The activity at the home by apparent investigators Wednesday was the most seen at the residence in several days, though it wasn’t clear who the individuals were affiliated with or what prompted the action. You know this could be routine. I wouldn’t read into this action being *** reaction to any of the tips from last night. Those tips pouring in after Savannah Guthrie posted *** video Tuesday announcing an increased reward of up to *** million. Dollars for information leading to her mother’s recovery. You’re going to bring out that broad net and you’re trying to bring as many fish in to try to see which one you will take in. The increased reward led to hundreds of new leads. *** source close to the family says the new reward was offered in consultation with law enforcement. This isn’t for the abductor. This is for someone who’s in the abductor’s orbit, *** friend, *** colleague, an associate. I’m Reed Binion reporting.
