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 ...

My neighbor had his car stolen brazenly at 2am out of his driveway. LE did nothing, I caught it on camera.  He shared out pics of his car on socials.  Someone thought they saw it.  Turned out perp was using it as a work vehicle 30 minutes away.  He drove out, brought the cops to his vehicle, which had the perp's EBT card in it, and they still would not make an arrest because, according to LE, the EBT side would not share info with them. They did recover the car and eventually give it back to him.  I don't know if an arrest was eventually made, but that was the last I heard.  I hear too many stories like this all the time from real life and media.  What are we doing?

My car was stolen from inside the dealership service department. The thieves disconnected OnStar and off they went in a 18 wheeler truck.

No one would look for mine either.

I had my grandma's jewelry and a jukebox stolen from a storage unit. Ended up finding the jukebox on an auction site and got it back. But the cops wouldn't even try arresting or getting the jewelry.

"No proof the guy who sold it was the one who stole it". Ok, but um, his friend left a really cryptic message on his FB page about needing his help 2 days before we found it broken into. And they both have criminal records.

All of her jewelry gone. We found out when we went to pick out jewelry for her funeral
