Guthrie Ransom Note

A second note tied to the disappearance of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, mother of “Today” co-host Savannah Guthrie, said she had died after being taken from her Tucson, Arizona, home. The message followed an earlier demand for millions of dollars in bitcoin, and investigators believe the communications were likely legitimate and may have come from the same sender or group, possibly from the same IP address. Several outlets reported the note included the phrase that Guthrie had been “buried with nature now,” a detail a former FBI hostage negotiator described as ominous. The new disclosures mark a grim turn in a case that has remained unresolved months after her reported abduction.
