Nancy Guthrie was supposed to go to a friend’s house to watch a church service the day she was reported missing: source
Nancy Guthrie was supposed to go to a friend’s house where she and her friends were going to perform at an online service the day she was reported missing, a source close to the family has since said.
The source’s claim strongly challenges the story that Nancy, 84, was reported missing after not showing up at a Tucson church on February 1, as reported by Fox News.
They say that Nancy was part of a group of worshipers who met at their friend’s home and sang the services broadcast in the church in New York, which is reported to be attended by the star of ‘Namuhla’ Savannah.
Team culture stems from the Covid pandemic.
Also, a friend called Annie – Nancy’s other daughter – when the Guthrie matriarch failed to arrive.
There has been no sign of Nancy, 84, since she was reported missing from her million-dollar home in the Catalina Foothills, and the search is now in its tenth day.
On Monday night, a second ransom demand said to be $6 million in Bitcoin at 5 pm local time (7 pm ET) expired without payment.
A second deadline expired after Thursday’s $4 million ransom demand was not met.
TMZ founder Harvey Levin said a memo sent to his network and two Arizona news outlets contained what he described as a strong message about the results.
“That’s all I’m going to say,” he told CNN late Monday.
“But it’s amazing when you read that sentence. It’s short and to the point.”
He said the paper also contained a line that said: “It is in everyone’s interest that this be completed as soon as possible.”
The letter said the police would not be able to help, and said Nancy would be returned within 12 hours of payment, according to Levin.
The FBI said it knew of no connection between the Guthrie family and the suspects in Nancy’s kidnapping.
Savannah issued a heartfelt plea on social media last night, saying she believed her mother – who has mobility issues and is in poor health – was still out.
“We believe that our mother is still out.
“I’m just coming to ask not only for your prayers, but no matter where you are – even if you’re far from Tucson – if you see something, if you hear something, if there’s anything that seems strange to you, to report it to law enforcement. We need your help.”
Jonny Grusing, a former FBI agent, told Fox News Digital Savannah that the heartfelt plea could be a sign that the chances of finding Nancy alive are diminishing.
“The numbers don’t look good at the moment [Nancy] I did well, so I think that is another request to the public, where we have someone who may still be with us, and who is not in a good situation right now, and we need your information right away,” he said.
Police in Pima County, Arizona, fearing Nancy was abducted after she disappeared for hours after returning from a family dinner on Jan. 31 – but Chris Swecker, former Assistant Director of the FBI, is skeptical of this idea.
“If this was a kidnapping, it would be a very easy thing to authenticate and provide proof of life,” he told Fox News’ “The Big Weekend Show” that aired Sunday.
Police have confirmed they are expanding the search and following new leads. No suspects or persons of interest have been identified.
Additional FBI agents from across the US will be sent to Tucson, according to the office.
A $50,000 reward for information leading to the discovery of Nancy, or the arrest of the suspect is still being offered.
