TUCSON, Ariz. — A week after Nancy Guthrie, mother of Today co-host Savannah Guthrie, was reported missing from her home in Tucson, investigations into her abduction are ongoing. Authorities believe she may have been taken against her will on the evening of January 31, when family members last saw her after dinner.
Since she went missing, law enforcement has been meticulously examining multiple ransom notes sent to various media outlets as clues in their search. The Tucson sheriff confirmed that some notes included demands for money, with deadlines linked to her potential safe return. However, there is growing uncertainty about the authenticity of these communications.
Investigators have identified blood matching Guthrie's on her front porch and are probing into surveillance footage from her residence, which has proven difficult to retrieve due to a lack of an active subscription to the camera service.
As the search continues, reports indicate that Guthrie's health is a significant concern, given her age and medical conditions, including the need for daily medication and a pacemaker.
Community members have rallied to support the Guthrie family, with neighborhood patrols actively collaborating with the sheriff’s office to search local properties for any additional leads.
This is something that concerns all of us, said Sheriff Chris Nanos, expressing his commitment to finding Guthrie. We are appealing to anyone who may have information to step forward. The investigation remains active with a $50,000 reward offered by the FBI for credible tips that can lead to her recovery.
