Thanks for your informative reply, Squantos.

I pretty much agree with your take except for one detail...

"Remote activation entirely possible via a pager or a cell phone gutted and installed to activate the cap when the alledged handler saw his bag man was caught."

This device had a keyed mechanical timing device. The man can be heard to say,"This thing is ticking..".

Of course, IMHO. Thanks again for your expert opinion and stay safe.

I missed the reference to any key or manipulation by the victim.........sorry my bad.

Stay Safe !
