Rendezvous - S2-E10

Plot hole: Linc is arrested in Wilcox, Arizona and is rescued by his father's people. They then take him to Trinidad in Colorado, an 8 and a half hour journey by car - they are seen in the same van. However in those 8 hours, it's not noticed that a) The police unit had been attacked and b) Lincoln Burrows, one of the 8 most wanted men in the USA, had escaped. Surely in 8 hours someone would have noticed. (00:07:35)

That wouldn't make sense because the original grave stone in series 4 has Michael's death date as 2005, which is supposed to be at least 3 years after Fox River.
