I gave this one a listen today as I was driving to St. Louis. I enjoyed this one a lot. I follow the Zodiac case as well, though not as much as Cooper. Very enjoyable, thanks.

I think that's 5 posts now from the guy that was taking a break.

The above post was totally unrelated to the DB Cooper case. No one on this forum needs to be updated that you are going camping by yourself.

You proved my point Roberta, I make a simple post in reply to Darren's post and you go on a rant about nothing Cooper related. Just another long post expressing your butt hurt over the Cooper forum. My posts over at the Cooper forum are no concern of yours, especially since you don't view that forum any longer. Here's a bit of advice Robby, build a bridge and get over it, and quit being such a damn drama queen.

Good. I'll save that one for my drive to Minnesota next week.

Yes, I gave it a listen the other day when I grew tired of listening to Bob Mueller proving himself to be an idiot. It was an entertaining podcast. But I didn't hear anything that makes me think Lakich is a good suspect.

Kenny Christiansen story is full of lies. Period.

No. It's because I don't buy into lies and confirmation bias. Plus, I have at least half of a brain which is far more than enough for anyone to see that Kenny Christiansen isn't DB Cooper.

I gave this one a listen while driving home from Virginia yesterday. There is definitely a story to be told about Edwards, but there is simply no way that he was involved in all of these crimes. No way. Enjoyed the podcast though. I've listened to all of them except the Blevins one...for obvious reasons.

Well, if Rackstraw truly hated Hillary Clinton, he can't be all that bad. Rest In Peace, Airborne Bob!

Back to Decoded... Anyone not familiar with the DB Cooper case can be convinced of anyone's guilt if they don't take the time to study the case and the facts surrounding it as well as all of the coincidences that surround other suspects. If all one ever sees is the Kenny garbage, then yes, it's easy to convince them of anything. Bottom line, Decoded is a conspiracy theory show and the hosts are morons. I wouldn't give a squirt of piss for Buddy Levys opinion on the Cooper case.

I have my doubts that this case will ever be solved. But if it is solved, I think the most likely scenario is that it gets solved on a camping trip.

Actually Robert, you may think you own Kenny's story and you may even have something that says you do. But in reality anyone could write about Kenny or make a movie or TV show about him and you would have no way to stop them.

I know the FBI had interest in Rackstraw early on, but the evidence that Colbert has presented is very weak. But, I can't think of anyone with a suspect that has done as much for the case as Colbert has. I don't think it's even close.

It would be totally asinine to suggest that Tina had not ever seen a picture of Kenny Christiansen. Further, in his early days here on the DZ, Blevins claims to have gained permission from Tina to send her a photo of Kenny Christiansen. If the search functions here were better, one could find that quote. But, at the end of the day, it was probably just another lie.

Shutter - Someone posted a while back that Tina had actually identified a picture of LD Cooper as the hijacker. I don't remember who posted that and if it was at your site or maybe on Bruces. Seems like it may have been Nicky. Do you recall who posted that or where they got that info? I'm sure it was all bs, but I remembered someone saying something along those lines.

I can recall one time in particular when an attempt was made to, "shut out some voices in the Cooper case". Last November I think it was. With that, I will now bow out of this discussion.

Yes, I made some assumptions. You've made quite a few of them over the years as well. I don't think I need to list them here.

Totally agree with above. Here are some points that need to be considered regarding this "revelation": 1. Agent Jarvis was not involved in the DB Cooper investigation, period. So why would he have any inside info on the case? Did the FBI send a memo to all of their employees letting them know they solved the case, but was just going to drop it since the perpetrator was dead? Highly doubtful. So then, how did Jarvis get this info? 2. According to Blevins own article, Jarvis never mentioned Kenny Christiansen by name. He only nodded his head when his name was mentioned. 3. Why would the FBI go public with LD Cooper, a dead suspect who they called their "most promising suspect", but then decide that it wasn't worth naming Christiansen as Cooper, once they "solved" the case. 4. Jarvis had no secret intel or no secret knowledge on the case. He knew what the public knew and what Ayn Dietrich-Williams said in an email to Bruce Williams: Prior to closing the case, the FBI spent the previous 5 years looking into LD Cooper, a dead guy that they thought was DB Cooper. When they were unable to prove LD was in fact DB, the case was closed. So, with the above in mind, isn't is possible (likely even) that Jarvis, not being overly familiar with case, knew that there was a dead guy that the FBI thought was Cooper, and they closed the case after completing their investigation on the guy. He probably didn't remember the guys name, again because he doesn't work on the case and only has a passing knowledge of the case and some of the details. It comes up in conversation and he says, "Yeah, the guys dead so they just closed it". Someone says, "You mean it was Christiansen". he says "yeah, that guy". Same reaction he would've had if they had said Cooper, or Weber, or McCoy. Why? Because it was small talk between friends and he really doesn't know anything special or sensitive regarding the case. Bottom Line: If the case was solved, the FBI would absolutely make it known.

I'll do that....later in the evening may be. Partial DNA that FBI has is also not confirmed that it belongs to DBC .... at least that's what I gathered from Skyjack. And what I know is that there are no fingerprints. Or that FBI picked quiet a few of them and it cannot be confirmed which ones are of DBC... isn't that correct? Besides, the book is a bit ambiguous on whether Webber was eliminated as suspect basis DNA or not... it has been discussed here a while back (but then so is everything else as well ) ... can u update me on it? Emphasis on 'coincidences'.

During my 14 years with Comcast I did that many times. I've even had to stand on the very top of the side rails of a 28 foot ladder because a utility pole was so tall. OSHA would have made an example out of me for sure and I would have gotten fired. Don't matter though. The sons of bitches fired me anyway this past September. Best thing that ever happened to me.

I don't like to rub it in, but Duane's the only one lately besides Marla Cooper's uncle who has been officially dismissed as a suspect by the Seattle FBI...not Christiansen. Still, I am one of the few around here who doesn't claim a suspect is 'for sure' DB Cooper. Because I know that claim has not been proven as yet. On the other hand, you keep telling everyone that Duane was the hijacker but you haven't presented a single named witness who can corroborate even a PIECE of your claim. Not one, not anyone who can be contacted. You just don't give people anything realistic to go on. Even though I didn't release the final report on KC publicly, I know there are copies of the original, shorter, (and slightly inaccurate) report out there. But there ARE names and locations attached to that report. If anyone really wanted to do so, they could probably use the old report to contact at least a portion of the witnesses. If you had any evidence, it is no longer in existence. Not to say Duane wasn't the hijacker. Yes, he could be. But unless you can provide something solid to go on...how do ever expect to prove this allegation that Duane was Cooper? This is not my fault, or anyone's fault but yours. Maybe you should have done a book, or worked with the media. Maybe THEY could have assisted you. Your refusal to do that and stand alone with your claim makes it difficult to support you. Kenny Christiansen may not be DB Cooper, but by God we surely presented a good amount of evidence against him, and against Bernie Geestman. Not enough to convict. But enough for people to take notice. Twelve different witnesses. Documents and pictures, some of which have not been made public. Mucho testimony. Names, addresses, emails, and phone numbers provided. Excuse me, but when have you ever done such a thing in your effort to prove Duane was the guy? You say you are afraid of lawsuits, etc. sometimes. We've done WAY worse. A book, articles galore with pictures and real names and the towns where they live. And yet four years later there is not a peep out of anyone we named with any type of legal threats, phone calls to our office, requests to cease and desist, etc. Nothing, nada, nobody, no how. And even if someone did that, then they have to prove we're telling lies about them...which means they would have to answer possibly difficult questions to prove their case. Am I worried about any of this? NO. And some people HAVE taken notice of our efforts...I am starting to receive messages from some of the folks who were given the final report on Christiansen. Robert, perhaps I missed it, but when did the FBI completely rule out LD? "They were saying he was never gonna make it now, now that daylight had set in. But later that night, they were shining those lights back down on that mountain again." - Todd Snider

How do you know this, Bobby. Where can we go to confirm it? Thanks! And even if true, doesn't mean jack. Blevins also says: "You believe it is my job to somehow 'prove' to you that Kenny Christiansen was DB Cooper. And I understand that many of you don't believe he was." Wrong again Robert. It isn't "many" of us that don't believe it, it's "all" of us. I know of 3 people who have claimed belief that Kenny was Cooper: You, Skip & the kid that said he was going to jump off the bridge. That's it. "They were saying he was never gonna make it now, now that daylight had set in. But later that night, they were shining those lights back down on that mountain again." - Todd Snider

Robert, could we please drop the notion that the witnesses were is disagreement with their descriptions? Sure, the ones who never paid attention to him probably can't describe him well. But the ones who did all had very similar descriptions. This is yet another attempt to change history and the facts of the case.

Robert Blevins asks: Georger, aka xxxxxxxxxx, is telling you at the alternate site that I used to call him up and blast YouTube videos in his ear. Do you believe that? Do you think I am the sort of person who would do such a thing?" My answer: I have no idea. I have not seen any posts by Georger saying that. I don't know what kind of person you are. My gut feeling is that you are a decent guy that wants his suspect to be "the guy" so bad that he takes things of little significance and blows them way out of proration. That's as good of answers as I can give, having never met either of you. "They were saying he was never gonna make it now, now that daylight had set in. But later that night, they were shining those lights back down on that mountain again." - Todd Snider
