I'd just like to know how an Federal agent with a job to do and didn't even do due diligence was conned? Let me rephrase that, an FBI agent who didn't do
ANYTHING?
OD
My question is this:
Did they really just have one agent leading this whole investigation?
I find it so amazing/hard to believe that no one else said, "Hey, do you think we could have been off on the description? Do you think it's possible Mayfield could be our guy? Do you think we should look at him one more time just to rule him out?"
And that H-back would have the weight to say no without it coming back to bite him in the butt.
Really???
Who else worked on this?
Thats what I am saying too--- how do you get conned when you do no digging?
I meant digging on YOUR guy !!But he did. Once he got a tip about a logger, who retired at 45, and started a new business. the guy had no criminal record, no skydiving experience, wasn't a pilot, etc.
But, H-bach did do his job. He asked the guy where he was that night. the guy had an alibi, h-bach checked it out, and eliminated him

does make you wonder.
Is this stupidity, tunnel vision, or worse.
Heck, Ted even assisted the FBI with the investigation.
HE was nice enough to let the FBI look through his records, and h-bach would even call Ted and ask him about certain suspects, and TEd would identify the suspects.
One guy Ted helped identify was in jail. Gee, I wonder how he knew him?

and I wonder why h-bach felt so comfortable asking for his help???
I dont know lc........I think h-bach & teddy might be much better friends than ever thought---
We have not ruled anything out in this case.
We have considered all scenarios from the beginning.
We know we have Cooper, but, is that the entire story?

maybe not........perhaps just chapter one ! :crazy:
Did anyone ever find the IE segment online?
This is a basic questions that has already been addressed, but what is Mayfield's alibi for that night? Just the phone call?
Also, was a picture of Mayfiled from 1971 shown to the witnesses?
Just the phone call at 10pm
the FBI never did show a picture of Mayfield to the flight attendants.

isnt that fbi 101 or something???? :doh: :doh: :doh:
lc, what has teddy told you & your partner he was doing that night, or was it not asked of him?
uhmmm....didnt COOPER have a bit of trouble with this himself, or question how to do it??Yes, it is FBI 101. :doh: :doh: :doh: :doh: :doh:
We didn't have to ask Teddy.
First time we told Teddy we were writing a book about DB Cooper, he immediately went into his alibi.
Teddy's story is that the FBI called him 4 times while the hijacker was on the jet.
The first time was looking for chutes and his expertise. Tedd claims he told the FBI to call EC.
Then, Teddy tells the FBI, "well, I'm going out to dinner with my girlfriend, here's her number if you need to speak to me"
Then, supposedly, according to Teddy, the FBI called him back 3 more times. ASking him "If a person could possibly leapt from the rear of a 727 safely. Teddy told them, if he can get the stairs down, then you bet."
A very, very hard story to believe.
First, the FBI says this never happened.
Second, why didn't the fBI ask Teddy to deliver the chutes to the Portland airport as a precaution, just in case EC wasn't home. How did Teddy know EC would be available the night before Thanksgiving. Why would the FBI first call a rigger in Portland, when the chutes were needed in Seattle, some 150 miles away.
Third, if Teddy didn't help with the chutes, why in the heck would the FBI ask him for skydiving advice. In Seattle, they had EC, Ft.Lewis, and McChord, filled with specialists.
Fourth, the hijacker threatens to kill 42 people, and Teddy decides to go out to dinner? Please. And we are suppose to believe he helped in the search for Cooper. NOt consistent.
