Sick twist in Nancy Guthrie case as FBI says ransom notes were fake
All ransom notes linked to missing Arizona woman Nancy Guthrie are believed to be fake, according to senior FBI officials. Several notes were sent to US media outlets soon after her disappearance. Reuters reported that a senior FBI official disclosed the development, with a second official confirming the claim. Nancy Guthrie, 84, is the mother of US television host Savannah Guthrie and has been missing since early February. Savannah Guthrie last week made an on-air appeal for information, saying she remains in agony over her mother’s disappearance. "We are in agony," she said on NBC Today. "We're begging for your help... and so please, if you're watching, no matter how small, a reward is there. You can tell us, it can be anonymous. Please do the right thing for us, for our family for our children." The family is offering a $US1 million reward for information leading to their mother's recovery.
