Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr., 20-month-old son of the famous aviator and Anne Morrow Lindbergh, was kidnapped about 9:00 p.m., on March 1, 1932, from the nursery on the second floor of the Lindbergh home near Hopewell, New Jersey. At least 12 ransom notes were sent, all by the same person, and then on May 12, 1932, the body of the kidnapped baby was accidentally found, partly buried, and badly decomposed, about four and a half miles southeast of the Lindbergh home. On April 3, 1936, at 8:47 p.m., Bruno Richard Hauptmann was electrocuted. .

On December 25, 1996, JonBenét Ramsey was reported missing from her home, and then her body was found seven hours later in the basement. A little six year old beauty queen, the child was strangled and had suffered head trauma. The case remains unsolved despite extensive investigations.

Both cases contain instances of something called the Mandela effect, which is an unusual phenomenon where a large group of people remembers something differently than how it occurred.
