Savannah Guthrie Breaks Her Silence, Offers Massive Reward For Nancy’s Return

Savannah Guthrie made an emotional plea Tuesday morning, announcing her family is offering up to $1 million for the safe recovery of her missing mother, Nancy Guthrie.

The 84-year-old is believed to have been abducted from her Tucson home in the early hours of Feb. 1. The “Today” host shared the update in an Instagram video, saying the family is clinging to hope while confronting grim realities.

“Please keep praying without ceasing,” Guthrie said in the video. “We still believe, we still believe in a miracle. We still believe that she can come home. Hope begets hope. As my sister says, we are blowing on the embers of hope.”

But she did not sugarcoat the stakes.

“We also know she may be lost,” Savannah said. “She may already be gone.”

In addition to the reward, the family is donating $500,000 to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, according to her post. She urged anyone with information to call 1-800-CALL-FBI and said tipsters can remain anonymous.

Nancy Guthrie was last seen Jan. 31 after having dinner at the home of her other daughter, Annie. When she failed to show up for church the next morning, family members went to check on her and called 911 around noon.

Since then, investigators have released chilling doorbell footage showing a masked individual on Guthrie’s front porch in the middle of the night. The suspect appears to be armed and at one point seems to tamper with the camera.

Law enforcement sources told Fox News Digital that one of the Nest doorbell images released by the FBI was captured on a different date than the others, suggesting the suspect may have scouted the property before the night of the disappearance. The source declined to specify the earlier date, citing the active investigation.

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos has cautioned that authorities have not confirmed the images were taken on separate days. In a statement, the sheriff’s department said there are no visible timestamps on the photos and warned that any claims about differing dates are speculative. The FBI has not publicly addressed the discrepancy.

Still, the possibility of a prior visit has fueled concerns that the crime was planned.

Retired FBI Supervisory Special Agent Jason Pack previously told Fox News Digital that casing a home in advance signals intent.

“That’s sophistication. That’s the hallmark of someone who thought about this before they acted. And it matters significantly from a legal standpoint, because premeditation and planning elevate the severity of what investigators are looking at,” Pack said. “The suspect in this case may have thought they were being careful. But appearing twice on camera while trying to avoid identification isn’t careful. That’s exposure. And right now, investigators are working very hard to close that gap.”

Authorities have not named a suspect or person of interest. Volunteers and federal agents continue to comb areas of Tucson’s Catalina Foothills as DNA testing on items recovered near the home remains pending.

For now, Savannah Guthrie’s message is simple: hope, prayer and urgency.

Anyone with information is urged to call 1-800-CALL-FBI.
