That was walked back during Thursday's press conference, and the FBI was asked about it, and they quickly...

exchange of the podium and the sheriff comes up and he goes we're just saying family we're just saying family so I thought that was interesting that was walked back as well as forced entry that had been on record reported from authorities that was walked back yesterday as well when he was saying I don't know where that has come from that's something we're not talking about

Also just was a note that was unusual too.

I'm not asking you to say that the window was busted in in the kitchen, but now you're saying that we're not discussing forced entry or not.

That to me is like the person knew how to get in the house.

Yeah, well, there's no word if they're willing to pay.

They want proof of life first.

That's the big demand.

They do want to move forward and open up that communication line because a ransom note doesn't give any proof of life and doesn't give a way to communicate.

So that's why they're going out on Instagram.

They're going out to the global platform and trying to be like, we want to talk.

we want to communicate with you, but we want proof of life.

They're not going to continue to play this fishing game.

And now we know the imposter from LA was arrested that reached out to Annie Guthrie and tried to get Bitcoin, but they want proof of life and they want to open the communication.

And I am assuming if they are going that far that they know this is legit, there would be talks about payment as well, because this is their mother's

This is the grandmother that they obviously think is being held by this person of this ransom note.

So you were one of many people that have had frustrations with how Nashville's handled this.

You had celebrities including Reese Witherspoon, John Ridge,

speaking out about the lack of urgency, it seemed, that Nashville Electric Services had.

So the holdup really came down to a lack of preparation, and now Nashville Mayor Freddie O'Connell is calling it unacceptable.
