The Tipping Point was the contradicting testimony from The Government, and the individual TSAer.
In short, the TSAer, Stroud, said she was looking for contraband, evidence of criminal wrongdoing, not to detect prohibited items with the envelopes (full of money).
She also testified that she didn't think there was a weapon in the envelopes because it went through the x-ray machine (whereas The Government said it's possible).
