HABITS

Unsub drinks in moderation and is probably not an alcoholic. Unsub ordered one bourbon and seven at the be- ginning of the flight and although he was offered several free drinks later, he turned them down. This would indicate that Unsub possessed sufficient willpower to refuse alcohol in a tension-filled situation. It is believed an alcoholic or a former alcoholic who had just had one drink and was placed in a situation of similar stress would succumb to the pressure and imbibe in the free drinks offered him by the stewardesses.

Located in the ashtray utilized by Unsub were eight cigarette butts, seven of which have been identified by the FBI Laboratory as Raleigh filter cigarettes, and the eighth cigarette is possibly the same. These cigar- ettes are sold in a "soft pack". Unsub was in the aircraft eight hours in an extremely tense situation. During the eight hours, he had eight cigarettes. A two-pack-a-day smoker would have consumed 20 cigarettes in eight hours under normal circumstances. It is felt Unsub may possibly smoke less than one pack a day.

CLOTHES

Located in Seat 18 E (the seat Unsub occupied) was a black clip-on tie which contained a tie clip des- cribed as yellow gold in color, with a white pearl circular stone in the center. The label in the tie bore the name "Towncraft" and bore the legend "Store 3, Penneys". The label in this tie showed it to be a "Snapper" patent type tie. Investigation at Las Vegas indicated this type tie was sold for about $1.50 and that this particular tie was about a year to a year and a half old. It was a favorite item for individuals such as waiters, busboys and barten- ders.

Stewardess [REDACTED] has said that this tie, found on the aircraft, was probably Unsubs and other witnesses have indicated he wore a similar type tie.
