"The authorities' search for Today show co-host Savannah Guthrie's mother, Nancy Guthrie, has entered its second week. The people who took Nancy from her Arizona home sent a message to the Guthries. One TV station, KGUN, said it received a ransom note demanding $6 million by this evening. Here's what we know so far about the case. Police have not publicly confirmed the details of the ransom note in concrete terms, NPR's Bill Chappell tells Up First."
"The FBI says it could be complicated to receive proof of life from the kidnappers because artificial intelligence could be used to create a convincing video of Nancy. The Pima County Sheriff's Department has not identified any suspects so far in the case. Chappell notes that all the video messages the Guthries have released have a caption that ends with the same plea: "Bring her home.""
Search efforts for Today show co-host Savannah Guthrie's mother, Nancy Guthrie, have entered a second week after an apparent abduction from her Arizona home. One TV station reported receiving a ransom note demanding $6 million by the evening. Police and the FBI have not publicly confirmed ransom-note details, and the FBI cautioned that artificial intelligence could be used to create convincing proof-of-life videos. The Pima County Sheriff's Department has identified no suspects, and family videos end with the caption 'Bring her home.' Separately, Ghislaine Maxwell will be deposed virtually while serving a 20-year sentence for trafficking minors with Jeffrey Epstein; she is unlikely to provide new information while challenging her conviction.
