Summary
- Camron Guthrie, a retired F-16 pilot, pleaded for his mother's safe return.
- Ransom notes demanding $6 million in Bitcoin were sent to media outlets.
- Nancy Guthrie, 84, requires daily medication and has fragile health.
Retired F-16 fighter pilot Camron Guthrie has made direct appeals to the abductors of his mother, 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie. His public pleas for proof of life and communication have brought him into the spotlight alongside his well-known sister, Savannah Guthrie. The family has stood together, recalling their unity after their father's death, to navigate this crisis.
The investigation into Nancy Guthrie's disappearance has intensified with the discovery of ransom notes demanding $6 million in Bitcoin. These notes, sent to media outlets, contained sensitive details about Nancy's home, suggesting authenticity. The family has publicly stated their willingness to pay the ransom and urged the captors to make contact.
Nancy Guthrie's fragile health and dependence on daily medication add a critical urgency to the case. The FBI has offered a $50,000 reward for information leading to her safe return. As of February 9, 2026, there has been no breakthrough, and the case remains complex and sensitive.
