Family of Missing Woman Offer Ransom in Desperate Plea for Her Safe Return
In a heart-wrenching video message posted on social media, Savannah Guthrie, the longtime host of NBC's Today show, has appealed to the kidnappers of her 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie. The frantic search for Nancy entered its seventh day, and the family is now offering a ransom in exchange for her safe return.
"We received your message, and we understand," Savannah said, flanked by her siblings. "We beg you now to return our mother to us so that we can celebrate with her. This is the only way we will have peace. This is very valuable to us, and we will pay." The family's desperation is palpable, as they plead for Nancy's safe return.
The kidnapping of Nancy Guthrie remains a mystery, with investigators believing she was taken against her will from her home just outside Tucson last weekend. DNA tests have confirmed that the blood found on her front porch matches hers, and authorities are now reviewing a new message received by a local TV station. However, it is unclear whether this message is related to Nancy's disappearance.
Sheriff Chris Nanos has expressed frustration with the lack of evidence in the case, particularly with regards to the home's doorbell camera, which was disconnected early Sunday and did not capture images of anyone. The sheriff's department is now reviewing footage from other sources, but so far, no leads have been uncovered.
As the search for Nancy continues, concerns about her health condition have grown, as she requires vital daily medication for her pacemaker and high blood pressure. Her family fears that if she does not receive this medication soon, her conditions will worsen significantly.
In a chilling turn of events, Savannah Guthrie's video message has sent shockwaves through the community, with many expressing hope that the ransom demand may bring Nancy home safely. However, the kidnappers' true intentions remain unknown, and authorities are urging caution as they continue to investigate this complex case.

I'm so worried about the poor family, especially Savannah's mom, she sounds like she needs her medication ASAP or it could be life-threatening 
. The ransom demand is a huge risk, but at the same time, you can't help feeling desperate when your loved one is missing 
. Has anyone seen any evidence of Nancy being taken against her will? 
I'm with the sheriff's department in hoping they find something soon, maybe those doorbell camera angles can be super helpful 
. Savannah and her fam are trying to stay positive but it's hard not to be on edge when you're in their shoes 
. Can we please get some updates on this case ASAP? 
her mom has been missing for 7 days and shes still trying to get a ransom thru her daughter on tv 
its so sad and frustrating at the same time i dont know how much more they can take 
her mom was just walking home from tucson and now hes gone 
its like, what even happened to him? 
i hope the police can catch whoever did this and bring nancy home safe & sound 
it's so desperate I feel bad for them but at the same time I don't know if paying a ransom guarantees anything 
like what's going to happen if they don't get the money back or if Nancy gets hurt 
my heart is literally with the Guthrie family 
. And yeah, a ransom demand is a crazy thing to do, but I guess when you're talkin' about family, people might be more willing to listen 
. Fingers crossed the cops can figure out who's behind this and get Nancy back home safe & sound 
. It's just awful thinkin' someone could take advantage of someone like that... 
. I mean, I get it, they're desperate and want their mom back, but it's so hard to know what's going on here. The investigators are still trying to figure out how she was taken and why 
.
. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they get some leads soon and Nancy's mom gets back to her normal life. But at the same time, you have to wonder what's going through the kidnappers' minds... are they just trying to make a quick buck or is there something more going on? 
my heart is breaking for Savannah and her family 
this is so sad 
in that house 
for her safe return 
and hoping those investigators can crack this case soon
