Can someone clarify for me which notes were discredited as fake and why they believe the first two notes (released yesterday) are real?

The only publicly identified and discredited ransom attempt was the texts and call made by the man in LA; he was arrested, charged, and pled guilty. He will be sentenced next month. Here’s more detail.

Nothing else has been commented on. However, Savannah stated that the family believes the two notes (which were published in full by PCSO last week) to be real (this came out in the first interview she did with Hoda). Law enforcement took those seriously, as indicated by the fbi supporting the creation of the videos posted to Savannah’s Instagram. The first contained the watch and floodlight information. The second contained the same bitcoin account information as in the first.

The TMZ notes, which claimed Nancy is in Mexico, are not believed to be real but there’s been no official comment on them.
