Re Seattle memo of SA CHARLES E. FARRELL dated 4/3/73.

After several attempts, HARRY NAGAMATSU, 559 Northeast 95th, Seattle, Washington, telephone 522-2756, was interviewed on April 25, 1973, and furnished essentially the same information as stated in referenced memo. NAGAMATSU was shown the composite of D. B. COOPER and advised that the individual in question, MC KINNIS, did not look at all similar to the composite, although the facial features were alike. NAGAMATSU said that MC KINNIS had gray hair and was balding and was much slimmer than the composite. NAGAMATSU said the only reason he contacted the FBI regarding MC KINNIS was due to the fact that MC KINNIS had several $20 bills in his possession and told him that he was D. B. COOPER. NAGAMATSU said that he thought it was strange that he should indicate that he was D. B. COOPER and thought that this may be one of the ways he was able to elude the FBI for this period of time. NAGAMATSU could furnish no other description of MC KINNIS or add anything to the information he furnished in the referenced memorandum.
