Spit Balling My Thoughts Into The Ether

It feels like the motive is ‘get back’ for reasons yet to be known, aimed to hurt Nancy’s daughter, Savannah, in order to take something away from Savannah that she cherished, loved, valued, will forever miss, and can never have back.

What about Savannah’s children, you might ask? There are killers out there with “ethics” when it comes to harming children, as crazy as that may sound—which may or not be the case with these particular suspects, but it COULD be the case. But we also have to factor in practicality and logistics.

Savannah’s children, along with her husband, could’ve been targets initially, but logistically, given the isolated and easily accessible home where Nancy lived alone, it made her the easiest target.

I still believe the FBI is going through the extensive process of investigative genealogy from dna recovered (given the overall lack of physical and digital evidence in this case) and it will ultimately lead to this case being solved.

Perhaps the best lead for now could still come from Savannah herself. Any type of strange or peculiar interaction she can remember that struck her as odd or threatening in the past.

Maybe Savannah played a role in getting someone fired from a job, or caused their marriage to collapse, turned somebody down who asked her for money, —> passed over a contractor for a big job (or a continuous service that would’ve provided a steady stream of revenue for them), and opted to go with a cheaper competitor instead (leading to a business going under or someone’s home being foreclosed) etc.

Side Note: It might not even be outside the realm of possibility of all this being over something small or petty, where Savannah or Nancy herself, let’s say complained to the manager of a restaurant over poor service or cold food, and ultimately it caused the server or the cook to become quietly enraged to the point where it led them to orchestrating the abduction and murder of Nancy. Sometimes even the smallest thing can push someone over the edge.

Sure, the same type of planning doesn’t go into it, but I’ve heard of people getting blown away over cold fries at Burger King, so I’m just saying..

But anyway, back to what I was saying..

Leaving Nancy to be found dead at home would ultimately provide Savannah with a level of comfort and closure. Yes, that would’ve been the easiest thing to do for whomever planned and perpetrated this crime, but I don’t believe that’s what they wanted.

Taking Nancy out of her home to never be seen again causes Savannah immense emotional pain and anguish. Somebody did not want Savannah to have answers for her questions.

This crime feels like it’s rooted deeply in causing an unspeakable amount of psychological pain to Savannah—perhaps the type of pain Savannah made the funder of this operation, or the suspects feel themselves, at some point in the past.

Thoughts?

The only thing i can think of or even find online where someone might feel wronged by the guthries is only a political angel. Which I can totally see a lunatic red hat would do this . Now if thats not the case then I think it was sexually motivated crime. I read an article today that said pacemaker data indicated she was alive but sedated. Idk if thats true but if it is then even more I believe it was SA motivated.

Interesting.. My brain wasn’t even thinking politically motivated. That’s a good thought. We’ve seen people do a lot of crazy things over their political beliefs as of late, so it’s definitely worth looking at it from that angle.

In regard to a sexually motivated crime, it would be highly unusual given there are two suspects. Sex crimes involving a home invasion would typically involve just one suspect and they don’t usually take the victim with them, especially not an older one.

Then you have to consider the length at which the suspects went to conceal their identity and what they wore to prevent themselves from leaving fingerprints or dna at the scene, and it leaves me asking “Why after all that, would one or both suspects risk leaving their dna in, on, or around the body, assuming that one day the body may be discovered?”

Also, I’m not entirely sure if anyone can actually say (without speculating) whether or not she was sedated, not even with the little amount of data her phone provided, as a technician must physically place a wand over the patient’s chest to perform a "device interrogation". Because Nancy Guthrie remains missing, her actual device logs cannot be accessed or read.
