US news anchor Savannah Guthrie has issued a new plea for help as the reported deadline for a ransom payment for her mother's safe return loomed. We are at an hour of desperation, and we need your help, she states in a video posted on Instagram on Monday afternoon.
Nancy Guthrie disappeared in the middle of the night from her home in Tucson, Arizona, and was last seen on January 31. Authorities believe she was taken against her will, and the FBI is offering a $50,000 reward for information. The family had earlier indicated their willingness to pay for her safe return, with a previous ransom deadline, meant to be paid in Bitcoin, having already passed on February 5.
Nancy's absence first raised concern when she did not attend a Sunday church service on February 1, prompting family members to investigate. In her latest video, Savannah appears alone, contrasting with earlier videos where she was accompanied by her siblings. She states, She was taken, and we don't know where. And we need your help.
Guthrie expresses gratitude for the public’s prayers and asks people everywhere, even those far from Tucson, to report any suspicious activity that could lead to clues about her mother’s whereabouts. The sheriff's office has confirmed that no suspects or vehicles have been identified, while the FBI continues to analyze ransom notes sent to local media outlets. Guthrie's desperate call for help highlights the emotional toll of this ongoing situation.
