Brian was just on News Nation. He said he will not disclose his location regarding SWAT.

Show BE has a lot of integrity. Impressed with his interviews, too. JMO

It says this:

Frank Figliuzzi, a former FBI assistant director, said officials likely already ruled out that the DNA belonged to Guthrie’s family members or others who were in the house for other reasons. It also did not pull any matches with known offenders in the FBI’s database, he said.

Thanks, missed that.

The letters are proven to be written by the perps. Mostly, with few somewhat unlikely exceptions. I really cannot decide if their ransom attempts were purposefully impossible or they were just clueless on how it should work. Crazy as it is, there's always a price negotiation. However, there's also POL. Idk....this case is wild!

If not ransom and a financial motive, that leaves somebody wanting NG dead. But why? The entire crime feels very personal. It feels like an attack on somebody other than NG. But, it could be anybody or anything. People can stew on perceived wrongs, jealousy, and delights forever and then unexpectedly exact revenge.

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

Could the current SWAT mission be related to this? Real question - is it unrelated or too quick for DNA processing? The post is from about 30 minutes ago.

After Carlos, they aren't making a media circus out of detaining a POI. Keeping it on the down low, due to backlash if it goes nowhere. JMO

Has anything of note happened today? There’s like 100 pages added to this thread from when I looked last night (UK Time)

Looks like there might be movement towards a possible person of interest ?
Or might turn out to be another nothing-burger.
Am trying to catch up with past pages ...
Imo.

Harvey levin on TV saying they received a new email from the kidnapper today. A lot of interesting stuff in the correspondence.
Check TV to see if you are interested.

A different person now saying TMZ should not be airing all of these email demands. Just inviting more and more people to send in unrelated emails.

Good catch! Not sure, though. Do they obtain it for burglary?

All felonies.

13-610 - DNA testing

It says “Investigators are working to identify who it belongs to,”

I don't read that as a definitive it's not in database. We'll see.

There's also

From the same link. The writing is declarative, but I think it's just some "expert" speculating on how these things typically go.

I don't think LE has publicly stated that the DNA hasn't matched in a database, and I don't think they would even if it were the case.

Interesting, but if it was staged, how would the guy know that google could reproduce it after the camera had been removed?

Yeah, I would argue that was a surprise to most folks.

K9 Handlers also like tooth brushes for scent articles. IMO

Thanks for the info. That is very interesting. I didn’t know that.

It was referenced to whether kidnapping was for primary sexual assault. A different behavioral pattern. But I remain open to it. It has not been ruled out.

Ted Bundy charmed two women out of a public park in one afternoon, separately. His primary motive was sexual assault.

If it did, I'd think they would immediate surveil the person and then try to find any accomplices, get all the warrants, line up an airtight case, and then swoop in. They would not tell us it matched until an arrest was announced. Also, not to scare the suspect out of the area.

They wouldn't say it even if there was a match. The next question would be, "Who?" They aren't ready for that question. IMO

It seems several of the live streamer are frozen near location of SWAT.

I was going to say, I'm done listening to sources, experts and what's likely happened. Unless it's directly spoken by the Sheriff or FBI, it's all white noise. So much misinformation has been stated as fact due to media reporting irresponsibly. I imagine any info about that DNA is going to be kept quiet until there's an arrest.

Bandmate has the same initials

This makes prefect sense. They collected the bracket for the ring doorbell yesterday. Got results back this AM, gave it to a genetic genealogist and they worked fast to identify the person. Must have family that submitted DNA. Easily tracked.
