Savannah Guthrie BEGS with captors to return her mother as she breaks down in tears during gut-wrenching video: 'We are ready to talk'
DailyMail ^ | 02/04/26 | Staff

“ 'We too have heard the reports about a ransom letter in the media. As a family, we are doing everything that we can,' Guthrie said in the clip. Guthrie then said to the potential kidnappers that 'we are ready to talk' but wanted proof that they weren't potentially using fraudulent images of her. 'We live in a world where voices and images and images are easily manipulated. We need to know, without a doubt, that she is alive and that you have her. We want to hear from you and we are ready to listen. Please, reach out to us,' she said through the tears.”

Trump has responded to this with both barrels. I bet she’s been kidnapped by a cartel….read they wanted ransom in bitcoin and I bet they are demanding something from the Trump administration too. Why else pick the mother of a high profile newscaster who’s mother conveniently lives in a border state?

If it’s cartels, I wonder how deep are democrats involved in it?

Reports are that all her life sustaining meds were still in the house and unless she was somehow able to get the medication(s) that she needs, she is most likely no longer alive.

They want to see proof of life and considering it’s so easy to AI generate a person in order to really prove it’s her she has to say something on video that no one else would know except close family like a nickname or something like that

I know what S. Guthrie looks like but if it wasn’t noted that it was Savannah Guthrie in that video, I would not have known who that was.

She looks absolutely wrecked.

Never mind that she obviously doesn’t have her tv face/hair on.

It was mentioned in the prior posting that FOX news was reporting that LEO’S have been to the “other” daughter’s house for a 2nd time, taking items out of the house.

Could be the Sinaloa cartel.
“ The cartel sent demands to the victim’s family in the U.S. and instructed them to deliver the ransom money—separate payments of $100,000 and $40,000—to a Los Angeles business known as QT Maternity. “Our investigation determined that the ransom payment was distributed to 17 other businesses located in the fashion district,” Lewis said. “These stores were used as third-party money launderers in a scheme commonly referred to as the Black Market Peso Exchange.”

What a difference that makes! I wouldn't give her a second glance without make up.

I thought at first it might be the son-in-law too, but then they did the televised plea to the kidnapper/kidnappers.

“ransom payment was distributed”.

Is this an official statement that ransome demanded for this elderly woman has now been paid?
So many parts to this story keep changing. I’m trying to keep up with what’s real and what’s rumor.

The “other” daughter’s husband is not in the plea video.

That is what I first checked.

From the linked article….

Guthrie - surrounded closely by her sister Annie and brother Camron - then directly addressed her mother's possible captors, in the first public admission that she may be held for ransom.

True. But he’s not one of her kids. He IS pretty creepy looking.
I still think Sinaloa cartel has her….probably on the other side of the border.

Did you see this tid-bit from the DM article in reference to the activity at the “other” sister’s house?……

Wednesday's visit came shortly after a detective from an online pedophile unit showed up to talk to the Guthrie family.

Seen outside the house in Daily Mail photos, the man was wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force badge.

The FBI affiliate specializes in combating online grooming and technology enabled child abuse.

.......”Reports are that all her life sustaining meds were still in the house “

That’so sad. Sad tthat she neeeded them to stay alive,, and sad that she couldn’t use them. Not a good situation.

Whoa! The plot thickens.

Hard to connect and old lady’s disappearance with her SIL’s pedophilia, but you never know these days.
