RE: [REDACTED]

On 7/27/72, Sheriff RICHARD NICHOL of Chelan County called and advised that he had talked to a [REDACTED] who he suspects either lives in Renton or Everett, and who owns some vacation property near Lake Wenatchee, Washington. Sheriff NICHOL describes [REDACTED] as a [REDACTED] but not with- standing has on numerous occasions in the past furnished Sheriff NICHOL some substantial information in the criminal field. He advised that the suspect was born and raised around [REDACTED] Washington. He has [REDACTED] who lived in that immediate vicinity by the [REDACTED]. He is a skydiver and formerly worked for an airlines that uses Boeing 727s. Evidently [REDACTED] is the object of substantial inquiry among some hoodlum elements that are endeavoring to establish whether he actually is the skyjacker of the airlines as he looks somewhat like the sketch and if so to rip off the $200,000 or what remains of it.
