FBI internal communication form header from Philadelphia (Scranton Resident Agency) to Seattle field office, dated April 8, 2008, regarding case NORJAK (SE 164A-81, sub-file 9478). Routine precedence. A complainant from Stroudsburg, PA telephoned the Scranton Resident Agency to report that a man he knew in the early 1970s may be D.B. Cooper. The complainant had a neighbor and acquaintance who lived in Reeders, Monroe County, PA. He saw a recent composite sketch of Cooper and believes his former acquaintance resembles Cooper. He has not seen this person in a long time and believes the person may have had cancer and possibly passed away. The investigating agent conducted a Lexis Nexis search and identified an individual with a previous address in Reeders, PA. The telephone number matched, and the person was associated with another individual. However, the identified person was only a certain number of years old in 1971. No additional family members were identifiable to establish a link. The complainant recalled allegations of the acquaintance being involved in criminal activity including embezzlement. He described the person as a loner and had not seen him in 20 years. Handwritten notation 'Nojak' at the top right of the page, likely a variant spelling or shorthand for NORJAK. Bates stamp or page identifier at bottom right of page.
