Trump responds to NBC host Savannah Guthrie’s mom Nancy’s baffling k*dn#pping.
“I think it’s terrible,” Trump said. “I’m going to call [Savannah Guthrie] later on. I think it’s a terrible thing. … Very unusual situation, but we’re going to find out.”
Despite the pair’s showdown in an October 2020 NBC town hall, Trump added, “I always got along very good with Savannah.”
During the Miami town hall, Savannah Guthrie pressed Trump on his administration’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, and his social media reposts questioning Osama bin Laden’s death.
At one point, she accused Trump of “sending a lie” to his followers, comparing him to “someone’s crazy uncle.”
While the Pima County Sheriff’s Department and FBI continue to investigate Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance, officials on Tuesday confirmed they are “aware” of reports of a possible ransom note.
“We are aware of reports circulating about possible ransom note(s) regarding the investigation into Nancy Guthrie,” the sheriff’s office wrote in a statement Tuesday afternoon. “Anything that comes in, goes directly to our detectives who are coordinating with the FBI.”
ews outlets TMZ and KOLD 13 News announced on Tuesday they received unverified ransom notes demanding money for Nancy Guthrie’s return.
The note received by TMZ reportedly demanded millions in Bitcoin cryptocurrency, with the outlet verifying the Bitcoin address was “real.”
TMZ said the letter, which was sent to authorities, included unreleased details about her disappearance and had a deadline.
