Description
The record reflects that on the morning of April 12, 1987, appellant arrived at Houston Intercontinental Airport on a Delta Airlines flight after taking Eastern Airlines from Miami to Dallas. The appellant went to the Delta baggage office around 8:30 in the morning and reported to Delta employee Fred Ortiz that "his bag did not come in." Appellant was requested to fill out information for a baggage tracer, and he gave Ortiz the name "M. Morrow" but did not give an address or phone number, saying he would be "out of pocket." Appellant then made three phone calls to the Delta baggage office between 10:15 a.m. and 10:45 a.m. inquiring whether the suitcase had arrived, even though the agent then on duty, Tom Gower, told the appellant that the suitcase probably would be arriving around 12:20 p.m. Appellant continued to call Delta throughout the morning and on the fourth or fifth call he told Gower "that he would prefer [they] not open the bag," saying it contained "personal valuables." Gower told appellant that bags were not opened unless they lacked name tags, and appellant then told Gower that his suitcase bore a tag with the name "Steve" and an address on Beverly Hills in Houston. Gower, who had worked for Delta for 26 years, regarded it as being unusual for a customer to make so many phone calls about lost baggage and for luggage to be labeled with the name of someone other than the passenger.
