WEBVTT - Legally Brunette: Nancy Guthrie Is Missing 0:00:01.560 --> 0:00:05.119 Hi, guys, Welcome to a new episode of Legally Brunette. 0:00:05.120 --> 0:00:09.520 I will be your host Emily Simpson and Shane Just Shane. 0:00:10.440 --> 0:00:13.119 Today we are going to discuss breaking news that Nancy 0:00:13.160 --> 0:00:16.360 Guthrie is missing, story which I'm sure you've all heard 0:00:16.360 --> 0:00:18.960 about unless you've been living under a rock, because it's 0:00:19.040 --> 0:00:22.680 basically everywhere. So we would just want to talk about 0:00:22.760 --> 0:00:24.720 where we're at. There's been so much information that's been 0:00:24.720 --> 0:00:26.360 coming out. Every time I look at what is my 0:00:26.440 --> 0:00:30.600 new source, Instagram, Instagram. Every time I look at Instagram, 0:00:30.640 --> 0:00:33.680 there's just a new update. And there was a press 0:00:33.680 --> 0:00:37.159 conference today a couple hours ago. So I feel as 0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:40.600 if we are bringing you the most recent developments. But 0:00:40.640 --> 0:00:43.440 by the time we record this they'll probably they'll probably 0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:46.200 be more. We'll be talking about it again. So eighty 0:00:46.200 --> 0:00:49.080 four year old Nancy Guthrie is the mother of Today 0:00:49.159 --> 0:00:52.080 co host Savannah Guthrie, and she remains missing from her 0:00:52.120 --> 0:00:56.080 Tucson area home. Authorities continue to treat the case as 0:00:56.120 --> 0:01:01.520 a criminal investigation. Investigators recently returned to her property, conducting 0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:06.560 renewed searches with canine units and combing nearby wooded areas, 0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:11.920 indicating new or ongoing leads. Law enforcement says evidence at 0:01:11.920 --> 0:01:15.200 the home suggests that she was taken against her will, 0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:20.240 including biological DNA and blood near the entry and signs 0:01:20.280 --> 0:01:24.480 of forced entry. No suspects or persons of interests have 0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:28.840 been publicly identified, other than by what we were talking 0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:31.880 about earlier by Ashley Banfield, but we'll talk about that 0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:36.520 and a little bit. Authorities are investigating reports of ransom notes, 0:01:36.920 --> 0:01:40.679 some reportedly sent to media outlets. Savannah Guthrie and her 0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:44.400 siblings released a public video appeal This was yesterday, asking 0:01:44.440 --> 0:01:47.280 for proof of life and saying they are willing to 0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:50.720 communicate if her mother is alive. I watched it. It 0:01:50.760 --> 0:01:54.120 was actually heartbreaking. It was Samantha and her sister and brother. 0:01:54.160 --> 0:01:59.720 There's three siblings, and you know what I was thinking, 0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:04.200 is so difficult in today's age? Is proof of life? 0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:05.120 I mean with AI. 0:02:05.480 --> 0:02:06.920 Well that's what they said in their video. 0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:08.840 Right and I and I But when they said that, 0:02:08.919 --> 0:02:11.760 I thought that, how do I mean, at this point 0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:14.040 in time, how do you have proof of life? Because 0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:17.360 you can manipulate voices. You could say she's on the 0:02:17.360 --> 0:02:18.880 phone and it could be her voice. 0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:20.720 But well, the old days used to be held up 0:02:20.760 --> 0:02:22.520 a newspaper and took a picture with it. So it 0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:25.680 was like, this is the date. I'm alive on this day, right, 0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:28.000 But now, what are you going to do? 0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:29.359 I mean you there are. 0:02:31.480 --> 0:02:31.799 The time. 0:02:32.520 --> 0:02:36.240 That's what I'm saying, Like, what in today's age, right now, 0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:39.760 as of this moment, what could you do to prove 0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:43.360 proof of life? Because I feel like everything could be. 0:02:43.280 --> 0:02:48.040 Manipulated in or like a real time conversation, It. 0:02:48.040 --> 0:02:51.960 Would have to be a real time FaceTime conversation where 0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:53.840 you were asking, Well. 0:02:53.720 --> 0:02:55.560 You could ask him a question that only that person 0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:56.120 would know. 0:02:57.919 --> 0:02:58.840 That's true. 0:02:59.120 --> 0:03:01.800 Yeah, so that's what you would do. 0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:04.760 Yeah, But I still feel like you would have to 0:03:04.800 --> 0:03:09.480 have more than that because maybe these I don't know you, yeah, exactly. 0:03:09.040 --> 0:03:12.760 Feel like what's your favorite song? And they'll be like, oh, 0:03:12.800 --> 0:03:15.760 it's I don't know what's your favorite? I don't know, 0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:17.520 And then I'd be like, I don't know, is that 0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:20.200 her favorite song? Yeah? I think it's her hurt. 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:23.920 So authorities are investigating reports of ransom notes. We talked 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:26.639 about that talked about proof of life, and the FBI 0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:30.120 is assisting and federal resources have been offered official stress 0:03:30.240 --> 0:03:34.760 urgency because Nancy got three requires daily medication, increasing concern 0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:38.600 for her health and safety. Yeah, she's eighty four, and 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:42.320 we know that she has a pacemaker because that was 0:03:42.560 --> 0:03:47.680 reported that you know, her pacemaker disconnected from her phone or. 0:03:48.160 --> 0:03:51.760 Likely from being removed further away from her watch, her 0:03:51.800 --> 0:03:54.040 phone or whatever it was, whatever device, and so it 0:03:54.080 --> 0:03:56.920 lost contact, right and at almost two in the morning 0:03:56.960 --> 0:03:57.360 or something. 0:03:57.760 --> 0:04:00.240 Well, they released they did a press conference today, also 0:04:00.280 --> 0:04:03.680 released a timeline. I looked at the timeline several times 0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:07.200 because it's pretty specific, and I realized how much of 0:04:07.200 --> 0:04:09.240 a digital age we live in that even her opening 0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:11.920 the garage door and closing it like that was time 0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:12.640 standing and then. 0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:16.160 Her uber right, So it has drop off times, and. 0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:19.200 So we know on January thirty first, at five thirty 0:04:19.240 --> 0:04:22.880 two pm, Nancy travels to a local family member's home. 0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:25.800 I believe that she had dinner with family that night. 0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:28.400 Then at nine forty eight pm that night, this is 0:04:28.400 --> 0:04:31.440 still in January thirty first, the family drops Nancy off 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:34.760 at home and the garage door opens. So there's some 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:37.720 digital footprint of the garage door opening. How do you 0:04:37.760 --> 0:04:39.719 find that? Can you find that on your garage door? 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:41.040 Like we have an electric garage door. 0:04:41.080 --> 0:04:44.000 I think it was her what time she got dropped off, 0:04:44.000 --> 0:04:45.600 and what time she closed the garage door. 0:04:45.600 --> 0:04:47.279 It was nine fifty But how do you how do 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:49.120 they know that? I'm saying they know specifically what time 0:04:49.120 --> 0:04:51.480 the garage door opened and what time it closed. I'm 0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:52.719 just saying, does the garage. 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:55.479 R connected her phone? You know? Yeah? 0:04:56.279 --> 0:05:00.160 So then at nine to fifty pm the garage door closes. 0:05:00.600 --> 0:05:04.040 Now the following morning, this is now February first, at 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:09.680 one seven am, a doorbell camera disconnects. That's scary. So 0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.160 what that's a ring? Right? A ring camera? 0:05:12.440 --> 0:05:14.960 Yeah, well it rings a brand, but it's a doorbell camera. 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:18.840 Okay, And it disconnects. Then at two twelve am, software 0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:23.360 detects a person on camera. However, there's no video available. 0:05:22.920 --> 0:05:26.719 To the Emotion subscription. IT'SID motion detected, but they didn't 0:05:26.760 --> 0:05:30.400 preserve the video because they didn't they didn't subscribe. 0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:32.600 Okay, we're going to come back to that because I 0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:34.560 want you to explain that. And then at two twenty 0:05:34.600 --> 0:05:39.159 eight am, the pacemaker app shows a disconnect from her phone, 0:05:39.560 --> 0:05:42.480 which you were saying. It's a disconnect at two twenty 0:05:42.480 --> 0:05:44.960 eight because she's outside the realm of the bluetooth being 0:05:45.000 --> 0:05:47.320 able to pick it up right, so she's probably. 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:51.080 Sad thinking and if she was killed right then and there, 0:05:51.680 --> 0:05:55.320 and therefore her heart's not beating, I'm guessing the pacemaker 0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:57.400 still transmits some type of dat. 0:05:57.360 --> 0:06:00.280 Some type of information, but it's not transmitting any information, So. 0:06:00.200 --> 0:06:02.919 She's outside not reaching the receiving end, yeah, like the 0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:04.400 phone or watch or whatever it is. 0:06:04.640 --> 0:06:08.080 Then at eleven fifty six am, the family checks on Nancy. 0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:09.840 I believe that's because she was supposed to be at 0:06:09.880 --> 0:06:13.279 church that morning and she didn't show up for church, 0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:16.800 so then the family was they someone contacted the family 0:06:16.839 --> 0:06:19.520 and said, you know, Nancy wasn't at church, and then 0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:22.360 at twelve oh three pm they called nine to one one, 0:06:22.520 --> 0:06:25.320 and then at twelve fifteen that's when the police arrive. 0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:29.120 So that's the timeline. Now as far as the subscription, See, 0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:30.720 this is what I don't understand because I'm not a 0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:33.279 techie person at all, and you were just making fun 0:06:33.320 --> 0:06:35.960 of me a minute ago saying that I don't even 0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:37.599 know how to turn on a computer, which is not 0:06:37.720 --> 0:06:41.080 an exaggeration. I literally don't know how to do anything 0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:42.800 technical at all. 0:06:43.040 --> 0:06:45.960 I just agree because you know anything about Instagram. Yeah, 0:06:46.000 --> 0:06:48.800 but I never said, hey, here's a shopping app. Can 0:06:48.839 --> 0:06:51.120 you help me install it and set it? Note you've 0:06:51.160 --> 0:06:54.240 never had a problem buying anything at a digital age, 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:56.599 so you can learn. You choose not to. 0:06:56.800 --> 0:07:00.240 I choose not to. Shane, is the IT department our 0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:04.040 home And so as far as there being no subscription, 0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:06.800 that means that the ring or whatever type of doorbell 0:07:06.839 --> 0:07:08.720 she has, it's just on a loop and it's not 0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:09.359 saving it. 0:07:09.440 --> 0:07:11.920 You can just see live video. It's like a peephole. 0:07:12.680 --> 0:07:15.200 You can see so right now you could log in 0:07:15.960 --> 0:07:18.360 and see what's at your front door. But it's not 0:07:18.440 --> 0:07:19.120 preserving it. 0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:21.520 So what does that mean when it says it was disabled? 0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:22.440 What did someone do? 0:07:22.720 --> 0:07:26.120 They just they it's still connected to Wi Fi. 0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:29.160 Okay, But my question is for someone whoever this is 0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:32.600 this person of interests or whoever abducted her to disable it? 0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:35.040 They are they inside the house at this point? 0:07:35.360 --> 0:07:37.480 The doorbell is on the outside of the house. 0:07:37.640 --> 0:07:39.480 That's what my question is. How do they how are 0:07:39.480 --> 0:07:40.400 they disabling it? 0:07:40.800 --> 0:07:44.080 They yank it off the wall and they they smash it. 0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:46.680 So you're saying, that's oh, so it wasn't like some. 0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:48.920 What do you think they do? They tapped in with 0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:51.680 some laptop and they were like, yes, sitting there like 0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:52.440 mission and bunds. 0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:53.640 Yeah, that's what I pictured. 0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:55.920 No, they yanked it off the doorframe and then they 0:07:56.160 --> 0:07:56.880 took it with them. 0:07:56.880 --> 0:08:00.160 So you're saying they just removed it and then okay, 0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:02.960 all right, well okay, but the takeaway from this is 0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:05.440 that you should have a subscription if. 0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:07.920 You want to up your safety. She had a subscription. 0:08:08.680 --> 0:08:12.720 It would have saved whatever video was captured. I don't 0:08:12.720 --> 0:08:13.960 know if they would have been on it. I don't 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:16.080 know if they came in from the back door and 0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:17.880 then went to the front door without getting in front 0:08:17.880 --> 0:08:19.760 of the camera and yanked it. I don't know, but 0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:23.239 it would have shown something something other than just motion 0:08:23.400 --> 0:08:33.320 detected and then disabled. All right. 0:08:33.360 --> 0:08:36.079 So then on Monday, February second, authorities officially upgrade the 0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:39.680 case to a criminal investigation. The sheriff says evidence indicates 0:08:39.720 --> 0:08:42.559 she did not leave voluntarily, and the FBI joins the case. 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:44.760 We do know that there was blood found on the 0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:46.040 front porch. 0:08:45.760 --> 0:08:46.760 Like blood drops. 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:48.840 It blood drops. I saw a photo of it. It 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:51.520 wasn't a large amount of blood, not enough for you 0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:56.640 to say death, she's deceased. It was like dribbles of blood. 0:08:57.160 --> 0:09:01.160 But then my question is what type of enjury occurred 0:09:02.840 --> 0:09:05.480 that would make someone bleed, but not with an intent 0:09:05.640 --> 0:09:06.120 to kill. 0:09:06.320 --> 0:09:08.160 I mean, that's not that far fetched. 0:09:08.480 --> 0:09:10.439 I don't know, it's just so sadistic. So I think 0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:12.240 someone just broke into this woman's. 0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:14.040 Home, smacker on the head, and then they pull her out. 0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:15.360 I don't know, it could have been anything. 0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:18.719 Then, on Tuesday, February third, the officials confirmed that the 0:09:18.800 --> 0:09:21.760 DNA evidence was collected from inside the home and have 0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:24.680 confirmed that her blood was found near the front door 0:09:24.679 --> 0:09:28.160 as well. Officials are now saying that there's been no 0:09:28.280 --> 0:09:31.839 proof of life, and reports of a possible ransom note 0:09:32.040 --> 0:09:36.160 start to emerge. Now that ransom note is just throwing 0:09:36.200 --> 0:09:39.640 me for a loop because there's multiple ransom notes. As 0:09:39.679 --> 0:09:41.320 far as what I understand. 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:42.280 I said the end of the day, I think they're 0:09:42.360 --> 0:09:45.440 just milking the opportunity. 0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:49.000 Okay, so something, let's talk about the ransom notes. So 0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:52.439 TMZ was the first to reveal details about a ransom note. 0:09:52.480 --> 0:09:56.080 Investigators are saying this is the only note they're taking seriously. 0:09:56.360 --> 0:09:58.160 But that doesn't make sense to me because there was 0:09:58.200 --> 0:10:02.199 also another ransom note that came into a Tucson news 0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:08.240 news station, and I saw them talking about it and 0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:11.960 giving a report on it. And that ransom note has 0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:15.680 corroborating evidence in it that talks specifically about what the 0:10:15.679 --> 0:10:17.480 inside of the house looks like and about what Nancy 0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:20.400 was wearing that evening. So I don't know, but they're 0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:23.000 saying the only note, ransom note they're taking seriously is 0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:23.880 such an MC one. 0:10:23.920 --> 0:10:26.200 I mean, I don't know, I don't know. 0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:28.680 So TMZ reported that the note, which was sent to 0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:32.920 them Tuesday morning, demands a specific and very substantial amount 0:10:32.960 --> 0:10:35.800 of bitcoin. The amount is in the millions, and the 0:10:35.840 --> 0:10:40.720 note demands the cryptocurrency be sent to a specific bitcoin address. 0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:44.640 TMZ has verified that the bitcoin address is real. Now, 0:10:44.640 --> 0:10:46.520 how do you know? Can you? How can you have 0:10:46.520 --> 0:10:49.000 an anonymous bitcoin address? And then how do you withdraw 0:10:49.160 --> 0:10:53.920 from it? I'm this all this technology stuff is just 0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:55.600 boggling my mind. 0:10:55.760 --> 0:10:58.319 I don't know. Maybe these, maybe both ransom notes are real. 0:10:58.320 --> 0:11:01.719 Maybe it's like the criminals are just goofballs and they 0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:03.080 don't know what they're doing. They're like, wait, you sin 0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:04.880 a ransom? No I sent a ransom. No, Wait who 0:11:04.920 --> 0:11:06.720 did you send yours? To? Wait? How much are you 0:11:06.760 --> 0:11:08.920 asking for That's what it was like. 0:11:08.880 --> 0:11:09.680 I said it to TMZ. 0:11:09.760 --> 0:11:11.800 Where did you say, it's like the three stooges, they 0:11:11.800 --> 0:11:12.560 don't know what they're doing. 0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:16.080 Well, I would hope for Nancy's sake that you're right, 0:11:16.120 --> 0:11:19.960 that it's just some dumb, dumb juices that abducted her, 0:11:20.120 --> 0:11:24.440 and hopefully she's okay again. TMC has verified the bitcoin 0:11:24.480 --> 0:11:26.760 address is real. I don't even understand what bitcoin is, 0:11:26.800 --> 0:11:28.720 and I will tell you I own some bitcoin. I 0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:31.560 bought some just because I just felt like it, because 0:11:31.600 --> 0:11:35.160 it seemed like the thing to do, and it's actually increased. 0:11:35.200 --> 0:11:37.400 I now have more bitcoin than I used to have. 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:39.680 But I don't know what it. 0:11:39.600 --> 0:11:44.520 Is or how What is what is money? Really? 0:11:44.520 --> 0:11:47.040 I don't even understand that content either, because it's like 0:11:47.080 --> 0:11:49.160 paper money isn't really money. It has to be backed 0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:52.800 by gold, right, So what is bitcoin? 0:11:53.559 --> 0:11:55.720 It's just a digital currency. 0:11:56.240 --> 0:11:59.480 But I don't know. I don't understand bitcoin. 0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:02.679 You don't need it understanding. I understand that she is missing, 0:12:02.920 --> 0:12:04.880 I know, and there's a ransom note and they want 0:12:04.920 --> 0:12:05.600 something for her. 0:12:05.920 --> 0:12:09.160 There is a deadline connected to the alleged ransom, and 0:12:09.200 --> 0:12:13.600 an element of or else the alleged ransom note. Else 0:12:13.679 --> 0:12:15.080 what I don't know. 0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:17.480 That means they don't have a plan. There's that that 0:12:17.520 --> 0:12:19.400 almost sounds like a fake ransom note because they don't 0:12:19.400 --> 0:12:19.960 even know what to do. 0:12:20.280 --> 0:12:22.280 Well, I don't know if they literally said or else, 0:12:22.320 --> 0:12:26.600 because they're just not giving away actual what the verbiage 0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:29.600 actually is. They're just summarizing it was a large amount 0:12:29.600 --> 0:12:31.800 of money. Well, you know, they're not doing that publicly 0:12:31.840 --> 0:12:33.840 because they want to be able to you know, they 0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:36.079 don't want to give too much information about the ransom note, 0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:39.680 the alleged I like how they called alleged ransom note 0:12:39.760 --> 0:12:41.120 because we're not talking. 0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:46.520 About like validity. Is alleged r note exists? 0:12:46.840 --> 0:12:48.079 So are we saying TMZ? 0:12:48.400 --> 0:12:50.480 I don't believe it much from TMZ really. 0:12:50.360 --> 0:12:53.760 Is so the alleged ransom note also describes another item 0:12:53.800 --> 0:12:57.120 the sender says was damaged at her Tucson area at home. See, 0:12:57.120 --> 0:13:00.240 now that's that's corroborating if they talk about some that 0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:02.719 was damaged when they abducted her. 0:13:02.920 --> 0:13:04.520 Yeah, unless it's an inside job. 0:13:04.920 --> 0:13:05.880 What is inside job? 0:13:06.120 --> 0:13:08.760 Like what if it's like a police officer it was 0:13:08.800 --> 0:13:10.680 like in on it and he's like, oh sweet, I 0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:12.400 know this is broken. I know she was wearing this. 0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:13.599 I'm going to send a ransom. 0:13:13.520 --> 0:13:17.080 Oh you're saying like someone involved in the investigation is 0:13:17.120 --> 0:13:19.400 making ransom notes on the side, trying to make some 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:21.320 trying to get some bitcoin. 0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:25.480 Like the housekeeper grounds keeper. I don't know they forwarded 0:13:25.720 --> 0:13:28.040 for they should, They should do a little combing of 0:13:28.080 --> 0:13:30.760 the who'sn't working in the area and see if anyone's 0:13:30.760 --> 0:13:33.760 from the Boston PD. Yes, because they're. 0:13:33.600 --> 0:13:38.240 Shady, right, they forwarded the alleged ransom demand to the 0:13:38.280 --> 0:13:42.960 Pima County Sheriff. Then now we Pema County, Pema County, 0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:47.199 p I m A Pema. On Wednesday, February fourth, CNN 0:13:47.280 --> 0:13:49.559 came out with more reports on the note as well, 0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:55.360 and anchor Mary Coleman appeared on CNN's Aaron Burnett out 0:13:55.360 --> 0:13:58.280 Front to reveal information about the alleged ransom note the 0:13:58.280 --> 0:14:02.000 station received. See this is where I question, is this 0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:05.480 the same ransom note that also went to TMZ or 0:14:05.520 --> 0:14:07.559 is this a different ransom note? 0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:08.960 This is where I don't know. 0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:13.559 So, Coleman said, she is a news anchor that works 0:14:13.559 --> 0:14:16.679 at this news station that received a ransom note. There 0:14:16.720 --> 0:14:18.520 are a few things that we can share as far 0:14:18.559 --> 0:14:20.680 as what the contents were, a lot of it is 0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:23.440 information that only someone who is holding her for ransom 0:14:23.600 --> 0:14:27.080 would know, some very sensitive information and things that people 0:14:27.160 --> 0:14:31.200 who were there when she was taken captive would know. See. 0:14:31.240 --> 0:14:33.840 I find that interesting because in the press conference the 0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:36.440 police said that they only are taking the ransom note 0:14:36.440 --> 0:14:38.520 from that the TMZ ransom note is the only one 0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:41.640 they're taking. Seriously. However, this news anchor is talking about 0:14:41.640 --> 0:14:44.360 the ransom note that the news station received and saying 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:46.080 that it has corroborating would. 0:14:45.920 --> 0:14:48.440 Make you think that's two different notes, two. 0:14:48.360 --> 0:14:50.840 Different notes, or why are the police not. 0:14:50.840 --> 0:14:52.600 Saying a photocopy of the other? 0:14:52.920 --> 0:14:56.120 I don't know, she continued, So those are things that 0:14:56.200 --> 0:14:59.400 are concerning. We immediately sent that information over to the 0:14:59.400 --> 0:15:03.640 sheriff's to apartment. Additionally, Coleman said a detective asked for 0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:07.280 more information about an IP address for the email. She 0:15:07.360 --> 0:15:10.560 also confirmed that the ransom letter included a dollar amount 0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:13.920 as well as a deadline and other specifics that only 0:15:14.000 --> 0:15:18.440 Guthrie's abductor might know. So that definitely raised some red flag. 0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:20.200 So again there's my question, are. 0:15:20.120 --> 0:15:22.600 We talking by email? 0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:23.840 It was by email? 0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:25.760 Okay? So it wasn't like the where they cut up 0:15:25.760 --> 0:15:28.240 the little magazine letters. Now that's old school. 0:15:28.280 --> 0:15:29.840 That's old school. They don't do that anymore. 0:15:29.960 --> 0:15:31.120 They won cryptocurrency. 0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:33.800 Yeah, they went bitcoin and they sent emails. 0:15:33.880 --> 0:15:39.840 Yeah okay. 0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:46.480 Also on Wednesday, February fourth, investigators returned to Nancy's home 0:15:46.520 --> 0:15:49.320 with K nine units and an online prayer vigil for 0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:52.520 Nancy was held. So here we are currently, where are 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:56.640 we at? Savannah Guthrie? This is the daughter has issued 0:15:56.640 --> 0:15:59.080 a public plea for the safe return of her mother. 0:15:59.280 --> 0:16:02.240 In a video released with her siblings, the family address 0:16:02.320 --> 0:16:07.200 reports of potential ransom messages, asking anyone involved to confirm 0:16:07.680 --> 0:16:11.240 that Nancy Guthrie is alive, and stating we are ready 0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:14.120 to listen, you know. That says we're ready to negotiate. 0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:17.280 That says we got your ransom letters. There are some 0:16:17.360 --> 0:16:19.360 things that are concerning in them. Is what I would 0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:23.160 take away from that that there's information that seems specific 0:16:23.600 --> 0:16:26.640 and knowledgeable only to someone that would have been there. 0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:30.760 Savannah Guthrie has said that her mother suffers from chronic 0:16:30.840 --> 0:16:36.240 pain and depends on daily prescription medication, heightening fears about 0:16:36.280 --> 0:16:39.880 the risk that she faces while she is missing. P 0:16:40.040 --> 0:16:43.680 MC County's Sheriff Chris Nanos, held a press conference earlier 0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:47.280 today to share the latest information. During the news conference, 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:51.880 Heath Jenkie, who is the FBI Phoenix's Special Agent in charge, 0:16:51.920 --> 0:16:55.760 confirmed that one arrest was made regarding an impostor ransom note. 0:16:55.920 --> 0:16:59.400 See that's my question. If one is an impostor, I'm 0:16:59.440 --> 0:17:01.520 going to assume the one that went to the police 0:17:01.520 --> 0:17:02.680 station is possibly the. 0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:05.040 I read that both were sent to the police station, 0:17:05.280 --> 0:17:07.720 because I think that's probably a good protocol. And I 0:17:07.720 --> 0:17:10.240 think right now, I think they're not They're purposely not 0:17:11.000 --> 0:17:14.160 providing all the information publicly, like that's not their concern, 0:17:14.600 --> 0:17:17.240 and plus THEYD to verify things. What if these two 0:17:17.280 --> 0:17:21.000 ransom notes were written by people that are connected. So 0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:23.720 I mean, I think they're being very careful in what 0:17:23.760 --> 0:17:26.399 they're allowing the public to know. And that's why we 0:17:26.440 --> 0:17:29.320 don't know everything right now about these two ransom notes, 0:17:29.440 --> 0:17:32.280 right Like I so, I think your questions are valid. 0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:35.800 Are they the same, are they different? Blah blah blah, 0:17:36.000 --> 0:17:38.320 And I think what you said is all we know 0:17:38.440 --> 0:17:38.880 right now. 0:17:39.240 --> 0:17:41.280 Well, it's very difficult to connect all the dots right 0:17:41.320 --> 0:17:43.840 now because they are giving a very limited amount of information, 0:17:43.960 --> 0:17:46.400 like you said, So it's like we have these conclusions. 0:17:46.600 --> 0:17:48.919 There's a ransom note. TMZ got a ransom note, this 0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:51.439 news station got a ransom note, but it's hard to 0:17:51.560 --> 0:17:54.720 figure out what was said, which one is the imposter, 0:17:54.880 --> 0:17:55.399 which one is. 0:17:56.920 --> 0:17:59.280 They're still looking for suspects, so even if they think, hey, 0:17:59.280 --> 0:18:01.439 this one's fake, but maybe they don't want to tell 0:18:01.480 --> 0:18:05.320 people because maybe they wanted to weed out more people suspects. 0:18:05.320 --> 0:18:08.639 I don't know. So the special Agent in charge of 0:18:08.680 --> 0:18:11.960 this case confirmed that one arrest was made regarding an 0:18:11.960 --> 0:18:15.160 impostor ransom note. The FBI is now offering a fifty 0:18:15.200 --> 0:18:19.560 thousand dollars award for information that will help find Nancy. Now, 0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:22.560 that was they found. If they arrested someone, that means 0:18:22.640 --> 0:18:25.320 they figured out that the note was an impostor, figured 0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:28.080 out who sent it, found the person, and arrested them. 0:18:28.119 --> 0:18:28.680 That was quick. 0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:33.639 Yeah, that's because it's digital. Someone just typed up a 0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:36.359 note and dropped it off at the station, news station 0:18:36.440 --> 0:18:39.720 and police station. The old school was like, where did 0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:43.400 this paper come from? Okay? But then what typewriter was used? 0:18:43.440 --> 0:18:44.120 Were the typewriter? 0:18:44.160 --> 0:18:46.400 Okay? But here's my question. If that person was so 0:18:46.480 --> 0:18:50.440 easily found. Then the person who sent the ransom note 0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:52.639 to TMZ the one that they're saying is legitimate that 0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:55.720 they're taking seriously. They haven't arrested anyone connected with that. 0:18:55.560 --> 0:18:59.040 That means because the fake one is by some sloppy 0:18:59.080 --> 0:19:01.200 meth head trying to get a few bucks. He's trying 0:19:01.200 --> 0:19:02.840 to get some bed. The one is a little bit 0:19:02.880 --> 0:19:03.600 more thought out. 0:19:04.040 --> 0:19:07.320 Is the actual abductor, is what we would conclude at 0:19:07.320 --> 0:19:10.480 this point, the FBI agent said, in regards to the 0:19:10.560 --> 0:19:13.040 ransom note, the one that went to the media is 0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:16.200 the one we're currently investigating and working on. The impostor 0:19:16.240 --> 0:19:18.200 that I talked about, where an arrest was made early 0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:21.840 this morning, that there will be more information. We believe 0:19:21.880 --> 0:19:24.800 there is no evidence to connect this to Nancy's case. 0:19:25.080 --> 0:19:27.159 It was someone that was trying to profit from it, 0:19:27.280 --> 0:19:31.520
