Eric Conn gestures as he invokes his Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination during a Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs committee hearing on Capitol Hill in Washington. Conn had help in carrying out the escape plot he hatched a year before fleeing, according to a federal indictment. The indictment, released Monday, Oct. 16, 2017, alleges that an employee of Conn, the missing lawyer, opened a bank account that Conn used to transfer money out of the country. It also claims that the employee, Curtis Lee Wyatt, tested security at the U.S-Mexico border at Conn's direction, and purchased a pickup truck for use in Conn's escape in early June.
