THE CRIME
On November 24, 1971, a lone white male boarded Northwest Orient Flight #305 at Portland, Oregon. At approximately 3:22 P.M., while the flight was en route to Seattle, Washington, he indicated to the stewardess that his brief case contained a bomb which would blow up the plane unless his demands were met.
The hijacker demanded $200,000 and four parachutes in exchange for the safety of the 36 passengers aboard the plane. When the aircraft landed at Seattle, Washington, Northwest Orient Airlines complied with his instructions. After he received the parachutes and the money, the hijacker allowed all passengers and two airline stewardesses to deplane.
He then ordered the remaining crew members into the first-class section of the aircraft and informed them he desired to fly to Mexico City. The hijacker instructed that the plane proceed in a southerly direction and fly at a low altitude and slow speed which would enable the rear door of the plane

She also noted he was always extremely polite, even to her whom he did not care for at all.
She noted the composite she identified as looking just like John Scott Maze, looked like him without the "David Niven" type mustache he always wore.
She also recalled he alwas talked at a low modulation as he had an adversity towards loud noise. She added, she talks loud . and that' was one of the things Maze did not like about her. advised she has papers and photographs stored away and if she locates anything which would be of further value to the Federal Bureau of Investigation concerning Maze, she will contact the interviewing Agent and 'furnish it to him.
In conclusion she stated in her judgment, the composite picture she identified is a picture of John Scott Maze, and Maze's complexion was even more tan than the complexion depicted in the colored composites when she last saw Maze in person in 1972.

the mystery D.B. COOPER
by musika farnsworth
T he year was 1971. USPA had recently changed its name from the Parachute Club of America and was growing at the rate of 1,000 new members a year. The largest freefall formation on record was a 10-man star. Attempts to break the record that year with 14 jumpers failed. Most skydivers jumped with motorcycle helmets, and a stopwatch next to the altimeter helped with altitude awareness. USPA produced a new film called "This is a Sport," which sold for $100 to USPA members and $150 to non-members- that's $700 in today's currency.
Taking Control of the Plane
On a rainy and windy afternoon before Thanksgiving, November 24, 1971, a man described as tall, thin and in his 40s purchased a one-way ticket from Portland, Oregon, to Seattle,
Washington, aboard Northwest Airlines flight 305. He wore sunglasses, a dark suit and a tie and gave the name Dan Coop He checked in no luggage but carried on a briefcase.
He wore sunglasses, a dark suit and a tie and gave the name Dan Coop He checked in no luggage but carried on a briefcase.
As the plane was taxiing for takeoff, the man handed the flight attendant a note, which she immediately put into her pocket, thinking he was merely trying to give her his phone number. Once in the air, he discreetly showed the attendant the explosives in his briefcase and instructed her and the crew to carefully read the note and follow the instructions. Cooper instructions demanded a knapsack, $200,000 cash in small b and "two front packs and two backpacks," or two complete parachute rigs including belly-mounted reserves.
Cooper also demanded that the 727 land in an unlit, seclu and unused portion of Seattle's airport and that the aircraft n land until the parachutes and cash were ready for him. The

PARACHUTIST
DB Cooper-33729, "usually short, half-hour flight cirded and maintained a holding pattern, as the captain calmly informed passengers that traffic at Seattle-Tacoma was delaying their arrival.
As flight 305 circled over Seattle, D.B. Cooper sat alone, wearing sunglasses during most of the flight, chain smoking. and ordering two bourbons and water.
On the ground, the FBI immediately began searching for any information that could tell them who D.B. Cooper was. Without a psychological history of the hijacker, the airline decided that for the safety of the crew, passengers and civilians in the vicinity, all his demands would be mer."Authorities quickly collected the ran- som money from several local banks and rushed two military rigs from McCord Air Force Base in Tacoma to Sea-Tac. But when Cooper learned authorities had provided military rigs, he said they were not acceptable and demanded state-of-the-art freefall rigs.
Meeting the Demands
That evening, skydiver and master parachute rigger Earl Cossey of Washington received a telephone call from a business associate . who also happened to be the manager of Sea-Tac International Air- port.
Meeting the Demands
That evening, skydiver and master parachute rigger Earl Cossey of Washington received a telephone call from a business associate . who also happened to be the manager of Sea-Tac International Air- port. The airport manager asked for two backpacks and two chest- pack parachutes as soon as possible-but couldn't disclose the reason. Cossey admits he wondered about the manager's request. "But I trusted him completely and did as I was told,"he says.
Cossey phoned the local drop zone at Issaquah, Washington, and had a skydiver staying at the drop zone's loft collect the parachutes and hand them over to authorities. He gave them two of Cossey's personal backpacks-one freefall rig and one- Navy emergency NB-8 backpack-and two of the DZ's chest packs. The parachutes were rushed 30 miles in a patrol car from the drop zone in Issaquah to Sea-Tac International Airport.
In the meantime, flight 305 continued to cirde for two hours above Seattle, waiting for the ransom money and parachutes to arrive. Although the captain and flight attendants calmly reassured passengers it would be only a little longer, some passengers had already suspected something was amiss.
Although the captain and flight attendants calmly reassured passengers it would be only a little longer, some passengers had already suspected something was amiss.
When flight 305 finally landed at 5:45 p.m. in an unlit and secluded area of the airport, passengers were told to remain seated until they got further instructions. As they patiently waited in their seats, the 36 passengers watched as the flight: attendant walked down the aisle with a large money bag ahd parachutes, Cooper then released all passengers and crew mem -: bers, save for the pilot, co-pilot, flight engineer and one flight agendant. As the lone jet fueled and prepared for takeoff with five people on board, sharpshooters surrounded the 727.
Into the Night
Cooper instructed the pilots to fly to Mexico City in the following configuration: at an altitude no higher than 10,000 feet, no faster than 170 knots, landing gear down, flaps at 15 degrees and with the rear stairway lowered.
Once the hijacked jet took off, Cooper instructed the flight attendant and pilots to remain in the cockpit.
Once the hijacked jet took off, Cooper instructed the flight attendant and pilots to remain in the cockpit. The flight attendant was the last to see Cooper. She said he was "tying something around his waist."
Cooper demanded that the pilots fly the 727 manually, and theit speed of approximately 170 knots came very close to the stall point."All air traffic for the entire northwestern United States was alerted of the hijacking and diverted from the area. However, two Air Force F106 fighters, a-T33 fighter jet trainer and FBI agents in a helicopter trailed the 727.
During the flight, Cooper opened one of the reserve packs, removed the canopy and cut two lines off, perhaps to use as a rope to tie the money bag around his waist. The $200,000 in $20 bills totaled 10,000 individual bills, weighing 21 pounds.

This FBI badletin shows a composite sker; to d' the sought-after hijacker.
It was approximately 8:15 p.m., and the northwest was experi -: encing a heavy rain storm with occasional snow ffurries, winds up to 80 knots and temperatures of 20 degrees at altitude. Wear -: ing a long, flat backpack parachute and chest-mounted reserve over his business suit and slip-on loafers, Cooper descended the lowered aircraft steps. Investigators believe he held onto the hand rails and stood on the stairs at 10,000 feet in the wind and rain for up to two minutes .- before jumping into the night.
The Missing Man and Gear
The Northwest Airlines co-pilot politely and repeatedly informed Cooper over the intercom that they had to refuel in Reno before continuing. It was only after they landed that the crew discovered that Cooper, the money, his briefcase, raincoat and one backpack and reserve parachute were gone.
It was only after they landed that the crew discovered that Cooper, the money, his briefcase, raincoat and one backpack and reserve parachute were gone.
The fighter jets and helicopter that had followed the hijacked 727. in the stormy conditions never saw or picked up on radar any sign of Cooper or a parachute. As for the alleged bomb, it too was gone. According to the flight attendant's description of the explosives, the FBI suspected that the bomb was a replica, though they could not say for sure.
That evening, rigger Cossey heard on the news that there was a hijacking in progress. Stunned at the revelation, along with the fact authorities had just requested his parachutes, "I thought, 'Oh, crap! There go my parachutes!" " Cosscy recalls. "I was just laugh«: ing at the stupidity of the guy and thought, 'This guy's nuts.'
After the jet landed in Reno, Cossey received another phone call from authorities and learned exactly which parachutes they gave to D.B. Cooper and which parachutes Cooper had left on the aircraft. "The skydiver staying at the loft had grabbed two' of my personal backpacks and two chest packs from the drop zone,"
"The skydiver staying at the loft had grabbed two' of my personal backpacks and two chest packs from the drop zone," he says. "One was my B-4 sport rig, and the other was my Pioncer NB-8, a Navy emergency chute used for pilots."

Andy Farrington demonstrates bor D.B. Cooper may have looked before he exited the hijacked aircraft,
learned that, in his rush to provide the rigs, the skydiver accidentally grabbed the drop zone's dummy reserve, marked with a large "X" and red dosing flaps. The DZ used the dummy" reserve for students to practice deploying the reserve, scooping the canopy out of the container and throwing it into the air and over their heads. Cossey explains, "For the dummy rig, I cut the reserve in half and sewed the panels together so that when the student threw it out, I could just fold it up and put it back in the container in half the time."
Cossey learned over the phone that Cooper took his NB-8 pilot emergency backpack and that his freefall rig remained
"
Cossey learned over the phone that Cooper took his NB-8 pilot emergency backpack and that his freefall rig remained in the air -: craft. "When I learned which rig was missing, I thought, 'Oh, this guy's crazy." " Cossey explains that the Navy emergency backpack Cooper jumped with was specifically designed for pilots for emer -. gency bailouts at potentially low altitudes. The round canopy. designed for extremely fast openings, didn't have a sleeve, much like today's slider, to slow the opening. "That rig has a bad open- ing shock. It'll just rip your crotch apart," Cossey says bluntly.
Compared to the freefall rig, the emergency rig was made of a slick nylon material, had absolutely no padding in the leg straps and was significantly thinner. "The differences in the rigs were obvious," Cossey says, "and anyone with any skydiving experience would definitely take the sport rig." Cossey adds that Cooper may have purposely selected the pilot's rig. "If he had military experience, he may have used the military rig because that's what he was familiar with.
"If he had military experience, he may have used the military rig because that's what he was familiar with."
In addition to the opening shock, Cossey also wonders if Cooper was even able to pull the ripcord, because the ripcord for the Navy emergency rig lies very flat against the pilot's chest. Cossey says, "The ripcords for the sport rigs were bent up so you could easily see and grab them. The Navy rig's ripcord is designed to lie very flat so that it doesn't catch on anything unin -: tentionally. If Cooper was wearing his raincoat, I don't know if
he'd even be able to find and pull the ripcord in the dark."
The dummy reserve marked with an X was also gone. Cossey says, "That reserve was half the density of a regular reserve, and it was obvious to anyone with experience that it wasn't a normal reserve.". Cossey personally believes that Cooper had emptied the dummy reserve, stuffed the cash in its container and wore that on his chest as he jumped.

The Manhunt
By calculating the last verbal contact with Cooper and when the jet's pressure gauges indicated the back stairway snapped shut (with the release of Cooper's weight) and open again, investiga- tors estimated that Cooper most likely exited over the rural and densely forested town of Ariel, Washington. Fifty-foot fir trees cover steep hills, rolling down to the 12-mile-long Lake Merwin.
Authorities combed the area inch by inch, looking for some sign of a parachute, broken trees or branches, money or dothing. They found nothing. How easily something could be overlooked in the difficult terrain was demonstrated by the fact that two elderly women found the body of a missing college student who had been strangled. Authorities had missed it. One wealthy investor, convinced that D.B. Cooper and the cash lay at the bottom of the lake, used his private miniature submarine to search the floor of the lake inch by inch. Again, the search came up empty.
News of the hijacking immediately hit the airwaves all across the United States.
Again, the search came up empty.
News of the hijacking immediately hit the airwaves all across the United States. As authorities searched the area, country roads in, Washington filled with cars and recreational vehicles searching for any sign of a parachute, D.B. Cooper or-especially-the money. In 1971, $200,000 in convenient $20 bills was an immense amount of money, equal to about $900,000 today.
The FBI agent assigned to the case from the moment Cooper" hijacked the Northwest Airlines jet was Ralph Himmelsbach of Oregon. With his piloting experience dating back to the Army Air Corps in the 1940s, Himmelsbach served as the specialist for all aviation violations. With the intense media attention, calls from the public from all around the nation poured in. Needless to say, skydivers were suspect. "Many of the calls we received concerned parachutists," says Himmelsbach. "Often, the subject was a jumper who was also known to be bad, and that combination gave us particular interest."
Agent Himmelsbach goes on to say, "Many innocent citizens found themselves the focal point of FBI interest because of

history of parachuting or just an attitude of thrill-seeking that made someone else suspicious." The FBI investigated about two dozen skydivers, but every suspect either had an alibi for the night of November 24, 1971, or was simply too young to be Cooper.
The Chances of Survival
Whether Cooper pulled off the jump from the Northwest Airlines jet was a source of immense controversy among skydivers at the time. Himmelsbach says, "Skydivers were mixed as to their opinions of the potential success of the jump." Some said Cooper could have easily pulled it off; others said not so because of the weather conditions and the jet's wind blast of almost 170 knots.
" Some said Cooper could have easily pulled it off; others said not so because of the weather conditions and the jet's wind blast of almost 170 knots.
Rigger Cossey says, "If he didn't have any experience, he probably did some awful maneuvers going out of that plane. I've seen jumpers spiral violently and never recover. I don't know if he would have even been able to regain his senses."
Also, Cooper wasn't wearing warm, protective clothing, gog- gles, a helmet, boots or gloves. He jumped in his business suit and slip-on loafers. The fact that he jumped in a suit and tie-but not the fact that he wore one- amazed investigators. In the 1970s, men and women dressed formally for air travel, and for Cooper to have done otherwise would certainly have aroused suspicion.
Cooper apparently planned the hijacking carefully, but it's not dear whether he carefully planned the jump and landing. Investi- gators concluded that Cooper hadn't pre-planned his exit spor, and Himmelsbach says, "It's unknown whether Cooper had survival gear, such as a knife, compass, food or matches, in his pockets.
Investi- gators concluded that Cooper hadn't pre-planned his exit spor, and Himmelsbach says, "It's unknown whether Cooper had survival gear, such as a knife, compass, food or matches, in his pockets."
Military experts advising Himmelsbach noted that a parachute alone is valuable as a survival tool, referring to a manual called "101 Uses of a Parachute for Survival." Other military specialists speculated that perhaps no parachute was found because Cooper buried his gear as soldiers are trained to do.
Effects on Air Travel
Hijackings during this era were common for political purposes, and sky marshals inconspicuously flew on many of the routes. But D.B. Cooper was the first to hijack an airliner for personal gain-and the first to actually make a parachute jump from a jet. Others tried to copy his actions. According to Himmelsbach, "Half a dozen hijackers tried to pull off the same caper in the months following Cooper's extortion, but none got away with it. They either were killed in the jump, overpowered by crew of authorities or captured once on the ground."
It was Approximately 8:15 p.

THE HUNTER
A200
Retired FBI agent Ralph Himmelsbach, beve in front of bis 1952 Beech Bonanza, spent much of his career in search of D.B. Cooper.
By 1970, pre-boarding screening had been in place in some airports for some airlines, but generally, as D.B. Cooper did, passengers simply walked up to the gate and boarded the aircraft with their carry-on luggage. The hijacking of Northwest Airlines flight 305 initiated mandatory FAA screening procedures, and at Himmelsbach's initiative, all aircraft with back staircases became equipped with a locking mechanism called the Cooper's Vain.
Airlines flight 305 initiated mandatory FAA screening procedures, and at Himmelsbach's initiative, all aircraft with back staircases became equipped with a locking mechanism called the Cooper's Vain.
Agen: Himmelsbach also initiated a regulation' mandating that only FBI agents who are experienced pilots may interview hijacked airline pilots. The day of Himmelsbach's retirement, he learned that the plane actually drifted toward the east while the pilot flew it manually. The agent questioning the pilot at the time wasn't a pilot himself and did not pick up this information. Himmelsbach now believes that Cooper exited 40 miles east over Washougal, Washington, which prompted his rule.
Unsolved Mystery
Even with the intense media coverage and the enthusiastic public wanting to help, each and every suspect, lead, investiga- tion and search led to a dead end. Months turned into years, and Himmelsbach and his team were no closer to finding out who D.B. Cooper was, his whereabouts or the result of the jump.
The largest and most significant piece of evidence in the D.B. Cooper mystery came in 1980, when d boy and his family digging a fire pit on the bank of the Columbia River uncovered 12
Cooper mystery came in 1980, when d boy and his family digging a fire pit on the bank of the Columbia River uncovered 12 packets of deteriorated bills under three feet of wet sand. Geologists and hydrologists concluded that the money was deposited there by the river and had been in the sand for years. The $5,880 found matched the serial numbers of Cooper's cash, bur the other 9,706 $20 bills remain unaccounted for.
The FBI continues to receive and investigate phone calls and leads regarding the case, and the file is literally ten feet long. Although Himmelsbach has retired from the FBI, he continues to give interviews to major magazines, newspapers and national and international television programs regarding the case.
The D.B. Cooper case is the only unsolved hijacking in the world. This infamous parachutist consumed Himmelsbach's pro- fessional and sometimes personal life for years. Ironically, he inter- acts with skydivers regularly now, as he hangars his 1952 Bonanza at Skydive Oregon.'He says that pilots and skydivers have a lot in common and admits, "I've associated with a number of skydivers and
'He says that pilots and skydivers have a lot in common and admits, "I've associated with a number of skydivers and have usually gotten along very well with them." Agent Him- melsbach even made a skydive once and says, "It was an enjoyable experience, but I prefer the power and control of an airplane."
As for the whereabouts of D.B. Cooper today -- that unanswered question is what keeps the mystery alive.

Is it a bird ?- Is it a plane?
The pensioner plunges
When the average man reach- es the ripe old age of 71, he might expect a small party, perhaps a big cake or a slurpy bowl of longevity noodles.
But Sheridan Peterson is not what you might call your aver- 1) age man."
For Peterson's idea of a 71st birthday celebration was to throw himself out of a high- flying aeroplane.
He attempted his birthday freefall parachute jump at the Beijing Aero Sports School in Baishan, Changping County recently.
The result?
A few bruises, plus a fourth generation Californian became the oldest person to ever make : a parachute jump in China, .
A few bruises, plus a fourth generation Californian became the oldest person to ever make : a parachute jump in China, .. according to Zhang Angang, the school's head aero sports coach.
"I felt fine until the 'chute opened," Peterson said.
"I was stunned to see that the canopy had only a 28-foot circumference. I had been told that it was a 34-foot canopy.
"I felt certain that I would surely break my ankles: I mean I weigh over 200 pounds.
"Although it was the worst "landing I've ever made - and -I've made some bad ones -. I. only bruised my feet."
Peterson has made a total 262 freefalls. This particular jump was his first in, oh, about 30 years.
" The last one was in Viet Nam in 1967.
Peterson first visited China in the fall of 1946 as a 19-year- old US Marine. For two days, he was stationed at Qingdao, the port city of China's eastern" province of Shandong, better

known as Tsingtao for the beer brewed there. He was in Shang- hai for three days. What he saw in those five days left a lasting impression.
He returned 32 years later in 1978, me a tourist, right after the "cultural revolution" (1966- 1976).
He saw people clad in drab blue and grey uniforms but appearing well fed, a big change from 1946.
His third sojourn was in 1987 as an instructor at the Civil Aviation Institute at Tianjin's international airport.
The following year, he taught a few months in Beijing at the College of Economic Manage- ment.
Two years ago, he returned for the fourth time.
"Each time I come back, China seems like an entirely different country. Things are changing at such a rapid pace especially in Beijing, the cap- ital city," he said.
Ofthe past 32 years, Peterson has spent 30 of them in Asia and the Middle East as a train- ing director for multinational corporations.
Peterson, a fourth genera- tion Californian who grew up on a farm near Santa Rosa north of San Francisco, also took out two and a half years to write a book protesting US
Peterson, a fourth genera- tion Californian who grew up on a farm near Santa Rosa north of San Francisco, also took out two and a half years to write a book protesting US involvement in the Viet Nam War.
After: A record-breaking oldster celebrates with two of his parachute pals.
He made his first parachute jump with the US Forest Ser- vice at Missoula, Montana-in. 1952
He made 30 jumps into wil -- derness areas throughout the Northwest and Pacific Coast.
In 1962, he organized the Boeing Aircraft Company's Sky Diving Club and was safe- ty officer at the Issaqua Sky Port in Seattle. In 1965, while teaching at Clark Air Base in the Philippines, Peterson jumped with four members of the Clark Sky Diving Club to set a new record in Southeast Asia for the highest night de- layed freefall.
Employed as a vocational training director for a construc- tion conglomerate in Viet Nam, he was president of the Saigon Sport Parachute Club, "Nay Du," from 1965 to 1970. The " club members jumped with .. Viet Nam's national skydiving team.
"Those were the best jumps 1 ever made," Peterson said.

"Those were the best jumps 1 ever made," Peterson said. "We used the H-35 Stikorsky Heli- copter. It was so great. Twenty of us could step out into space at the same time."
After his bruising, record- breaking parachute jump, per- haps Peterson will retire grace- fully and take up gardening. And if he needs an adrenalin rush, there's always the odd game of bingo, right?
Yeah, right.
"I'd like to make a bungee jump at Shidu in Beijing's southwestmost . suburb," Peterson said with a broad smile.
"No kidding."

This case remains the only unsolved hijacking in the United States, and is commonly referred to as the "D.B. Cooper" investigation.
Over the years, over one thousand possible subjects have been processed by Seattle with the assistance of virtually every Field Division. Most were quickly eliminated, some required extensive investigation to eliminate, some remained of interest and could not be included or excluded through normal means. To date, the hijacker of Northwest 305, who parachuted from the aircraft with the $200, 000 ransom, has not been identified. As this was a capital offense at the time, DOJ has advised that no statute of limitations exists.
For the information of receiving offices, a recent resubmission of an item handled by the UNSUB in this case has resulted in recovery of male nuclear DNA, which has been deemed suitable for entry into CODIS. The DNA examiner has stated that the DNA likely belongs to the owner/subject. Prior to 2002, no DNA possibly associated with subject COOPER was available.

address was Apache Junction. AZ, should be
contacted and interviewed concerning her claim. Following an assessment of her credibility and a comparison of description with that of COOPER, the interviewing Agent should attempt to locate a DNA sample from effects of Arthur Derham.

Details: To set leads for the Laboratory, DNA1, and Latent Fingerprint Unit.
This case remains the only unsolved hijacking in the United States, and is commonly referred to as the "D.B. Cooper" investigation.
Over the years, over one thousand possible subjects have been processed by Seattle with the assistance of virtually every Field Division. Most were quickly eliminated, some required extensive investigation to eliminate, some remained of interest and could not be included or excluded through normal means. To date, the hijacker of Northwest 305, who parachuted from the aircraft with the $200, 000 ransom, has not been identified. As this was a capital offense at the time, DOJ has advised that no statute of limitations exists.
Above items were provided by DUANE LORIN WEBER (deceased) . has long held that WEBER told her on his deathbed that he hijacked referenced flight.
Above items were provided by DUANE LORIN WEBER (deceased) . has long held that WEBER told her on his deathbed that he hijacked referenced flight.
Laboratory, DNA1 is requested to extract DNA from any of the items numbered 1-15 deemed suitable and compare to DNA retrieved under referenced Laboratory number. Latent Fingerprint Section is requested to retrieve latents from item 16, and from 1-15 (after DNA collection) . DNA collection is the priority with items 1-15. Any latents developed should be compared with the known fingerprints of DUANE LORIN WEBER, FBI#3552803.

As hijacking was a capital offense at the time, DOJ has advised that no statute of limitations exists.
For the information of VCMOS and receiving offices, a recent resubmission of an item connected to the UNSUB, has resulted in recovery of male nuclear DNA. This DNA was suitable for entry into CODIS and for identification and elimination. Seattle has identified the below individuals from which a DNA sample is desired to process a comparison.
A review is being conducted in Seattle to identify possible candidates for DNA comparison. It is expected that this review process will be lengthy, and leads will be set out in several groups.
Due to the extensive and counterproductive media coverage that may result from these contacts, all offices are requested to exercise discretion in dealing with these leads.
Due to the extensive and counterproductive media coverage that may result from these contacts, all offices are requested to exercise discretion in dealing with these leads. Some of these suspects may have known they were considered a person of interest, others may not. Likewise the families may, or may not be aware. In cases where the suspect is alive, oral swabs should be solicited. In cases where the subject is deceased, all methods to include hair from shavers, brushes, salvia from postage stamps, etc. should be considered. In those cases where recovery of these items are not possible, obtain proper death and burial records. Contact Seattle case agent before asking family members for any exhumation authority.
Obtain samples by one of the following methods, in the following order of priority:
1. Oral swabs from suspect (best)
2. Toothbrush, shaver, brush, comb belonging to suspect, or envelope with saliva on flap or stamp (second best) .
3. Oral swabs from both surviving parents (third best) .
4. Oral swab from two of suspect's natural children. (fourth best) .
Oral swabs from both surviving parents (third best) .
4. Oral swab from two of suspect's natural children. (fourth best) .
All family or possible suspects contacted should be advised that this is merely another investigative step following advancement in technologies. No mention of the recovery of DNA evidence should be made. Care should be given so persons contacted are not lead to believe that they or their family member are a suspect of great interest in this case. Media discussions should be avoided. Refer any media inquiries without comment to the Seattle Media Coordinator, SA at b6 b7C b7E
Any follow up leads to obtain these samples should be set by receiving offices with a copy to Seattle.
