Savannah Guthrie renews appeal six months after mother’s disappearance
Developed over time first seen 2 months ago
Savannah Guthrie has renewed her public appeal for information about her missing mother, Nancy, six months after her disappearance, ending months of investigation with no arrests made and no suspects officially named. Her statement followed the release by authorities of two ransom notes sent to the family, one of which claimed Nancy had died shortly after being taken and was "buried in nature", deepening the family's distress as the case remained unresolved.
Nancy Guthrie, 84, was taken from her home near Tucson, Arizona, on 1 February, with the family saying she was removed from her bed during the night. Despite security footage reportedly capturing a masked man at her door and DNA found inside the property, investigators had not identified a suspect six months on. Savannah urged anyone with information to come forward anonymously, noting that a reward remained available, and said the family would "never stop looking for answers" as they sought closure.
