At FBI-Seattle's request, FBI-Phoenix interviewed [REDACTED] and she provided items that may have DNA evidence from Derham on them for comparison to male nuclear DNA recovered from an item handled by UNSUB, aka "D.B. Cooper": an upper denture plate and a collection of hair that Derham saved after he began to go bald. [REDACTED] said she will attempt to find other personal objects which belonged to Derham.

---

[REDACTED] Arizona driver's license (#327266181) for [REDACTED] deceased [REDACTED] Arthur B. Derham, who is also noted as having blue eyes. The DOB on the Arizona driver's license is 02/07/1933, [REDACTED] [REDACTED] provided Derham's middle name as "Boy", [REDACTED] and his POB as Knoxville, Illinois [REDACTED].

An ACS indices review identified several references to Derham which have been provided to FBI-Seattle, including three serials (901, 902, and 1026) from 1989 under IP 213A-28 which could not be viewed in ACS.

---

All items in referenced package copies are to be examined as set forth below:

1) DNA-1 (Attention: [REDACTED]) will attempt to recover useable DNA material from the dentures and any hair roots and compare to DNA samples previously developed in this case.

2) Latent Fingerprint Section will compare any latent fingerprints of UNSUB developed in this case with known prints of Arthur Berge Derham.
