Ransom notes found during the investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie have been called into question by a criminal profiler, who suggests they may not be authentic.

John Kelly, a criminal profiler, stated that the ransom notes exhibit characteristics that suggest they were not created by the primary suspect. According to Kelly, the notes appear to present two different personalities, which raises doubts about their genuineness. He expressed skepticism, stating, "I don't believe they're real."

The assertion from the profiler suggests a potential disconnect between the communications found and the individual or individuals believed to be responsible for Guthrie's disappearance. This could have significant implications for the ongoing investigation and the legal proceedings that may follow.
