Unsolved

Details of ransom notes in the Nancy Guthrie case have gone public.

The mother of Today co-anchor Savannah Guthrie vanished from her Tucson home on February 1. Investigators received two ransom notes after her abduction, both believed to be credible, but tracing efforts were unsuccessful. The first note demanded millions in Bitcoin for Guthrie’s return, but CNN and a Tucson TV station held the details of the second note for months at law enforcement’s request.

The recently released second note claimed Guthrie died shortly after being taken and was “buried with nature.” Savannah responded in February with an emotional video: “We received your message, and we understand.”

The story resurfaced Monday after TMZ’s founder posted a video clarifying claims about the ransom note and addressing emails from someone claiming to know the kidnapper.
