I will echo jetliner's correct statement. U.S. domestic flights are not positive bag matched. Efforts are made, when possible, to remove bags if a passenger no-shows for a flight but on a bulk loaded plane with hundreds of bags, it's not reasonable to expect to be able to find and remove it. Even the government apparently realized this and allows for bags to travel without passengers domestically.
Also, how do you think bags that end up in the wrong place get to where they are supposed to be? Does the passenger fly to where it is then fly back?
