27 Jul
Summary
- Elizabeth Smart offers hope for Nancy Guthrie's safe return.
- Home security video shows masked intruder on doorstep.
- Over $1.2 million reward offered for information.
Twenty-five weeks after the suspected abduction of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie from her Tucson, Arizona, home, kidnapping survivor Elizabeth Smart is urging continued hope for her safe return. Smart highlighted that the absence of confirmed news about Guthrie's death leaves room for optimism.
Home security video captured a masked intruder on Guthrie's doorstep the morning she disappeared on February 1. Authorities, including the FBI, have released this footage and are actively seeking public assistance. A significant reward exceeding $1.2 million is available for information concerning the case.
Smart, who was abducted in 2002 and rescued nine months later, draws parallels between her experience and the ongoing efforts to find Guthrie. She stressed that even the smallest details could prove crucial in solving the case and bringing Guthrie home.
