In brief
NBC’s Savannah Guthrie has released a new video pleading with her mother Nancy’s kidnappers to come forward with her location. She calls on them to “do the right thing” and bring closure to a grieving family. Investigators say Nancy disappeared near Tucson on 31 January and a ransom note claimed she was dead, though no motive or suspect has emerged. The plea follows months of tension, a fading trail, and another ransom note that may be fake. Law enforcement remains active, urging media to refrain from publishing potential clues until the case is solved.
NBC host Savannah Guthrie posted a new video to social media asking anyone who took her 84‑year‑old mother Nancy to reveal her location. She says her family’s heartache has persisted for months and the situation has not changed.
In the clip, Guthrie urges the kidnappers to “do the right thing” and help find her mother. She calls on them to “tell us where to look for her.”
The case began when Nancy disappeared after being dropped at her Tucson home on the night of 31 January. Investigation details are sparse and no motive or suspect has yet been named. A ransom note sent to the family claimed Nancy had died, but investigators say some notes may be fake.
Authorities have continued searching, and the FBI and Pima County sheriff’s department say the investigation remains active and ongoing. Media is asked not to publish details of any ransom notes until the case is resolved.
The video comes amid a growing sense of urgency for a resolution that has left the Guthrie family in a state of prolonged anxiety. A new call for peace continues as the search for Nancy Guthrie unfolds.
