At 8:20 PM on November 24, 1971, I talked to
SA DON HANNING at the Bureau. I told him there was a
substantial number of the members of the press in the
immediate vicinity of the airport and they were extremely
anxious to have a statement from the Bureau. I advised
him that I proposed that I go to them and outline the
essential facts of the case so far as sequence of events
are concerned and the present status. In this, after
checking with Northwest Airlines officials I would advise
them that $200,000 had been paid to the kidnapper by
Northwest Airlines, that four parachutes had been furnished
to him, and that the plane was then aloft enroute to either
Reno, Nevada, Sacramento, California or Medford, Oregon.
He advised this would be satisfactory.
