.... .... .... .... ....

I think he had a flashlight in his mouth. It's possible he put dna on his hand when he removed it.

OH WOW, that is VERY possible, especially if the perp wasn't thinking. Let's hope. Sure doesn't look like someone with high intelligence that could write a grammatically correct ransom note?

Former Navy Seal commander Dan O’Shea discussed the decision to release the footage in an interview with Sky News Australia this morning.

He said releasing the footage so publicly was a risk, but one that could help to flush out the suspect.

“This ups the game… he knows he has a target on his back and he’s in a desperate situation,” O’Shea said.

“Let’s hope this puts pressure on this individual to let her go and try and sneak away.”

O’Shea also argued that the release of the footage reveals how desperate the authorities must be, as they are willing to show the suspect that they have footage that could help identify them.

O’Shea said that, based on the footage, the suspect appears to be “obviously a man... he looks like he’s over 200 pounds (90kg).

Authorities said today that the images from the security camera had been “previously inaccessible.”

She can press a panic button or dial 911 tho. How did he know she wouldn't do that? How did he know she couldn't see him on the camera feed?

IMO perps had already been inside when this footage was filmed. But JMO.

Sound asleep at 2am most likely

I'm still sticking with "it was someone on the roofing crew"<modsnip>

Did she recently have her roof done?

Or tracking the place he bought all those items. Maybe a shopkeeper remembers someone coming in to buy a ski mask, which is a pretty memorable thing to buy at this time of year in a warm

That's a good point, I'm trying to figure out if this is some setup however $300 instead of 6 million. I wouldn't bite. IMO

It is very common in bitcoin to send test amounts, especially before you move lots of money.

Fox News (national level) said SWAT and bomb squad headed southeast of Tucson. This was said on air 10-15 minutes ago. Been trying to find a clip, mods I can delete if needed.

This was the second time they said it, but was able to catch it this time. Repeating that SWAT team headed 45ish miles SE of Tucson.

Right, data going to the dr is different than the device checking in with the recipient's own phone or watch. I was only referring to the latter.

Yes it IS different. I would think the device would have sent an alert at the time NG was awakened by that lunatic due to heart racing.

Did some AI reconstruction... And female is a strong possiblity

The body shape and gait is what points to a male, in my opinion.

I am kinda stuck on they keep going back to Annie's house-- I don't know what to think about this except that she and her husband are suspects.

I was thinking maybe they think she was followed home from there.

This could be a long night...someone pass me a stimulant please!

I'll have whatever Brian Entin takes. The man never sleeps

 

[Sakura2Sophia4Lucia]

Why would they tip off a kidnapper??

Maybe the kidnapper gave them the information in exchange for the ransom or money promised if NG is returned to them.

 

[gammagirl]

This active news day is the WORST day to be a working girl.... gonna have to catch up.

The person is a female and AI is not good for these things. I don’t think it is approved either to post.

Why do you say the person is female?

If that's the case, which it may well be, why did this person take Nancy and to where? What do you think might have been in that backpack?

Wow, it’s so difficult to even guess. IMO maybe they took Nancy because they didn’t want anyone, especially LE, to know exactly what they were up to, less evidence left behind. IMO maybe they wanted to get a jump start on their plan to take her wherever they planned to take her. IMO I don’t think they had planned on anyone reporting her missing so soon.

Where would they take her? IMO I would think maybe they would go to a much more unpopulated area. Later, they might even cross the border and lay low for a while.

Maybe Nancy recognized them as someone she had crossed paths with, at one time or another, and they took her out of the house to figure out the next step, but something tells me he/they already knew what the next step would be.

Maybe part of that guy’s freaky disguise with masks and padded clothes, was to try to be unrecognizable, at least at first, to Nancy, as well as for the cameras, in case things didn’t go according to plan. No disguise will mask the coward that he is. It’s actually hard to talk about some of this because what many of us think about what was going on here, is heartbreaking.

What could have been in the backpack? That’s a good question. I think others have probably given better answers to that than I ever could, but, along with possibly extra pairs of gloves, break in tools, and who knows what, it almost looked like he had a ‘new in box,’ pair of shoes in there. IMO All of these items seen in the videos and stills, have probably been disposed of, so I’m sure LE is looking for those.

Some people thought maybe this guy could have been hiding on the property before he broke into the house. Some people mentioned that there was a rustic looking treehouse on Nancy’s property. I hope that treehouse was searched. IMO he could have been storing things there that he’d use later. Thanks for reading.

Using AI to try and see what the masked person looks like is like randomly slamming your hands on your keyboard hoping the person's name will appear.

I mean, we are all doing what we can with the limited resources we have. Maybe the person didn't know we couldn't use AI results here. There are a lot of newbies.

In all fairness, what idiot orders a pizza to a potential crime scene. IMO

A troll, JMO

Exclusive | The ‘simple tactic’ authorities missed to help catch Nancy Guthrie’s kidnappers: expert

Page Six confirmed that the balance of the Bitcoin wallet remains at $0, meaning no transaction has been recorded.

"Raviv explained that initiating an exchange of even a small amount to the address provided on the ransom note will ultimately lead to finding the crypto criminal."

I really wish these "experts" would stop saying these things in the middle of what we hope is an active recovery. At least play dumb. Just let things play out. They don't need to be talking heads in the middle of an active investigation. Let the guy or group think they will get away with it.

Also, where are people getting that only $300 was put in the account? I missed that.

I would put good money on some teenager thinking this was hilarious and doing it. The pizza guy is a victim of a prank IMO.

No, Pima Sheriff literally had to put on social media:
Pima County Sheriff's Department
@PimaSheriff
3h

We can’t believe we have to say this, but media on scene: please do not order food delivery to a crime scene address. This interferes with an active investigation. Please also respect private property laws. Thank you.

I'll try to offer some suggestions;
Small deposits are often done before depositing a huge amount to check if the adress is correct so one doesn't deposit into the wrong account, or, it could be to trace it to a crypto exchange as a crypto exchange asks for KYC.
KYC means Know Your Customer which means one has to give their personal data to be able to use it.
Sometimes it's even possible to track a notification tied to a deposit which would mean they may be able to trace it that way.
These are just a few ideas as to why a small deposit has been made.
Ofc idk the actual reason so it's just all my opinion

FWIW this is also how crypto thieves can access your main account. I have had small random deposits made into my account. I was instructed by the brokerage to absolutely not accept them.
