Nancy Guthrie's disappearance in Tucson, Arizona, is entering a more dangerous phase as the search for the 84-year-old nears the two-week mark. A retired FBI hostage negotiator has warned that newly released images of the suspected kidnapper may be 'losing control' of the balance of the case. Chip Massey said the publication of video footage and photographs has piled fresh pressure on the suspect as investigators continue trying to establish where Nancy is and what condition she may be in.
Nancy, the mother of Today presenter Savannah Guthrie, was last seen on Jan. 31 and reported missing the following day, according to OK! Magazine. Investigators later found a trail of blood outside her Tucson home and ransom notes seeking a substantial Bitcoin payment were sent to media outlets, leaving the case with a clear alleged financial motive but no settled account yet of Nancy's whereabouts.
