Nancy Guthrie Case: When They First Learned She Was Missing And.....

they went into the house - were there signs of a struggle or did it look like she maybe had a relationship (knew them) with the captor(s) and walked out with them willingly?

This thing is going on too long with no real progress. When I read accounts of what's gone on since she was reported missing - things haven't changed much.

Seems like no sense of urgency. Seems like this whole incident has been botched from the beginning.

On the other hand there might be a lot of info that the investigators know that we're not privy to.

1. Predictably, Kash Patel stepped on his dick by announcing they had detained someone

- who turned out to be some poor Door Dash driver who had no idea what he was being questioned about. No doubt local LEOs are investigating things that they don't want publicized, but Patel's FBI seems about as useless as a chocolate teapot, as usual.

They are long on bullshit, flash and drama.
But are acting like the keystone cops.

Local cops are even worse.

Did she leave with the captor(s) willingly or did it look like she was somehow wrestle out of the house?

I'm sorry I didn't have a lot of confidence in the Sheriff's first news conference and (like in so many other incidents like this) they hold numerous news conferences either the same day and those following.

This Sheriff's Dept seemed to has kept us in the dark about the status of the investigation.

It's been my experience that the more info shared with the public - the more likely good leads turn up.

How many days have gone by without any up to date reporting of the investigation, leads and any follow-up- whether good or not. One never knows how the slightest bit of info might jog another person's recall.

I'm concerned that early on with this investigation many clues were missed because of the lack of incidents,/experience in such a small and rural community.

Go back and watch the very first news conference of this incident and tell me that instills a lot of confidence in you that they know what they are up against and what they were/are doing

It took them days to get results from some of the evidence they collected from the scene.

I thought when the FBI got involved we'd see more progress. But that organization has been gutted and is down in experience.
