"Investigators have said they're working under the assumption that the notes are authentic and would offer clues about where the person or people who sent them might reside. Given certain clues in the letters and the suspect's choice of media outlets, law enforcement sources told TMZ on Tuesday that they're operating under the belief the notes were written by someone who's very familiar with area and likely lives in southern Arizona."
"What's more, the kidnapper's promise to return Guthrie to Tucson within 12 hours of receiving the $6 million ransom points to them currently being within a 700-mile radius of the city, according to TMZ. Little else was known about the 84-year-old's disappearance until investigators recovered footage from a broken doorbell camera at Guthrie's home. Photos and video released by the FBI on Tuesday show an armed individual wearing a mask and carrying a backpack to Guthrie's front door"
Nancy Guthrie, 84, disappeared from her Tucson home on Feb. 1 after a possible abduction. Two local TV stations and TMZ received an initial ransom note; a second letter went to one Tucson station. Investigators treat the notes as authentic and say clues and the choice of media suggest the sender is familiar with the area and likely lives in southern Arizona. The kidnapper promised to return Guthrie to Tucson within 12 hours of receiving a $6 million ransom, implying a roughly 700-mile radius. FBI and Pima County authorities recovered broken doorbell camera footage showing a masked, armed individual with a backpack at Guthrie's front door. Guthrie's daughter urged the public to identify the person and bring her home.
