TO: SAC, SEATTLE (164A-81)

FROM: [redacted] SAC, PORTLAND (164A-41) (RUC)

SUBJECT: NORJAK (OO: Seattle)

Re Seattle airtel to Portland, 2/11/81.

Enclosed for Seattle is one packet of four photographs.

Referenced airtel set out leads for enclosed photographs to be shown to [redacted] Eugene, Oregon.

Portland notes that the photograph of suspect, [redacted] [redacted] was not accompanied by appropriate throw-down photo- graphs which would be required in the event that [redacted] makes a positive identification. In view of the fact that the photograph of [redacted] has been altered by the special projects unit so as to depict [redacted] with the same hair as shown in the artist's conception of D.B. COOPER, Portland would have no way of independently coming up with additional photographs which are similar in appearance so that the photograph of [redacted] is not unique.

Prior to the display of any witnesses in this matter, an appropriate photo spread should be developed to meet any legal challenge to any identifications which might result.

Portland has placed this case in an RUC status.
