10:38 AM PT ... Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... investigators do not believe the latest alleged ransom note sent to one of Nancy's female friends is credible. We're told there are some "weird things" about the note and investigators are more than suspicious that a friend of Nancy's would receive a legit extortion ransom note 8 months after the fact.

Investigators are breathing new life into the Nancy Guthrie case, saying they are looking into the veracity of a “new possible ransom note."

The Pima County Sheriff's Office announced they have recently been made aware of the note, along with social media comments about it ... and they are now probing with the FBI to see if the note is authentic. The contents of the note were not released.

As you know ... the 84-year-old Guthrie was kidnapped from her home in Tucson, Arizona, in the early morning hours of February 1, 2026. A masked intruder was caught on a doorbell camera lurking at her front door before the abduction ... and the FBI released footage of the suspect.

The Mayor of Ithaca, New York, isn't happy with Cornell University's handling of the alleged fraternity gang rape ... and current students are paying the price.

Mayor Robert G. Cantelmo released a statement on Monday ... saying he became aware of the "heinous and sickening allegations" last week, and making it clear that Cornell University administration and police never contacted or coordinated any response with the Ithaca Police Department.

He says Cornell didn't hold the alleged perpetrators accountable ... and adds, "This is a miscarriage of justice and continues to pose a significant threat to students and residents who may be victimized at unsafe and under-monitored on- or off-campus student events."

The woman accusing seven Cornell fraternity brothers of drugging and gang-raping her says she made her allegations clear from the start ... despite the D.A. suggesting otherwise.

The Jane Doe's attorney, Thomas P. Giuffra, tells TMZ ... his client reported the alleged 2024 assault to Cornell Police after she had time to process what happened -- and he says the police report includes both the alleged assaults and ketamine.

Giuffra adds ... "The report prepared by the police is not materially different from what is contained in the complaint ... the drug ketamine was certainly mentioned as were the allegations."

Authorities say she landed in the courtyard and pool area of the Rambler Athens apartment complex, which is a popular off-campus housing complex.

Police say she was taken to a hospital nearby, where she's "conscious and alert but seriously injured."
