Amateurishly doctored plates seem like a good way to (hopefully) get EE pulled over by LE. As someone pointed out earlier, LE is just looking for anything hinky to give an excuse to pull people over and run their plates. Get it on the record that he was in or traveling to from NC that day. If the purpose was to avoid detection, FD could have simply swiped a plate from a vehicle he knew wouldn't be used that day.
A license plate reader would PROBABLY (imo) flag a doctored plate because it isn't metal. I could be wrong, because temp plates are cardboard in CT, but I can't imagine that reader tech would be so unsophisticated.
Disposal in the sewer grate was probably an, oh, s---! moment, where FD realized that that also needed to be disposed of, and it was too intact, recognizable an item to risk dropping in a garbage can.

These plates and how they were used/misused drives me batty!
Did FD alter them and put them on the Raptor hoping to further point the finger at EE on 5/24 in NC?
Did he use them on EE red truck to help himself out as he did the deed and disposal?
Did he use them on the Raptor for his jaunt throughout the Albany Ave trash disposal?
What else could he have used them for?
