00:02:33.420 now entering its sixth day.
00:02:35.820 A new video posted on Savannah's Instagram last night, this one of her brother Cameron.
00:02:41.380 This is Cameron Guthrie.
00:02:42.640 I'm speaking for the Guthrie family.
00:02:44.680 Whoever is out there holding our mother, we want to hear from you.
00:02:48.460 We haven't heard anything directly.
00:02:50.100 We need you to reach out and we need a way to communicate with you so we can move forward.

00:02:58.560 We want to talk to you and we are waiting for contact.
00:03:02.000 Multiple media organizations receiving a ransom letter earlier this week
00:03:05.960 requesting an undisclosed amount of Bitcoin by 5 p.m. yesterday.
00:03:11.120 The latest Guthrie video on Instagram posting exactly at 5 p.m. local time.
00:03:15.840 A second deadline listed in the ransom note, the specifics of which have not been disclosed,
00:03:21.820 hits on Monday.
00:03:23.540 FBI Special Agent Heath Yonke yesterday confirming the ransom letter contained details relevant
00:03:29.420 to the crime scene, referencing a floodlight on Nancy's home and her Apple Watch.
00:03:35.500 Agent Yonke also saying the note did not establish any kind of communication protocols.
00:03:40.880 To the contrary, TMZ, which received a copy of the ransom note,
00:03:44.480 reporting yesterday that the letter made clear no talking was desired.
00:03:49.380 As investigators worked to solve Nancy's disappearance,
00:03:52.520 a California man under arrest for allegedly sending fake ransom texts.
00:03:58.340 Derek Colella of Los Angeles arrested by the FBI in connection with two text messages
00:04:03.520 received by Nancy Guthrie's daughter Annie and her husband Tommaso Sioni
00:04:08.660 shortly after the publication of the Wednesday video featuring the three siblings.
00:04:13.480 The texts sent from a California-based phone number, reading, quote,
00:04:17.900 Did you get the Bitcoin? We're waiting on our end for the transaction.
00:04:22.220 Investigators determining the phone number was generated through an app,
00:04:25.540 allowing users to create a secondary number for their mobile devices,
00:04:29.840 separate from the phone's actual number.
00:04:32.400 Some quick investigative work allowing law enforcement to connect that phone number to an email address,
00:04:37.720 the FBI gathering additional records leading straight to Colella's residence.
00:04:41.640 According to the criminal complaint, after being read his Miranda rights,
00:04:46.020 Colella admitted to using the account associated with the phone number that sent the two text messages.
00:04:52.000 He also made a nine-second-long call to an unidentified member of the Guthrie family.
00:04:57.840 Colella telling authorities he found the Guthrie family's information on a website
00:05:01.600 and sent the message to see if the family would respond.
00:05:05.340 This is sick. Who would do this?
00:05:09.040 Colella's charged with two felonies related to demanding ransom payments across state lines
00:05:14.000 and transmitting threatening communications.
00:05:17.300 Authorities say the text messages are not linked to the ransom demands received by the media.
00:05:22.260 With a contempt of Congress vote looming,
00:05:26.700 Bill and Hillary Clinton backing down
00:05:29.040 and agreeing to appear for depositions before the House Oversight Committee
00:05:32.660 in its probe into the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation.
00:05:37.080 Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton now publicly challenging
00:05:40.260 Oversight Committee Chairman Republican James Comer
00:05:42.680 to hold a full public hearing.
00:05:44.740 The Oversight Committee issuing a subpoena for both Clintons in August.
00:05:49.180 Over the subsequent months, Congressman Comer accusing the Clintons
00:05:53.000 of not working in good faith to secure a deposition date.
00:05:57.100 In January, the Clintons taking a principled stand,
00:06:00.720 writing to Mr. Comer, quote,
00:06:02.600 Every person has to decide when they have seen or had enough
00:06:06.560 and are ready to fight for this country, its principles, and its people,
00:06:11.680 no matter the consequences.
00:06:14.000 For us, now is that time.
00:06:16.900 Or, like, soon.
00:06:19.180 Like, someday.
00:06:20.960 After Chairman Comer moved forward with a contempt of Congress vote,
00:06:24.620 which passed with bipartisan support,
00:06:27.380 the Clintons deciding,
00:06:28.980 the consequences actually might matter,
00:06:31.540 and someone else will have to fight for the country.
00:06:35.000 Bubba and the missus can't go to the pokey.
00:06:37.060 They folded like a cheap suit.
00:06:38.780 Just in time to avoid a full House vote this week.
00:06:42.460 Had the House approved the contempt resolution,
00:06:44.580 the citations would have been referred to the Department of Justice
00:06:47.140 for possible prosecution.
00:06:49.460 Under federal law, contempt of Congress carries a maximum penalty
00:06:52.580 of up to one year in prison and a fine of up to $100,000.
00:06:57.120 Mrs. Clinton now set to testify February 26th,
00:07:00.380 Mr. Clinton on the 27th.
00:07:02.140 Congressman Comer on Tuesday telling reporters that if they fail to appear,
00:07:06.980 contempt proceedings remain on the table.
00:07:09.200 I'm very pleased today that the terms were the rules of a standard deposition.
00:07:15.520 So they're not going to be treated any differently than anyone else.
00:07:19.280 And the dates will be in February, in the next few weeks.
00:07:22.980 So the contempt motion is still on the table.
00:07:27.200 The contempt of Congress is for failing to show up.
00:07:30.240 This will be their third date that we've given the Clintons.
00:07:33.780 And three strikes and you're out.
00:07:36.160 The votes are there for contempt.
00:07:37.960 I think the Democrats, I think there are Democrats that will vote
00:07:40.760 to hold him in contempt if he misses, if the Clintons miss this next date.
00:07:45.360 So we're hopeful that they'll come in.
00:07:47.400 We can ask questions.
00:07:48.960 I think every American and every curious reporter would have.
00:07:52.080 And then then we'll move on.
00:07:53.880 The depositions set to be filmed and transcribed,
00:07:56.740 then released publicly, according to the chairman.
00:07:59.820 Emails from the last minute negotiations released by the oversight committee,
00:08:03.260 showing the Clinton legal team requesting that any questioning take place in a public hearing.
00:08:08.300 That request rejected in a follow-up email from the committee confirming details of the deposition.
00:08:13.860 Yesterday, Mrs. Clinton going public with the challenge, writing on X, quote,
00:08:18.580 let's stop the games.
00:08:20.680 If you want this fight, Representative James Comer, let's have it in public.
00:08:26.160 You love to talk about transparency.
00:08:28.680 There's nothing more transparent than a public hearing.
00:08:31.640 Cameras on.
00:08:32.580 We will be there.
00:08:35.100 She's super tough now.
00:08:37.220 Chairman Comer responding Tuesday to the prospect of a public hearing.
00:08:41.140 If we get to the deposition and there's something meaningful to have a hearing,
00:08:44.800 if they still want some more oversight,
00:08:46.980 then I think the members of my committee would love to have them in for a public hearing.
00:08:50.040 So we're fine with that.
00:08:52.200 But the issue here is this original subpoena and the contempt was on the deposition.
00:08:57.360 So if they get to the depositions and they still want a public hearing, we'll try to do something.
00:09:01.920 Because I think that I don't and I don't think it's any secret.
00:09:05.540 Depositions have historically been much more substantive than hearings.
00:09:09.840 Hearings are unfortunately have become more of an entertainment thing.
00:09:13.340 This is a serious investigation and it's bipartisan.
00:09:17.060 Mr. Trump Tuesday from the Oval reacting to the Clinton's deposition battle,
00:09:21.500 referencing the unprecedented lawfare waged against him and his family business
00:09:25.940 by the Biden administration and its allies.
00:09:28.860 I think it's a shame, to be honest.
00:09:32.200 I always liked him.
00:09:33.760 Her, yeah, she's a very capable woman.
00:09:37.120 She was better in debating than some of the other people, I will tell you that.
00:09:40.840 She was smarter, smart woman.
00:09:42.880 I hate to see it in many ways.
00:09:45.220 I hate to see it.
00:09:46.020 But, you know, then I look at me.
00:09:47.660 They went after me like, you know, they wanted me to go to jail for the rest of my life.
00:09:52.700 Then it turned out I was innocent, very innocent.
00:09:54.940 So they tried to put me in jail and I shouldn't feel this way,
00:10:00.100 but I feel badly that they have to go through that.
00:10:03.880 But then I say, but they did far worse than me.
00:10:07.160 They wanted to put me in jail.
00:10:08.540 Think of it.
00:10:10.740 Coming up, new forensic details in the Tepe family murders,
00:10:14.980 the brutal final moments of the couple's lives revealed,
00:10:18.300 and President Trump delivers wide-ranging remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast.
00:10:24.940 Ever been in a bad relationship?

00:10:34.500 even though deep down you know this is not how it's supposed to be?
00:10:37.600 Well, that's what daily aches and pains can feel like.
00:10:40.040 You stop expecting to feel good.
00:10:42.140 You start thinking, maybe this is just my life now.
00:10:44.740 But it doesn't have to be.
00:10:46.440 With Relief Factor, you can break up with pain, just like Anthony did.
00:10:50.040 He wrote, quote,

00:10:53.720 and I've been taking Relief Factor for about two months,
00:10:55.540 and now I'm back to running my business, fishing, gardening,

00:11:31.660 Newly released autopsy reports revealing the brutal final moments of Columbus, Ohio dentist,
00:11:38.280 Dr. Spencer Tepe, and his wife, Monique Tepe,
00:11:41.600 allegedly at the hands of Monique's ex-husband.
00:11:44.840 The Tepe's discovered deceased on December 30th inside their home,
00:11:48.900 after a friend went to check on them when Spencer did not show up to work.
00:11:52.960 According to the Franklin County Autopsy Report,
00:11:56.000 Monique was shot nine times at close range,
00:11:58.680 once in the right cheek, three shots to the chest,
00:12:01.980 one to the right side of her torso,
00:12:03.900 in the right forearm, and the right hand,
00:12:06.500 plus two more wounds to the left upper arm.
00:12:08.980 The report indicating Spencer was shot seven times,
00:12:12.420 once in the left ear, the left side of the neck,
00:12:15.140 the left upper chest, left lower chest,
00:12:17.860 left hand, left upper back, and right arm near the elbow.
00:12:21.740 The Columbus Dispatch reporting, quote,
00:12:23.520 the injuries to Spencer's hand and right arm
00:12:25.800 also could indicate he was trying to defend himself or Monique.
00:12:30.240 The couple's two children, ages three and one,
00:12:33.500 were found unharmed in the home.
00:12:36.000 Authorities arresting Monique's ex-husband,
00:12:38.000 surgeon Michael McKee in Rockford, Illinois, on January 10th,
00:12:42.500 alleging he drove 900 total miles to and from Columbus,
00:12:46.500 carrying out the killings between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m.
00:12:50.100 Monique and McKee were briefly married in August 2015,
00:12:53.800 before divorcing in June of 2017.
00:12:57.120 According to People magazine,
00:12:58.340 they separated after less than a year.
00:13:01.160 Investigators saying surveillance video
00:13:03.000 captured a vehicle linked to McKee
00:13:05.560 near the Tepe home at the time of the murders.
00:13:09.060 An affidavit revealing investigators also discovered video
00:13:12.240 capturing McKee near the Tepe home for several hours,
00:13:16.300 three weeks prior to the murders,
00:13:18.340 as the Teppes were out of town.
00:13:20.720 Columbus Police Chief Elaine Bryan
00:13:22.440 in a January press conference,
00:13:24.600 stating investigators are confident
00:13:26.300 they have the right suspect,
00:13:28.280 sharing this about the evidence collected
00:13:30.440 from the National Integrated Ballistic Information Network.
00:13:34.040 We can also say that multiple weapons
00:13:38.340 were taken from the property of McKee,
00:13:42.380 and there is a preliminary link from Niobin
00:13:45.840 to one of the weapons that ties it to the homicides.
00:13:51.200 A police affidavit in the case
00:13:52.660 revealing Monique previously told friends and family
00:13:55.700 that McKee had been abusive and threatening
00:13:58.260 during and after their marriage.
00:14:00.440 claiming that he told her he could kill her at any time.
00:14:04.140 McKee is charged with four counts of aggravated murder
00:14:06.620 and a single count of aggravated burglary.
00:14:09.360 He has since been extradited from his home in Illinois
00:14:11.880 to Ohio, where he remains jailed.
00:14:14.800 On January 23rd,
00:14:16.200 McKee appearing in court virtually for the arraignment.
00:14:19.340 His defense attorney, Diane Menaschi,
00:14:21.940 entering a not guilty plea on his behalf
00:14:23.840 and waiving a bond hearing for now.
00:14:26.600 If convicted, he faces a minimum
00:14:28.260 of life in prison with parole eligibility
00:14:30.620 after 32 years
00:14:32.200 and a maximum of life in prison
00:14:34.660 without the possibility of parole,
00:14:36.820 according to Franklin County prosecutors.
00:14:39.220 McKee's next court hearing is not yet known.
00:14:43.140 President Trump making his sixth appearance yesterday
00:14:46.080 at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington.
00:14:48.340 The event drawing dozens of lawmakers
00:14:50.520 and top cabinet officials,
00:14:52.200 including Secretary of War Pete Hegseth
00:14:54.180 and Attorney General Pam Bondi.
00:14:56.620 Also in attendance,
00:14:57.800 the president of El Salvador,
00:14:59.500 Nayib Bukele,
00:15:00.720 and musician Jelly Roll.
00:15:02.780 The president speaking for about an hour,
00:15:04.760 with much of his remarks
00:15:05.760 focused on the administration's push
00:15:07.420 to protect religious liberty.
00:15:09.520 Mr. Trump touching on some current political battles,
00:15:12.100 including a renewed push for Congress
00:15:13.760 to pass a national voter ID law.
00:15:16.120 A little thing called voter ID.
00:15:18.820 It polls at 97%.
00:15:21.200 And even the Democrat,
00:15:23.280 the people, the voters,
00:15:24.400 are at 82% for voter ID,
00:15:26.980 but the leaders don't want to approve it.
00:15:29.480 They said they will strike.
00:15:30.940 They will not allow it to happen.
00:15:32.740 It's polling at over 90%.
00:15:34.580 It's called voter identification.
00:15:36.380 When you go to the polls,
00:15:37.400 you show,
00:15:38.000 yes, my name is so-and-so,
00:15:39.640 and I live in the country.
00:15:41.280 I'm here.
00:15:41.860 I can vote.
00:15:43.000 They say,
00:15:43.440 that's not allowed.
00:15:45.220 And everyone's trying to figure it out.
00:15:47.820 And they do something to win.
00:15:50.760 You know what it is?
00:15:51.620 They cheat.
00:15:52.320 But let's get on to another subject.
00:15:54.900 No, at that,
00:15:55.620 they're the finest,
00:15:56.900 probably anywhere in the world,
00:15:58.380 I would say.
00:15:59.340 But we're trying to pass voter ID
00:16:00.900 and other things,
00:16:01.720 and other things having to do
00:16:03.080 with your religion.
00:16:04.780 And getting the Democrats to vote
00:16:06.860 is very, very tough.
00:16:08.600 Mr. Trump again publicly backing
00:16:10.220 DHS Secretary Kristi Noem
00:16:11.840 as Democrats continue calls
00:16:13.740 for her to resign
00:16:14.920 over her handling of
00:16:16.180 ICE operations in Minnesota
00:16:17.740 or face impeachment.
00:16:19.800 They were saying about Kristi Noem yesterday,
00:16:22.020 I did the Super Bowl interview.
00:16:24.500 Sir,
00:16:25.120 are you going to
00:16:26.400 relieve
00:16:27.600 Kristi Noem of her duties?
00:16:30.300 No.
00:16:31.420 Oh.
00:16:32.440 I said,
00:16:32.880 why would I do that?
00:16:33.980 We have
00:16:34.460 the strongest border
00:16:35.940 in the history
00:16:36.720 of our country.
00:16:37.820 We have
00:16:39.420 the best crime numbers
00:16:41.100 we've ever had
00:16:41.860 going back to
00:16:42.620 the year 1900,
00:16:44.640 that's 125 years.
00:16:46.840 And of course,
00:16:47.480 in typical Trump fashion,
00:16:48.940 there were some
00:16:49.520 lighter moments as well,
00:16:51.140 including him
00:16:51.820 musing about
00:16:52.680 whether he will
00:16:53.640 get into heaven.
00:16:54.940 I never get
00:16:55.760 a fair break
00:16:56.820 from the fake news,
00:16:57.720 which is back there,
00:16:58.440 that's a lot of fake news.
00:16:59.780 Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:17:01.160 Because last time
00:17:02.100 I was having a lot of fun.
00:17:03.560 We had a big red,
00:17:04.100 we had 60,000 people,
00:17:05.340 and I'm talking about
00:17:06.600 the fact that
00:17:07.080 I will never make it
00:17:08.040 to heaven.
00:17:09.540 I will never, ever.
00:17:10.760 And I was being funny.
00:17:12.020 I was trying to be,
00:17:12.620 you know,
00:17:12.800 you can't be sarcastic
00:17:13.900 with them
00:17:14.380 because they write
00:17:15.700 your words
00:17:16.280 and the people
00:17:17.820 who are reading
00:17:18.180 the words
00:17:18.560 are much different.
00:17:19.580 But I said,
00:17:20.040 I'm never going
00:17:20.480 to make it to heaven.
00:17:22.040 I just don't think
00:17:22.880 I qualify.
00:17:24.480 I don't think
00:17:25.160 there's a thing
00:17:25.820 I can do,
00:17:26.540 but all of these
00:17:27.280 good things I'm doing,
00:17:28.440 including for religion,
00:17:29.680 you know,
00:17:29.900 religion's back now
00:17:30.940 hotter than ever before.
00:17:32.460 The New York Times
00:17:33.420 did a front page story
00:17:34.600 that Donald Trump
00:17:36.120 is questioning
00:17:37.020 his life
00:17:38.520 and the meaning
00:17:39.100 of his life.
00:17:39.780 No,
00:17:40.220 I was just having fun.
00:17:41.960 I really think
00:17:42.960 I probably should make it.
00:17:44.980 I mean,
00:17:45.220 I'm not a perfect candidate,
00:17:46.460 but I did a hell
00:17:47.340 of a lot of good
00:17:48.000 for perfect people.
