As someone suggested, he could have easily driven home through Canada and made himself more difficult to track.

I don’t know why anyone would believe such a thing — especially in a post-9/11 world. You drive across the USA-Canada border in either direction today, and both governments have a permanent electronic record of all kinds of things (license plate, vehicle registration information, Social Security number, facial photograph, etc.).

Yup. If he were being closely followed, attempting to cross the border might have resulted in his detention.

Take I-10 east or north out of El Paso, you'll get the treatment. No international borders needed.

Everything changed on 09/11/2001

Obviously, not for the better
