Nancy Guthrie Update: Who kidnapped Today show host’s mom? Stalker fears & more

Nancy Guthrie, mom of Today show host Samantha has been missing as of February 1st and a panel of experts just sat down to discuss the potential abductors of the senior citizen.

The entire thing has almost a 92% accuracy rate because almost the entire panel believes, that the abductor knew Nancy in some way, shape, or some form.

One of the experts in questions that shared their thoughts includes, senior national correspondent Brian Entin of NewsNation, and he hosted a number of ex-FBI agents for this special, and had them hypothesize, with their years of expertise, the identity of the person responsible.

Mr Entin spoke to Men’s Journal regarding this and claimed, “our panel in the special said the chances of this being random are incredibly low.”

“They leaned on the statistics, pointing to a 92% likelihood that it was someone who knew Nancy. Not a family member or close friend, but someone she had come into contact with in some way.”

One thing he did make clear in the midst of this was that the authorities currently working to recover the mother and grandmother, “has to work the case with that in mind. So, the person probably did have some kind of connection, and whether that ties back to Savannah Guthrie and her fame is still a question.”

One shocking piece of information that came to light through all this was that the person could potentially be a stalker and regarding this Mr Entin explained, “We don’t know whether it was one or multiple suspects, but the panel seems to think it’s likely more than one person was involved.”
