Redacted Ransom Notes Released in Nancy Guthrie Kidnapping Case — One Says Alive, One Says Dead

Six months after Nancy Guthrie, 84, vanished from her Tucson home, authorities released redacted ransom notes telling irreconcilable stories. One demands $4–6 million in bitcoin and says she "is safe but scared." A second claims she died shortly after abduction and "is buried in nature now." No arrests have been made. The family, including Today anchor Savannah Guthrie, believes she is alive.
