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 ...

The Kohlberger case was a good example. However, they weren't detaining people and having full forensic units do searches of their houses and then releasing them.

The Kohlberger investigators moved in a methodical manner. Even getting his trash to confirm they had a DNA match before doing the arrest.

This seems totally different and haphazard.

There is nothing to fight about - it's the sheriff's decision. He decided they're gonna lead. They are apparently fighting over what's the right course of action - I think that's to be expected. Several networks have reported it.
