Savannah Guthrie has made another emotional plea for the return of her mother, Nancy Guthrie, now including a reward of up to $1 million for help in bringing her home.
“We need to know where she is. We need her to come home. For that reason, we are offering a family reward of up to $1 million for any information that leads to her recovery,” Guthrie said in an Instagram post on Tuesday. At the same time, Guthrie said she knows that her mother may no longer be alive, and that her family needs closure after weeks of uncertainty around the missing person’s case.
“We also know that she may be lost. She may already be gone,” said the emotional Today co-host. “She may have already gone home to the Lord that she loves and is dancing in heaven with her mom and her dad, with her beloved brother, Pierce and with our daddy.”
She urged anyone with information on her mother’s whereabouts to call 1-800-call-FBI (1-800-225-5324) and that any tips could be made anonymously. The Guthrie family is nearly a month into the search for their family matriarch after Nancy Guthrie was kidnapped in an apparent violent encounter and removed from her home in Tucson, Arizona, on Feb. 1.
At 84 years old, Nancy Guthrie is in poor health and likely without life-sustaining medications, which explains daughter Savannah indicating she may already have died in captivity. Meanwhile, the Pima Country Sheriff’s Department and FBI agents continue the search for Nancy after her abduction.
