In brief
Sometime in 2026, NBC presenter Savannah Guthrie made a plea on the Today show for anyone with information on her mother Nancy’s mysterious disappearance. She referenced a note sent to the media in February that claimed Nancy had died, a message that was one of two directed at the family after Nancy’s January kidnapping. Guthrie said, "Somebody knows something," and added, "We are in agony," as she called on the public to share any clues. The case remains under active investigation, with authorities piecing together new leads while the family remains hopeful for answers. The network and community continue to support efforts to locate Nancy Guthrie.
On Thursday, June 23, 2026, NBC’s flagship TOTA program, Today, carried a heart‑and‑hope‑filled appeal from anchor Savannah Guthrie. The 47‑year‑old presenter called on the public for any information that could shed light on her mother Nancy’s unresolved kidnapping that took place in January of this year.
The call followed a note sent to the media in February that, according to Guthrie, “claimed her mother had died.” The Christchurch‑style message—one of two directed at the family—has not yet led to any breakthrough. Despite the lack of progress, Guthrie insisted, “Somebody knows something,” and added, “We are in agony.”
“Somebody knows something,” she said. “We are in agony.”
The family and media are continuing to press questions, while law‑enforcement authorities track new leads in the hope of locating Nancy Guthrie. The case has captured national attention and stands as a chilling reminder of the power of community support.
