"Today" show co-host Savannah Guthrie shared a heart-wrenching plea to social media on Wednesday, addressed to whoever abducted her mother, Nancy, over the weekend.
Nancy Guthrie disappeared from her Tucson, Arizona, home on Saturday. She was reported missing after she didn't show up for church on Sunday morning. Police and investigators have not released any information about potential suspects or persons of interest in the case.
In a prepared statement shared on her Instagram page, Savannah Guthrie said her mother lives in constant pain and needs her medicine to survive. She also responded to reports of a possible ransom letter.
"We, too, have heard the reports of a potential ransom letter," Guthrie said. "As a family, we are doing everything we can. We are ready to talk."
"However, we live in a world where voices and images are easily manipulated," Guthrie said. "We need to know, without a doubt, that she is alive and that you have her. We want to hear from you, and we are ready to listen."
