“今日”秀联合主持人萨凡纳·古思里的一段视频呼吁,让人们得以窥见其家人在焦急寻求失踪母亲南希·古思里(Nancy Guthrie)回归时的策略。
在周三晚间发布到社交媒体的一段视频中,萨凡纳·古思里与其兄弟姐妹向可能绑架了他们母亲的人(或人)表示,他们“准备对话”,并恳求:“请与我们联系。”
哥伦比亚广播公司新闻“犯罪与公共安全部门”的高级协调制片人安娜·谢克特(Anna Schecter)表示,这一呼吁可能是“孤注一掷的努力”,因为家人尚未与可能劫持了84岁的南希·古思里的人建立沟通渠道。
“这是一个绝望的呼吁,旨在与劫持者建立沟通,”谢克特周四在《哥伦比亚广播公司早间新闻》中说道。
谢克特指出,萨凡纳·古思里的声音语气很突出,她希望展现出值得信赖的形象,“表达‘我在这里是为了对话,我们愿意倾听’”。
“这是一种接受性的姿态,”谢克特说,“他们希望与劫持者进行接触。”
据谢克特透露,美国联邦调查局(FBI)通常会审核此类信息,并参与其发布的时机。这段视频是在南希·古思里被报失踪四天后、有关可能存在赎金字条的报道出现两天后发布的。
谢克特表示,这段视频信息似乎是对那封字条的回应,萨凡纳·古思里在视频中提到了该字条。
“我们也听到了媒体关于赎金信的报道,”萨凡纳·古思里说,“作为一个家庭,我们正在尽一切努力。我们准备好对话。然而,我们生活在一个声音和图像容易被操纵的世界里。我们需要毫无疑问地确认她还活着,并且你们拥有她。我们希望听到你们的声音,我们也准备好倾听。”
谢克特将其描述为“人质谈判情况下典型的FBI策略”,称“你希望与劫持者建立融洽关系”。
萨凡纳·古思里还直接向她的母亲喊话,在视频中她形容母亲善良、忠诚、忠实且充满深情。
“她很有趣、勇敢且聪明,”萨凡纳·古思里说,“她有一群深爱着她的孙辈,他们围着她,用吻覆盖她。她热爱乐趣和冒险。她是一位忠实的朋友。她充满善意和智慧。和她交谈,你就会明白。”
前FBI特工凯瑟琳·施维特(Katherine Schweit)表示,这段视频呼吁部分是为了将南希·古思里人性化,并触动任何劫持她的人的情感心弦,“希望他们明白,家人并不在乎钱,家人在乎的是人本身”。
施维特在2003年曾处理过一起类似案件:一名威斯康星州的老年妇女被绑架、索要赎金,最终在五天后获释。
她周四在《哥伦比亚广播公司早间新闻》中表示,在这个案件中,“每个人都在尽最大努力疯狂工作”。
有数百人在处理此案,“我们将满怀希望”南希·古思里能被活着找到,她说。

What Savannah Guthrie’s video plea may reveal about family’s strategy in trying to bring mother Nancy home
February 5, 2026 / 12:53 PM EST / CBS News
A video appeal by “Today” show co-host Savannah Guthrie gives insight into the family’s strategy as they desperately seek the return of their missing mother, Nancy Guthrie.
In a video posted to social media Wednesday night, Savannah Guthrie and her siblings tell their mother’s possible abductor – or abductors – that they are “ready to talk” and urge: “Please, reach out to us.”
Anna Schecter, the senior coordinating producer for CBS News’ Crime and Public Safety Unit, said the plea could be “a Hail Mary pass” because the family hasn’t established a line of communication with whoever may have taken 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie.
“This is a desperate plea to establish communication with the captors,” Schecter said on “CBS Mornings” Thursday.
Schecter said the tone of Savannah Guthrie’s voice stood out and that she wanted to appear trustworthy, “to say, ‘I’m here to talk, we are here to listen.’”
“It was a receptive position,” Schecter said. “They want to engage the captor.”
The FBI would typically vet a message like this and be in on the timing of its release, according to Schecter.The video was posted four days after Nancy Guthrie was reported missing and two days after reports emerged of a possible ransom note.
The video message, Schecter said, looks like a response to that note, which Savannah Guthrie mentioned in the video.
“We, too, have heard the reports about a ransom letter in the media,” Savannah Guthrie said. “As a family, we are doing everything that we can. We are ready to talk. However, we live in a world where voices and images are easily manipulated. We need to know without a doubt that she is alive and that you have her. We want to hear from you, and we are ready to listen.”
Schecter described it as “classic FBI tactics in a type of hostage negotiation situation,” saying, “You want to establish a rapport with the captor.”
Savannah Guthrie also directly addressed her mom, who she described in the video as kind, faithful, loyal and fiercely loving.
“She is funny, spunky and clever,” Savannah Guthrie said. “She has grandchildren that adore her and crowd around her and cover her with kisses. She loves fun and adventure. She is a devoted friend. She is full of kindness and knowledge. Talk to her and you’ll see.”
Former FBI agent Katherine Schweit said the video appeal was designed, in part, to humanize Nancy Guthrie and pull on the heartstrings of whoever has her, “hoping that they understand that the family doesn’t care about the money. The family cares about the person.”
Schweit worked on a similar case back in 2003 where an elderly woman in Wisconsin was kidnapped, held for ransom and eventually freed after five days.
She said Thursday on “CBS Mornings” that in this case, “everybody is working as frantically as they can.”
There are hundreds of people working on the case, and “we’re going to hold out hope” that Nancy Guthrie is found alive, she said.
