I think the abductors aren't responding because Nancy isn't alive anymore. 😥😣😭 But the abductors must have known she couldn't survive without her medicine, so why did they take her? The ransom note was clearly an afterthought. They need to figure out why she was taken, and then they'll know who took her. I don't thing money was behind this abduction.
