They’re running out of material. I’m waiting for one of the cable news shows to start interviewing the psychics and tarot card readers making videos on YouTube about this case - yes, they do exist.

I'd be interested in what they thought. Wonder if LE use them or was that just a TV show?

Did the perp remove the camera to buy time for breaking in before Nancy saw him on her phone alerts and made a call for help, or to erase footage for investigation purposes? If the latter, did he not know the footage is normally recoverable, or did he somehow know Nancy didn't have a subscription?

I wouldn't be surprised if he works with his hands, or does boxing, just something about the way he moves them IMO, and have been having the same thought as someone above, about the mouth flashlight being something he's used in his work. Like an electrician, plumber or mechanic.

Just a guess, but probably because she loved her house and community. She’s been there for like over 50 years, and maybe it’s not true that she felt unsafe. I thought I did read that she felt safe, in fact. Yes, found it:

“When asked if Nancy had ever expressed having any fear of being alone or kidnapped, Blevins said, “No, never.” When asked if she ever spoke about having security concerns, Blevins said, “No, not at all.” (LINK)

She was active with her circle of friends in a book club, and was in a mahjong group. She picked up her grandson from school and watched him sometimes.
She had health issues but was cognitively sound.

Thanks for the response. I was thinking about this...

"If NG had an incident of someone at her door scaring her,..."

I know it's Monday morning quarterbacking
Everything is clearer in the rearview mirror
Hindsight is 20/20

But it happened and it's real and it can't be undone.
Praying for a positive outcome.

Why kidnap Nancy for ransom when you don't even try to contact the victim's family? If money was their goal, they failed so now what? But why? It clearly wasn't for money.

A message to someone???...to scare someone??? (not Nancy).

Going off what we know, it seems personal. I do believe that man went there to kidnap Nancy and I think he wasn't alone.

Sheriff also called in homicide after seeing crime scene. Would love to get more info on what the house looked like inside when first responders post 911 call arrived at NG house.

We all would.

My feelings are they are keeping it close to the vest to see if it matched the info from the ransom note.

They are probably are also waiting for DNA testing to return.

In a recent discussion, Greg Gutfeld proposed an intriguing strategy regarding the ongoing mystery surrounding Savannah Guthrie. Gutfeld, a co-host known for his sharp insights, suggested that Guthrie, perceived as the least likely suspect, should voluntarily undergo a polygraph test

This suggestion aims to create pressure on other individuals associated with the case. By having Guthrie take the polygraph, it could prompt others to follow suit. Gutfeld believes that no one should be ruled out at this stage, and the willingness or reluctance to participate in the test might reveal more about the individuals involved.

Expert Opinions on Polygraph Testing​

Paul Mauro, a guest on the show, chimed in on Gutfeld’s idea. He noted that, as of now, there has been no known application of polygraph tests in this case. While Mauro expressed uncertainty about the progression of the investigation, he acknowledged that the results of polygraph tests are typically not admissible in court.

• Gutfeld’s Main Argument: Initiating a polygraph test for Guthrie could help uncover the truth.
• Impact of the Test: Reluctance to participate may indicate something unusual.
• Legal Considerations: Polygraph results are not used as evidence in court but can serve as investigative pointers.

Gutfield is vile for this.

I already disliked him but this is too much.

My question is why didn't she move?

Neighborhoods change as time passes and if this one became less safe why stay there?

No. I'm not trying to guilt trip the family. I'm just asking why?

I don't think it's an unsafe neighborhood at all, in fact, it looks a beautiful and tranquil place to live.

She's loved there for over 50 years. That house has memories, and she probably doesn't envisage ever living anywhere else.

Older people don't like change, and why should she have to move, he daughter is a short ride away, she has friends locally too, her social life, everything she has ever known and loved, and still does.

She got the cameras in order to watch wildlife. It's here on Websleuths.

Nancy Guthrie once asked about ‘best’ outdoor cameras for ‘activity at night’ in social media post

Nancy Guthrie sought help from other people on Nextdoor, a hyperlocal social networking site designed to connect neighbors.

I remember watching those bbq competitions on tv, and a lot of those competitors had gloves that reminded me of the masked porch man.
Seems they’re nitrile with cotton liners, for the bbq cooks.

I don’t have black ones, but we always have a big box of disposable latex or nitrile gloves at my house. We use them for all kinds of uses (handling meats, while cleaning, etc). It may be common to have in many homes. jmo

Someone earlier said they look like butyl gloves, not nitrile

 

[Scooby-Doo]

Both Nancy's and Annie's place should be saturated with sniffer dogs.

I am not seeing this

Now a pair of gloves has been found

This is when they need the sniffer dogs to go right through there
