[redacted] had no home address for HORTON but did furnish a photograph of him which was taken by the Multnomah County, Oregon, Sheriff's Office--Number 13742, on 5/20/70. This photograph was displayed to Northwest Airlines stewardesses, who advised he did not resemble the Unsub. [redacted] however, pointed out that the photograph shown is not a good likeness of HORTON inasmuch as he usually weighs more and has a fuller face.
