Erik Kleinsmith - DB Cooper Where Are You, Debunked

Netflix latest smash hit series is DB Cooper Where Are You. The series tells the story of the Case Breakers assertion that Robert Rackstraw was DB Cooper. The DB Cooper hijacking remains unsolved, and the case closed with the FBI. "Not so fast," says Tom Colbert who believes his cold case team has solved the mystery.

Funny thing is, the Netflix special is less concerned with solving the story and more interested in challenging Tom's passion, his crew and their conclusions. As the series unfolds, about 9 mins into episode three the series takes a turn. Rather than focus on the evidence of the Case Breakers, the story turns against Tom.

So the question remains, is Rackstraw DB Cooper? What are the elements of evidence that make the Case Breakers so confident? Was Rackstraw the right age? Was he at the airport? What are the case weak points...and WHY? did the series focus on Tom rather than the case.

Erik Kleinsmith, a Case Breaker, returns to the Break It Down Show. Erik, who used to be Pete A Turner's commander in Bosnia returns to BIDS for, gosh? over a dozen times. Erik will discuss elements of the case, he'll compare that against the series and hopefully we'll get some clarity and answers.

The Break It Down Show always gets the best guests at the right time.
