What does the scan show?
A person reads every report. Corrections are made by hand, to the data — titles, dates, names, which pages belong together — never to the scans, and they can take a while to appear.

The following investigation was conducted by SA [REDACTED] on 04/22/1997 at Pensacola, Florida.
[REDACTED] social security number [REDACTED] Pensacola, Florida, telephone [REDACTED] advised that he and [REDACTED] [REDACTED], social security number [REDACTED] bought a 1986 Chevy Astro Van from [REDACTED] on 06/01/1995.
Approximately one week later, as he was cleaning and deodorizing the van, he found a wallet containing several pieces of identification. The wallet was found in the rear of the overhead compartment. [REDACTED] called [REDACTED] and told her he had found a wallet in the van. He said she became very excited when he told her what he had found. [REDACTED] returned the wallet to [REDACTED]. Upon arriving at her house, he observed her walking around her yard brandishing a hand gun at some construction workers who were working nearby. He returned the wallet and left.
---
[REDACTED] said [REDACTED] called several times after he had returned the wallet. She wanted to know if he had found anything else in the van. He told her that he had not found anything other than the wallet which he had returned to her. [REDACTED] refused to believe him. She insisted that he found something else besides the wallet. [REDACTED] told her not to call him [REDACTED] anymore.
---
[REDACTED] curiosity was peaking after [REDACTED] told him that [REDACTED] [REDACTED] might be D.B. Cooper. He said he checked the headliner and pulled the carpet back to see if the van might have contained any money. The van was completely void of any money. [REDACTED] is having the headliner replaced and the upholstery cleaned in the van. During the process, he is going to have the panels removed and he will check the van thoroughly for anything peculiar. He agreed to contact the writer if he found anything.
