“We Will Pay”: Ransom Deadline Nears in Nancy Guthrie Kidnapping Case
The clock is ticking tonight in a case that has gripped the nation and raised urgent questions about safety, desperation and hope. For the eighth straight day, investigators are searching for Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of television journalist Savannah Guthrie, after what authorities believe may be a kidnapping tied to ransom demands.
Nancy Guthrie was last seen returning to her home near Tucson, Arizona, after spending the evening with family. Hours later, key signs of normal life went dark. A doorbell camera was disconnected. Her pacemaker app stopped transmitting. By the next morning, she was gone. What began as a missing person report has now escalated into a high-stakes investigation involving the FBI, multiple law enforcement agencies and a family making an emotional public plea.
Over the past week, several media outlets received letters claiming responsibility for her disappearance. Those messages demanded millions of dollars in cryptocurrency and included threats to her life if deadlines were not met. Federal authorities say they are still working to verify whether those messages are authentic. No suspects have been named and there has been no confirmed proof of life released publicly.

As the latest ransom deadline approaches, Nancy Guthrie’s children have stepped forward with a message that is as heartbreaking as it is direct. Sitting together, they addressed whoever may be holding their mother and said, plainly, “We will pay.” It was not a statement of defiance. It was a statement of fear, love and urgency. They asked only for her safe return and for confirmation that she is alive.
Behind the scenes, investigators continue to comb through evidence. Detectives have returned repeatedly to Nancy Guthrie’s home and nearby properties. They have searched outdoor areas, reviewed surveillance footage and followed up on tips pouring in from across the country. Officials say they are pursuing multiple leads, but they are sharing few details, citing the sensitivity of a possible hostage situation.
This case matters far beyond one family. It highlights how quickly an ordinary evening can turn into a nightmare and how vulnerable older adults can be, even in quiet neighborhoods. It also underscores the difficult choices families face when ransom demands surface and the delicate balance law enforcement must maintain between investigation and negotiation.
For now, the focus remains on one goal. Bringing Nancy Guthrie home safely. Authorities are urging anyone with information, no matter how small it may seem, to come forward. This is an active and evolving situation and every detail matters.
Stay with us as we continue to follow this case closely and keep watching for verified updates as investigators work against the clock.
