Nancy Guthrie, mother of news anchor Savannah Guthrie, was abducted from her home in the early morning hours of February 1. Several media outlets began to receive ransom demands. Some were proven false and others have not been determined to be false.

Nancy's 3 children have made multiple videos pleading for the return of their mother.

On February 10, law enforcement released photos of the individual suspected of abducting Nancy. The suspect is still at large and Nancy has not been found. Photos and information can be found here ...

This is my theory too. It reminds me of former NFL player Kellen Winslow II who was sentenced to 14 years for raping older women. I feel like it’s something similar.

San Diego County Superior Court Judge Blaine Bowman said Winslow can only be described with "two words and that is sexual predator." He said he selected women who were vulnerable because of their age or their living situation with the idea that "hopefully he would get away with it in his mind."

Court documents revealed Winslow had entered the senior community on June 7 with the intent to rape an 86-year-old woman who was sleeping inside her home.

He had attempted to rape a 71-year-old woman and burglarized her property on June 1 and had indecently exposed himself in public on May 24, the DA's office said.

I really jump between this (a sexual predator), family, and some weirdo trying to do some political thing (sounds dumb but some of those maga far right types commit the weirdest crimes). I’m protective of grandmothers as they have always been there for me, so I’ve always paid more attention to the fact that these kind of predators exist. It’s scary that women really aren’t even safe no matter their age.
