Nancy Guthrie kidnapping suspect seen in new photos as search continues

"Today" anchor Savannah Guthrie's 84-year-old motherNancy Guthriewas reportedmissing in February 2026. See photos of the mother-daughter duo together through the years on NBC and beyond. Here, they're pictured in an undated photograph. Arizona officials say they are investigating Nancy Guthrie's disappearance as a "crime."

"We believe our mom is still out there," she said. "We need your help. Law enforcement is working tirelessly, around the clock, trying to bring her home, trying to find her. She was taken, and we don't know where."

The "Today" host did not directly address the ransom notes in her Feb. 9 video. Two days earlier, on Feb. 7, sheshared a separate video speakingdirectly to the suspected kidnapper.

"We received your message, and we understand," Guthrie said while sitting next to her brother, Camron, and sister, Annie. "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."

What is known about alleged Nancy Guthrie ransom notes

That Feb. 7 video came one day after the the Pima County Sheriff's Department said authorities were working with the FBI to investigate a "new message regarding Nancy Guthrie." They did not share further details about the alleged message.

In another video on Feb. 5, Camron Guthrieurged the purported kidnapperto "reach out" to the family, saying that "we need a way to communicate with you so that we can move forward." He noted the family had not directly heard anything from the person at that point.

In a media briefing on Feb. 4, FBI Phoenix Special Agent in Charge Heith Janke said the bureau was investigating a ransom note that had "facts associated with a deadline" and a "monetary value they were asking for," but did not include a way for the family to communicate with the author. "There has been no proof of life, and there was no other demands within that letter," Janke said.

The Pima County Sheriff's Department and the FBI has not identified any suspects or persons of interest in the case. The FBI is offering a $100,000 reward for information leading to Guthrie's return or the arrest and conviction of anyone responsible for her disappearance.
