Is this where D.B. Cooper went?

So I was scrolling through the headlines in the online edition of the local paper, and came to this story. It caught my interest even though I was only a kid when this happened, because I saw a show or two about it growing up. If true, I can't help but to find it intriguing. I grew up in the Flint area, and was familiar with Detroit, too. Places that aren't safe, and where sane people do not usually go, but something about this part of the country has always spooked me. People just disappear here. As in never seen again. When I think about it, I can almost think of them wandering into the Black Lodge, or some sort of equivalent, and all things being equal, there are some days when some mean streets seem a little less unsettling.
