Defense, Shortly after Hauptmann's arrest in The Bronx with $20 of the Lind bergh ransom money in his pocket, Anna Hauptmann fell into the hands of one Harry Whitney, who has since described himself as the Hauptmanns' "business manager." At first Hauptmann refused to have any lawyer, discarding several of his wife's selection. By the end of his first week's imprisonment, however, he had agreed to retain James M. Fawcett of Brooklyn.
