Sometime before 2:00pm, 11/24/1971, a man appeared @flyPDX. Seemingly out of nowhere. He just… appeared among the 2,500 passengers already in the terminal. From the mist, ethereal; all that shit.

[In this video I lay out my 5 sources for this here #DBCooper aTwitterin. Cause if you don’t care about sources… I don’t think that we roll in the same crew. ]
We know NOTHING about this man, before 2:00pm PST. How did he get to the airport? Did he take a taxi, a bus, get dropped off by a co-conspirator? A connecting flight? Did he have bourbon&7 at the Zodiac Room at like 1:30 to calm his nerves? No fucking idea…
Just before 2pm PST, DKC is gonna live tweet the #DBCooper hijacking as it played out, minute-by-minute, exactly 50 years later. And we'll start this story at @flypdx!
Hope you can join me for the only unsolved skyjacking in US history. Real Time!

If you need some background on the Cooper case, I wrote a few features this year that will fill you in. The first is in @PoMoMagazine and looks at the legend that is DB Cooper. pdxmonthly.com/news-and-city-…
I also reviewed all 22,000+ pages of @FBI files on the case, and wrote about them for @portlandmercury. portlandmercury.com/blogtown/2021/…
49 years ago yesterday #DBCooper successfully perpetrated the most famous unsolved skyjacking crime. Or did he? I provided legal counsel to cold case team that believes we solved the mystery.
Tonight, I'm discussing new @TheHisotry program on case.

2/ I've worked this case for several years. Our cold case team incl experts in law, law enforcement, forensics, cryptology, journalism & other relevant areas. First hand witnesses were interviewed & we were regularly in touch with @FBI.
3/I had no idea @TheHisotry was producing program. No one connected to it reached out to our cold case team, which was more than 40 people.
There are many theories abt hijacking & I was surprised they didn't contact us if only to compare notes. Our efforts were high profile.
