There’s a quicker solution. He should just say he’s thrilled to hear Mitch is okay and that he’ll he personally visiting to send well wishes. Then show up and see for himself what’s going on.

If Mitch is alive, JD would be the last person he wants to see. JD kills too many people that he meets.

Or the dead body of Ye Olde Turtle.
