On Monday, Savannah Guthrie expressed a heartfelt plea, aimed directly at her mother’s kidnapper. It has been over 25 weeks since 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie went missing from her home in Arizona. In a poignant message posted on Instagram, Savannah Guthrie implored the kidnapper to return her mother, emphasizing her family’s enduring pain and persistent search.
Guthrie addressed the kidnappers directly, saying, “Do the right thing now. Make the right choice. Help us find her. Tell us where to look for her.”
An image released by NBC shows Nancy Guthrie alongside her daughter, Savannah Guthrie, the ‘Today’ host, amidst the ongoing search for Nancy, who disappeared from her Tucson home.
In her message, Guthrie stated, “It’s been months since our mom was taken. Our family is in agony, trapped in a never-ending nightmare. We will never stop looking for her. We will always feel the void in our hearts.” She added, “I believe it’s never too late to do the right thing. Help us bring this situation to an end. Please make the right choice.”
Recently, Guthrie and her husband, Michael Feldman, were seen at LaGuardia Airport in New York City. Her departure followed hosting duties for the ‘Today’ show and an incident involving her colleague Craig Melvin. She is also engaged in filming a new ‘Wordle’ game show.
The Guthrie family urges anyone with information to call 1-800-CALL-FBI, offering a reward of over $1 million. A separate reward is available through Tucson’s Crime Stoppers by calling 520-88-CRIME.
According to the Pima County Sheriff’s Department, Nancy Guthrie was abducted from her Tucson residence in the Catalina Foothills on February 1st. DNA results and other forensic details remain undisclosed as the investigation continues. A so-called ransom note and subsequent message claiming her death have yet to be validated by authorities.
