1
00:05:13,439 --> 00:05:15,274
Trial attorneys will tell you that

2
00:05:15,358 --> 00:05:17,151
when you have an actual witness

3
00:05:17,735 --> 00:05:20,154
they're maybe 50% accurate at best.

4
00:05:20,237 --> 00:05:22,573
You know, four people can see an incident

5
00:05:22,656 --> 00:05:25,701
and every one of them
will describe it differently.

6
00:05:25,785 --> 00:05:27,745
And it's not just their perceptions

7
00:05:27,828 --> 00:05:28,996
that they're reporting.

8
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:30,581
It's also their biases.

9
00:23:10,723 --> 00:23:12,016
<i>This is Bob.</i>

10
00:23:12,100 --> 00:23:14,352
<i>Yeah, Mr. Rackstraw,</i>
<i>my name is Tim Evans.</i>

11
00:23:14,436 --> 00:23:17,147
<i>I'm a reporter</i>
<i>with the </i>Indianapolis Star<i> newspaper.</i>

12
00:23:17,230 --> 00:23:19,065
<i>I'm sorry to call you</i>
<i>out of the blue like this,</i>

13
00:23:19,149 --> 00:23:21,985
<i>but I've been contacted</i>
<i>by a guy named Colbert.</i>

14
00:23:22,068 --> 00:23:24,404
<i>He's alleging that you are, uh,</i>

15
00:23:24,487 --> 00:23:27,073
<i>the guy who did</i>
<i>the D.B. Cooper hijacking and--</i>

16
00:23:27,157 --> 00:23:29,993
<i>I have no idea.</i>
<i>But Colbert has been attacking me</i>

17
00:23:30,076 --> 00:23:31,536
<i>for a number of years,</i>

18
00:23:31,619 --> 00:23:34,581
<i>resulting in a big massive lawsuit.</i>

19
00:23:34,664 --> 00:23:38,460
<i>So now what he's doing is</i>
<i>he's sending out six pages of information</i>

20
00:23:38,543 --> 00:23:41,463
<i>to a whole bunch of small-town newspapers,</i>

21
00:23:41,546 --> 00:23:43,965
<i>and then we'll do the old Nazi Blitzkrieg</i>

22
00:23:44,048 --> 00:23:46,176
<i>and hammer Rackstraw once again.</i>

23
00:23:46,259 --> 00:23:47,927
<i>So that's where it is.</i>

24
00:23:48,011 --> 00:23:49,888
<i>And have you filed</i>
<i>a lawsuit against him?</i>

25
00:23:51,431 --> 00:23:53,641
- <i>It's coming.</i>
- <i>It's coming? Okay.</i>

26
00:23:53,725 --> 00:23:56,144
<i>Do not print anything about me.</i>

27
00:23:56,227 --> 00:23:58,104
<i>-I will sue the crap out of you.</i>
- <i>Mm-hmm.</i>

28
00:23:58,188 --> 00:24:00,148
<i>So are you, are you not…</i>

29
00:24:00,231 --> 00:24:02,984
<i>Are you denying that you're--</i>
<i>what he's saying is true?</i>

30
00:24:03,985 --> 00:24:07,405
<i>Don't get to the bottom line.</i>
<i>That's a $40 million question.</i>

31
00:24:07,489 --> 00:24:10,241
<i>-Let him answer it. What did he say?</i>
- <i>He says you are,</i>

32
00:24:10,325 --> 00:24:13,036
<i>and that's why I'm trying to give you</i>
<i>an opportunity to say you're not.</i>

33
00:24:13,536 --> 00:24:16,915
<i>Well, opportunity to dig</i>
<i>into whether he's telling the truth.</i>

34
00:25:41,791 --> 00:25:45,628
<i>Do you know anything about the guy</i>
<i>in Indiana that he had supposedly</i>

35
00:25:45,712 --> 00:25:48,131
<i>decoded the messages, or…?</i>

36
00:25:48,214 --> 00:25:50,800
<i>Yeah. His name is Sherwood, is that it?</i>

37
00:25:50,883 --> 00:25:52,260
<i>Yeah, I think. Yeah, yeah.</i>

38
00:25:52,343 --> 00:25:56,055
<i>It was a hurrah moment,</i>
<i>I guess, eureka moment for Colbert,</i>

39
00:25:56,139 --> 00:25:57,807
<i>grasping at the last straw.</i>

40
00:30:03,678 --> 00:30:05,763
There was a correlation between

41
00:30:05,847 --> 00:30:08,266
what he used in Southeast Asia

42
00:30:08,349 --> 00:30:09,809
and then what was found

43
00:30:09,892 --> 00:30:11,811
and decrypted

44
00:30:11,894 --> 00:30:14,480
from the D.B. Cooper letters.

45
00:30:14,564 --> 00:30:16,607
That's a pretty strong correlation.
