Dear Sir:
Thank you for your letter expressing your willingness to help in solving one of the most mysterious crimes of the decade. As you know, the Federal Bureau of Investigation is working quite diligently to solve this crime and assistance by private citizens is much appreciated.
Specifically, the reward for the $200,000 is $25,000 or 15% of any amount returned less than the full amount. As to your second request, unfortunately copies of maps of that area are not available.
If you have any specific information of value, please do not hesitate to contact your local office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and provide that information to them.
Thank you again for your letter.
Very truly yours,
Philip T. Basher, Special Agent in Charge
