I didn’t think you were off base for asking at all . Hope I was nice by replying with the video of Investigators carrying the big rolled up “ what appears to be a map “ so folks could see what we’re talking about.

Not following. They want the bitcoin paid by a deadline or they'll kill the lady. Pressure to get paid. Apparently they have not received any ransom payment yet and are upping the ante with a deadline and a threat.What makes no sense about this part is that paying a ransom via cryptocurrency can happen anytime. It’s not like anyone needs to be waiting around for money drop instructions.
People seem to be thinking Monday at 5 pm some transaction will take place and we’ll see action, but for all any of us know, the money has already been transferred.
I could open my Venmo and send some ransom right now if I wanted to.
And they want everyone to keep talking and not lawyer up, so they don't want anyone to be declared a suspect, because that is when they lawyer up. LE also needs a body. Once this eventually hits a jury, no body is harder to prove a crime. If you have a body, usually you can find cause of death, then you might find a murder weapon. Lots to gain from getting a body. Anyone remember Kyron Horman case? Never found; stepmother did it IMO. LE never could bring charges because they really needed more physical evidence. (I lived just a few miles from where he disappeared and followed the case very, very, very closely. I worked out at the gym that they went to. For years the gym still had a fence with Kyron's picture, balloons, and flowers for him....)
So, the family is gong to pay, although investigators are not convinced the ransom is legitimate? Wow. Then what if it's not? Back to zero in the investigation.I found this paragraph in this NYT article interesting.
Experts in hostage negotiation said they could detect resignation in the statement, as if the family feared the elder Ms. Guthrie dead. But Mr. Leising, the retired F.B.I. agent, said the wording of the message was purposefully vague, a sign that investigators were not convinced the ransom note was legitimate.
“The possibility that it’s fraudulent, and these people don’t have Nancy, is still high,” Mr. Leising said.

I love when a thoughtful commenter does this too!!Thank you for a sentence on what's behind the link! some of us don't have SM
Anything is possible here.
This investigation is a right mess if they're just now getting around to checking the septic tank.Oh goodness. What are the looking at there? Is that the sewer?
Investigators from the Pima County Sheriff’s Department are back at Nancy Guthrie’s home. @abc15’s drone capturing this image of their work in the backyard
I am not convinced she was kidnapped still. I still think it could be family related and the kidnapping ransom is a completely separate crime.I found this paragraph in this NYT article interesting.
