Result of examination:

As previously indicated in FBI Laboratory number PC-H3225 MC, report dated December 9, 1971, a brown head hair clipping of Caucasian origin was found on the Q2 towel. This hair is dissimilar to the hairs in the K9 head hair sample and, based on the hairs in K9, could not be associated with [REDACTED]

No extortion or demand notes used in the hijacking were ever recovered.

No meaningful comparisons of the writing of [REDACTED] can be conducted in this matter.

Photographs of K10 are retained.

Specimens K7 through K10 will be returned as enclosures to Jackson Division and the resubmitted glass microscope slide will be returned as an enclosure to Las Vegas Division.
