I recall CWs mother was interviewed when the couple was still on the loose and she disclosed that she'd been aware of VW for some time, but she was an unnamed/unknown woman to her.
The mother also provided that CWs was happy, and mentally in a good place, because his new woman was going to hire a lawyer for CW, and he was going to be exonerated, etc., Mom said her response to this news was that the woman must have more money than she could spend... and stopped herself from pointing out the obvious, because she was glad CW had a friend.
I'm wondering that since CW had already planted the seed that VW, his 'unidentified' friend was going to hire a new attorney for him, perhaps VW somehow delivered/transferred $$$$ to CWs mother, earmarked for CW's legal expenses, for safe keeping.
IMO, I think it's highly suspicious that CW's mom recently hired a very experienced attorney for CW. I previously posted the presser by the new attorney where he was flanked by a team of attorneys-- as well as CWs mom and his daughter. MOO
