The manhunt for 84-year-old ‘vulnerable adult’, Nancy Guthrie, is soon to be entering its third week, and the officials still have no leads about where she could potentially be. Nancy, the mother of popular NBC anchor Savannah Guthrie, was taken from her Arizona home against her will between January 31 and February 1, 2026. With a fruitless manhunt to bring her home, officials and outlets have been receiving ransom notes claiming to have information about Nancy. On the 13th day of the search, TMZ received a third email from the alleged informer.
What’s in the new email?
On February 13, 2026 (ET), TMZ received yet another email from an anonymous sender who claims to know the alleged abductor. This time, however, the sender has upped their previous price demand. The outlet reported that the alleged informer now wants his fee increased from 1 Bitcoin to USD 100,000. The sender says he doesn’t trust law enforcement and hence uses them as an intermediary. The sender allegedly wrote:
“You don’t trust me, and I don’t trust you.”
