On May 10, 1972, the "Seattle Flag", a liberal newspaper in Seattle, ran an article concerning this matter. In the article the "Flag" editor reportedly had a conversation with an individual who claimed to be identical with unsub in this matter. As part of the evidence to substantiate his claim, unsub reportedly made available xerox copies of a $20 bill which was reportedly part of the ransom money. The serial number on this bill was L51279635A, series 1969.
It is noted that the serial number of the $20 bill used in the Seattle "Flag" article is identical with the $20 bill recently obtained from Secret Service, who in turn obtained it from a local Seattle service station. This $20 bill was passed by a white female who apparently did not know of the alteration that had been made to it. The last three digits in the serial number have been changed by cutting out three digits from a $1 bill and inserting them into a $20 bill, using scotch tape.
This $20 bill will be retained in the 1A section of the Seattle file 164-81.
