No public sign of a response to Savannah Guthrie's message to her mother's kidnapper

There has been no public sign of a response to NBC “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie’s message to her mother’s kidnapper. Guthrie says her family is ready to talk. But she says they want proof that Nancy Guthrie is still alive. Guthrie said in a recorded video posted Wednesday on social media that her family has heard media reports about a ransom letter. Authorities believe Nancy Guthrie was taken from her Tucson, Arizona, home against her will. She was last seen Saturday night and reported missing Sunday. Authorities are expected to give an update on their search at a news conference Thursday.
