This week, we're hanging with Candace as she guides us through one of the most legendary unsolved cases in American history: the mystery of D.B. Cooper. In 1971, a man boarded a plane in Portland under the name Dan Cooper, hijacked it midair, and parachuted out with $200,000 in ransom—never to be seen again.
Who was he? Did he survive the jump? And why has no one ever come forward with answers in over 50 years? From skyjacking and FBI files to wild theories involving missing uncles and secret identities, we’ll explore every twist in the story of the only unsolved hijacking in U.S. history! This episode includes NEW EVIDENCE that leads us even closer to who-dunnit.
So grab your drink and settle in—and remember to stay spooky!
