Savannah Guthrie‘s brother Camron Guthrie is issuing an urgent plea to his mom Nancy’s Guthrie‘s alleged kidnappers.
“This is Camron Guthrie. I’m speaking for the Guthrie family. Whoever is out there holding our mother, we went to hear from you,” Camron said in a video posted to Savannah’s Instagram on Thursday, Feb. 5. “We haven’t heard anything directly. We need you to reach out, and we need a way to communicate with you so we can move forward. But first, we have to know that you have our mom. We went to talk to you, and we are waiting for contact.”
The video was posted exactly at 5 p.m. local time in Arizona. During a press conference on Thursday morning, FBI Phoenix Special Agent in Charge Heith Janke said whoever wrote the alleged ransom note sent to various media outlets set a deadline of 5 p.m. that evening, followed by a second deadline on Monday.
It is unclear what the ransom threatened if money was not sent by the given deadlines.
Janke also shared during the press conference that the FBI is offering a $50,000 reward for information that leads to Nancy or the arrest of her captor.

Camron’s video comes one day after he joined Savannah and their sisterAnnie for the family’s first message directed to their mother’s kidnappers. There, the siblings asked for “proof of life”, noting they were “ready to talk” to their mother’s abductor.
At this time, the FBI and the police department have not identified a suspect or person of interest in this case.
The FBI is working on the case and urges anyone with tips or leads to call 1-800-CALL-FBI in addition to the Pima County Sheriff’s Office number, 520-351-4900.
Nancy Guthrie is described as 5-foot-5 and 150 pounds with brown hair and blue eyes.
