Former FBI Agent Tells Katie Couric That Nancy Guthrie Security Footage Looks 'Staged'

Find out why the agent finds the released footage of Nancy's alleged abductor suspicious.

www.tvinsider.com

Here’s an interesting interview with two retired FBI agents (Katie Couric interviewing). They lay out some convincing opinions that the front porch drama was staged to detract attention from the actual abduction through the rear door. So, two abductors… And is there a possibility that some small bit of evidence was possibly thrown/dropped into the pool?

I do think the primary perpetrators were at the back door smashing that light and going in through the back door. I have thought NG was taken out through the front door because of the blood (and that was why nest cam was taken out) but it sure would make far more sense if she was taken out through the back door. Much more private, no chance of anybody seeing anything. MO

Such tension again. I hope the suspect doesn't have children or a family, because it will be very terrible.

In certain situations, LE will ensure that children in the home do not witness an arrest of a parent(s). But in a situation like this, if there are children, there may be no way to shield them if SWAT makes entry into the home. Ultimately, it is the parent(s) who put children in harm's way by engaging in illegal activity. Not LE.

I suspect the DNA that they found is coming from a place that that type of DNA shouldn’t be.
For instance, It might be normal if the workmen’s dna is on the door knob or kitchen counter, it’s not normal if the workmen’s dna is found in your private bed sheets.

Good point. MO

You didn't say anything new, but I feel sorry for the children.

This is legit circus.

I’ve seen numerous references to NG having help of various kinds (pool, yard work), plus there was a NYT article today that placed friends in her home days before she went missing: Nancy Guthrie’s Friends Refuse to Give Up Hope She’s Alive

As I stated, it’s not surprising that DNA was found in her home outside of hers or her family’s. That’s what I was responding to.

I see. I didn't see that article that placed friends inside of her home.

Felony Fridaaaayyyy Let’s Gooooo!

Earlier tonight the Sheriff confirmed that DNA other than Nancy or those in close contact to her was found from her property.

Could they be negotiating with him???

 

[CHEL]

Pretty sure the media got tricked with the location they were at.

 

[milkshakedonkey]

LOL. The media decoy. So good.

 

[shonyakay]

Could someone fill me? Is there an approved source?

This is legit circus.

Now all media leaving, possibly tricked into going to wrong neighborhood!

If they took her out the back door they would have to take her over all of the broken glass from smashed door/window and floodlights outside back patio door. Seems higher risk for transfer of material besides it being much more difficult/messy.

I see. I didn't see that article that placed friends inside of her home.

This is a beautiful article about Nancy Guthries, many comments from friends that confirms they visited.

“two days before her disappearance, when she insisted on walking to the end of her gravel driveway to get the mail, even if a friend had to help.”

“I keep thinking about every time I’d go in the kitchen door, and she’d be sitting there at the counter, just how her eyes would always light up as soon as she saw me,” said Ms. Burnson, who has been friends with Ms. Guthrie for 42 years. “That’s when you know you have a real friend.”

“She enjoyed cooking for friends”

“On Jan. 26, the day before her birthday, Ms. Federhar dropped off a balloon and treats on her doorstep. The next day, Ms. Burnson, who has family roots in New Orleans, set out some nice crystal, cooked shrimp and grits and made beignets.”

Shortly before her disappearance, Ms. Guthrie, the mother of the NBC host Savannah Guthrie, was celebrating her 84th birthday and playing games.

How do you know the ransom letters were written by the “perps”? I’m just wandering because maybe I missed something?

They haven't been publicly connected to them by LE but they contain contents unknown to anybody but the perp.

They are not at that location where people are saying, this was intentional for the media. That is what I believe and my opinion. Because that street they shared that they were off of is not near that address. Unless, since the POI was not home, they are locating them through the cell, like they were doing???

I don’t think it was intentional/a “decoy”, as LE never said that’s the address they were heading to, it’s just that the media (amongst others,) jumped to conclusions as to who was going to be SWATted.
