Back Taxes Owed By D.B. Cooper
PORTLAND, Ore. — (AP) — D. B. (Dan) Cooper, the sky pirate who vanished somewhere between Seattle and Reno in 1971, now owes the federal government more than the $200,000 he took with him. The Internal Revenue Service says Cooper owes $218,635 in taxes on the money he extorted. That's assuming he's alive, single and never filed a return on the money. The man who gave his name as Dan Cooper hijacked a Northwest Orient Airliner at Portland, demanding $200,000. He parachuted out of the plane, unobserved, and was never seen again.
The search eventually closed in on a wooded area of southwest Washington, but no sign of Cooper or the money ever has surfaced. The IRS figures Cooper would be taxed $53,090 on the first $100,000 and $70,000 on the next $100,000. If he intended to cheat the government out of its share, the civil fraud penalty is 50 per cent of the tax due, or $61,545. Interest at 7 per cent a year is another $34,000. Total: $218,635. That, of course, doesn't include a late filing penalty of $30,671, and a late payment penalty of $7,300 per year.
