Savannah Guthrie Responds To Alleged Ransom Note, Wants Proof of Life

Savannah Guthrie says she’s aware there’s an alleged ransom note demanding payment for the return of her kidnapped mother, Nancy Guthrie … and she says she’s ready to talk on one condition.

In an emotional video posted on her social media Wednesday, the ‘TODAY’ anchor pleads for her mother’s safe return and says the family needs proof of life before engaging with her captors.

Savannah says before there can be any movement on meeting the alleged ransom, she needs to know Nancy is alive … and she says the rise of AI makes it harder to confirm if any photos, audio or videos of Nancy are legit.

GWN was sent an alleged ransom note Tuesday and forwarded it to law enforcement. The note demanded millions of dollars in Bitcoin in exchange for Nancy, and it gave a tight deadline with an element of “or else” while also describing some things about her and her home.

Savannah and her siblings say they’ve lost the light of their lives … and they want their mother to know they love her and are thankful for all the support and rescue efforts.

Cops say Nancy was abducted from her home in the middle of the night and snatched from her bed against her will … but so far there have been no arrests and no suspects.
