Ex-FBI Agent: Missing Mom Likely Dead
13 Apr
Summary
- Former FBI agent believes Nancy Guthrie is deceased.
- Abduction likely motivated by financial gain, says expert.
- Investigators continue to search for clues and a suspect.
A former FBI agent has voiced her belief that Nancy Guthrie, mother of Today Show host Savannah Guthrie, has likely died. The 84-year-old woman from Tucson, Arizona, has been missing for over two months. Investigators continue to actively search for clues and a suspect in her disappearance.
The former federal agent, Jennifer Coffindaffer, suggests that Nancy Guthrie's abduction was primarily motivated by financial gain. Coffindaffer noted that two ransom notes were sent to news agencies, which she speculates was a strategic move by the kidnappers. This perspective contrasts with another former FBI agent's earlier theory that the abduction was not for cash.
Investigators have pursued several leads, including blood drops found on Nancy's porch and doorbell camera footage showing a masked man near her home on the night she went missing. Despite these efforts, no suspect has been apprehended, and Nancy's whereabouts remain unknown.
