Savannah Guthrie\u2019s nightmare may already have ended in death. An 84-year-old grandmother, snatched from her own home, suddenly becomes \u201cworthless\u201d the moment her frail body gives out \u2014 and is allegedly dumped like trash. A cold-case expert now believes the kidnappers panicked when their ransom plot collapsed, forcing them to get rid of Nan\u2026<\/p>\n
Detective Brian Martin\u2019s theory is brutally simple: whoever took 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie thought she was an easy payday. They allegedly stormed her Tucson home in the dark, ignoring the blood at the door and the reality of her heart problems, high blood pressure and pacemaker. When her fragile body could no longer withstand the ordeal, the plan, he believes, shifted from ransom to disposal. Dead, she was no longer \u201cof value\u201d to them.<\/p>\n
For Savannah Guthrie, the \u201cToday\u201d show co-anchor who has begged for answers, that possibility is almost unthinkable \u2014 yet it fits the silence that has followed. Sixty-seven days, no calls, no credible ransom demand, no trace. Investigators still insist this is a kidnapping, but Martin\u2019s experience tells him the most likely clue to what happened next is not in a phone record or a note. It\u2019s wherever they chose to leave her, hoping she would never be found.<\/p>\n
