I have seen a couple of interviews with experts this morning, and they actually seem hopeful. The backpack is key. They believe the suspect is from Tucson, so he probably purchased it locally. They will look at everyone who purchased it and pull driver’s license info to eliminate everyone who does not fit the height and facial features. This will narrow it down a lot. Sure, there is a chance that he borrowed it, stole it, or purchased second-hand. But it seems less likely. Even if he purchased with cash, they can pull surveillance video. Somebody will recognize him from the video. I am convinced that they are already closing in.

The cops sure seem to be operating from the 1800s. Who doesn’t shop online nowadays? Good god, they’re really hoping Walmart will solve this crime?

How are they sure the backpack is brand new?

Well they aren’t shopping online with cash. So they will have credit card info for purchases made online and shipped to Tucson.

Apparently it is the latest version of the backpack so they know it was purchased fairly recently.

Also, me. I don’t like to buy everything online. I am no Olympic athlete, but I do have the energy to walk into the Wal-Mart down the road. For something like a backpack, I would prefer to check out the size, quality, storage compartments in person.

My money is on the backpack being a dead end.

If I'm going to commit a crime. I'm shoplifting everything I can fit into my overcoat, and a backpack fits that criteria. Heck, I might even be so bold as to rip the tags off the backpack and fill it with the other pilfered items I need, hello horse tranquilizers, zip ties, duct tape.

No way I'm going through the Walmart check out line, who knows how long they hang onto the recording, but no doubt that data is going to a datacenter, where it gets compiled and crushed and tied to a list of every other purchase I've made, along with my image and my purchase details, how I paid, what day I visited, what websites I like to visit, etc. Too much money in data these days to just throw it all away. Those cameras aren't about security; they are about data mining.

Any criminal who watches any true life crime shows the perp always gets busted by the footage from Home Depot cameras where they are recorded buying, some combination of 10 feet of rope, 2 boxes of zip ties, acid, lye, woodchipper, plastic gloves, masks, respirators, industrial garbage bags, a case of plastic tarps, cement, cement mixer, duct tape, and a big old ax and bleach, lots and lots of bleach.

Walmart, Home Depot, and all those other places still have you on camera shoplifting.

Well what makes you think they want to speak to the media? The general public probably knows one percent of the details of that day. This is like when people are saying, why can’t they see the evidence that BIL dropped Nancy off – obviously there is evidence, but they don’t need to put it out there. He has been cleared. Don’t you think he would be arrested if they show she was not dropped off on her home at the time they said? It’s been two weeks.

No one has been cleared and no one has been arrested.

They can’t just arrest him for not dropping her off, they need to have evidence to hold him.

That’s why it’s taking so long to identify a suspect. There is not enough evidence to support an arrest for anyone at this time.

There’s also a contaminated crime scene. It’s a mess. They will need evidence. They obviously obtained warrants to take the vehicles and search the homes.

Yeah but not if this was planned a year ago or even months ago. Footage is often taped over and there’s no proof this person was even local.

Loss prevention departments will hang on to this footage and track shoplifters. But I doubt it was shoplifted here. You know the saying - don't commit a crime while you're committing a crime.

Quick Google shows 4,600-4,800 Walmarts in the States. It seems impossible to track one black backpack down across all those stores. I mean, eBay and Poshmark both sell the same model. Poshmark has one up right now.

*Sigh*
Does the guy look like much of a traveler to you? He was clearly perplexed by the sight of a ring doorbell. He does not appear to get out much.

Yes, it is possible that he purchased it in Vermont. Or on poshmark. But it is highly likely that he purchased it in his own town. Or he purchased it online and had it delivered to an address in or near Tucson.

I haven’t heard, but they did say that the pattern shows that she was upright. So she was probably alive and did not have a major injury when she was taken.

He probably purchased it in person, in a line with a cashier, and with cash.

No video. No cc receipt.

Probably did it a few hours away.

I don't think this guy was stupid. He clearly had given some attention to his outfit and he's so far has done a very good job of keeping himself unidentified.

One even went so far as to say the bleeding was probably from the mouth or nose as the droplets had pink in the middle meaning oxygen.

Well you ended your post saying that criminals always get busted doing the exact thing that you say a criminal would never do. So which is it?

I am not convinced that this was well-planned. I think he was desperate for money and this was a Hail Mary attempt to pay his debts. He might not have even known he was a future kidnapper when he purchased the backpack and other items.

Hello, not all perps get busted, but the ones that do, on true crime shows, are often busted by buying a shovel, an industrial-sized box of zip ties, and plastic tarps, on video. Any criminal with half a brain knows by now not to buy your supplies in a big box store (cameras). But that's okay...

This isn't that difficult. A family member did it. They want their inheritance now, or maybe the initial plan was ransom money, which = serious gravy, had she survived the ordeal. But this is an 84-year-old. So, she probably stroked out in the trunk or had a massive heart attack. If that happened at this point, the body needs to be found sooner rather than later, because the only play is the inheritance. A good clean transfer of money.

People are greedy; many families are weird about money. One person has it, and someone else doesn't. Little chance her money was being willed to Guthrie, or at least that was the perps' thinking, so while she may not have been rolling in dough, she had enough to make a difference to someone. I've seen families ripped apart over much less.

The perpetrator is a very close family member who was annoyed that an 84-year-old woman was soaking up resources and wasn't dropping dead quickly enough for their liking. She was old, very, very old, past her expiration date, so maybe she was getting to be an expensive resource sucking pain in the petard, which made her expendable, so she needed to go now.

Or maybe she ran off with the pool boy and didn't want her kids interfering or ruining her fun. That would be a great ending to the story!

They are probably searching the home and cars thoroughly and repeatedly because it is a treasure trove of DNA from people who were in Nancy’s presence. They probably host lots of events that she attends. Between holiday gatherings and a graduation party, I could easily list over 100 people who were at my house at the same time as my mom in the past year. I could only list about 20 people who have been in her house in the past year. So why search the garage, you ask? Well, that is where people keep lots of items that are only brought out for events and some that aren’t typically cleaned thoroughly or at all, such as lawn games, lawn chairs, etc.

Annie and her mom might have also used the same house cleaners, landscapers, pool cleaners, etc.

P.S.
Disclaimer: I have no idea if dna stays on a lawn chair for a year, so don’t come at me. I just said a year because the grad party I threw was almost a year ago and made my list grow exponentially. I am in no way stating that Annie hosted a grad party with lawn chairs in use and the dna is still present and the perp was in attendance. I realize that there is no recent graduate in their family that we know of. There is no need to debate this.

I thought this thread would find this tweet interesting - a successful and retired suspect sketcher sketched out what she believes the suspect looks like. I don’t know how to post images of tweets here but the link is below.

Kind of looks like a Latino tom welling (smallville actor) to me.

Also, me. I don’t like to buy everything online. I am no Olympic athlete, but I do have the energy to walk into the Wal-Mart down the road. For something like a backpack, I would prefer to check out the size, quality, storage compartments in person.

My money is on the backpack being a dead end.

If I'm going to commit a crime. I'm shoplifting everything I can fit into my overcoat, and a backpack fits that criteria. Heck, I might even be so bold as to rip the tags off the backpack and fill it with the other pilfered items I need, hello horse tranquilizers, zip ties, duct tape.

No way I'm going through the Walmart check out line, who knows how long they hang onto the recording, but no doubt that data is going to a datacenter, where it gets compiled and crushed and tied to a list of every other purchase I've made, along with my image and my purchase details, how I paid, what day I visited, what websites I like to visit, etc. Too much money in data these days to just throw it all away. Those cameras aren't about security; they are about data mining.

Any criminal who watches any true life crime shows the perp always gets busted by the footage from Home Depot cameras where they are recorded buying, some combination of 10 feet of rope, 2 boxes of zip ties, acid, lye, woodchipper, plastic gloves, masks, respirators, industrial garbage bags, a case of plastic tarps, cement, cement mixer, duct tape, and a big old ax and bleach, lots and lots of bleach.

Walmart, Home Depot, and all those other places still have you on camera shoplifting.

The backpack may be second hand from a little brother or someone’s kid

It’s been 12 days. Everyone makes fun of the kidnapper for looking like an amateur, well, he seems to have done the job and not left a trace. I am so sorry this has happened and my heart goes to the Guthrie family. I will say the FBI, led by Kash Patel, is probably a disaster and bungled it.

I have seen a couple of interviews with experts this morning, and they actually seem hopeful. The backpack is key. They believe the suspect is from Tucson, so he probably purchased it locally. They will look at everyone who purchased it and pull driver’s license info to eliminate everyone who does not fit the height and facial features. This will narrow it down a lot. Sure, there is a chance that he borrowed it, stole it, or purchased second-hand. But it seems less likely. Even if he purchased with cash, they can pull surveillance video. Somebody will recognize him from the video. I am convinced that they are already closing in.

The cops sure seem to be operating from the 1800s. Who doesn’t shop online nowadays? Good god, they’re really hoping Walmart will solve this crime?

How are they sure the backpack is brand new?

Yeah but not if this was planned a year ago or even months ago. Footage is often taped over and there’s no proof this person was even local.

Loss prevention departments will hang on to this footage and track shoplifters. But I doubt it was shoplifted here. You know the saying - don't commit a crime while you're committing a crime.

Quick Google shows 4,600-4,800 Walmarts in the States. It seems impossible to track one black backpack down across all those stores. I mean, eBay and Poshmark both sell the same model. Poshmark has one up right now.

*Sigh*
Does the guy look like much of a traveler to you? He was clearly perplexed by the sight of a ring doorbell. He does not appear to get out much.

Yes, it is possible that he purchased it in Vermont. Or on poshmark. But it is highly likely that he purchased it in his own town. Or he purchased it online and had it delivered to an address in or near Tucson.

What does looking like much of a traveler mean? The guy could be any man in America. Hikers in the Shenandoah, Bank employees in DC, ransoms in the airport. Nothing about the image we’ve seen says he isn’t a traveler.
