Description
A California man named Derrick Callella just pleaded guilty to sending fake ransom texts to Nancy Guthrie’s family—using bitcoin scams—after seeing their plea video online.

Callella faces up to two years in prison and a $250,000 fine, with sentencing set for September 10th. Authorities are still piecing together the mystery, offering a major reward and urging anyone with info to come forward.
