About this listen
In this episode, Scott Rolle is joined by Buddy Levy, his co-star from the History Channel's Brad Meltzer's DECODED, to revisit the only unsolved skyjacking in American history. On Thanksgiving Eve 1971, a man calling himself Dan Cooper boarded a Northwest Orient Airlines flight, handed a stewardess a bomb threat note, collected $200,000 and four parachutes, and leaped into the night sky over the Pacific Northwest without a trace. Scott and Buddy break down the crime itself, the airport security lapses that made it possible, and the circumstantial case building against their top suspect, Kenny Christiansen. From a hidden stash of cash and a suspiciously well-timed home purchase to a deathbed secret and a hidden compartment in the attic, does the evidence finally point to D.B. Cooper's true identity?
