Header of an FBI inter-office memo from Los Angeles to Seattle regarding the D.B. Cooper case, file number 164A-81-AMW-2, dated 06/11/1998. A redacted account describing someone's telephone information linked to Texas and their conversations about the D.B. Cooper incident while in the northwest/Oregon. The individual reportedly always made certain statements about the incident. Continuation of witness statement recalling events and locations in Texas; heavily redacted. The witness was unable to provide additional information regarding a redacted subject during a certain period of time. A person states they had originally been working on the D.B. Cooper matter and mentions another individual who may have information and has a New York telephone number, but doubts the information is pertinent. Someone contacted a Sheriff's Office in Texas about a possible D.B. Cooper story. The Sheriff confirmed the individual in question was known locally and had already been eliminated by the FBI as a Cooper suspect. Los Angeles FBI office notes it is not fully aware of the investigation scope. Based on available information, the Texas subject appears previously eliminated, but LA has no actual basis for this conclusion. Document tracking/Bates number.
