Nancy Guthrie Investigation Update Details
Nancy Guthrie was last seen at her house on January 31.
The news about the increased police presence at Nancy’s home comes fresh on the heels of Savannah’s sister, Annie, having her house searched late in the evening on February 7.
Annie lives approximately four miles from Nancy, and Annie’s husband, Tommaso Cioni, was the last person to see Nancy before she disappeared. He had dropped her off at her house around 9:50 p.m. on January 31. The next morning, after not showing up to a church service, Nancy was reported as missing.
By the time her children arrived at her house, she was nowhere in sight; however, her wallet, keys, and cellphone remained.
As the investigation got underway, Nancy’s house was designated as a crime scene, and blood was found inside her house and on her door.
Savannah Guthrie and Her Siblings’ Message To The Abductors
‘We beg you now to return our mother to us so that we can celebrate with her,’ Savannah Guthrie said in a video on her Instagram.
Savannah and her siblings have made a few public statements along the way, with the most recent on February 7, where they tried to appeal to the alleged person who sent a ransom note.
“We beg you now to return our mother to us so that we can celebrate with her. This is the only way we will have peace,” Savannah heartbreakingly shared at the time.
After indicating the kidnapper had provided proof Nancy was still alive, Savannah added, “This is very valuable to us, and we will pay.”
An earlier message, which was allegedly from the kidnapper, had been sent to TMZ and a local Tucson TV news station almost two days after the abduction. In it, a ransom was demanded for “millions” in Bitcoin cryptocurrency with a deadline of February 5.
Two Ransom Deadlines
Savannah Guthrie and her siblings have pleaded for their mom’s safe return.
The initial deadline came and went without the Guthrie family being contacted by the alleged kidnappers.
“Whoever is out there holding our mother, we want to hear from you. We haven’t heard anything directly,” Savannah’s brother, Camron, said on Instagram.
“We need you to reach out, and we need a way to communicate so we can move forward. But first, we have to know that you have our mom.”
A second deadline has allegedly been set for later today. The abductors have allegedly claimed there will be “consequences” if their demand is not met.
To date, Nancy remains at large, and law enforcement has indicated there are no suspects in the case.
