A recent report reveals that a ransom note sent to the media claimed that Nancy Guthrie, mother of “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie, died shortly after her abduction on February 1. According to ABC News, one of the two notes sent to a Tucson TV station stated that Nancy Guthrie had died and was buried in nature. The police have deemed both notes potentially credible.
Savannah Guthrie posted a statement on Instagram on February 7, shortly after receiving the second note. In her post, she said, “We received your message and we understand. We beg you now to return our mother to us. This is very valuable to us, and we will pay.” The family has been actively involved in the search, releasing multiple video messages pleading for information.
The investigation into Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance remains ongoing. A&E reports that local police and the FBI are working together, though there have been clashes over evidence custody. Authorities have not named any suspects but have cleared the Guthrie family of involvement. The FBI has offered a $100,000 reward for information leading to her return or an arrest.
Despite the grim claims in the ransom notes, investigators are still pursuing leads. An inside source told KJCT8 that the incident might have been a burglary gone wrong. Meanwhile, authorities continue to analyze DNA evidence and surveillance footage in hopes of finding answers.
