Savannah Guthrie's Mother Missing After Ransom Deadline Passes
Investigators in the USA found no sign of Nancy Guthrie after a $6 million Bitcoin ransom deadline passed without contact from the suspected kidnappers. Savannah Guthrie and her siblings Camron Guthrie and Annie Guthrie released a new video pleading for their mother's return while offering to pay for proof of life. The FBI established a 24-hour command post in Tucson to analyze blood traces found at the scene and follow leads from across the country.Nancy Guthrie was last seen following a family dinner on January 31 and was reported missing after she failed to attend church the next morning. Concerns are growing for the 84-year-old woman as she requires a pacemaker and daily medication for her serious medical conditions. Local sheriff Chris Nanos confirmed that while one person was arrested for a fraudulent ransom note, the actual suspects behind the disappearance remain unidentified.Forensic teams expanded their search to include septic tanks and gas station surveillance footage as the family waits for any news of her safety.
Savannah Guthrie continues to utilize social media to ask the public for assistance while investigators from several field offices coordinate the ongoing search operation. No suspects have been officially named in the case despite the intensive involvement of federal agents and crisis negotiators since early February.
