Mom, cousin Terry kidnapped us to take us to her house. My mother would feign shock, protest how terribly she would miss us, then assure us she'd drive up to retrieve us.

Another odd thing that has come to a lot of people's attention today. You can go to this thing called Google Trends, and that's how they get, you know, the word of the year for 2025 and all this stuff. You can track searches on Google Trends and someone searched for Nancy Guthrie's address and Savannah's salary days before Nancy was kidnapped. Now, this is a Google trend. This is not for fact, but Google Trends is used in a lot of instances for accurate trends on the web. So it was interesting as the pinged Google search for Nancy's address was around January 26th and 27th. She went missing the night of January 31st into February 1st. And what was even weirder about this, on Google Trends, you can select United States worldwide, view other countries. The most searches that were being pinged for Nancy Guthrie's address during that January 26, 2020 seventh era was from Algeria. That's a country in Northern Africa. That is weird. Could be a vpn, could be hiding the identity of someone's IP address, or it could be someone in Algeria. These are just things, again, that are bizarre about this. There's no indication that the search for Savannah's salary is linked to the search for Nancy Guthrie's address. But I mean, let's be real. How often you can go back on the trends and see that Nancy Guthrie's address was never searched. Like, no one's out there just searching. I mean, people are searching about the Winter Olympics right now. That's the number one Google trend, just to show you what it does. But it's just very weird that couple days before she went missing, there were searches for that. The reason that this all is just kind of just sticking in my brain at this point in the investigation is because for a long time, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nantos wouldn't say if he thought Nancy was targeted or not whether this was random or targeted. And that's important to know, obviously. But today Nano's told a news outlet that Nancy had a target for whatever reason. So now we're saying that Nancy was targeted. It goes back to Sheriff Chris Nanos doing individual interviews with different media outlets, mostly local to Tucson. But this is why I'm team press conference, because there's just so many new developments and things that you need clarification on that's just not being put out there. So did someone stalk Savannah? I mean, again, the Today show is known for this family atmosphere. They share their family life, they share their kids, their spouses. Savannah took all of America back to Tucson back in November and showed us all around the desert, the zoo, her college campus at University of Arizona, her mom at these restaurants. So was. Is there someone like whoever is responsible? Were they stalking Savannah? Did they put the dots together that Nancy was alone in Arizona? Because it's well known that. Or not well known maybe. But if you follow the Today show, you know that Nancy raised the Guthrie siblings as a single mother, that Savannah's dad died young. It's just so scary to think about and just so horrible. So horrible that an 84 year old woman was targeted in all this. Again, no public lead so far, but TMZ is saying, plus other outlets that now this search has gone international and FBI has contacted Mexican authorities. And the thought behind this is that they don't think necessarily that this was some type of cartel involved operation, but there is a chance that in the days after the kidnapping that Nancy was taken across the border to Mexico. FBI says, you know, it's normal to work with Mexican authorities given Tucson's proximity to the border. But again, this is the first that we're hearing that this is being done on day 18. Okay. And I know that every time you hear the word ransom note, you're just probably thinking, what the heck? But hear me out here. TMZ said today they got another ransom note. Now everyone is like, what Harvey levin just said 12 hours ago. He was done saying they got notes. Guys, this is another ransom note. We have to separate the ransom notes from the emails about I know who the kidnapper is. They are being treated at this time as two separate things. So, yeah, Harvey said to Sean Hannity Tuesday night, we're done sharing. If we get any more emails from this person that claims to know the kidnapper is. Because if we keep saying every time we're contacted and then all of a sudden we stop saying that we've been contacted, that could tip off the kidnapper that now someone snitched on him. That's smart. But he didn't say he was not going to stop saying that. They've been given ransom notes, and there's a difference. Ransom note. There is a ransom involved. And that's the note that TMZ got today. Another ransom note. And Harvey Levin said this ransom was around the $6 million mark of the first note. But this one was requested with a different type of cryptocurrency, not bitcoin. And there was a different crypto account linked to this note than the original. Remember, the originals had the same bitcoin address. This one has a different cryptocurrency address. So FBI, of course, they're looking into it. And again, we're not giving any credibility to these ransom notes because there has been no proof of life. Authorities have said they don't know if there's been any more communication with the family and this person directly. And we frankly haven't seen the Guthrie family address this person behind the ransom note since they said that they would pay the ransom more than a week ago. And one thing that was stressed in this ransom note is the author graphically described the consequences and if that ransom wasn't met. But FBI has to look into it because at this point in the case, that's where we are. So another award was given out. We can tell you that the check has been sent to Tucson. A attorney out of Milwaukee took it upon himself to give $100,000 to Crime Stoppers of Tucson to try to figure out what happened to Nancy Guthrie. We tracked down Michael Hoope, and he's the guy that did this. And let me tell you, this is not what he does every day. Like, let's find these cases and let's go help out these local Crime Stoppers organizations. Something about this case really stuck out to him.

D (11:00)

This case stuck out to me because of the age of the person, the need for medical treatment, the pacemaker, and how important time was. Time still is important. And no one came forward and pushed Crime Stoppers. So I said, I better do it. I've heard no mention of Crime Stoppers coming from Tucson. So I said, I better do something.

C (11:23)

And I've worked the Crime Stoppers for years, but this was new information to me. I've never gone that far to be like, how does this actually work? We know the tips are anonymous, but how do they promise that they remain anonymous and that no one knows who the person tipping off investigators are? Well, Mr. Michael Hoope explained that well, it's anonymous.

D (11:48)

When you call, we don't take your phone number. We don't take your name. We don't take any information about you. We just take the information you give us. If that results in an arrest, you get a reward. We still don't take your name, any information about you. You go to an undisclosed location, give them your number, your code number, and you get the reward. And I don't know of an instance where this has not worked, where anyone's been betrayed by the system.

C (12:19)

So just for clarity, Crime Stoppers in Tucson is called 88 crime. So today, Pima county did confirm that 88 crime did get that $100,000 reward sent from Wisconsin. It may not seem like it, but things are happening in this case. And you could even argue things are heating up in this case as the DNA is continued to be investigated as well as the multitude of leads that Pima county sheriff and the FBI in regards to the DNA testing that goes down the genealogy trail. An expert said that it could take anywhere. If the person has roots that go back in the United States, it could take anywhere from hours to a few weeks, not years, as it does in some cases. So just know that all that work is being done behind the scenes as authorities are working to find Nancy Guthrie. Tip line for the FBI. 1-800- call FBI. And again, there's that Crime Stoppers reward, too. I'm Lyndon Blake, and this is finding Nancy Guthrie. A daily wire true crime investigation.
