Multiple outlets report that a ransom note connected to the kidnapping of Nancy Guthrie allegedly states that she has died. Yahoo News and the Belfast Telegraph both cite unnamed sources saying the note claims the victim is dead, although details of how the claim is presented vary between reports. One account describes the note as saying she is “dead” and includes imagery or phrasing suggesting she has been “buried with nature,” according to a source cited by Yahoo News. The reporting does not indicate that an official death determination has been made or confirmed publicly at the time of publication. The notes are described as believed to be from the abductor, but the sources cited by the outlets do not provide independent verification in the summaries provided. The reports therefore focus on the content and alleged origin of the ransom note rather than on confirmed medical or forensic findings. Authorities’ positions, the exact circumstances of Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance, and the status of any investigation are not included in the text provided. The claims are presented as allegations based on information from sources cited by the media.
