TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) \u2014 \u201cToday\u201d show host Savannah Guthrie made an emotional appeal to viewers Tuesday to come forward with any information about her missing mother, a day after news organizations said a ransom note received months ago had indicated that she was dead.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are in agony, and we cannot be at peace. … We love our mom. We’ll never stop looking for her,” Guthrie said at the \u201cToday\u201d desk in New York, holding a tissue in her left hand.<\/p>\n

Nancy Guthrie, 84, who lived alone, was reported missing from her Tucson-area home on Feb. 1. The FBI released video more than a week later from a camera outside her front door showing a masked stranger. Her blood was found on the porch, but the case remains unsolved.<\/p>\n

Some media outlets had previously reported receiving ransom notes in the days after Guthrie\u2019s disappearance but had not disclosed the details while the investigation was at an early stage. Guthrie’s family was aware of the notes.<\/p>\n

Tucson TV station KOLD said Monday that it had received two notes, one demanding millions in Bitcoin in exchange for Guthrie\u2019s return and another that said she had died. Separately, CNN cited law enforcement sources in reporting on the contents of the notes.<\/p>\n

CNN said a note indicated that those who kidnapped Guthrie did not mean to kill her but that she died shortly after her disappearance.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don’t have any comment on this story. I’m not involved in our coverage,\u201d Savannah Guthrie said Tuesday, referring to NBC News. \u201cBut I can’t pretend I’m not here. And since I am, I want to just take the opportunity to ask people \u2014 really to beg people \u2014 to come forward. Somebody knows something.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Pima County Sheriff\u2019s Department referred questions about the ransom notes to the FBI, which declined to comment.<\/p>\n

Volunteers and search teams scoured the nearby desert terrain filled with cactuses, bushes and boulders in the weeks after Nancy Guthrie vanished. A group recently conducted a search near the Arizona-Mexico border but didn’t report finding her.<\/p>\n

Savannah Guthrie and her siblings occasionally appeared in social media videos earlier in the saga, urging the public to come forward with tips. She asked people to \u201craise your prayers with us\u201d and acknowledged that her mother might be in heaven dancing \u201cwith our daddy.\u201d<\/p>\n
