1-336 (Rev. 6-17-76) FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION Washington, D. C. 20537 REPORT of the IDENTIFICATION DIVISION LATENT FINGERPRINT SECTION

YOUR FILE NO. 164-81 FBI FILE NO. 164-2111 LATENT CASE NO. A-45410 October 26, 1976

TO: SAC, Seattle

[handwritten, upper right, partially illegible: "Sub 845" or "SW845"]

RE: NORJAK

REFERENCE: Airtel 10/6/76 EXAMINATION REQUESTED BY: Seattle SPECIMENS:

---

Sixty-nine previously reported unidentified latent fingerprints in the captioned case are not identical with the fingerprints of Billy Jewel Sparks, born 3/5/32, FBI #819659J9. The remaining unidentified latent fingerprints, which were made by tips, sides, and lower joint areas of fingers, and the unidentified latent impressions were compared with the available fingerprints of Sparks, but no identification was effected. Inasmuch as the fingers of Sparks are not completely recorded in all cases, and palm prints are not available for this individual, major case prints of Sparks are needed for conclusive comparisons.

AI notes

Commentary by the AI model that transcribed this page. It may bring in context the page itself does not state. The scan is the source; the transcript is machine-generated from it.

FBI Identification Division letterhead and form header fields identifying the file numbers, date, recipient (SAC Seattle), case reference (NORJAK), and the reference airtel that prompted the report. The report states that 69 previously unidentified latent fingerprints from the NORJAK case do not match Billy Jewel Sparks. Remaining unidentified prints were also compared to Sparks with no match, but conclusive comparison is not possible without additional major case prints and palm prints from Sparks. Signature block for the Assistant Director of the Identification Division, with a handwritten case-number annotation replacing the struck-through 'FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY' distribution notice, and an archival stamp/number at the bottom of the page.

Typed text is clear and high-contrast; a few handwritten annotations and the signature are cursive and partially illegible.
