FBI Says It Has No Evidence of Continued Contact in Nancy Guthrie Kidnapping Case 
As the ransom deadline quietly passed, hope now rests on silence — and a rapidly narrowing window for answers. 
The FBI says it is not aware of any continued communication between the family of Nancy Guthrie and the individuals believed to be responsible for her disappearance, after a reported ransom deadline expired without further contact. 
Federal authorities confirmed that investigators remain in close coordination with local law enforcement and international partners as the search continues. While earlier messages from the kidnappers prompted urgent negotiations and security planning, officials say no new demands or proof-of-life messages have been received in recent days. 
The lack of communication has raised deep concern among relatives and supporters, who fear the situation may be entering a more dangerous and unpredictable phase. 
Law enforcement officials emphasized that the investigation remains active and sensitive, urging the public to avoid speculation that could interfere with recovery efforts. 
They also declined to comment on operational details, citing the safety of the victim as the top priority.
