QuoteQuoteNote: Not to knock on the Seattle PI too much, but I would trust KING, KIRO, KOMO, or Seattle Times sources more than the PI.
I apologize if some of my posts and references were over the top back there. Guess I'm pretty upset. I just couldn't figure out why a guy who never hurt anyone in his life ended up like that in his own garage. I feel pretty sad about the whole thing. And angry, I guess.
NP. Just not something I would have posted. You are right. It is sad and my heart goes out to his family and friends. Like I said, there are probably some folks registered on this site that know him personally.
I do agree with Shutter that it would be useless to speculate on anything at this point. My fervent wish is that it is not connected even remotely to anything Cooper related. I want Cooper to stay in the spotlight, but not at the cost of someone's life.

QuoteQuoteQuoteI guess Cossey never played basketball or had any grand children?
this is the house where Cossey lives, even though no signs of a walker were found outside
No doubt the basket ball hoop is a hold over, from
when Cossey's wife played for the Celtics, while he
watched from his wheel chair.
Wasn't it Cossey's wife who said: "ich bin ein Berliner"
the afternoon that Cossey jumped from a 727 in his
wheelchair, over Berlin? I think there's a whole thread
here at Dropzone about that ... ?
Georger: Twisting Cossey possibly being MURDERED into a sick joke is really a new low for you. Have some sympathy, use some common sense please.
My sincerest sympathies go out to Cossey's family.
Uhhhh ... ain dit chu been chewhin his integrity a new asshole here - for years!?
Play it again, Sham Wow Double Stannard.
Of course it is sad.
I am sorry for your loss!
I know you were close to him, and his credibility.
Take a front row seat at his funeral whydoncha!
Be all teary eyed and Put on a good show.
Take your cat and your beagle.
What murder? I haven't read your 3 pages of
combative accusational authoritative editorials yet ???
Why? Has your poor opinion of the living Cossey
changed in death? Do you now believe he knew silk
when he saw it, and you haven;t seen it? Have you had a new vision of Cossey?

QuoteGeorger: Don't try to sidetrack or weasel. Your post is what it is. Can't believe you re-posted it. And the only time I came down on Cossey was about the April Fool joke he played on the Seattle reporter. I've never even met him.
You got a lot of nerve trying to twist your post back around to make it sound justified. As if I were the cause of YOUR post. If you were 'sad' about it...you wouldn't be making jokes like this:Quote' No doubt the basket ball hoop is a hold over, from

Hey dipstick. Calm down. Cool your jealousy for once!
Let me read the rest of today;s posts before you jump
trying to scratch my eyes out ... you jealous vamp.

QuoteQuoteQuoteQuoteThis site is saying it's been ruled a homicide....
http://www.komonews.com/news/local/Sheriff-Woodinville-mans-death-ruled-a-homicide-205013021.html.
Of course, events of the recent past have once again shown that you can't always rely on what you get via the media or on the internet...
But. unfortunately looking like things are adding up to suggest it's him. Sad news.
Unless family, friends, or neighbors talk, looks like police will not be releasing identity until Monday......Another article..
http://www.seattlepi.com/news/article/Body-found-at-home-of-DB-Cooper-parachute-packer-4468dropzone172.php
sadly I think we can say with a 99.9% chance it's him......
Didnt we know that this morning?
Old man dead in house.
Daughter calls to see if her (old) father is ok,. no answer.
Daughter goes over to house and finds (an old man) dead.
Only one old man living at 44 Perkins Road.
1+1+1=
or is this trollscience?

QuoteQuoteCossey's phone and address have always been available publicly. And that info matches the scene of the murder. KOMO news is saying it's him, and they are known in Seattle as being a very reliable news source. Unfortunately, it looks like it might be Cossey.
(*says a few swear words and feels bad*) Whoever did this is going to friggin' pay. I never met the guy, but I'm sure he didn't deserve whatever happened to him. My money goes on either a burglar, a crackhead, or some friggin' Cooper Nut. My only caveat is that I hope Smokin99 is right somehow, and it's someone else who was in the house. But the daughter-discovery being mentioned makes it sound unlikely. Does anyone know if Cossey had a daughter? I know zip about his family.
Well first of all, I can't find anywhere that is definitively saying it's him, but I agree with Shutter that it looks more likely than not. That said......
You know I have stayed away from your posts because at times it looks like people are piling on, but I really can't believe that you posted this on another website... "This is extremely sad. And although there could be any number of reasons why Cossey was killed, there are a few things you should know. First, I'm the guy who wrote a recent book on DB Cooper titled 'Into The Blast'. And during my research on this book, I discovered two things. First, Cossey's address and phone have been unlisted and publicly available at Dex Knows for years. Second, there are a lot of 'Cooper Nuts' out there. I know, I have met many of them either personally or on the internet. Cossey often spoke to people on the phone about Cooper, depending on his mood, but he was generally known as a nice guy. I would first check his phone records, see if any calls come from people known to be working on the Cooper case. My sincerest sympathies to the family. If you want to see what Cooperland is all about, see my article at Newsvine here:" http://adventurebooks.newsvine.com/_news/2013/01/16/16519136-skyjacker-db-cooper-part-1-of-3-welcome-to-cooperland Really Blevins?
I'm sorry, but sometimes I seriously wonder about some of you guys..
As I said, Blevins should sit in the front row at the
funeral, and hold the ex wife's gloves for her, ...
Am I surprised Blevins wrote the above?
No.
We were foretold of his coming.
It's in Blevilations. You can read that at Newsvine!
Lets have a moment of silence for Cossey - and forget
the opportunista guy no matter how he milks this for
personal advertizing and gain for himself and
Adventure Books!
For it is written: 'The Low shall be made High, the
Small shall be made Great, and the Trivial Obtuse

Both of U need to chill and Belvins should not be putting his twist on to the loss of a human being he did not know.
U Georger need to ignore Blevins.
Chew your fingernails or bite your lip. I swear you two act like 3rd graders.
Blevins definitely puts the cart before the horse in his opinions and dramatizes them - to the point one wishes they had an IGNORE button on the DZ.
U Georger just JUMP off a cliff when he posts - and most times U have not brought yourself up-to-date on the prior postings. Frankly I think until the facts are presented the most respectful thing is to just wait for the facts to come out.
Then if U guys want to do the KENNEDY thing have at it! Why put fear and negatives into this unfortunate incident....perhaps they will have a suspect behind bars before Monday. Face it - because Cossey was involved in the Cooper research and vocal regarding his area of knowledge does NOT justify either one of you spouting off.
We should all reserve judgement and STOP posting about this until the facts are known. I have my opinions and fears, but reserve those for one on one exchanges at this time.
Exchanged several conversations with Cossey since 1998. Of course I know IOTA about chutes, so I didn't understand anything, but answers to the simple questions. Cossey was a man of few words and he was blunt and to the point.
I have pictures of him he sent to me with the different chutes on....I was trying to ID that piece of hardware Duane kept. I spoke to both Cossey and the other man and even then there was controversary going on between those two. Don't think even today I understand who had what and who packed what.
Robert, people are killed for the stupidest reasons known. the fact of pointing out individuals or groups is in poor taste.
we have zero evidence of how and why this all went down, by trying to fill in the gaps of a crime is ridiculous at this time of the investigation.
this is very rare for Woodinville, no murders since 2001, but plenty of thefts and robberies!
