Nancy Guthrie: Disturbing Details of First Ransom Note Have Been Revealed
The note reportedly demanded $4 million in bitcoin and threatened to kill Nancy Guthrie if the family missed deadlines.
- A ransom note demanding $4 million in Bitcoin was sent to the family of Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of Today coanchor Savannah Guthrie, nearly six months after her disappearance.
- Nancy disappeared from her Tucson home on February 1 after being forcibly taken by at least one masked assailant; she was last seen by daughter Annie Guthrie the day before.
- Crime journalist Briana Whitney revealed the note's contents on the Crime Junkie podcast, including specific details about Nancy's home. "They said she had a white smartwatch that was on the floor near her bed, like at the foot of her bed, and that there was a floodlight in the backyard that had been destroyed," Whitney explained.
- Savannah Guthrie made emotional public pleas for information, telling the Today show, "Somebody knows something," while describing the family's ongoing agony as they await her mother's return.
- The FBI is investigating whether the note is authentic, while the Pima County Sheriff's Department stated it has "no additional information to provide at this time" as reports claim a second note alleged Nancy died shortly after her abduction.
