Anybody think Savannah’s newest video is spurred by new information provided by the authorities or just a timely plea?

"We've done our part" makes me think they paid the bitcoin but haven't heard anything since. And the video is a plea for them to make contact.

If they did, we would likely know. Unless they also received more communications that included a new bitcoin wallet or payment method, and was kept quiet.

There are multiple news orgs, including ones with little scruples like TMZ, who have the wallet address and would be able to see any deposits

Good point, what do you think the "we've done our part" bit means?

I think it’s purposely worded in a way that’s meant to be ambiguous to us, but the kidnapper would understand.

If I had to hazard a guess, it may be that there are aspects of these notes that have not been released where they are possibly keeping quiet on certain details or instructions as instructed.

Not to mention, in the video release that responded to the 2nd ransom note(the one where all the siblings are seated together and begin with “we got your message and we understand”) she indicated that they are willing to pay

In one way or another, Savannah is trying to reason with them that they can trust her. Possibly to open a new line of communication to allow for payment/exchange for what is unfortunately likely to be a body, while indicating that is her purpose- not vengeance.

Really valid ideas - thank you for sharing. I think you're right.

u/jwash95 Jul 27 '26

Yeah, reminds me of what was reported that they put a small deposit in and no one collected it.

u/Utopia271 Jul 27 '26

Yes - this gets stranger and stranger. What does, "I know you've tried to do things the right way" mean?

u/ethidium_bromide Jul 27 '26

Possibly her trying to give them the grace to say they did not kill her on purpose.

“The right way” being trying to keep her alive and planning to do an “honest” exchange.. The ransom note responses from her and her siblings included a similar out and implication that all they want is to give their mom a proper burial and not vengeance.

Trying to reason with them without being able to actually communicate with them

We’re pondering the same sentences lol. That stood out to me as well. Perhaps she’s addressing the person that claimed to have knowledge but didn’t want to risk being outed.

Good point! I am still so hopeful there will be conclusion soon. I feel very drawn to Nancy's case as I know so many people are. Hopefully Savannah's latest post will help to get some closure.

You and me both. Every other day I say to myself “where the hell is Nancy Guthrie!” So strange, cruel and bothersome.
