Choice Hotels get you more of what you value. Here's a little tune to help you remember. Welcome to the TMZ Pod. It's Deven here with Branson.

**Branson** (0:42)
Good morning. Deven, how are you doing?

**Deven** (0:43)
I'm doing good. Happy Friday, everyone.
Big story that we just actually put up on social, I believe is about to go up on the website. We got another email from this person who is claiming that they know who the kidnappers are for the Nancy Guthrie case. And this is the same person who I believe has sent us about 11 or 12 different emails where he has, he or she, we don't know exactly who this person is, but they have put in information, a lot of stuff they're saying makes it really seem like they actually do know either where Nancy is and who the people were that kidnapped her.

**Branson** (1:36)
Right. And we just want to break in this case.
So it's just so sad. Like there's nothing. And now we have this. Now it feels like there might be something. There's something brewing.

**Deven** (1:46)
Yes. So and this person has clearly been watching us follow the case. And they're clearly watching the stuff we're putting out because they're addressing it directly in this new message that we received this morning.
And again, they are the, this is the same person who is just asking for one Bitcoin. They have sent a crypto wallet and are saying once this, you know, Bitcoin is deposited in this account, I will give you what I have. And actually we'll, let's just play it because Harvey did a big breakdown of the note for social media and the website. So here is Harvey talking about it.

**Harvey** (2:29)
Today is Friday, June 26th and we have received another email from the man who says he knows who Nancy Guthrie's kidnappers are and can lead the FBI to those kidnappers for one Bitcoin. So the man writes that he has clearly been following things we've been saying, questioning the FBI telling us that the person who wrote this might be a female. The person does not say he's a male for sure, but he puts a big question mark there, and then also puts a question mark where we say we might be doing a documentary. So he says in this email that he is not, as he puts it, I am not the idiot who recently called in a tip about her burial site in Mexico. He goes on to say, only two are directly involved, and I doubt they would be the ones calling to snitch on themselves. So he has said to us before that there were multiple kidnappers and there was a main kidnapper, but definitely plural kidnappers. He has said that before.
In this email, which by the way, we have sent to the FBI, he says that he has video. He has video of Nancy Guthrie with the main kidnapper on what probably would be the last day of her life. That's the way he puts it here. He says, what it contains is my definition of delivering it on a silver platter, a short video of the main guy with Nancy the day that was probably her last. He also says that he has names, addresses, phone numbers of the kidnappers. Now, he says he has that video in a phone and the phone is turned off. It is in a secure secret location, but a location easy to find if you know where to look. That's what he says. He doesn't say a safe deposit box, but he says easy to find if you know where to look. And he says that if he gets a Bitcoin, he will deliver as he puts it on a silver platter exactly how to get access to this phone including the password.
So, he did not, this is clearly the guy who has been sending us these emails, because he says that the Bitcoin address he gave us before is no longer working, and he actually wrote the Bitcoin address down, and it does match what we saw previously, and we've never reported that. He gives a new Bitcoin address, and he says he wants a Bitcoin, and in return, he will basically deliver access to that phone as he puts it on a silver platter.
So look, we've sent it to the FBI, and this has become such a cat-and-mouse game. If this person is real, then go to wherever that phone is and get a screen grab of something proving that you're not a liar and somebody who is trying to inflict more pain in the Guthrie family. If you've got something, send it. I mean, you've been sending us more than a dozen emails. Send us something to show you're not a fraudster.
