Savannah Guthrie Issues Proof‑of‑Life Plea in Suspected Abduction of Her Mother

No suspect has been identified in the FBI‑assisted case.

Overview

  • Guthrie and her siblings released a video saying they are ready to talk but asked for proof their 84-year-old mother is alive, citing her need for daily medication.
  • Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos says the disappearance is being treated as a crime with possible kidnapping, and investigators report hundreds of leads with no person of interest named.
  • Federal agents are assisting the probe, and President Donald Trump said he spoke with Guthrie and directed federal law enforcement to support local efforts.
  • Detectives are processing evidence from the home, including DNA confirmed as Nancy Guthrie’s, with reports of apparent blood and a removed doorbell camera as deputies and K‑9s returned Wednesday for follow‑up.
  • Multiple outlets reported receiving alleged ransom notes, including bitcoin demands, which authorities are reviewing but have not verified.
