Grief, Not Greed: New Theory on Hijacker's Motive
14 Dec
Summary
- New theory suggests hijacker acted out of grief, not financial gain.
- Inventor links retired Army major to the decades-old mystery.
- Personal tragedy and forensic clues support the new claim.
More than fifty years after the infamous D.B. Cooper disappearance, a novel theory suggests the hijacker's motives stemmed from profound grief, not avarice. An inventor and pilot has put forth the idea that a retired Army major might be the enigmatic figure responsible for the skyjacking.
This compelling argument is bolstered by the major's personal history of tragedy, which reportedly aligns with known circumstances surrounding the event. Forensic links and family testimonies are also cited as evidence supporting this new perspective on the enduring mystery.
While this theory offers a fresh angle on a case that has baffled investigators for decades, it faces skepticism from other researchers. The debate continues as the true identity and fate of D.B. Cooper remain unresolved.
