So who is this Danese Cooper? I see that David Gerard created her BLP in 2005. On that point alone I'm skeptical.

That D.B. actually never had a middle initial (the press gave it to him). He signed himself "Dan Cooper". But could have been "Dan(ese) Cooper" ermm.gif . fear.gif Nah, she's not old enough.
