) about what actually happened. If you discount his BS it really breaks down to normal police functioning and the Parkers, Murry and whomever are off the hook.
As I recall Wendel's wounds looked "questionable" and perhaps even self inflicted - that said by a doctor.
Instead the Parkers et al are quickly (very) ostracized and go down as more bodies due to The Lindbergh Crime.

wendel worked for parker in the beginning, but never found anything, and parker frames him in the kidnapping and the rest is history. parker wasnt sent to prion for 6 years for nothing, he was the ringleader

I have to disagree. There's things Wendel said, which were true, that hardly anyone knew about AND wasn't in any paper.
Most were self inflicted. He was hit once though....after he bragged about emasculating the child, you know, during the "forced" confession.
He was prosecuted for political reasons. He did not frame Wendel. Wendel did this to himself. He led Parker to believe he was in on it. He had several active warrents in NJ. Then when Bleefeld, et. al. picked him up he confessed.
Bleefeld, via threats of punishment then promises of immunity - gave whatever tale Geoghan wanted him to tell. Geoghan's eye was on Gov. Hoffman - once that fell through then the Parkers. Once that fell through then he stabbed Bleefeld in the back. This was all done because he was under suspicion for all the corruption coming out of his Office.
Once Wendel was asked where he wanted to go he selected Parker. He confessed to Parker then later recanted his confession to Parker. Parker turned over both when he delivered him to Kirkham, who by the way, thanked him for turning over the fugitive.
If Parker "framed" him then why did he turn over everything over? He could have chosen what to turn over and what not to. But he gave them everything.

Thankgoodnessly, Kevkon, Michael and Ronell are important contributors to important Lindbergh book as well.
Rome is a contributor - but has he been holding something back?

I don't believe he was Steve. There's no real evidence to support it. I believe he was struck after bragging about how he mutilated the body.
He wasn't tortured at New Lisbon either but he confessed there too. But he was hitting himself trying to create evidence of the torture he claimed occurred in Brooklyn.
If you believe Wendel, about anything he said, then how can you not believe Means? They were both equals when it came to telling the truth.

Two or three people said they tortured him. To get easy sentencing which they didn't get.
Lotta jail time - why would this solve anything for the government if it never even happened?
Close a door?
Are you being self contradictory? Saying this crime never happened (while actually confessed to) yet the major crime did (courts said another perpetrator), as the courts did when they said that Curtis dealt with a kidnap gang while regarding the Hauptmann trial they claim a gang did not exist?
