Nancy Guthrie’s final ransom deadline passes as desperate search for Savannah’s mother continues
Savannah Guthrie begs for public’s help finding mom Nancy as ransom deadline looms
The final ransom deadline has passed as the frantic search for Savannah Guthrie’s missing mother, Nancy Guthrie, continues.
The 84-year-old’s purported captors demanded $6 million by Monday at 5 p.m. MT (7 p.m. ET) in a ransom note.
The legitimacy of the message has not yet been verified and sources tell Page Six the family still has not been given any proof of life.

Ahead of the deadline, Savannah made a desperate plea on social media for help in the “nightmare” search.
“She was taken, and we don’t know where, and we need your help,” she said Monday. “If you see anything, if you hear anything, if there is anything at all that seems strange to you, that you report to law enforcement.”
The Pima County Sheriff’s Department announced there was no new additional information on Monday.

They added, that activity at the Guthrie residences will “continue tonight and into tomorrow as part of the ongoing investigative process, including the expansion of the search and follow-up on new leads.”
Savannah and her siblings, brother Camron Guthrie and sister Annie Guthrie, did not send the requested bitcoin sum by the first deadline: Thursday at the same time.
As the initial deadline passed, Camron issued a social media plea to Nancy’s alleged kidnappers.

“While we advise and recommend, from a law enforcement perspective, any action taken on any ransom is ultimately decided by the family,” he noted.
