D.B. Cooper

from Crime at Bedtime

On 24 November 1971, a quiet man calling himself Dan Cooper hijacked Northwest Orient Flight 305, collected $200,000 in cash and four parachutes… then stepped out of a Boeing 727 into the night over the Pacific Northwest. In this episode of Mysteries at Bedtime, we walk calmly through the hijacking, the strange decisions Cooper made, the ransom money found in 1980, and the 2016 FBI decision to suspend the case.
