The FBI has released a typewritten letter that was sent to a number of major media outlets in late 1971 by someone claiming to be the infamous D.B. Cooper.
The mysterious missive, which had been kept classified by the bureau until last month, was made public in response to an FOIA lawsuit filed by filmmaker and recent C2C guest Tom Colbert.
In the letter, the author declares that "I knew from the start that I wouldn’t be caught" and goes on to explain that the heist was not intended to be the theatrical display of high risk that it was portrayed in the media.
The self-proclaimed skyjacker also says that he "can never" be caught because he left behind no fingerprints, wore a disguise during the caper, and is "not a boastful man."
