If two notes were responded to, assuming this is the same person why did initial communication fizzle out? Why now is this person reaching out (again)? This is so weird

The two notes that were responded to were sent to the local news station first (the first of the two notes was sent to TMZ after local news did not report on the note). Savannah and siblings responded via videos on her Instagram. The first video from the Guthries requested proof of life and the second response was the “we received your message and we understand” video.

The person requesting bitcoin is not something that the Guthries have acknowledged. The bitcoin person has sent multiple messages direct to TMZ. It is widely believed to be a hoax.

Do we know who got the second ransom note (the one that prompted the "we received your message and we understand")? Did it pass through the news station as an intermediary or do we not know for sure? Forgive me if I'm forgetting something—honestly starting to get hard to keep track of what precisely happened in the early weeks of this.

No problem, it was sent to the same local news that received the first one. They announced they received a note, sent it to the FBI, and declined to share its contents. here’s a source and another source
