I had a terrible day and read your post and just laughed and laughed. Thank you for ending my day end with a and a

Blevins, I know very little about pictures on the computer. I try to scan things so they will post on the thread. NO, I have never had them professionally scanned, but that photo and any others one might think should be - I will be glad to have done on a disk. BUT, I have to have someone who cares to mail them to - that means a name and address which everyone, which everyone with the exception Jerry Thomas and Bob Knoss keeps out of the thread and the public eye. I have scans on the computer but not high resolution and I have disks saved. I come from the old school and like things I can HOLD in my hand - like my memories that are now gone forever. The county deputies will not investigate unless I give them names and make accusations - and as usual there is always someone I protect. I guess that is old school and should not apply in todays times. I hate to see innocent individuals harmed because they made poor judgement calls and then realized their error. Often this eye opening comes too late and the bystander finds themselves in Life Altering situations, because they had a good heart. Anyone game to provide me a name and address in a PM and I will have made and send a disk with high resolutions - besure to tell me what other photos anyone might be interested in.

Three (3) surgeries in 11 months has done me in along with some traumatic events in my life. The second surgery on the last day of January when I came home I had this sense someone had been in my home, but nothing seemed disturbed. It was just something oddly out of place and the smell of a light cologne or scented shampoo. A couple of wks before this last surgery on April 26th I seemed to not be able to locate some items and a few days before the surgery went to the safe deposit box and they were not there. I was looking desperately for these items for a wk before the surgery and then came home and continued to search. Several time my gargage door would be open and I knew I had closed it. Note I alway bolt the door and use the lock - but it was like someone had a key (I knew I had lost a set of keys several months ago, but since they had no tag - figured everything was okay). My neighbor had his locks changed before I went to my last surgery on April 26th and I had my locks changed, because of the missing items. These items are still missing and my heart is breaking. I called this small brown suede box (approx 3x6) My Memories in a Box. Now I have lost my Memories and I can't sleep and I cry several times a day. I actually had to call a grief counselor and we talked for almost 2 hrs last night - my heart is breaking. 1. In this box was 2 pearl hearts with a J and C connected by a small chain. It was my father's 1st gift to me on my 1st birthday 72 yrs ago 2.There was a medallion I gave to Duane which he wore for 16 yrs until he died. 3. There was the Old Black Hills GOLD Ring 1/3 inch wide, Duane bought for me at the Eye of Needle in Seattle in 1979 and I wore on my right pinkie finger (could not wear it all the time because now sometimes my fingers swell). Whenever if fit, I wore it (first choice). 4. A Open Gold Nugget ring Duane bought me in St. Croix also heavy in weight and 1/3 inch wide (I hate skinny rings). 5. A Danbury Sheltie my last husband gave me with tiny diamonds on the collar - Our Sheltie died 9 months after my husband died. Gold 6. A Gold Star Fish (slighty larger than Quarter size) of which I also had the earrings. but in another place. 7. Class Ring 1958 - thick heavy domed gold with a ruby - Lebanon High School - was still like new and very heavy and wide. I hate girly rings or anything that sticks up or catches on things...like diamonds set-up in prongs. 8. 1-1/2 inch by 1 inch gold filigree cross - not flimsy filigree and no sharp edges (I stopped wearing that 17 yrs ago for personal reasons). 9. Several small insignificant pendants of no value. I have worn Duane's chain for 17 yrs (one I gave him) and changed the pendants according to how I felt. The Sand Dollar is the only pendant I have left now - plus a locket Duane gave me and no rings for my right hand - I feel naked and my memories I could hold in my hands and choose which I would wear that day are now GONE. I feel more grief over these daily memories than I did when my 2 husbands died. I know I wore those item after the Feb surgery - but, now they are gone. No - these item are NOT in my home - they are GONE. There is no insurance to cover the loss as I only have $1000 limit on my homeowners - and never had them appraised...strange I thought about this in March, but figured it too costly and to add the cost of the additional insurance - NOW I grieve and I cry and it hurts so badly. I have no rings for my right hand and the rings available in the stores are so light and tinny feeling - I like weight and a solid smooth feel. The prices are outrageous - I just feel so lost. I have had someone help me go thru the house 2 times and I continue everyday to search and to search and then I cry. My memories are gone - My Memories in a Box - they are all gone. Now when I hit that nursing home with Old Timers (like my mother) there will be nothing to help me remember my memories. I feel helpless. Last night it was the grief counselor on the phone and tonight it is you guys. I don't think I can make it back from this loss - I will never be me again. Things are tough enough right now and finding money to replace just one or two of the items is NOT in the budget. I keep wondering - did I throw them away? Did they get caught up in a Goodwill bag? The one donation during that time will NOT even talk to me - just said that families put things like this in their bags all the time when a family member dies (I told them I could not afford to give away the approx 7K these items are worth in today's prices). I do not know which one came on our street that day to collect from a neighbor and I handed them a bag - it was approx sometime in March. The neighbor told me Goodwill, but he didn't get a receipt and Goodwill told me they don't pick-up. This neighbor is an old grouch and he didn't seem to care. Claimed they were Goodwill out of Pensacola and they told me they do NOT pick-up. I have called and called, but everyone tells me the same thing. They send those donations out to be melted or they have a buyer who buys all of the gold, but won't tell me WHO. Isn't there a law? I thought about approaching the newpaper, but I don't want my name used. I don't know what to do - I feel so very very lost...

You guys did a good job on that old pic. It was the orginal polaroid that the ex had in her possession and she mailed it me. The date on the back of the photo says 1970 and I did NOT try to preserve it and in the first yrs paid NO attention to the dots. Since the tie is wide the "pearl" seems to be in the middle of the tie. All I have ever been able to do was just scan it as best I could so it was not too large to post. I can have a high resolution scan put on a CD and then you guys can take a better look at it. Give me an address in a pm of where to mail the CD (you guys decided who that will be). Tell me what to have it scanned at. When I scanned it at the house and put it upon my screen - it looks different, but I can't post a pic with high resolutions. I have never done anything to attemp to preserve this photo and no idea how the ex protected it. I have it in a stack of other photos in an envelope - I have done nothing special for it. I don't understand what you guys do - but want you to look at a Disk with it at HIGH RESOLUTIONS. OK? I expect the High Resolution scan might show something not seen in the pic you guys are working from. Give it a try. Georger Was that a joke "what color was Cooper's tongue"? Hope so! You have a weird DRY sense of humor just like"Bud". Jokes go right over my head! Of course you are NOT surprised at that. Maybe I could make a high resolution scan on my own computer and email it - with dial-up it will take forever to download to the email...the resolutions on DZ won't let me post it here. P.S. Think you guys should check it out and I will appreciate it if you do so. Maybe it will show the same thing! Maybe NOT! At least I won't have to revisit this tie thing again if you do this for me.

Really? I'd bet against it. If its real post the court and case number. Everyone threatens litigation here but no nobody sues. So why threaten? What's the point? 378 Did NOT say I had one in progression! What I heard was hearsay - maybe members of a supposed suspect or one of the crew? You think?

I only have dial-up so UTubes are basically out for me - so I do not know what you are trying to say or view. Do you have a photo. Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

Note BK never sent me the name of this individual who he claims I have kept secret! Try comparing the size of that clip with the attached photo of the tie Duane was wearing in this 1970 picture. IT IS NOT A BLIP IN THE POLAROID. The complete photo show other marks but they DO NOT LOOK like this. The clip is hid by the lapel of the jacket but when enlarge you can see glints of gold on the edges. Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

If I said something like "I don't want to bring McCoy into the story" I was just trying to be kind to you and I did NOT believe any part of what you told me - but, played along to see if there was one iota of truth in what you told me. I do not remember who you are referring to as XXX. If I said something like that -it was to keep you off of the back of others. You kept coming up with "stuff" but, it was so WAY out there and I kept hoping you really knew something....but, the more you talked the more unbelieveable you got. When I ceased discussing this with you - you WENT way OFF! Then everywhere I went to discuss Cooper and to learn FACTS you kept coming into the site and destroyed any productive investigation, just as you have destroyed this thread. The DZ thread WAS productive (except for a few set backs now and then) until you literally destoyed it with the garbage you post. If you want to PM me with the REAL name of this person you are referring to - please do so. The only individuals I have protected had absolutely NOTHING to do with the incident. Why would I allow YOU to victimize anyone else. You are a lawsuit waiting to happen! One is in progression now.... you are so self-centered you do NOT care who you hurt with you LUNATIC antics. If it is media attention you want - well, do that all by yourself. I NOR anyone else wants anything to do with you. I am being nice but, NICE is NOT my middle name. Provide me with the NAME of the individual you are referring to in a PM. If this person was a child in 1971 - JUST GO TO HELL AND PLEASE DO NOT COME BACK.

I never did find out why Duane was so mysterious when he took me to Memphis and made his mysterious little venture the next morning telling me if he was not back in 45 minutes to take the car and go back to Atlanta - he would find me later. This was approx 1982. The only time he ever handed me the keys to his car in the 17 yrs we were married - until he got too sick to drive. My life with Duane Weber was weird when I look back at it. NO way this old broad could make these strange incidents that just bug the hell out of me. I feel like a stupid dog chasing its own tail around in circles. Duane took me places and introduced me to some very mysterious people who it turns out were involved in "things". I was completely naive. Had I never found out who Dan Cooper was my last 17 yrs could have been normal. Hard to walk away when you know you never made one word of this up nor one incident and these thing really happened. When I see what Knoss sounds like - I realize that is how other must perceive me. They are saying "Oh, that poor woman - she is Off Her Rocker" I focused only on proving Duane was Cooper and tried to leave the other things behind. I can't make them go away, but I do try to ignore them. The FBI could have provided me with some truths about Duane, but chose a 2 paragraph letter with nothing more than the prints did not match. If there was nothing to hide the FBI or the Government should provide a survivor with evidence and/or access - not a 2 paragraph letter. The inability of the FBI to provide me with the PROOF Duane was NOT Cooper is their own undoing. Duane had no surviving relatives except for me. Our government has no problem destroying lives of survivors who seek truths. So what is the FBI hiding on Duane Weber - aka John C. Collins.

In may of 2000 a young woman contacted me and thought Duane was her grandfather. I did not pursue this, but perhaps I should have. Her Grandmother was born Hazel in 1920 and gave birth to child July 18 1949 by a man she said was named Dutch Weber. Not much was known about Dutch other than he was a man her grandmother would meet at the airport. Hazel gave birth to child in 1949 she named Cathy. Cathy had health problems at the time her daughter contacted me in 2000 and thought - Duane might be her grandfather. I never pursued this, but maybe I should have. I was looking for Edna (last name unknown) who gave birth to a child named Zona approx - 1943 to 1944. Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

I did not know how to save emails in 2000, but made hard copies: Below is a summary of a phone call I related directly to Doug after the conversation. This conversation was taken from notes and other sources. 10/9/00 I just spent 1 hr and 45 mins on the phone with XX. They were in Columbia in late 70 & 71 - this matches the income tax reports. When they go to ATL they rented a large house. Later they bought the mobile home on Scott in 1972. Duane was in Emory AFTER they came back to Atlanta. She claimed she was with her sisters during the Nov and Dec of 71 and after Xmas he called her and begged her to come back. When she got back to ATL he told her they needed a vacation and they went to Miami. (Later in the conversation she would tell me they went to N.Y. for 1972 New Yrs). He had fell and hurt himself and get this - he hurt his leg and he was limping. I asked if he had any other injuries. She said he had a big gash on his XXXXX and I had never told her about the picture and never asked before about such an injury. (I was referencing a photo that shows something on a part of Duane's body never mentioned in prison files or by others) yet, she volunteered this! She mentions an arm injury to the arm with the tattoo - but Duane had tattoos on both arms. She only remember this injury was below the elbow. They went to Miami after spending New Yrs 1972 in N.Y. He had lots of money and stayed it the very nicest of hotels and he bought her clothes like she had never had before. It was during this time that he wanted to buy a boat (a rather large boat - with a cabin and able to make it to Mexico or S.America). She stated he had the cash to make the purchase but she said no. She mentioned the price of the boat being over 10K. 1971 - that bought a pretty decent boat to make it to S. America and Mexico. Duane himself had told me this part of the story on a trip he and I made to Ft. Lauderdale and Miami. The 2 stories matched. After they got back to Atl. (this is a part I still cannot expose), but the end results was her attempt to hurt herself. Remember this woman loved Duane Weber and the circumstances under which she was loosing him she could not handle. This is when she told Duane she was going back to Ks and wanted a divorce. Before the split Duane purchased 2 cars at the same time - a Dodge Gremlin and a Dodge Swinger (remember my quizing you guys about this - but I already had the answers) from the mouth of the ex. She jumps all over the place that night from late 1966 to early 1972 and then the divorce. She mentions a large white van supposedly Duane bought or that belonged to a friend (she would later fill in the blanks on this). This it would turn out was before the Nov 1971 incident. She claimed Duane spent a lot of time in S. GA (so he said) at that time with this man and she knew nothing other than he had black hair and she had to buy Duane some Dickies. Duane took me to some towns in S. Alabama...so maybe they she meant to say AL. When she wanted to talk to me she usually had had a little too much tipping of the elbow. She states that when they were living in Columbia (jump back to 1970-71) that Duane would leave for 2/3 wks at a time - and whatever he was doing was physical - he was swimming everyday (this is obivous from a picture she sent me of that time). She bounces back to 66 before he was arrested in Cleveland. She did not have her children and they went to Phoenix, AZ. He left her in Phoenix and went to WA but she did not go with him. (this would be about 1966) This was the yr before he was sent to Jefferson - as I have said her story goes all over the place in time and parts of the country. She tell me she had bought some silk in CA the sister wanted to make Mandarin Robes. They had just come from San Francisco in 1966 approx. The way I understood her was they went to San Francisco and he leave her there alone for several days in a Hotel (not clear on where he went). Then he takes her to Phoenix and then he goes to back to the Northwest and was specific about WA state.. He told her he was going up the Pacific Coast. She jumps back to 1972. She tells me he made her an accessory to a crime and her Uncle who was in Law Enforcement in Ks told her that she could be charged with accepting stolen goods because he bought her things with the monies...this is around the suicide attempt time. He told her the FBI would arrest her at the same time they arrested him and would not be kind in doing so. She jumps back to Cleveland. and tells about an FBI agent taking her back to Ks to her sisters - Johnnie had been arrested - this was the 1966 arrest. Duane tells a different story about this when he has to reveal to me he had been in Jefferson. Note Duane only revealed to me the Jefferson encarceration after he was held for trying to obtain the Collins drivers license in 1990. Why did Duane risk going back to prison in 1990 - what was so important he had to re-establish his John Collins ID...well, I have my own opiniong on this - it was a safety deposit box he had under John Collins opened in 1980 right after the money find. She repeats things over and over she has told me before - seems like she is driven to tell me these things. She seemed calm and incontrol. I am the one rambling trying to remember everything she said. She is upset about something going on at that time with one of her chidren (this in 2000). Her health is declining and she wants to tell me somethings. She again states she never forgot what her Uncle told her and takes the conversation back to 1972. She can't stay away from that subject on this night. I never got to meet her in person...she was definitely entertaining on the phone, but very difficult to follow. I am sure my injection of questions confused her, but on this night she was driven to tell me things, but was afraid to tell me things at the same time. I have alway regretted having to curtail the calls after I remarried. This was necessary for privacy reasons and the fact her calls would come at 1 am or 2 am in the morning. That just didn't work when I remarried....so I could not and did NOT provide her with the new phone number or my new address. I did keep in touch about every 3/4 months and she did not have caller ID. My last call was 2 hours after she died and she had BEGGED me for an address on our last conversation 2 or 3 months prior - she was in a nursing home at that time. She had something she wanted to send me - I never knew what it was! Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

I have tried 3 times to reply to your post but, it got Bleeped everytime. Georger you stated: "Because we have some of Cooper! And the part of Cooper which is real and exists, does not include any part of Duane. We have pieces of Cooper and none of him has anything to do with Duane." Your statement above was edited to delete anything other than Duane as I have nothing to do with BK and know his story is contrived - reason unknown. Exactly WHAT parts of Cooper does the FBI have? You state "we" - who is we? Are you FBI? The 58 latent prints - the FBI is in possession of. They do not know if any of them are Cooper's prints. Duane's use of emory cloths he kept in his pants pocket and jacket pockets I doubt left useable prints. Perhaps the FBI should publish those prints so other can see the quality of the prints and it was my understanding they did NOT know if any of the prints they acquired actually belonged to Cooper. The prints used by the FBI for Duane Weber are from a file in 1945 - a file and imprisonment the FBI denied to me in 2000, but finding I had the actual papers had to retract. This was the actual agent of record in 2000 (I have his name in my files). If the prints the FBI used for WEBER are actually his prints - then produce the prints for San Quentin, Folsom, Canon and Jefferson and prove they match the McNeil file which according to Agent Carr are the prints used by the FBI. Just duplicating the McNeil file will not work - prints change over time due to burns, cuts - etc. IF the McNeil file prints belonged to Weber - then why WAS he given a commutation of sentence as John Collins from Jefferson in 1968? Why did the FBI come looking for Duane L. Weber just weeks after his released as John Collins? The FBI needs to provide some answers? Not me! Now I will address the tie. NOT one statement has been made public that Tina Mucklow identified the tie as the one Cooper was wearing. If indeed this is the tie worn by Cooper the DNA has been compromised by yrs of handling and in the early yrs there was NO protection to provide for DNA evidence. Please refrain from putting me in the same sentence with BK. I discredited him yrs ago with my own version of the lie detector. The story I have told about Weber has been the memories of what he told me, his confession and what he showed me and the results of my own 17 yr investigation. None of this has anything to do with BK and I am NOT competing with him. IF the FBI can produce PROOF Duane was not Cooper then why have they NOT done so? I came here tonight to make a post about a 1hr and 45 min coversation with Duane wife of the 60's. It is a detailed report made to Doug Pasternac within moments of hanging up the phone......taken from my notes and another source. This conversation took place on Oct 9, 2000. I had attempted to make post in the past about this and played DUMB just to see what you guys would say. Since I lost all of my files on that old computer I thought all was lost, but I made hard copies which I dug out of storage and started to read. You will find this matches things I have said in this thread and the questions I asked in this thread - playing a dumb blonde when I actually knew the answers. I did NOT feel I could violate a confidence in 2000 and was loyal to an extent. No I cannot put myself on that plane - ridiculous of you to propose such. Pehaps you know who can?

You got it - Pinochio all the way. This is exactly what he did with each and ever contact I made with him and why I found it necessary to feed DELIBERATE lies to him in order find if there was one fragment of truth in the story he told. As with Pinochio - his nose grew longer with each lie, but in KB's case his story evolved with his supposed recall. He was adamant he had never heard of Tommy Gunn when I put the name infront of him (bear in mind I knew who Tommy Gunn was) and then a few months later his main character supposedly used this name. Guess he decided not to use the name Tony Wong - wrong race! Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

Matt, don't even bother talking to such a "touched" individual...although he does give me great laughs...so his posts do have a function. Cooper did exit somewhere between Seattle and Reno..."I'll certify that for a dollar". hangdiver If anyone thinks differently they are idiots - do they think he hid himself on the plane?

I agree, we need some serious discussion and to get alway from the garbage. The post by Bruce Smith is one of the few worth reading along with the one made by Amazon. To engage BK is a useless use of energy and time. When I read Bruce's post and then went to the site he directed us to. I perked up. As many of you know Duane claimed to know someone in Puyallup. Duane's brother and a friend owned investment property in Tacoma. The FBI never checked any of this out yet it was provided to Himmelsbach and others. I do not know the name of Duane's brothers friend. I am sure a search of the property records in the Tacoma area will provide the names. I do not have the ability to do this from FLorida. I do NOT know the actual location of the commercial property they bought - it is was actually in Tacoma or just before we reach the Tacoma area. Surely there is someone out there who would be able to search the property records by name. I will provide Duane's brother's name by regular email and to a known person if that person is willing to take on this challenge. Please note that Puyallup was specifically mentioned by Duane Weber as his having known someone in that area. Being unfamiliar with the areas except for our trip in 1979 when he made these statement...I am at the mercy of the residents of WA to help me pull this information. I do NOT know the name of the man who Duane's brother bought the property with (they may have used a company name rather than individual names) that will take a little more time and expertise - but, it should be in the property records. Problem is I don't know what yrs and John is deceased and this is not something he included in his letter to me summarizing what he knew about his brother's life. I expect this property purchase would have been in the 60's. Duane mentioned something about the timing being wrong and they took a loss. As all of you know Duane's brother had connections with Boeing and the friend probably also had connection. The brother was an engineer (I don't know what kind). This brother was a Boeing consultant during the war for 6 yrs - but, again that is all I know. When this man named Stan Gilliam came up and his being in that area - my ears perked up. The story about the brother and the property is NOT new. This has been related by me in this thread and to Himmelsbach - so don't go saying this is contrived. I could make multiple guesses, but will refrain from doing so. God, I really wish John was still alive. I need to know more about this Stan Gilliam. 377 did you not at one time post a picture of a man in Wa with his wife and 2 children - who was that man. This was a Boeing person...?????? If the only living relative of the family would share the family photos - a lot of questions could be answered. This keeper of the gate will not permit anyone to view these old journals and most of the records are on floppies. I truely hope this person has not destroyed these records. This person inherited the family records from her relative. All of the Webers are now deceased. 377 - I think you are the only person who might be able to make the approach and get this thread by on track and to also contact the relative. I really hate posting some of this because I am sure BK will suddenly claim new things and have new memories. My memories have been repeated over and over and the record player (me) is getting worn out and there is NO one left to replace me when it come to finding out if Duane Weber was Dan Cooper, by his own words. Anyone else out there who may have claimed to have been Cooper probably said D.B. Cooper and not DANNNN Cooooper. I have just returned from my 3rd surgery in 11 months. Bruce's posts and the post by 377 are my only interest at this time. Everything else is the same old same old. Mrshutter, Sailsaw, Georger and Robt99, Amazon and Matt have done their best to help BK understand his mental state and he is allowed to post pictures of known indivuals claiming they were involved in the Skyjacking. Blevins like myself continues to toot his subject. I do NOT toot my subject - I just want more answers - answers that will either prove if Duane was or was not Cooper. I am trying to make sense out of the too many coincidences - real life and not contrived crap or hearsay - what I heard from the mouth of Duane Weber and saw with my own eyes and ears. I fear people put me in the same category as BK and I do hope the creator will provide me with answers before I can no longer speak for myself. I respectfully ask that BK NOT quote me nor copy my post nor to reply to my post. His distortions of things and his claims I said such and such are sick sick sick.

Wish I was there. The last time I saw the Northern Lights was in KY with my father....he had us all out to see what was happening. I have seen only pictures since then, but what I saw that night lives in my memory to this day. I remembered Column's of light all across the north horizon. We lived on a farm and our home was on a hill. Daddy was holding one of my younger siblings in his arms - Therefore I know this particular happening was after 1949.

Knoss, I have asked NOTHING from you. I don't need for you to send me anything and I want NO communications with you. How, RIDICULOUS - you take pics I post and published and call it a Certification Duane Weber was in Bloomington. A 3rd grader has more common sense than you . You REALLY NEED to get some help. You never met Duane L. Weber - because if you did YOU would never have talked about "jail house complexion" or "bleached hair". You have produced NOTHING in these 16 yrs to connect yourself to Weber or Collins. 100% of what you claim is contrived - and for what reason I nor anyone else knows NOT. You consistently lie and deceive. You contribute nothing to this thread other than to waste the time of those who are really trying to make some head way. Produce PROOF you knew Duane Weber or John Collins! Produce it on this thread. Or PRODUCE proof you had any connection to all of these things you claim. PHYSICAL proof not something you design or invent. Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

Bob - finally someone made a decent post (I edited some of it out and only left what I want to address). I realize you think Petersen was Cooper, but what you posted applies to all suspects and I just do NOT understand why the FBI doesn't get it. I expect the problem with the letters sent to several news papers is that because little was known about DNA - so perhaps the envelopes were discarded. I did NOT realize 4 notes were sent to the Portland Newpapers. Other newpapers received similar notes, I have forgotten who gt what and when. Perhaps it would be a good idea for someone to post what is know about the notes and the dates and newpapers involved with each note. Some were definitely pranks, but WHAT IF one of them was actually sent by the Skyjacker. The one with the code in it I have never seen - and often thought maybe it was someone pulling my leg. That is the ONE note I actually want to see. I want to see the print, the stamp, the envelope and the code as it was reported to be. I want to see if those numbers are written or cut like lots of the notes. Mostly I just want to know if this particular note really did exist. I forget now if it was Reno or San Francisco.

Knoss Stated: I remember how happy you were to hear some truth which you were able to verify. Now you deny the same information because you don't like the truth. I understand. Facts are still facts. I can't change facts to please you. Jo States: Knoss you are SHIT and you know that. You are nothing. The "truths" you claim were seeds I planted in your mind and the several months later the seeds start to grow and grow and grow. You became Pinocho. Knoss States. Why are you so strongly opposed to the involvement of McCoy? Seems to me it confirms the 'golden heart' of Duane Weber. P.S. I told my story to the FBI at length also. Jo States: Because your story is shit you made up of the feeds I gave you. You are a fraud! You have been a waste of time in the Cooper case and YOU have nothing to offer. Wait until I get back to WA and retrive the information waiting for me there - WHATCA Gonna DO then? Please don't reply - just die! You are useless crap with you made up information. You do NOT even know where the things are in WA. Get your ass on a plane and go to WA then tell your story and check out the footprints. UNTIL then leave me be. I will be having someone copy all of the emails and the tape I made and then see who is the LAIR. You are not only a liar - you are a deprevated creepy professional liar. Your only goal in life is to be heard.. Get yourself some HELP! Also get your facts together because you are going to need them - NO you are NOT part of the COOPER Story - you are a no one who leeches off of others.

No one wants to post in this thread to hear more rants and raves from Knoss or myself (Jo Weber). Everytime I post it just adds more fuel to his creation. This is almost over and I will be going to WA sometime within the next 4 months to put the tail on the donkey's ass...it might be my own ass, but we will wait and see. I keep trying to say GOODBY, but letting go is hard to do. So many times I have said I was leaving - but, it is difficult for me to let go. Now I have to for the sake of the thread in order for the DZ to have 1st options on a story as it unfolds. I would advise Knoss to sit on his hands and maybe he should seek legal advice. His mental state is a concern and he did contact the FBI before I went public in 2000. See You Guys in WA, - I hope! Will not be making any public interviews and I will be just as private and silent as I was for the 15 days I spent there in 2010. As before, FBI will know I am there when I want them to know...perhaps they should do a little investigation into some very specific things. Digging up graves and plowing thru old files and searching for old pictures - using photo recognition programs sure helps. I'll be hanging around if the thread is here - but will refrain from posting in relation to Knoss. Only updates as I am allowed to relate them.

Knoss stated: I know nothing about any one legged man. That was your concoction. Jo STATES! You have mentioned this right here in this thread and on the phone to me and to others. --------------------------------- Knoss stated: You admit constantly that you create falsehoods to tell people who try to assist you in your search. Jo STATES! You are the only person I have ever had to put to task. You kept fabricating things over the phone before you ever used a computer in regards to Cooper. Yes, I fed you FALSE HOODS, because I wanted to see if there were any TRUTHS in your story. I gave you the benefit of the doubt and you failed EVERY test. --------------------------- Knoss Stated: I will tell you that I may get something wrong, but I NEVER, NEVER fabricate untruths about this information. Never have, never will. Don't want your reputation. THAT is why I think the FBI dropped you. Loose cannon. You don't have any support anymore, because of statements like your last one here.

Knoss Stated: ***I don't have to explain that to Jo, but if you want to play slow, I can go into the depths of part of the story, just for you. McCoy and O'Hara staged McCoy's death as the McCoy character was 'used up'. No value anymore. That was one. New name, new credentials, new job. "Tommy Gunn", Special Agent Underworld Crime. Things got so hot for him he had to not exist anymore. Died of leg cancer, per Stallone. ***

One man's bull is another man's Oscar performance. When are you going to talk to me about Murray? I need to find out when you were there and if you remember a (male) teacher and a (female) student - approx. 1968. We may as well go completely off subject....as long as Knoss is here there is no need to discuss Cooper. I have always tried to keep what I know - to what I actually experienced and heard and saw during my yrs with Weber. Of course there are the other things such as hard data and facts I would learn to go along with the above...hell, I didn't have to make things up about Weber. They were just there! Married to this man for 17 yrs and I didn't really know who he was. Knew only what he offered about his past. I actually feel pretty foolish because it makes me appear to be very naive - guess I was. Can you imagine what could have happend if I had figured all of this out while he was still alive. I have really thought about this and my memory of him is clouded now. What would he have done if the combination of the Dream in 1978 and the trip in 1979 to Seattle along with Media articles about the Money find in 1980 had triggered what I know today? I expect he would have disappeared from our lives and I would have been trying to find out how you divorce someone who has vanished. He put a lot of distance between us very quickly - about 4 wks. in 1980. He even traded the Cadillac for a brand NEW OLDS and paid cash for it around Thankgiving of 1979. He left CO driving the Olds but when I got to AL in June of 1980 he had the Marquis. I had no way of knowing where he was calling from in those days so no telling where he really was. He had a room in Mobile so he said, but I do not know if I even had an address. I probably did. Then I jump to 1990 - what if I had figured it out then with all of the mysterious things going on? This was the period he went on the kidney machine - we had been married 12 yrs - and that was the yr I would learn I was married to an ex-con (he had spent 16 months in Jefferson). What would I have done if I had known about San Quentin, Folsom and Canon? I will never know the answer to these questions or how different my life could have been or would have been. What would I have done if I had known and had figured it out - would he have answered me - obviously he had tried to tell me, but I would have passed it off as his joking with me - or have thought there was another woman had he been in good health.

I am so very tired of his bull. The thread has been completely destroyed by B.KNOSS. The DZ was kind enough to provided this medium for us to explore subjects and the facts, but Knoss has demolished the thread and our only open avenue of explorations into this case. This man has taken snipets of things he has read and been told and contrived a complete fiction regarding Weber. I have a feeling this is DELIBERATE. I made a statement a long time ago, but forgot how it was worded. Perhaps the FBI didn't know who Cooper was in the beginning, but when Weber was presented as a suspect they had to make it go away. Weber was a criminal, but a lot of his past was spent trying to make his wrongs and being wronged right. (crazy statement but I will explain - someday). He had a grudge because the system was NOT "just" in his case during the early yrs - the tags placed on him by the Navy and then the Army made his being "somebody" almost impossible. His own father disowned him. He went from just being a kid who was wronged to a man who did wrong - made a living anyway he could - and took relentlessly without regard to his hurting others. He became lost in the system. Copyright 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 2013, 2014, 2015 by Jo Weber

WHAT rifle? And why was it necessary to destroy it? Yes. I hate to be redundant...but again...the question above? It's simple enough, Mr Knoss. Because he has to check his memory at the door lest he loose it as he has before. He has already screwed up trying to put Weber in CA when B.Kennedy got killed. Didn't happen! Also what NO one knows is that I have a photo of Duane Weber (not a good one) taken when he was released from Jefferson. NO way that man ever had BLONDE hair and make-up. I have never been able to expose the photo because he has his arms around the neck of his wife and the sister-in-law is with them. It is also very grainy. I have no idea who took the photo. The ex-wife sent me this photo as she did the others...she for some reason sent me the originals. She had somethng else for me before she died - but I called 2 hour 2 late. I coveted my privacy and respected my current spouse to the point I refused to give her my address...or to provide her with a number she could call me at - something I still regret, but my first allegiance was to my husband and that is as it should be.
