Kidnapping & Ransom Cases

Savannah Guthrie’s brother Camron released an Instagram plea urging Nancy’s possible abductor to contact the family and provide proof she is alive; the family says it has received no direct communication and reported Nancy missing after she missed church following dinner at daughter Annie’s home. Authorities — including the FBI, which has offered a $50,000 reward for information — say they are vetting a “new message” tied to the case, note a ransom note set an initial deadline at about 5 p.m. Thursday, and are treating the disappearance as a criminal matter with Nancy believed to be “still out there.”
