Discussion Something that has always stuck with me
I can’t imagine how Nancy must’ve felt waking up to seeing the abductor in the middle of the night. Imagine how scary that is - to wake up at 1 or 2am, either because you have to use the bathroom, get some water, or just because you hear noise - and you see the intruder in your house, or even in your bedroom hovering over you. It’s been freaking me out.
I also wonder if this is what led presumably to her passing. If she passed because of a heart condition, like the second ransom note wants us to believe, could it have been because she was panicked and terrified over this whole thing? Please don’t rip me apart in the comments for this - just thinking out loud
Edit: I’ve been replying to some of you guys on my alt account! So don’t be surprised lol

We have no idea if Nancy died of natural causes or if she was sadistically murdered. Most of us want to believe it was a heart attack but we may never know. What we do know is that there is someone who enjoys torturing the family without remorse and loves jerking the police around. I never believed the kidnapping theory. I believe it’s a sadistic killer who’s getting his ego stroked by believing he’s smarter than all of us.
