Someone like a boss or a colleague could have asked him to drive them to the next job site. They didn't have any luggage which is why the trooper suspected trafficking but that still doesn't mean that Kilmar was aware. He was just driving them to a drop off point it seems. Supposedly the FBI told the TN troopers to let him go but that's all getting really sketchy. They say to talk to TN and TN supposedly hasn't released all of the video where they are talking to Federal agents.
