UNSUB, aka Dan Cooper
NORTHWEST AIRLINES FLIGHT 305
PORTLAND TO SEATTLE, 11/24/71
CAA - HIJACKING; EXTORTION
On 12/7/71 SA [REDACTED] called from the
Bureau and advised that they had just sent up a memo to
the Director recommending that the Bureau make a national press
release concerning the availability of the serial numbers
of the money paid to the hijacker. I had discussed this with
[REDACTED] and SA [REDACTED] on 12/6/71 and recommended
that it be done, and at the same time encourage the publica-
tion of the list by any newspaper inclined to do so.
I suggested that the public be advised that the
numbers were in the NCIC and that they could be checked
immediately.
