newsJun 22, 202649210

A second ransom note sent to a Tucson TV station said Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of NBC "Today" anchor Savannah Guthrie, died shortly after her Feb. 1 abduction from her Arizona home. Investigators say the second note contained an apology and did not demand payment, and authorities say both notes were sent from the same computer IP address as part of an FBI-led probe. The note shifts the inquiry toward a possible homicide and raises urgency for investigators to locate suspects and any remains.
