The Passport Companion List
An airline companion flag holds a man at the airport because a child's photo shares his face — messy unaccompanied-minor paperwork, not a crime. The mother is his college girlfriend, inbound on a connecting flight. They reunite with consent and time, not a seizure of a child.
BillionaireB-033The Proxy Card
