So, what's next, the removal of the partial fingerprints? why didn't they mention that?
1) remove DNA
2) Description probably wrong (shorter guy)
3) Fingerprints are partials...they need to disappear too (possibility of a false hit)
They should be able to narrow it down to people missing that crazy day. if you don't match the description what so ever, and were possibly missing during that time period, you should be in the front of the line as a Cooper suspect. seems logical to me?
Imho, its pointless to even speculate about any of this, without more credible data from somewhere and the only source that matters would be the FBI - which may never be forthcoming. Even informed speculation is pointless.
One thing is almost dead-certain, however: in 1971 there were only a handful of people in the USA who had any credible familiarity with the whole subject of human genetics, and dna in particular, such that dna was NOT in the forensic arsenal of any law enforcement agency much less involved in the DB Cooper case until many years after the fact of the crime.
With that factual reality it would have been virtually impossible for Cooper to have based decisions about his tie based on dna, as Blevins contends! That is preposterous. Just one more Blevins 'preposterous posturing'. It's crazy on it's face and only points once again to how uninformed and unrealistic Mr. Blevins is. It's total nonsense.
Tom Kaye must be laughing his ass off at Blevins' latest theatre of the absurd.
Let's put this issue in broader factual perspective: Cooper left all kinds a of evidence not just his tie! He left his prints on a number of objects in a number of places. He left physical evidence of himself - period. He left his cigarette butts! Cooper left evidence all over the God damned place!@
Whether law enforcement did a good job collecting it, preserving it, and testing it - is a separate matter entirely.So, Mr. Blevins is just blowing more smoke here. His contentions and conjectures are based on total fiction. Just like everything else he has either said, made up, or lied about.
Cooper did not leave his tie behind as a 'plant' intended to derail investigators, while also leaving other viable evidence of himself. Anything and everything Cooper left behind, whether intentional or otherwise, is evidence of Mr. DB Cooper himself! Who he was, where he has been, et cetera ... all of which goes back to Cooper's personal identity in the world. If law enforcement/investigators screwed that up and failed to arrest an prosecute Cooper, then that is their story to explain.
Case closed.
