Nancy Guthrie has been missing for nearly a week, and authorities don’t seem to have any idea where she is. But did the alleged ransom note give any clues??
TMZ‘s Harvey Levin, who received one of the ransom notes, already revealed he believes there were clues in the email that pointed to the alleged captor being from the Tucson, Arizona, area. He didn’t say exactly what those clues were, but noted it came from some specific language used.

Well, now TMZ‘s breaking down this theory even more. On Friday, the founder explained where exactly he thinks the 84-year-old might be, assuming the ransom note is legit (it’s yet to be verified by the cops). He said:
“I believe now that there is a way of connecting the dots and that law enforcement has an area that they are most interested in, in terms of where Nancy might be, if this letter is legit.”
He went on to reveal that the letter says that, if they get the Bitcoin transfer they’ve demanded, the person would “return [Nancy] back to Tucson.”
So, if this letter is real and comes from the person who really has Nancy, that means she’s not in her hometown anymore?? So, where is she?? Harvey continued:
“They also give a timeframe of how long it would take after they receive the money to return her to Tucson.”
Ruling out the use of a plane, which would require Nancy to show ID, and speculating the driver(s) would be going about 60 mph, the outlet came up with a hypothetical radius the authorities may be looking at to figure out where Nancy was taken. And, uh, it’s alarmingly large, covering parts of Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah, Idaho, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, Kansas, Oklahoma, and even Mexico, which would require the challenging task of getting across the border twice. Phew. That’s a lot.
Harvey also insisted the letter was well-written and seemed to be done by someone who was “educated” and took their time on it. Hear more:

The first deadline on the ransom note was at 5 p.m. on Thursday. The next is set for Monday. We sure hope they can find her before then!
A tip line has been set up: see HERE. The FBI has offered a $50,000 reward for information leading to the recovery of Nancy Guthrie, and/or the arrest and conviction of anyone involved in her disappearance.
