Nancy Guthrie update: Expert flags ‘a lot of things wrong’ with ransom note, points to new ‘burglary’ theory
More than six months after Nancy Guthrie went missing, a forensic psychologist says he doesn't believe the alleged ransom notes are real.
Nancy Guthrie, the mother of NBC news anchor Savannah Guthrie, disappeared from her Arizona home on January 31. Six months later, questions remain about ransom notes presented in the case. Forensic psychologist Dr. Kris Mohandie has raised doubts about the authenticity of the letters. He stated that while he believes investigators were justified in releasing the notes for further investigation, he doesn't consider them genuine.
Mohandie pointed out that the first letter's mention of details like Nancy's Apple Watch and a broken floodlight on her property does not prove its legitimacy, as such information could have been readily available. He also noted inconsistencies in the second letter, which claimed Nancy had "perished" days after the alleged kidnapping, and the switch between pronouns "we" and "I."
Mohandie believes the most crucial piece of evidence is surveillance footage showing a masked suspect on the front porch of Nancy's home. He speculates that the case might involve a burglary that went wrong, with attempts to cover up the crime.
