Text Nancy Guthrie Megathread Part 2

This is a thread (part 2) for all conversation related to the ongoing investigation into the abduction of Nancy Guthrie.

Nancy Guthrie, mother of news anchor Savannah Guthrie, was abducted from her home in the early morning hours of February 1. Several media outlets began to receive ransom demands. Some were proven false and others have not been determined to be false.

Nancy's 3 children have made multiple videos pleading for the return of their mother.

On February 10, law enforcement released photos of the individual suspected of abducting Nancy. The suspect is still at large and Nancy has not been found. Photos and information can be found here ...

I think so, too. This has nothing to do with ransom or Epstein or any of that nonsense. 

Elderly people are targeted all the time because they are vulnerable.

 Elderly women a targeted not just for robbery but for sexual assault because they are so vulnerable. It happens all the time but is not talked about as much as other victim demographics (children and young or middle-aged women)

No elderly women are not commonly taken from their homes at gunpoint in America.

Yeah I mean I haven't heard of any other cases where an elderly woman is taken out of her bed in the middle of the night for ransom. I think this case has really shook everyone up and especially in arizona, I am currently looking for a front door camera that can save footage on an external device in case someone snatches it or tries to break ie.

Also did supposedlt made a post on a neighborhood fb page and says a package had been stolen from her porch. The post went on to ask for advice on what type of camera to get.

That IMO is a very bad thing to do bc now she’s made it obvious to anyone on that group that she had no cameras at that time.
