Federal and state law enforcement in Arizona are still looking for Nancy Guthrie, the mother of NBC News anchor Savannah Guthrie. There’s hope that a found glove may contain DNA from a potential suspect.
So she interviewed the Epstein survivors and then her mom got kidnapped?
The FBI are lead by the dumbest people. It’s christmas for criminals, you could steal city hall
Or they’re behind it because they don’t want the survivors interviews to be released
The thing that is baffling to me about this is why the Guthries? If this is as sophisticated as it seems, then why a well known journalist? There are hundreds or thousands more targets with way more money and/or clout from a social standpoint. This just seems like a weird target.
I saw someone say in another comment on a different article that she did some of the first investigating into Epstein stuff? Is this purely a political threat and warning to others?
There is something fundamental missing about this case that the media is not reporting. Kidnapping is rare and never works to get money, but that was before Kash Patel’s FBI.
Why? There’s radicalization about mass/traditional media all over. Even here. But, it’s especially virulent by those in fascist cults vulnerable to any truth. Targeting the family members of a known media personality, especially if you’re in the area or have easy enough access. It’s just low hanging fruit.
It may turn out it was completely random. It may just be an acquaintance or even a family member. It could be politically motivated. Right now I’m not sure who knows. It sucks that all abductions don’t get this sort of coverage. There’s been thousands abducted of the streets by roving fascist paramilitary gangs that are getting near zero coverage. But at the end of the day I would wish that she and all of them would be returned home safe soon. But we’re gonna have to do way more than wish for most of them sadly.
Does anyone else just like…not care about this?
Yeah, not to sound crass. Like I wish the best of luck in a safe return and all. But this is not something that the news should be fixating on and constantly spamming.
There is way bigger shit going on right now.
I don’t care at all but it’s been at the top of Google News headlines for weeks. I saw a story today with the headline that the police chief said someone somewhere knows the perpetrator. A completely worthless statement making headline news because the victim is white and related to someone on TV.
I find it difficult to believe that this kidnapping is the only one in progress and also sufficiently more important (than the other kidnappings) to justify the additional news coverage.
But, my heart does go out to her family and other loved ones.
No. I may have limited bandwidth for this. But my heart goes out to her and her family… It’s something no one would want to imagine happening. Even if plenty others often go missing with a fraction of the visibility this case of getting.
Not sure why this is worth so much substantial resource dedication than every other kidnapping/human trafficing incident.
Mildly famous white woman.
Yeah I mean, at the very least her family is going to be materially okay. I’d be more concerned about a family in Mexico that’s just struggling to scrape by and suddenly lost half their income and are about to be thrown into the street.
Does anyone else just like…not care about this?
If you see how common kidnapping for ransom is in some other countries, and that now it is appearing in a nation where it was rare before, that should be concerning to most.
If the kidnappers are not found from this one, I would expect other copycats to start the same practice.
The FBI used to be good. Now they are a joke like every other branch.
