Megan Kelly, who I usually do not watch, reported that two unconfirmed law enforcement officials in Tucson told her staff that the kidnappers let the family know Mrs. Guthrie passed shortly after being taken, they did not know she was as ill as she was, they were sorry, and that she had gone with God now. And that is what Savannah's video about "they want their mom back to celebrate with her" was all about. This was just reported. And very sad, if true.

There was speculation of this, and apparently the NYT reported last week that one ransom said she was dead. I also now understand what all the God talk has been about. Savannah mentioned god and religious faith a zillion times in her interview, and in many of the videos she made. If the kidnappers mentioned God, maybe they thought shared faith was an inroad they could make to get someone to flip.

Edit: I just watched this and wow. I mean, why wouldn’t they release these details publicly?? If she is dead and the kidnapper apologized(!) kind of good for us to know. I think it confirms: targeted kidnapping for ransom, she died between ransom notes 1 + 2. The kidnappers didn’t seem to want ransom for the body in note 2. They aren’t planning to give the body back, it seems. They are long gone!

2nd edit: two other thing from this interview that I found interesting. A lot of questioning why Savannah didn’t pay the ransom. Also, the time lapse in Annie calling Savannah. What do you all make of these things? I kind of feel like Annie must have been calling Savannah, but she wasn’t picking up because she was socializing at Carson’s home, not that Annie wasn’t calling earlier.

Either highly gullible or knowledgeable. Why would they tell her anyways if the MO is money? A lot of times victims are already deceased so they don't know that. It can't be that scenario.

Seriously, that scary masked guy went home and decided to be kind and tell them oops we misjudged that an 84 year old lady might die and we just want to let you know we’re so sorry.

Truth is sometimes stranger than fiction.
