Not one hug to console her crying sister? This video message is very bizarre. The body language of the sister and brother is very interesting

Savannah and her sister were holding hands the whole time.

You people and your made up sibling rivalry / jealousy are ridiculous.

It’s a tactic. Akin to keep your friends close but your enemies closer. It’s a tactic to make sure she feels openly connected to her celebrity sister. To feel that her sister still trusts her. It will allow her to open up. The statement was written for them. The positioning was planned as well.

She looked like she didn’t want to be there and she kept taking heavy breaths. In a pap photo with her husband driving, she covered her face. She does not want to be identified. You would think she’d have a message for the “kidnappers” and want to plea for her mother’s safe return. Only Savannah seemed to be buying the kidnapper story in that footage.

None of them looked like they wanted to be there pleading for the return of their mother.

+1. This is day 5 right? They're probably barely sleeping and breaking down with stress. I wouldn't expect there to be a "normal" way to appear in a video like this one. This whole situation is so awful.

You don’t understand how money and elder care can rip families apart. The siblings should’ve been paid by Savannah if they had to buy an expensive home to play babysitter to her mother.

I’m sorry, please enlighten on how you know the ins and outs of the Guthrie families financial arrangements.

I don’t but I know what a teacher salary is in Tucson and it isn’t enough to afford a 700k home.

Also, this report stated the camera was disconnected from Nancy’s home shortly before her disappearance.

That sounds like someone who knew the home well and where the cameras were disconnected it

This is a middle age couple, though (not a pair of 23 year olds). This was likely not their first house. Perhaps they brought some equity from sale of a previous home, received legitimate down payment help from family (hers OR his) or a modest inheritance from extended family (hers OR his). No one has ever mentioned his family at all. Maybe they had been saving or made a bit of $ on a side gig. Who knows. At their age, I actually don’t find this transaction all that unusual.

People in this thread are so nutso. My English teacher in Tucson had a house on the same neighborhood as Gary Shandling and I think Linda McCartney — he spent his summers rehabbing his house to flip it every couple of years. He was a great teacher too! People have all sorts of arrangements and I think it’s awful how people on here are maligning a bereaved family to funsies.

I doubt the family is calling any of the shots. They didn't write that statement, they didn't come up with the reward number. I would assume the FBI is scripting all of this and that they are cooperating.

Totally agree with this. That video sounded very scripted to me, with very particular points made. And everyone had their part to play and say. And they did.

But why is this video happening 4 days later? If it was kidnapping for ransom, wouldn't they demand the money immediately....and wouldn't they engage immediately? This video makes it sound like they didn't believe it was ransom kidnapping until today...

I'm thinking someone contacted them with the mother speaking. This may be why the police suspect she is alive. The problem is you don't know if it's AI. My uncle was a victim of an AI scammer who used the voice of his granddaughter that they got the public video of the funeral of his wife. The grand-daughter spoke at the funeral and it was just enough for criminals to be able to do AI manipulation with her voice. You can do AI videos of people too. I strongly suspect someone sent them what seemed like proof of life and that is why it's going in this direction.

I think they may even know who it is and it's not the BIL. This is just my crazy thinking. I think the BIL is willingly being used as a diversion, so the real person doesn't think they are onto him/her. Look at all the Karens who were like yeah...with that long beard and thick eyebrows, I knew it was him! If you are carefully tracking a suspect and trying to get a hostage out alive, you don't tell the public that because the person may do something rash. I suspect this is either someone who knows someone who works for them regularly or a contractor who figured out her connection to someone rich and famous.

I was wondering if there is anyone who worked for her who had a key- like a contractor or cleaner. Maybe a family member of one of those people stole the key and did this. You would have to be absolutely nuts or in the throes of addiction to carry out something so crazy. I really hope it's not the BIL.

Savannah is worth all that money and she doesn’t want to add more to the reward for her mom despite her despair in her video message. It’s the minutiae that tells you how a person is with money and may possibly have been with family

The one I saw today said 50k.

Of course they don’t want to be there you idiot!

Yeah, the guy holding the press conference kept saying "the family calls the shots with what to say and how to respond." He did not say that they strongly advise them what to say and do, which they obviously should be advising the family about as this is their literal job.

These things are HEAVILY orchestrated PR shows. And of course everyone in the family looked like they didn't want to be there: they don't want to be there! I bet most of them are on lots of tranquilizers or drugs (I would be), which will make anyone behave in a way that isn't 100% like their natural self, not to mention the stress of your mother being missing would also affect your demeanor.

Some of you need to step away from WebSleuths or whatever and get back to clipping coupons. FFS.

One thing about Tucson — no one has basements and you can’t just dig a sballlw grave unless you have serious equipment. And there’s no bodies of water to throw a body into. So very different from out east.

I’m really surprised they haven’t found any leads from the cameras at the intersections. Suggests either someone in neighborhood or someone smart enough to avoid the intersections — I’m not sure how easy that is to do in that part of town.

I am the pp. Obviously. My point was, everything that was said was carefully crafted. People have asked why the brother didn't speak, yadda yadda. My point was nothing was unintentional. Obviously they were reading from a script. Keep up.

Apparently Nancy had posted on Nextdoor recently, asking about what camera (Ring etc) to get so that she could watch the wildlife. Someone posted a screenshot somewhere. Too lazy to go looking for it, but I’m sure it is out there if anyone is interested.

My guess it was just for wildlife footage and she didn’t really follow up with all of the rest. She’d lived there a long time and probably was not particularly concerned with security.

That tiny camera would not have been for wildlife. Doorbell cameras notoriously distort the view even up close. I’m guessing she was looking to install wildlife cameras.

My mom in Tucson uses her front door ring for wildlife viewing all the time. It was a little bit of a problem because her alarm was gojng off in the middle of night alerting her to someone at the door but it was just a coyote or javelina pr bobcat sniffing around the front entry. But people also get them to watch the hummingbirds — Nancy had a big property so I bet she got lots of birds and also lots of javelinas rooting for the stuff that falls off the trees. My mom primarily uses her ring to know whether it is one of us at the door or just a delivery person or animal — she’s not worried about law enforcement purposes so I think would not be super concerned about a long term backup, except she likes to check and see who is eating her flowers.

I'm in Arizona, but up in the Phoenix area, in a suburban area probably a lot like the Catalina Foothills, in that the houses in my area are on an acre+ land. It's not rural but it's definitely not a dense area nor is it walkable to anything. We have trail cameras set up to spy on the javelinas - the ring cameras catch their activity too but like Nancy, we do not have a subscription - it's just not worth the cost, but it's nice to have to see who's at the front door and it will capture wildlife. It's really cool to see the javelinas, but they cause a lot of destruction and we wanted to know when they come and what they're so attracted to in our front yard.

The ring subscription is like $50-100 per year. I hope you're not in PV saying it's just unaffordable.

It was Savannah. Just like the guy who staged his own racial attack. She needs to publicity.

Why bother having these things if they start recording over themselves after three hours? Literally pointless.
