JACKSON and this artist's conception. She described VERNE JACKSON as a white male, 50 years of age, 6', 160 to 180 pounds, black hair, graying at temples, slight build, very white, pale complexion, and definitely not Latin in appearance.
---
On 2/7/73, [REDACTED] advised [REDACTED] VERNE A. JACKSON, had a severe stroke in March 1971, and has been a semi-invalid since that time. She said VERNE JACKSON had died in January 1973 and his condition in November 1971, was such that it would have been impossible for him to have been involved in any type of strenuous activity.

[REDACTED] displayed a photograph of [REDACTED] [REDACTED] taken shortly prior to his death and this photograph was not noted to closely resemble the artist's conception of unknown subject.
---
In view of the above, it does not appear VERNE JACKSON should be considered a logical suspect in this matter and no further investigation is being conducted at Los Angeles, unless advised to the contrary by Seattle.
