Then maybe my long time theory that he landed next to the Columbia River and made his escape in this submarine is true.
And in 1970 you could get one for just $6.98

You said — “Then maybe my long time theory that he landed next to the Columbia River and made his escape in this submarine is true.”

Well, that’s not the working theory about the money found at the shoreline of the Columbia River. Rather — it’s that it washed down one of about three possible tributaries and washed up along the shoreline of the Columbia, about that point and was buried in the sandy shore. And they figure that Cooper jumped a bit further north into a very heavily wooded area and was killed (or somehow escaped, having lost the loot).
In any case, the marked bills have never *once* shown up anywhere as having been spent.

And by the way, there has been a Florida woman who says that she’s convinced that she was married to Cooper, but didn’t know it at the time. She says that he left a bit of information and she had some clues to that effect. She’s been “working on the case” to prove that she was married to him, after that hijacking. I don’t believe she knew him at the time of the hijacking.
I don’t think the FBI buys into her story, but it is somewhat compelling when you look into her details. There may be some DNA evidence that the FBI has, from the cigarettes that Cooper was smoking on board the plane.
I’ll see if I can find that woman’s name, somewhere...
Okay, I said I would look for that woman who said she was married to Cooper... I found her name...
She is Jo Weber.
If you go to this webpage and look down the page to find...
===== “Duane L. Weber (aka John C. Collins)” =====
that will be the story about that particular woman who said she was married to D.B. Cooper.
Furthermore, a few years back I saw her posting on a particular forum, trying to get information from people in that area of the country (where D.B. Cooper jumped) so she could go on investigative trips out there to check some things out, about the story that her husband told her, when she was married to him. I don’t know if I can find that particular forum again. I don’t even know if the woman is still alive; I presume she is...
