TMZ has received another email from the person who claims to know the identity of Nancy Guthrie‘s kidnapper … and the words are chilling.
As we reported, TMZ received an email Wednesday, asking for 1 bitcoin in return for the name of the kidnapper. A single bitcoin is currently worth around $65,000. We monitored the account all day, but nothing was deposited.
Just after 8 AM Pacific Time Thursday … TMZ received a second email from the same person, who complained, “I am not being taken seriously.” He makes some ominous statements in the email … TMZ is cooperating with law enforcement by not disclosing specifics. One thing he makes clear … the situation has changed from Wednesday to Thursday.
As for why he wants a bitcoin … he says he will need money to lay low after identifying the kidnapper for fear of retaliation. He also worries he might be “incriminated like that Carlos [the deliveryman who was detained and released] guy.”
