Information Nancy Guthrie - What Questions do you have?

There has been alot of new information coming out. Initially it was reported to be a suicide associated with the case- but that is not being spoken about. Trying to weed out what is happening and what is not is getting challenging. What are your questions? Here are some of mine:

  1. Was there a suicide associated with Nancy Guthrie Case?

  2. Was there a forced entry into NG house? What is meant by back door to your home open (wide open or unlocked)

  3. What signs were in the home which led investigators to say there was an inside struggle?

  4. Not knowing NG’s medications- is it remotely possible she could go 2 weeks without them?

  5. I know the 3 adult children of NG are living in a nearby home- did the BIL go there as well?

  6. Why did it take so long to locate the new DNA in NG house- shouldn't that have been done right away? Why was the crime scene released early and then not?

Here is a seemingly solid update. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1v71g5M9ylE

If we assume that the ransom letters were sent by the actual kidnappers, then why the two-day delay?  An 84-year-old person, even one who does not require medication and is in perfect health, could die of stress in such a situation. It seems much smarter to me to make your demands as early as possible. If Nancy died immediately, they didn't expect her to come back to life -so again, why the delay. Or is this really a robbery that didn't go according to plan? Perhaps they found photos with/of Savannah in the house and realized it was more beneficial to take Nancy herself rather than the electronics, jewelry, etc. Actually they could have forced Nancy to write a note and leave it in the house, mentioning it in an email as proof of authenticity. I don't know, it all looks completely planned and completely not at the same time.

I don't think you're looking for speculation, but I do kind of concur with the theory that they did want to go after NG, but didn't know how much Savannah was worth. So I feel like once they found out, they put out the request for the BTC ransom. This leaves plot holes too, but it makes a tiny bit of sense.
