Richard McCoy Jr.: The Man Who Copied D.B. Cooper

About this episode

In 1972, Richard McCoy Jr. hijacked a commercial jet, demanded half a million dollars, and parachuted to freedom — echoing the infamous case of D.B. Cooper just five months earlier. Was it coincidence, or was McCoy actually Cooper himself? From military service to prison escape, and finally a fatal standoff with the FBI, this is the incredible true crime story of the man who nearly pulled off the perfect crime — twice. A must-hear for fans of unsolved mysteries and skyjacking legends.
