Nancy Guthrie case: 200 days later, still no sign of Savannah Guthrie’s mom

TUCSON, Ariz. – Day 200 has come and gone in the search for Nancy Guthrie, and there’s still no sign of the 84-year-old mother of NBC “Today” show host, Savannah Guthrie.

The backstory:

Nancy Guthrie was last seen on the evening of Jan. 31 when she was dropped off at her Catalina Foothills home. She was reported missing the following day by family members after she failed to show up at church. Authorities believe she was taken against her will.

Since her disappearance, the sheriff’s department and the FBI released footage of Nancy’s alleged abductor at her doorstep.

The Ransom Notes:

On July 31, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department released two ransom notes that were sent to Tucson television station KOLD after Nancy’s abduction.

The first note claimed Guthrie was “safe but scared,” and outlined a plan to hold her for ransom. The demand started at $4 million, increasing to $6 million over a week. The writer claimed Nancy would die if no money was sent, adding that her life was in her family’s hands.

In the second ransom note, the writer claimed Nancy died “shortly after she was taken” and that she was “buried in nature.”

What they’re saying:

Six months after her mother vanished, Savannah Guthrie took to Instagram, saying her family has been in “agony and despair.”

“Six months ago, someone took her out of her bed in the dead of night. We have lived every moment, every breath, and every heartbeat in agony and despair ever since,” Savannah wrote.

What you can do:

Anyone who may have information on the case is asked to call 1-800-CALL-FBI or the Pima County Sheriff’s Department tipline at 520-351-4900. Callers can remain anonymous.

The Guthrie family is offering a $1 million reward.
