They turned in the older passport on 4/20/12. Three days earlier, in a prison conversation, he said, "I think my passport in is that bag"; she said, "I have one for you in safety deposit box"; and he said, "Okay, you hold onto that."

Why didn't she say, "Okay, I'll get it" or even "No -- actually, it's in the safety deposit box"? Why didn't he say, "Well, give it to the lawyer" or even "Give them both to the lawyer"? I think he intended to turn in the new passport and use the old one to flee with -- it was valid for another five weeks, the shenannigans with money don't help, and he would be traveling one way!
