The FBI has revealed the first images and videos of the alleged kidnapper of Nancy Guthrie. These visuals, captured on a Nest security camera, show a masked individual outside her home.
Director Kash Patel stated that the footage was recovered from residual data after recording devices were removed. The images appear to show an armed individual tampering with the camera and subsequently covering it with leaves.
Nancy Guthrie was last seen on the evening of January 31st in Pima County, Arizona. Her disappearance was declared a crime, and her home a crime scene on February 2nd.
Two Arizona TV stations reportedly received a ransom note demanding $4 million in Bitcoin, with the amount later increasing to $6 million. Both deadlines have passed without public reports of payment.
The FBI and Pima County Sheriff's Department are seeking tips and have offered a reward of up to $50,000 for information leading to Guthrie's recovery or an arrest.
