Hey, DB Cooper The FBI Still Wants You! Give It Up

Posted by Bill on January 1, 2008

cooper112406b.jpg  Our good friends at the FBI do not give up!  Yesterday, they announced a renewed effort to grab the most wanted airplane hijacker in the world–DB Cooper.  Seattle Special Agent Larry Carr is the case agent looking for DB Cooper.  Cooper hijacked a Northwest airplane out of Seattle in 1971.  He handed a note to the flight attendant saying he had a bomb, he wanted four parachutes and $200K.  He got his demands and released some passengers.  He ordered the plane to take off and fly to Mexico.  During the flight, he put on a parachuted and jumped.  He was never seen again.  Read the FBI announcement FBI Announcement  and read the whole story at FBI Article

In the announcement the FBI says:  “Would we still like to get our man? Absolutely. And we have reignited the case—thanks to a Seattle case agent named Larry Carr and new technologies like DNA testing.

You can help. We’re providing here, for the first time, a series of pictures and information on the case. Please look it all over carefully to see if it triggers a memory or if you can provide any useful information.”

Hey, good work Larry.
