Ex-FBI Agent Proposes Bitcoin Payment to Solve Nancy Guthrie Kidnapping Case
A former FBI agent has suggested that the family of Nancy Guthrie, who was abducted from her Tucson, Arizona home on February 1, should consider paying half of the bitcoin demanded in ransom notes to potentially uncover her whereabouts. The ransom notes, sent to TMZ, demand one bitcoin, valued at approximately $72,000, in exchange for information about the 84-year-old's abduction. The notes claim that Guthrie, the mother of 'Today' show host Savannah Guthrie, was taken to Mexico. Former FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer believes that paying half a bitcoin could provide crucial leads, as it would allow investigators to track the transaction and possibly identify the kidnappers. Despite multiple ransom notes, no suspects or new leads have emerged in the case.
