With another 24 hours having passed, the harrowing saga of Nancy Guthrie, the missing mother of NBC News’ “Today” host Savannah Guthrie, continues with very little in the way of real answers.
On January 31, the 84-year-old Nancy was last seen, and presumably went missing from her Arizona home early February 1.
This prompted a massive search for the elderly mother, capturing national attention and concern.
Authorities claimed that there was a ransom note, demanding $6 million be deposited into a Bitcoin account, perThe New York Post. No such funds have been added to that account as of this reporting.
Those ransom letters — also purportedly sent to various media outlets such asTMZ— listed last Thursday and Monday as two key deadlines in paying up that ransom.
Both deadlines, marked for 5 p.m. Arizona time, have now passed.
While local authorities still haven’t verified whether the ransom note in question is authentic, they have largely treated it as such given the lack of other leads.
(Of note, there doesn’t appear to have been any proof of life provided.)
This dead end has the Pima County Sheriff’s Department looking for “new leads,” according to NewsNation reporter Brian Entin.
New statement from Pima Sheriff says they are following up on new leads and we can expect to see an active law enforcement presence at Guthrie residences.So far – I have not noticed anything at Nancy or Annie’s house today.
