Re Latent Fingerprint Section Form 1-336 dated 12/18/75, and Seattle letter to the Bureau dated 2/3/76.

Re Seattle communication requests information as to why four individuals were considered suspects in captioned matter.

For information of Seattle, on 11/28/75, [REDACTED] Drug Enforcement Administration, Washington, D. C., had telephonically contacted Associate Director H. P. Callahan and advised that there had been two recent plane crashes (one in the Georgia area and the other in Tennessee) in which drug trafficking was involved. [REDACTED] felt there was the possibility that one of the individuals involved may be the unknown subject in captioned case, Also Known As Dan Cooper.

Investigation conducted through FBIH[Q] revealed that the four individuals stated in referenced Seattle communication were involved in these crashes. A physical descriptive comparison, as well as a fingerprint comparison were conducted with negative results.

Further investigation concerning these suspects does not appear warranted at this time.
