I'm Corey with the story. 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie vanished from her Arizona home on February 1st, and authorities believe she was abducted against her will. The FBI released surveillance videos showing a masked man outside her front door that night. Signs of trouble included her back door propped open, blood on the front step, and her ring camera yanked down. Family members found her phone, purse, and other belongings still inside, which made no sense since Nancy was in severe back pain and couldn't walk. Far on her own, her daughter Savannah Guthrie, the Today Show host, shared these details in a recent emotional interview. Savannah's brother first raised the idea of a kidnapping for ransom, possibly linked to her fame. She wondered aloud of her celebrity status brought danger to her mother's doorstep, leaving her racked with guilt toward her family. Officials checked multiple ransom notes, sent to local media outlets like TMZ and CNN
