Reports from the New York Post and Breitbart describe the February 1 abduction of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie from her Tucson home, followed by two ransom notes sent from the same IP address. Only the second note's claim that Guthrie had died and been buried is supported across both outlets; all other details remain unverified. Savannah Guthrie made a public plea on the Today show while stating she is not involved in NBC coverage.
