DB Cooper's grave?
Author Geoffrey Gray has just published a new book on the hunt for the real D.B. Cooper. Gray sees some resemblance between the police sketch of the folklore legend and a Polaroid snapshot of a central Oregon man named Lynn Doyle Cooper.
The picture and the suspect's name come from Cooper's niece, Marla. But author Gray questions the timeline of the niece's story and the plausibility of some of her memories from when she was eight years old. The niece tells interviewers she remembers her uncle coming home to Sisters, Oregon bloodied and bruised the morning after the hijacking.
Marla Cooper tells CNN that she herself doubts the FBI can conclusively prove her suspicions due to a lack of surviving physical evidence.
Veterans Administration records show the uncle, Lynn D Cooper, died in 1999 at the age of 67. He's buried in Pilot Butte Cemetery in Bend, Oregon.

I am 99.9% sure the grave of Lynn Doyle Coopers's birth is incorrect and should read 9/17/33, I uncovered this proof from a long investigation into this story.
