🇺🇸 - Nancy Guthrie was abducted on February 1st at around 2-2:30am PST. Furthermore, her pacemaker app showed that she had been separated from her phone at 2:28am, when motion was detected both inside and outside her home. Additionally, blood stains identified as Guthrie’s were found at the scene.

Afterwards, unverified ransom notes were received by TMZ and the Tucson CNN affiliate, KOLD News. Last week, a ransom of $6 million was set to be transferred to an unidentifiable Bitcoin wallet. The Guthries released a statement saying they were prepared to pay the ransom.

Notably, Nancy Guthrie requires daily medication for a health condition, which, most likely, she has not received since her abduction.

The local and federal authorities have been stonewalled in the investigation, with the latter not contributing much to the success, thus continuing a trend of incompetence under FBI Director Kash Patel.
