Title: NORJAK; CAA-HIJACKING
---
Synopsis: To submit evidence for DNA analysis.
Package Copy: Being forwarded under separate cover is one original airline ticket (1B21) and one snap on black tie with gold tie clip (1B7).
Enclosures: Original Laboratory reports regarding above items.
Details: As the Laboratory is aware, captioned case involves the hijacking of Northwest flight 305 destined for Seattle on 11/24/1971 by an unknown subject. In spite of exhaustive investigation over the years, the subject remains unidentified. This case has national significance and remains the only unresolved airplane hijacking in U.S. history. As this was a capital offense at the time, no statute of limitation exists. Retrieval of any DNA could be very useful as a DNA profile could be used to eliminate subjects that are still being brought to the attention of Seattle
The above items were originally submitted to the Laboratory in late 1971 for fingerprint analysis (ticket) and manufacture analysis (tie and clip)with negative results. No DNA testing was ever done. Prior reports from the LAB related to the examination of the tie and clip are attached for reference. As these are the only items absolutely known to have been handled by the UNSUB in this case, they are being resubmitted at this time for DNA analysis. If appropriate, and following the DNA work, the ticket (1B21) should be also resubmitted for latents.
