The search for Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of NBC journalist Savannah Guthrie, has expanded to Mexico after she went missing from her Tucson, Arizona home on January 31st. US investigators have reportedly contacted Mexican authorities and a Mexican non-profit specializing in missing persons cases has been asked to assist. While authorities have not confirmed any specific leads pointing to Mexico, the FBI has notified Mexican officials of Guthrie's disappearance as a standard practice in border-adjacent cases. Investigators are sifting through 40,000 leads, and family members have been ruled out as suspects. A ransom note demanding $6 million in cryptocurrency has been received by TMZ and forwarded to the FBI.
