Savannah Guthrie Issues New Plea in Search of Mother Nancy 6 Months After Disappearance
Authorities are analyzing ransom notes and DNA evidence as the Guthrie family seeks leads in the unresolved disappearance, investigators said.
- On Saturday, the six-month mark since Nancy Guthrie disappeared from her Arizona home, authorities released two ransom notes sent to Tucson television stations in February, seeking public help to identify the kidnapper.
- The first note, sent Feb. 2, demanded $4 million in bitcoin for Nancy Guthrie's release, while a second note four days later claimed the 84-year-old had "perished" shortly after being kidnapped.
- Authorities believe "distinctive linguistic characteristics" in the notes might identify the writer, citing similarities to the Unabomber case where Theodore "Ted" Kaczynski pressured The Washington Post to publish his 35,000-word manifesto.
- Today show host Savannah Guthrie wrote on Instagram that her family is "desperate" and "begging for help" in her mother's disappearance, urging anyone with information to come forward, even if afraid or conflicted.
- Investigators continue pursuing leads including doorbell camera footage of an unidentified masked male, while Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said labs nationwide are working to separate a mixed DNA sample to potentially identify a suspect.
