And sadly, investigators are no closer to locating Nancy or apprehending her kidnappers.
At this point, it’s widely believed that the 84-year-old mother of Today show anchor Savannah Guthrie is no longer living. And one former FBI agent believes that her captors continued to send ransom notes after her death.

Jennifer Coffindagger is a former federal agent who now provides media coverage on cases such as Nancy’s.
In a recent series of social media posts, Coffindaffer stated that she believes Nancy is no longer alive.
“Law enforcement said they know the motive for the abduction of Nancy and they have known it from the beginning. “Kidnapping for ransom,” she wrote (via Radar Online), adding:
“Nancy sadly died. The kidnappers didn’t care and tortured the family with 2 notes knowing the FBI would not recommend paying a ransom without proof of life.
“Like most cases, this one is simple, but everyone wants to make it complex.”

The family’s requests for proof of life received no response, and as a result, the Guthries did not offer payment.
In a recent interview, Savannah addressed the fact that her family may have been targeted due to her wealth.
“But I knew that,” she told Newsweek. “I hope not. I mean, we still don’t know. Honestly, we don’t know anything.”
Savannah added, “I don’t know that it’s because she’s my mom and somebody thought: ‘Oh, that lady has money, we can make a quick buck.’ I mean, that would make sense, but we don’t know.”

Sadly, it’s looking more and more like the Guthries might never find the closure that they seek.
