TMZ’s Levin: FBI ‘Very Interested’ in Guthrie Ransom and Demand Letters

The new ransom email demands nearly $6 million in a different cryptocurrency and includes a new account number, prompting FBI involvement in the extortion case.

  • TMZ reports it received another ransom email connected to Nancy Guthrie's disappearance, forwarding a different crypto account and demanding around $6 million to the FBI.
  • Nancy Guthrie was reported missing on Feb. 1, and investigators believe she was taken against her will, prompting an update from the Pima County Sheriff's Department on Feb. 17.
  • Gloves found two miles away produced DNA submitted to CODIS with no national database match, while DNA from the property remains under analysis as investigators say further testing is needed.
  • Members of Nancy Guthrie's family were cleared as suspects, TMZ reports, while media coverage continues as investigators pursue other leads. Nanos made the statement earlier this month.
  • Because the email seeks about $6 million, investigators say the ransom note uses a cryptocurrency other than Bitcoin and a different account number, complicating tracing efforts.
