I am still looking at articles and transcripts to see where on earth I got the idea that the jeep was towed to Moul's before May 30. But I pretty much accept now that May 30 was the right date. So they take it in (not running) on May 30, it is gotten out (running) on May 31. The jeep goes back in (running) on June 8. As of June 14, when Ricci goes back to jail, they haven't yet picked up the jeep from Moul's. (Because we know it was still there when the police came by to seize it later.)

Why was the jeep just left there? They could only get away with leaving it "until we get up the money to pay the bill" for just so long. Eventually, seems Moul could have sold the thing to pay for the repair bill. I just don't get why they were so casual about leaving the thing in the shop so long. Not only did they not seem to care about it for 6 days, from June 8 to at least June 14 (Ricci's arrest date), but really, if one believes the Riccis' story, they didn't check on the jeep but once from May 30 until at least June 14. As Sherlock has been saying--two weeks!

So they take it in (not running) on May 30, it is gotten out (running) on May 31.

Correction - it was brought in, repaired, Angela called, it was picked up - ALL on May 30. It was never at Moul's overnight until Jun 8 unless Angela is correct and it was one of the other white Jeeps that disappeared from Moul's lot.
