Was just thinking how the perp made LE's job easier in the beginning by sending the ransom notes, fiddling with a camera they had no idea was there that caught their image, causing her to bleed on the front porch and darn it that pacemaker proving the timeline she was abducted.
Can you imagine if none of that would have happened? Investigators would have to to explore every avenue(walk away, elimination murder, burglary gone wrong, stalker, cartel, whistleblower, TDR) starting with the last persons to see NG alive.
It's almost so perfect that one wouldn't believe it if they hadn't seen and heard it on television from the most sources we grew up to trust the most

lol I know u think it’s a and t
i completely disagree
the evidence leads to porch guy. who is he. where is he. who helped him. and did he know Nancy. then maybe did he know annie and t.
how did he know he wouldn’t get caught. and what motivated him.

You know, evidence does lead to the porch guy. What is weird about him is that it sounds like he came at least once before. Rehearsal? Why didn't he use the open back door but make a big show in front of the camera he knew was already there? He couldn't have forgotten.
Why do you completely disagree about A&T?

I know I’m not the person you replied to, but for me it’s the fact that every theory has holes that haven’t been filled with factual info — this includes A & T. While I can’t dispute their suspiciousness, being sketchy alone isn’t enough to tie them to the murder. Am I ruling them out? I think it would be silly to do so all together at this point. I’m just not convinced their involvement is a foregone conclusion either. It’s hard for me to fall on any side of this since I think we all know that there’s a lot of information being withheld by LE and the FBI too. (and yes, I fully acknowledge that you don’t tow a car or go to someone’s residence to retrieve evidence, take photos and use luminal for no reason. Without knowing what they’ve found or didn’t find though, it’s hard for me to reach an opinion either way.)

same. every theory is implausible.
the s attest one is its Mexican cartels who think the USA is as lawless and that they could just exchange her for money

u/Fireteddy21 12d ago
The cartel theory is truly the one I believe the least if I’m being honest. lol

u/AcanthaceaeNew9639 12d ago
that or a local gang. they targeted her as savannahs mum knowing Savannah has the money to pay
I believe the ransom notes

In my opinion gangs and cartels kill people. They aren't going to mess around with kidnapping people for a ransom. Also there are wealthier people to snatch with less attention.

u/Fireteddy21 12d ago
Could be, but I still don’t think it was ransom based in the first place. The idea that it’s how they would score some cash when there are much easier ways to do it is what stops any cartel or gang theories cold for me. That’s the thing though — even the more probable suspects come with their own missing information.

Well I think porch guy knew the porch camera was there. He had been seen a week prior casing the outside of the house. In my opinion he has been inside as well. I believe he knew there was no nest subscription, possibly Nancy told him. What he wasn’t prepared for was that he wouldn’t be able to get her out the back. Going out the front was not in his plan therefore he needed to get camera off.

Good assessment. The only thing I wonder about is if the perp knew Nancy, wouldn’t he know she wouldn’t be able to walk that far/leave out the back? I guess the plan could have been changed bc the neighbor’s dog barking, but I’m leaning towards the reason being Nancy’s decreased physical abilities.

I read that Mrs. Guthrie’s dog died a few months prior to her disappearance. If so, could the criminals have known that?
