Savannah Guthrie addressed potential kidnappers holding her 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie, on Saturday, stating the family stands ready to pay for her safe release.

Plea in Video Message

In a video flanked by her siblings, Guthrie delivered a direct appeal: “We received your message, and we understand. 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.”

It remains unclear whether this refers to a recent communication from those responsible for Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance.

Search Efforts Intensify

The urgent search for Nancy Guthrie now enters its seventh day. Officials believe she was taken against her will from her home just outside Tucson, Arizona, over the weekend.

Sheriff Chris Nanos confirmed that DNA tests match blood found on the front porch to Nancy Guthrie. Authorities have yet to identify suspects or eliminate any leads.
