On This Day July 10
Sixteen-year-old John Paul Getty, the grandson of oil tycoon Jean Paul Getty, was kidnapped by an Italian gang on July 10, 1973. After two ransom notes were ignored an envelope containing a lock of hair and a human ear was delivered to a daily newspaper with a threat of further mutilation of Paul, unless $3.2 million was paid. At this point Getty Sr. agreed to pay up and Getty III was found alive five months after his kidnapping in a filling station shortly after the payment of the ransom.
