## Resource

The FBI is digging into real ransom notes tied to Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance, while dismissing others as scams — all as the search for the mom of “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie continues across Arizona’s desert and border regions. Blood found near her home, surveillance footage of a masked figure, and multiple cryptic notes demanding Bitcoin or claiming her death have fueled an intense, multi-agency investigation. Authorities remain focused on finding her alive, sifting through leads with urgency as both federal and local law enforcement stay on high alert.
