NANCY GUTHRIE: HIDDEN MEANING OF CHILLING RANSOM NOTE

Do any of the ransom notes or emails indicate Nancy Guthrie is dead? The first ransom note went to Tucson TV stations and TMZ shortly after Nancy disappeared. It demanded $4 million of dollars in Bitcoin to be paid by two deadlines. The entire contents of this note has not been made public, but we do know it included details about a broken floodlight at Nancy's home, information about her Apple Watch, and what she had been wearing.  The second ransom note arrived February 6, sent to KOLD. In it were claims that Nancy had died shortly after the abduction and that her death was unintended and she is now buried "in nature."  Joining Nancy Grace today : * David Richards -  Founder and CEO of BlockchainUnmasked,  website: BlockchainUnmasked.com * Dr. John Delatorre  -  licensed psychologist and mediator, specializing in forensic psychology, psychological consultant to Project Absentis, resolutionfcs.com, Twitter, IG, and TikTok: @drjohndelatorre * Eric Drickerson  -  Former FBI Special Agent,   CEO  EAD Global, Inc.,  former attache for the Mexico City office of the Embassy of the United States * Mike Gould - Former Nassau County (NY) lieutenant, Founding member of the New York Police Department (NYPD) K-9 unit, President of Hounds Town Charity   * Joseph Scott Morgan - professor of forensics: Jacksonville State University, Author, "Blood Beneath My Feet", YouTube Host: "Body Bags with Joseph Scott Morgan", Instagram @JoScottForensic  * Tony Brueski  - Podcast Host "Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski,"  Instagram: @hiddenkillerspod youtube/@hiddenkillerspod   * Sydney Silvagni - Investigative Reporter, 'Crime Stories' See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

NUCLEAR LAB WORKER: 2 SHOCK ITEMS IN GRISLY DISCOVERY

New information surrounding the death of former Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) employee Melissa Casias spurs new questions of whether or not she committed suicide. The last know image of Melissa shows her carrying what appears to be a full backpack. Her skeletonized body was found sitting upright with a bullet wound, and weapon near the body. However, an initial CT scan reportedly found no bullets or projectiles in her skull.  Also it was thought that Melissa took nothing with her from her home and her phones were reset to factory setting.  We now know that she took her tooth brush and her thyroid medication. Those items would not be needed if a person were planning their own death.    Joining Nancy Grace today: * Franc Milburn - former British intelligence officer   * John Nantz  - former supervisory special Agent, FBI, Townhall columnist, X, Truth Social, and Instagram: @theJohnnantz, LinkedIn and FB: @johnnantzWebsite: townhall.com/columnists/johnnantz * Joseph Scott Morgan - professor of forensics: Jacksonville State University, Author, "Blood Beneath My Feet", YouTube Host: "Body Bags with Joseph Scott Morgan", Instagram @JoScottForensic  * Lauren Conlin -reporter, LA Magazine, Co-Host of "PopCrimeTV" on YouTube, Website: www.popcrime.tv [http://www.popcrime.tv/] and primetimecrimeshow.com,  X- @Conlin_Lauren, Instagram: @LaurenEmilyConlin, YouTube: @PopCrimeTV  * Sydney Silvagni - investigative reporter, 'Crime Stories' See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
