Authorities,including the Pima County Sheriff and the FBI,described the note as containing some details about Nancy\u2019s house that could suggest authenticity,but emphasized that there had been no direct contact. The Guthrie family publicly appealed for the captors to reach out, expressing readiness to communicate and to verify that Nancy is alive, while thanking supporters for prayers and help. A second deadline was reportedly set for Monday, but there is still no data about Nancy\u2019s whereabouts.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>The first major deadline associated with an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/savannah-guthries-moms-case-takes-a-turn-as-tmz-receives-alleged-ransom-note-for-nancy-guthrie\/\" title=\"...\u2019s Mom\u2019s Case Takes A Turn As TMZ Receives Alleged ... ...

Police say the note supposedly demanded millions of dollars in bitcoin to secure Nancy\u2019s safe return. Nancy, 84, has been missing from her Arizona home since Saturday, drawing national concern. The note reportedly included two deadlines, with the first set for Thursday at 5:00 p.m. Arizona time. As of now, there is no proof of life or direct contact from the alleged kidnappers, and the search continues.<br \/>\n&#8211; Sheriff Chris Nanos said they still believe Nancy is alive and urged the kidnappers to bring her home. FBI Phoenix Special Agent in Charge Heith Janke emphasized that doing the right thing would be to contact the family, noting Nancy\u2019s need for vital medication and warning that the situation could worsen if timely action isn\u2019t taken. Investigators indicated the ransom letter included details about Nancy\u2019s home that would support its authenticity, though the person who sent it has not made further contact.<br \/>\n&#8211; Savannah Guthrie and other family members posted pleas on social media asking the captors to reach out so the family can communicate and move forward. The report mentions a second deadline was expected on Monday<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2565868,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Ben-Working-Feature-Image-2026-02-05T213645.062.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[15402,73100,73101],"class_list":["post-2565867","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-deadline","tag-nancyguthrie","tag-ransomnote"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Ben-Working-Feature-Image-2026-02-05T213645.062.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2565867","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2565867"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2565867\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2565871,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2565867\/revisions\/2565871"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2565868"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2565867"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2565867"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2565867"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
