Savannah Guthrie and mother Nancy Guthrie, June 15, 2023. On Friday, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department released details from two ransom notes received by Tucson media in the days after the abduction. The first note, sent on Feb. 2 to Savannah Guthrie, said, “We have your mother Nancy. The second note, sent on Feb. 6 to the Guthrie family, said Nancy Guthrie died and “is buried in nature now,” according to the sheriff’s department.
