I am going to laugh my ass off if this Guthrie woman got kidnapped by a bunch of pajeets that ended up and had to kill her because they couldn't figure out how crypto works

I thought an ambulance took her away and no one called the family.
The bitcoin angle is just dumb. If you're operating in any jurisdiction that is friendly to the feds, and the feds have sufficient interest, they will trace the block until somebody liquidates.
There's a lot of people in the world ready to wash some money for a %, crypto no different.
In the case of "until somebody liquidates", the "somebody" would end up being some poor sap whose been playing offshore gambling for years and finally got a payout...

But I will add that if you got that money by bashing someone's head in with a hammer, even offshore banks frown on that.
I didn't say it would lead directly to the perp, but you do get a witness or another trace. The real issue is how interested the fed is, e.g. how far are they willing to go. Kidnapping the mother of a major journalist who has even interviewed the president if I recall, and creating a story that puts the feds themselves and their results in the news seems kinda dumb. The fed almost has to solve this for street cred.

1Oh yeah, in that case it sounds more like she crossed the mob, so nothing's gonna happen because the mob owns the FBI.
