As the search continues for 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, who is believed to have been kidnapped from her Arizona home, her daughter and “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie made a heartfelt plea to the abductor in a recorded video shared on social media.
In the emotional message, Savannah Guthrie expressed her family’s readiness to communicate with the kidnapper but stressed the need for proof of Nancy’s well-being. The family is seeking confirmation that Nancy is alive before any negotiations take place, citing concerns about potential manipulation of information in today’s world.
Nancy Guthrie was last seen after being dropped off at home by her family on Saturday night, and she was reported missing the following day when she failed to show up at church. A search was conducted by the police around her residence, but no detailed update on the investigation has been provided yet.
Despite media reports of ransom notes received by multiple organizations, authorities have not identified any suspects in the case. The family’s emotional video message directed at Nancy Guthrie emphasized their love and the urgent need for her safe return.
Supporters gathered at a vigil in Tucson to pray for Nancy Guthrie’s well-being and safe return, reflecting the community’s solidarity during this difficult time. Savannah Guthrie, who has temporarily stepped back from her professional commitments to be with her family, has been overwhelmed by the outpouring of support.
