You are more charitable than me. I saw the comments as a mirror into the soul of the person who made them. The only thoughts he has is about himself. How dare he say he is exhausted,what about all the officers working for hours in the heat What about Nancy's family. I bet they haven't slept much .He did not look exhausted at the game he had time to attend.
How very unaware can someone be to say a missing 84 year old woman might not be found for months or years. Even if that could be the case, how absolutely callous to say that in public. Where is the hope and strength and message that he and his officers are doing everything they can do to bring Nancy back to her family as soon as they can.

This infuriates me!

IF he is so darn exhausted---then let the FBI take the lead---stop trying to be the savior your not!

Months and years---maybe--because he didn't turn it over to the FEDS!!!

What a dis-service to this family---what a dis-service to NG.

I imagine the children do not want their mom to come home to an algae filled pool full of bugs. They're caring for her haven in her absence. IMO

Agreed. Also, this is their childhood home. I believe NG and her husband bought it in 1975.

Here's a link. Not sure about this site but the information is here:
Savannah was born in Melbourne, Australia, in 1971, where she was raised for the first four years of her life. The family moved back to the State in 1975 and purchased their five-bedroom, 4.5-bath Tucson home for $85,000 at the time.

Savannah Guthrie's missing mother, Nancy, lived in her Tucson, Arizona, residence for over 50 years and raised her children there – see pictures.

My main query......what is this distracting us from? It seems like a 3 ring circus. Why the top priority when millions of missing with a tiny fraction, if even that, of coverage. What is the TRUTH??

 

[stmichael]

If the FBI helped author the INSTAGRAM pleas as many have suggested, why oh why, did SG say "we will pay" then not pay? What was the point in doing that? That would only enrage a narcissistic, attention , perp, IMO. That was all not just confusing but frankly disappointing. Saying you are going to pay then not doing that is another misstep. IMO People are highly underestimating this perp. MOO

SG also qualified the "we will pay" strongly with a request for "proof of life" even specifying we live in a time where videos and audio can easily be faked, etc. doesn't appear they ever got that and it dead-ended.

remember the initial ransom was based on some very thin "evidence" linking to the scene IMO, the location of an apple watch and which spotlight was broken?? someone could have theoretically hacked a police report etc. There was no distinguishing calling card left or something more typical. Many experts still can in the veracity of this supposed ransom note email

Click on the link. You will see a small white square in the middle of the page. Click on the x in the upper right corner of the white square. You should be able to read the post

Assuming the abductor and ransom writer are the same person.
What type of criminal has communicated with LE or media? I assume it is rare but idk.

So, I've had thoughts about this. Most people commentating on the case... broadcasts etc are 40+ in age...I'm being liberal with low age, most are 50s, 60s especially former LE. They all say it doesn't make sense that it's a kidnap for ransom... kidnappers don't put demands forward this way. Sure... they didn't do things this way.

How often do we say "well, back in the day... "

If these are much younger perps, think mid20s - almost all comms are via social media, texts etc. - the even younger ones don't even know how to talk on a phone fgs!

Anyway, what I'm saying is... if this is a younger lil gang of 3, say... perhaps sending demands, anon via Media, was just normal thinking for them. Same theory asking for crypto... stark difference from asking for a bag of unmarked notes left in trash can beside park bench.

Young gens just do things differently...

 

[Derdew]

ANYONE else find it strange that there are no organized searches? One lady who volunteers anywhere they are searching for missing people including bodies can't believe there is nothing organized. I don't get it. Also I think LE does owe at least a press conf. every few days with update on things. I have never seen a crime like this with no press conferences.

Extremely odd. I can’t for the life of me understand this. I once knew of a gentlemen who went missing and thank god for community search or his body may never have been found.

For those asking about the scene involving a Range Rover, according to the Sheriff, there was no shooting or suicide involved in last night’s operations, as had been claimed by some.Says a traffic stop was made on a person of interest. The individual was cooperative and later released. On the number of people detained... he says anyone at the residence was technically "detained" since it is standard procedure to give investigators serving a warrant the freedom to conduct their search. He wasn't at scene and doesn't know exact number. But he does say no sign of Nancy was found at the residence. We’re of course still waiting for the FBI’s statement.

 

[acutename]

That’s just weird. Who thinks of getting their pool cleaned in the midst of a horrific crime at the location of the crime scene? I’m thinking something else was going on with this.

possibly they think something that could be evidence went into the filter system

 

[warp3dwing]

I think I have concluded in my mind that the original plan was to try a kidnapping for money, but she died before they could get proof of life and the money. At this point, all we can do is trust that the Police have the resources they need to find out who committed the crime.

Sounds like a tragic but likely scenario. Terrifying these monsters live among us.

I think they’ll get him - or them - sooner rather than later.

If you don't have an account insert "cancel" after the X in the url. This works for any twitter link.

To me it seems this has been going on for over a month instead of 2 weeks. Can't imagine how NG's family feels. Waking up every morning hoping this is the day!

I know it was a typo

Monday, February 2.

It was the next day.

Yes. I was trying to make just one point and flubbed it. Thanks

Also, I'm not sure there were any instructions about how to pay

Did they turn the house back over the family? They would essentially be allowing strangers to wander all over a crime scene. Hopefully, LE has what they need by now.

If you copy and paste the link, then add “cancel” after the x it will redirect you so you can see it without a log in.

They turned the house over quite a while ago.
