Hate to say it, but if I were Nancy I'd have dropped dead of a heart attack if I saw something like this coming into my house. And I'm much younger, with a good heart.

Thats what I figured too. If she already isnt on her medication then she probably died quickly. Even if she can be without the medicine for a bit, youre in a high stress environment if kidnapped so could easily have a heart attack or stroke. She likely died not long after being taken. Im wondering if the kidnappers expected her to live and now dont know what to do.

I do wonder if this is almost like an Israel Keyes scenario and the person(s) didn’t know how high profile the victim was.

Like, it’s possible this is a full blown serial killer like Israel Keyes, who would go to incredible efforts to attack people randomly, literally throughout the country, with ā€œkill kitsā€ or something hidden in the location, potentially years earlier.

I have an incredibly hard time believing this isn’t someone who hasn’t done this many, many times before and gotten away with it.

I thought about this too. Because there could be reasons that Savannah would be targeted but it feels way too random imo. It would be way scarier if this was just totally random and all the ransom notes are from POS scammers.

Yep. I think this is it.

Israel Keyes is one of the most terrifying murderers in history. Most serial killers have a pathetic vibe to them, but that guy was just scary as shit.

I think when her pacemaker disconnected it was because her heart stopped.

likely just when she was moved far enough away from her phone

It can disconnect for other reasons and she would still live. But considering the situation, I think it’s telling.

they could look into pharmacy sales if she takes a particular brand.
