It's not serial. It's targeted. It is a male, delusional, lovesick, celebrity stalker of SG. He watches her daily. he thinks everything she says has a hidden meaning between the 2 of them that is cementing the fact that she loves him too. He hungrily scans all media, looking for mention of SG's name..THUS the TMZ (entertainment based outfit). That's why the TMZ ransom emails. He probably has a little area in his home dedicated to her..A poster, some magazines etc. He maybe is emotionally docile. A deep-thinking, loner and suffering from lack of self esteem and unable to have a real life encounter with a woman in his peer group. Possibly lives with his MOM and deeply enmeshed with her. He has been suppressing his fixation on SG for sometime and can no longer do so. He's an SG stalker. That's been my opinion from the first day and I am sticking to it! JMO..MOO

… if he was not noticed by SG, he lives in her mind now … that may be all he wanted ... but at what point does that change to "here am I" ... driving the point home?

Sheriff Chris Nanos tells me the DNA profile from the gloves found 2 miles away from Nancy Guthrie’s home did not register a hit in the CODIS system

I’m not surprised

Law enforcement is working with a device known as a “signal sniffer” that uses an amplifier to find Bluetooth signals and identify the unique MAC [Media Access Control] address of Guthrie’s pacemaker using a directional antenna.

“It’s got software running in it, continuously scans, and if it doesn’t recognize (hers), it just eliminates it until it locks onto the right one,” said Morgan Wright, CEO and founder of the National Center for Open and Unsolved Cases.

Wright, who also analyzes true crime cases on Substack, said the process is similar to walking around with Guthrie’s cellphone and waiting for a Bluetooth connection request but on a much larger scale

FBI using ‘signal sniffer’ technology to search for Nancy Guthrie’s pacemaker

The FBI's use of new technology could be a turning point in narrowing down the timeline of Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance and where she might be now.

How long have they been doing this? I wish this had just been done on day 1 or 2. Way too much time has passed - imo.

 

[Lebowski]

assuming they have enough material, how long does it take to get an SNP profile?

 

[Assassino]

Since they didn't get a hit in CODIS and if it doesn't match any of their POIs then I don't know what choice they have other than using genealogy. Especially since they have hope she could still be alive and they are kind of on the clock. It would definitely be atypical to use it in a case like this though, and it's not exactly a fast process, but might as well get it started while they work other leads.

We don't know that she hasn't paid it, do we?

I think that that TMZ has the account number that they are asking the bitcoin to be deposited into and they can see that there has been no money deposited.

I’m confused by this. Was it the handler’s shirt left behind….or was it a shirt he was using for scent? If it was a shirt used for scent, where was it found?

My first impression was that it was one of NG's shirts used by the K9 tracker for tracking her scent, then just tossed back on the rocks when the K9 had...scented it (I obviously don't know the terminology).

Well shoot, that would have been too easy I suppose.

 

[Moonchime]

Has law enforcement directly addressed the possible risk of the kidnapper harming NG to stop the
pacemaker signal? I wonder why they made the public disclosure of the "signal sniffer"?

Most likely, LE knows that NG is no longer alive. I believe they're using the "signal Sniffer" to locate her body. MOO

I’m not surprised

Of course not.
Thanks for the update.

 

[DizzyB]

I’m not surprised

Are you surprised that it was revealed to the general public so quickly, that there was no CODIS match?

 

[submarine7]

Ok I think I see what you are seeing. Could this be the “day” we get answers. Just MHO

No bond listed is telling. I think maybe putting the pressure on this one while getting ducks in a row. Unfortunately, it doesn't mean Nancy is found or safe.

I'm so confused.

Glove in Nancy Guthrie Kidnapping Case Re-Tested in Arizona, No DNA Hit

The glove authorities found 2 miles from Nancy Guthrie's home has been DNA tested in Florida, but there's still another step before the DNA profile can be entered in the CODIS system ... sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ.

www.tmz.com

"Under federal law, the FBI cannot use the CODIS system unless the item in question is tested in the state where it was found -- in this case, Arizona. Our sources say the glove has already been sent back to Arizona. As for why the Pima County Sheriff decided to send the glove to Florida in the first place, knowing the glove would have to be re-tested in Arizona ... our sources have no idea."

Old people always get up during the night to use the bathroom. They also sleep odd hours, sometimes just get up during the night for a bit. She could have encountered the burglar, attempted to react, fell, unconscious or traumatic brain injury. The force that causes a concussion can frequently lead to a nosebleed, which could explain blood found. Lots of ideas. Agree a body would be soon dumped.

I don’t like the generalizations about “old people.” Not all older people “always” get up at night to use the bathroom, nor do all older people sleep odd hours.

Some younger people sleep odd hours, or get up at night to use the restroom.

Generalizations that say “all” are never accurate and tend to be demeaning.

Well shoot, that would have been too easy I suppose.

I wonder the protocol to utilize genealogical dna from ancestry, 23andMe, etc?!

I was waking in the night and getting up to use the restroom 5+ x in my 20s

 

[RatFace]

They also said on live Foxnews broadcast that the glove dna did not match the dna found inside the house. It sounds even more likely the glove is not related.

I'm confused about what is being discussed here re: Pima County, bond, and could today be the day. What have I missed?
