The Case of D.B. Cooper Part 2
07/24/20 • 36 min
On Thanksgiving Eve 1971, America's most famous skyjacking occurred upon Northwest Orient Airlines' flight 307, on course from Portland, Oregon to Seattle Washington. The mystery of who would have done it and why still intrigues professional investigators and internet sleuths alike.
Criminal Intent’s host, De Andra Kenoly, will take a look at seven suspects that were on the FBI's list. These were the ones we felt were the most compelling and interesting. Without having any hard evidence to pin it on a particular person, these suspects were subsequently taken off.
A special thanks to Colm Whelan for researching and co-writing this script.

A young woman is found dead in a hotel room in Sacramento, California on a late February night in 2020. The case of Taylor Blackwell goes viral on social media, and garnered local news attention. Her mother is looking for answers into the nature of her daughter’s death, but is met with silence, misinformation, and even deception.
