Created the first untouchables a generation before Ness. Oldfield was in charge of entire investigation nationwide. He recruited local, state, federal, and Pinkertons. Really the first national interagency collaboration.

What is an Obsession? DB ‘Dan’ Cooper has been a constant thought — question of mine for Decades. What happened?
D. B. Cooper, also known as Dan Cooper, was an unidentified man who hijacked Northwest Orient Airlines Flight 305, a Boeing 727 aircraft, in United States airspace on November 24, 1971. During the flight from Portland, Oregon, to Seattle, Washington, Cooper told a flight attendant he had a bomb, demanded $200,000 in ransom.
After releasing the passengers in Seattle, Cooper instructed the flight crew to refuel the aircraft and begin a second flight to Mexico City, with a refueling stop in Reno, Nevada. About thirty minutes after taking off from Seattle, Cooper opened the aircraft’s aft door, deployed the staircase, and parachuted into the night over southwestern Washington.
