Dear [REDACTED],

This letter will confirm in writing a telephone conversation between you and Special Agent [REDACTED] on August 6, 1980. Furthermore, this letter is in regards to a letter from the Seattle Division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation to you, dated June 18, 1980, which concerned the "D. B. Cooper" hijacking case.

On July 29, 1980, the Seattle FBI Office received from you a set of inked fingerprints (right and left thumb) of one Jack Scott Farmer, Date of Birth May 22, 1944. These fingerprints were forwarded to the Identification Division of the FBI at Washington, D. C., and were compared with the latent fingerprints located on the skyjacked aircraft. On August 6, 1980, the Identification Division telephonically contacted the Seattle Division to advise that the comparison had been completed and that the prints of Farmer do not match the latent fingerprints from the aircraft.

The original fingerprints which you provided the FBI will be returned to you by separate communication. Your assistance in this investigation is greatly appreciated.

Very truly yours,

Paul L. Mack Special Agent in Charge

By:

[REDACTED] Supervisory Special Agent
