I found this article. The company whose studies they cite is located in Guernsey. It seems that both Southern AZ and South California are pretty high risk for abductions to Mexico https://roughnotes.com/rnmagazine/2011/may2011/2011_05p084.htm

...probably able to track from the operator and connected app. Edit: Battery backup has also been pretty standard since 2019/2020, after California passed a law requiring all new operators in the state to have one. It became pretty standard nationwide. So it's even more likely that it might be...

Of course he was released. The severity of the bond will surely deter anyone in the future from engaging in a similar crime of extortion.;)

Derrick Callella, the man accused of sending a hoax ransom text in the Guthrie case, appeared in the Central District of California court today and was granted release on conditions and $20,000 surety bond...

I think the will get him under the charges you named. AB was saying if he had just texted, "Have you paid?" that could be possibly argued as a "just curious" , random person asking "I was just asking, did you pay it?!!" question. But the fact that he said, "Waiting on the transaction" or...

He was released today on a $20,000 bond. Nancy Guthrie: Man Who Allegedly Sent Family Bitcoin Texts Granted Bond

It is my understanding that the California man who sent the fake ransom message to the Guthrie Family is facing federal charges of transmitting a demand for ransom, and using a telecommunication device with intent to abuse, threaten, or harass a person. I still think that he should have also...

Oh wow good find @dotr , so either connected and the same group possibly or someone used this plot and stole the idea to mimic/copy cat this as a red herring!

the really weird thing about this is, if he was not connected to the other ransom request, and money was put in the bitcoin wallet, it would not go to him so how crazy is he? wants 15 mins of fame and jail ASAP?

Yes, almost zero chance she would have ever been identified via "conventional" means. Also, wow, Florida could almost compete with California in number of active serial killers back in the day. Jeez.

Suffice to say we totally disagree! I was posting on the aspects of mental illness with drug abuse and the enormity of the challenges to stabilization and recovery that torments families not so much the judicial. Delusions don’t mean that a person can’t basically function somewhat normally...

...of the Guthrie family. According to the complaint, Callella made contact soon after Nancy’s children pleaded with her potential captors in an emotional video, requesting proof of life. Callella was tracked down after the family showed the text messages to cops who located him in California.''
