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.

After the make-up artist finished with the trowel to get enough make-up on to Marla Cooper, she told ABC "news", I'm ready for my close-up now.

Marla’s story is fishy to me.

I agree, I can’t recall any adult conversations when I was that young. Anything is possible though.

This wouldn't surprise me at all: despite their vaunted reputation, the FBI doesn't seem to be able to catch anyone.
They are really good at getting lots of information and filing it somewhere but they couldn't catch a cold in the Winter. Look at all the goods they had on Jane Fonda for treason but they never even gave her a parking ticket.

Not to worry, the FB1 always does great press conferences.

Sounds fishy to me too.
"I heard my uncle say we did it, our money problems are over, we hijacked an airplane," she said.
"I'm not convinced that he wasn't on somewhat of a suicide mission. I really think he jumped out not expecting to live," she said.
These two statements don't add up. If it was planned as a suicide mission, how did they expect to get the money to the family to use?
