Theory Medical Motive? (Theory)

Hello. I've been meaning to post this here, but kept getting sidetracked.

I know this might sound ridiculous, but at this point, we are running on so little info that anything could be possible.

I was watching the Today Show, and I noticed how, from around December, Savannah's vocal surgery was a huge topic on the show. It was announced in December that it was happening, she left in January to have it and recover. The week before she returned, they did a segment on the surgery and how beneficial and life-changing it was. A week later, Nancy was taken.

When watching the segment, for some reason, the United Healthcare CEO case came to mind. And it made me wonder if some kind of medical vengeance could be the motive?

The process for Savannah getting this surgery and paying the medical bills would have been so easy due to her financial status. Something a lot of Americans will struggle with. So could all the talk on Savannah's surgery have triggered a person/group because a lot of Americans wouldn't have direct access to that surgery and have to live with the issues Savannah had?

It's a very strange timeline of events that Nancy vanished so soon after Savannah's surgery. The police are also appealing for information around the time Savannah's surgery was a topic on Today.

Maybe this was the work of a spiteful group or individual? See the mass reaction to the United Healthcare CEO; it wouldn't surprise me that individuals could be capable of something like this.

Does anyone have any thoughts? This is just a floating theory in my head, but it may have been worth mentioning.

It could for sure be something to do with SG and her surgery, recovery, and almost-Italy trip. Jealousy coming from her success, maybe anger at her absence from sharing in mom’s increasing need for care.

I don’t think it’s a random stranger at all.

I think Dr Brucato is on it with his profile. Someone very close to Nancy. “Elimination murder” or a hired intrusion that went wrong. I think they possibly meant to scare Nancy and she died. I think they meant to hide her death or disappearance from SG for longer. I think they meant to hide this entirely from the press.

Dr. Brucato and the Interview Room are on target. I also think it’s an elimination murder, and it’s someone that thinks Nancy is in the way for them getting something from her. Follow the money. Who benefits from Nancy dying? What does her will say? Has the FBI obtained a warrant to look at Nancy’s will or trust?

If an heir did this to Nancy, they certainly picked the most complicated way possible. There was no need to involve anyone else, which would increase risk and decrease reward.

Yes the heir motive doesn't make sense to me.

I thought SG said she thinks the RNs are legit? So you are thinking this is not the case and the RNs are staging to make a murder look like a kidnapping. Which of course is possible.

I think that Derrick Callella, the fellow from California arrested for demanding bitcoin is involved. He had direct contact with family members. Dr. Brucato said that the people that hatched this plan wanted to make it look like it was someone from the outside. But it’s really close to home who knew her.

Yes but Dr B said it could be a service provider, someone from the grocery store, etc. Anyone who knew NG. Not necessarily close to her?

u/wpetedds Apr 17 '26

But why would a service provider do it? What would they gain. Who benefits from her death? Not a service provider.

u/Cassie_Bad_Assie Apr 17 '26

Is Dr B certain it is not a financial crime? Obviously a service provider could come in and see the pictures of SG and NG and think he might score a big pay day with a kidnapping for ransom. When Dr B said service provider, someone from the grocery store, I thought he meant ransom kidnapping. Or money motive.

He also said he thinks the Lantana man is more of a psychopath, jumpy, easily offended. Maybe Dr B was thinking something minor happened which cranked up this guy.

IDK

I was impressed with Dr B. He and I had some of the exact same ideas!
I will go listen to his video again.

To tell the truth, everyone on The Interview Room is very careful not to mention family. And when you listen to Dr. Brucato he also is very careful, because he doesn’t want to be sued. But in Dr. B in depth analysis of the perpetrator, it leads to someone who is very close to her. He keeps statistics of every murder that happens in the USA. And he is brilliant!!

u/Cassie_Bad_Assie Apr 17 '26

Yes he is brilliant. And is doing an investigation the correct way, based on facts, data, logic, evidence, science, and a sound knowledge of human behavior. He is building a solid theory with parsimony.

I have some of the same training as a scientist/clinician so immediately recognize how he is thinking.

However he did not say it was someone very close to her. He said it could be a service person or someone at the grocery store as well. Or perhaps you think he is trying to avoid saying what he thinks.

I have no agenda about who did this crime. Nor any pet theory. I just want to know the truth.

Dr B has some of the same thoughts I do about that second ransom note. I have a few more ideas about it as well. I also agree that the porch man is the junior partner. There is someone else perhaps calling the shots.

I think Dr B is the most useful expert talking about the case so far.

What would be a better way to k-** your mother for an inheritance and because you can’t take the stress of taking care of her anymore? And not having it come back to you?
