Nancy Guthrie: We Asked the FBI's Deception Expert to Read the Family, the FBI, and the Silence

Published 1 week, 6 days ago
Description

Everyone in this case is talking. We asked Robin Dreeke to listen to what they're not saying.

Dreeke ran the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. His career was determining when communications are authentic and when they're managed. Tonight we put every public voice in the Nancy Guthrie investigation in front of him.

The Guthrie family has released four videos escalating from prayers to direct communication with the alleged kidnapper. The FBI simultaneously says there's been no verified kidnapper contact. Ransom notes sent to three media outlets contained insider crime scene details but no proof of life and no way to respond back. The sheriff declared footage permanently gone, then the FBI produced it ten days later from backend data. The director released it on social media with no press briefing.

We asked Dreeke to assess the family's escalation and what it reveals about their belief state. We asked him to evaluate the ransom communications as a whole — the content, the delivery method, the phrasing, the absence of proof of life. We asked whether the footage reversal fits genuine error or deliberate strategy. And we asked about the silence after the ransom deadline passed — what the absence of follow-through tells a deception analyst about whether the threat was real. His answers tonight.
