"We have nothing else to go on but the belief that she is here, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said in an interview that aired Wednesday on Today. She's present. She's alive, and we want to save her, he added. Police have asked for any leads that might help them locate Guthrie, such as alleged ransom notes that were sent to three media outlets, including TMZ."
"When the note comes to us, it's like any piece of evidence, Nanos told CBS News. You give it to us. You give us a lead. We're going to look at every aspect of that lead and work it as a lead. Cops have not confirmed the legitimacy of the ransom notes. The one sent to TMZ demanded millions in Bitcoin, and the outlet reported the Bitcoin address was real."
"After having dinner with her daughter on Saturday night, she was reported missing after not attending church the next morning. When officers arrived at her house, they found evidence of a crime, including blood inside the residence and signs of a forced entry. What appeared to be a blood trail could be seen on the front steps of the home."
