Authorities have released two ransom notes in the investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of ‘Today’ show host Savannah Guthrie. The notes were sent to a Tucson television station days after Guthrie went missing from her home outside Tucson on February 1.
Ransom Notes
The first note, sent on February 2, demanded $4 million in cryptocurrency and threatened to kill Guthrie if the ransom was not paid. The second note, sent on February 6, claimed that Guthrie had died shortly after she was taken and was ‘buried in nature now.’ The Pima County Sheriff’s Department is hoping that someone will recognize the writing style in the notes and come forward with information.
The investigation into Guthrie’s disappearance is ongoing, and authorities are seeking information from the public. The FBI is also involved in the investigation and has released surveillance videos of a masked person who appeared to tamper with a camera on Guthrie’s front porch.
Family Plea
Savannah Guthrie and her siblings have been sharing videos on social media, pleading with the kidnappers to return their mother. The family has not heard directly from the kidnappers and is seeking any information that may lead to Guthrie’s safe return.
