Parachute Linked to D.B. Cooper Case Discovered

A renewed investigation into the decades-old D.B. Cooper hijacking case has emerged following the discovery of a modified parachute on the property of Richard Floyd McCoy II's family, believed to be associated with the infamous 1971 crime. YouTuber Dan Gryder found the parachute while investigating, and it has since been handed over to the FBI, which has reopened the case after it was shelved in 2016. McCoy's children, Chanté and Richard III, suspect their father was Cooper, a theory supported by the similarities between McCoy's own hijacking in 1972 and Cooper's case. The FBI is also examining a logbook found by the McCoy siblings, which may align with the timelines of both hijackings. The discovery has reignited public interest and speculation about McCoy's potential involvement, particularly given his resemblance to a sketch of Cooper. The investigation continues as the FBI explores these new leads and collects DNA samples for further analysis.
