Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of broadcaster Savannah Guthrie, is likely no longer alive, according to a prominent former FBI profiler.
Jennifer Coffindaffer, a former FBI special agent who served for 25 years, has been monitoring the case with professional scrutiny. Speaking in broadcast interviews, the retired agent suggested the investigation into the abduction has moved beyond simple kidnapping. She argued that the language used in subsequent communications indicates the perpetrators are aware of the severity of their position.
