The staggering $100,000 cash reward being offered in Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance is worrying because it indicates investigators have very few leads to go on, a former FBI agent has claimed.
Nancy Guthrie authorities are able to track her pacemaker from within 800 feet using a breakthrough new bluetooth 'sniffer,' the creator of the technology has told The Post. Cops have been spotted flying over the Arizona desert using an FBI scanning device that can track a working bluetooth device — in the hopes that they can home in on the pacemaker that Savannah Guthrie 's mother had connected to her iPhone.
'Eight hundred feet reliably,' former NSA agent David Kennedy, who is working alongside law enforcement on the case, told The Post, when asked for the range of the devices. 'Bluetooth communicates at 2.4 gigahertz, the same as all your other wireless devices. In a perfect world, where there's no wireless devices, no obstructions, and you have a line of sight, you can probably get 4,000-5,000 feet if not further,' he said. 'But it's in her body, and water is a detractor from signal gain. You also have buildings and walls, interference with other 2.4 gigahertz devices as well,' Kennedy, now an 'ethical hacker' and CEO of TrustedSec said. A former Marine, Kennedy hopes the device will be rolled out using drones and is working on an app that could also help find Nancy by obtaining the MAC address for her pacemaker. 'We created an Apple and iPhone app and an Android app. If we were able to get the physical address of the implantable device , we could literally turn that entire community or city into scanning devices. He said the app, which could be ready to publish 'tomorrow,' that, when 'every single person could download on their phone and you literally hit 'Find Nancy,' and it will scan in every geographic location where they're at for that specific address and then tell the FBI, hey, there's a hit here. You need to go here to start to triangulate where it's happening. Facebook
