I really hope that Luigi does get acquitted. I mean if it is factual that he didn’t do it and the real killer is out there… well then, I guess Luigi still got lots of fame, but at the same time we will also be happy that the real guy is not only free, but the mystery of who he is will make him cooler.
It’s Dan Cooper, my son, DB was coined by the press to throw them off a little more.
I am getting old. Very old. It was never about the money. The bit found in 1980 was never intentional. I did it to try to show how security was far too weak and a message to Nixon. I got hurt but I made it out. Burned my old outfit. I landed only a little far off my intended mark where I had stashed more proper winter attire to trek through the forest. Police were helpful in future proofing my crimes. Those cigarettes I smoked and that stir stick on the bourbon and coke cocktail I had? They could have been used to eventually identify my DNA. But they were gotten rid of. Very helpful. I quit smoking and drinking right after.
It was hard. But I had a change of heart. Was it really going to spark a change? That high jacking? Was the 200K I took going to do anything? I had time to think in my trek back, I realized it didn’t matter ultimately. I wasn’t alone back then, but I am now. Mr. Miner (that’s what I will call him) who stole the dynamite and fashioned the bomb I had? He died in a mining accident not too long after. And miss glamour (what i will call her) who helped with the makeup job so well that it hid my true appearance. I don’t look a thing like the composite drawing. She passed away, struck by a drunk who couldn’t take no for an answer.
Now I am alone and I am not long for this world. I had to keep my identity secret because mysteries allow people to fill in their own details. I did want to change the world somewhat… and I did. Airport security implemented after me aided in stopping the spree of hijackings that was so endemic to the time.

It’s like DB Cooper!
Except DB Cooper was just a crook who was only after money. The shooter had an actual statement to make.
You say that with confidence but he could have had a manifesto that was lost with his body and the money.
Unless… D.B.?

You want to know who I really am? I finally worked up the courage to say it here
