Cooper caught drinking at the Sandy Hut at 10 in the morning? Yes, that Sandy Hut! (And honestly, some of them are pretty good reading!) Coopers, a patchwork of vastly diverse suspects, along with varied paradigms and theories that contribute to the provenance of weirdness that comprise this legend.
But what emerges from this pile of papers is a myriad of possible D.B. or, if you prefer, a lot of bullshit conjecture. But as you will see, there are still gems of substantiation to be unearthed by intrepid researchers. Note: Many of the documents you'll see are heavily redacted, as the release process must preserve the identity of many of the living suspects. To properly remember the 50th anniversary of the only unsolved skyjacking in US Aviation history (happening on Wednesday, November 24), I have reviewed every single document-all 22,277 pages-with my own eyes, and, for your enjoyment, have compiled the top ten weirdest, wildest revelations from the hunt for D.B. Since closing the case, the FBI have released 22,277 pages of reports on their website covering most aspects of the investigation "between November 1971 and May 1992." The Feds had investigated over 1,000 suspects and came up with nothing. Sara, Lincoln and the other men have all been given immunity and are seen visiting Michael’s grave.The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) pursued the caper until July 2016, when after almost 45 years, they considered the case closed-ish. The final scene takes place four years after Christine’s death, which brought about the end of The Company. She attempts to shoot Michael, but is killed by Sara. Self is revealed to be a double agent who plans to sell Syclla to the highest bidder, and another Company agent named Christine is revealed to be Michael’s mother – previously thought to be dead.Ĭhristine reveals that Lincoln was adopted, explaining the difference between their IQs. The brothers discover that Syclla is not The Company’s address book, but instead contains plans for an advanced renewable power cell. Sara is found alive and well, but Bellick dies when he sacrifices himself to help the team.
Michael and Lincoln are recruited by Homeland security agent Don Self to recover a device named Syclla, which they believe contains information on The Company and could expose the conspiracy. But when they get to an air field their escape plane is nowhere to be seen. Meanwhile the Fox River Eight hatch their plan and successfully break out of the prison.
Sara reluctantly helps, but her guilt drives her to overdose on pills. He tells her about his plan to break out of the prison, and asks her to leave the infirmary door unlocked on the night of the escape. Michael and Sara become romantically involved. Michael reveals that his architecture firm had previously worked on retrofitting Fox River, meaning that he had access to its blueprints.īefore the robbery, he spent four months having a huge tattoo inked on to his torso, which contains the plans to the prison and details of their escape plot.Īs the men prepare to escape Michael feigns diabetes in order to get daily access to the infirmary, with the intention of stealing a key from Sara. After Lincoln is imprisoned, Michael stages a bank robbery and is sent to Fox River where he meets inmates such as John Abruzzi – who helps to arrange a getaway plane, and Charles Westmoreland – also known as DB Cooper, who has $5 million hidden in cash.
