Overview
- Two new notes sent to TMZ on Monday from a repeat sender made clashing claims about Nancy Guthrie’s fate and sought one bitcoin for information.
- Investigators say the case remains active with Pima County detectives working alongside the FBI, and no arrests or named suspects have been announced.
- The FBI has not authenticated any ransom communications, and officials note such messages are often scams, citing a prior federal case against a man accused of sending fake demands.
- Public pressure on Sheriff Chris Nanos has escalated as the Pima County Board of Supervisors demanded a sworn report on his conduct and cooperation with federal agencies.
- The family is offering a $1 million reward, with total posted rewards exceeding $1.2 million, and former agents note a real source would likely pursue that verified payout rather than quick bitcoin.
