Nancy Guthrie case: Ex-FBI agent lists 4 points to prove it was a ‘sophisticated’ attack, ‘Stump the FBI and LE…’

Former FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer has listed four points that prove that the “attack” on Nancy Guthrie, the mother of Savannah Guthrie, was a “sophisticated one.”

“This attack was sophisticated enough to: Stump the FBI and LE for 4 months, send ransom messages via media website in boxes that can’t be traced, set up a Crypto Bitcoin account whose wallet holder can’t be identified, hire a mope(s) to do the job who will stay silent,” Coffindaffer wrote on X.

Coffindaffer previously wondered in a social media post if a “Wrench Ring” is connected to Nancy’s case. A similar theory was also suggested by Lisa J Miller, a former law enforcement executive at the Colorado Attorney General’s Office and a graduate of the FBI National Academy. She told Fox News Digital that the kidnapping bears hallmarks of a wrench attack.

The Pima County Sheriff’s Department previously addressed the theory.

In a statement cited by Fox News, a Pima County Sheriff’s Department spokesperson said, “The Pima County Sheriff’s Department has not received any reports referencing “wrench attacks” in our community. The investigation into Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance remains active and ongoing. When there is a significant update, it will be shared publicly.”
