A woman claiming to be the niece of infamous
skyjacker D.B. Cooper has spoken to ABC News in an
exclusive interview about her role in the recently re-
ignited 40-year-old cold case that has haunted the
FBI for years.
Marla Cooper told ABC News that she has provided
the FBI with a guitar strap and a Christmas photo of a
man pictured with the same strap who she says is her
uncle, Lynn Doyle Cooper.
After clarifying her childhood memories surrounding
the incident and more recent conversations with her
parents, she is now sure that her uncle is in fact the
notorious man who hijacked and threatened to blow
up a commercial plane flying to Seattle in 1971, then
parachuted to the ground with $200,000 in hand.
"I'm certain he was my uncle, Lynn Doyle Cooper. Who
we called L.D. Cooper," she told ABC News.
