Summary
Six months after 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie was taken from her Tucson-area home, the Pima County Sheriff's Department and the FBI Phoenix Field Office released the full text of two ransom notes sent to Tucson CBS affiliate KOLD — the first on February 2, addressed to her daughter, Today anchor Savannah Guthrie, demanding $4 million in bitcoin; the second on February 6, claiming she had died shortly after being taken and was "buried in nature." Investigators say the notes share a distinctive linguistic style they hope someone will recognize. No suspect has been named and the notes' authenticity has not been confirmed. Also: jurors in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial heard three Beth Israel Deaconess Plymouth emergency physicians describe treating Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months, after the January 2023 strangulations in Duxbury, Massachusetts. Clancy has pleaded not guilty and contests criminal responsibility. And in Wayne County, Michigan, Jalen Pendergrass was sentenced Friday to 25 to 50 years for the second-degree murder of his 17-year-old ex-girlfriend, London Thomas, whose body was found sealed in a plastic bin 21 days after she disappeared. His mother, Charla Pendergrass, has pleaded not guilty and awaits trial. Join our new FB groups page here. Take the poll! Join the Daily Crime & Justice community on social media!
