Old Smokey is a euphemistic name given to the state prison electric chair in New Jersey, which is currently on exhibition at the Newseum in Washington, DC as part of an exhibition detailing great cases of the FBI. It had previously been on display at the New Jersey State Police Museum. The chair's most notorious client was Bruno Hauptmann, the man executed in the chair after being found guilty of abducting and killing Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr. in 1932, the 20-month-old son of famous aviators Charles Lindbergh and Anne Morrow Lindbergh (see Lindbergh kidnapping). It was also the name given to Pennsylvania's electric chair.
