Nancy Grace has nothing but empathy for Savannah Guthrie after she sat down for her first TV interview since Nancy Guthrie went missing
Nancy Grace has nothing but empathy for Savannah Guthrie after she sat down for her first TV interview since Nancy Guthrie went missing. “When Savannah was talking — just her face — and she started talking to her mother, when she felt like it was her fault,” Grace, 66, shared in Us Weekly’s exclusive sneak peek of the Tuesday, March 31, episode of Fox News Media’s “Hang Out With Sean Hannity” podcast.
“She said, ‘Oh, Mommy, Mommy, I’m sorry. I am sorry.’ It took me right back to that moment — those horrible moments — when I was lying there in the dark, feeling like howling, because there just were no words — nothing.” In 1979, Grace’s then-fiancé, Keith Griffin, was murdered in Georgia by a disgruntled former coworker. He was 23. The tragedy propelled the TV personality to pursue criminal justice and advocate for families of crime victims. “When my fiancé was murdered, I didn’t even want to say words. I felt like going out in the dark, in the woods, and just howling like an animal,” Grace recalled to podcast host Sean Hannity. “I didn’t have words to say. It was so awful — not just losing him, but to violent crime. Stupid, senseless — for what? For nothing!” Before Savannah, 54, returns to the Today show on Monday, April 6, the journalist sat down with Hoda Kotb for a wide-ranging interview about her mom’s disappearance. In the emotional chat, which aired earlier this month, Savannah recalled the moments she learned her mom had vanished from her Tucson, Arizona, home. A $1 million reward remains available for the recovery of Nancy. “We still don’t know,” Savannah shared when asked what caused Nancy’s disappearance. “Honestly, we don’t know anything.” As Savannah prays for answers and resolution, Grace also took time in her latest podcast appearance to clap back at those criticizing the Guthrie family for how they have handled the highly publicized case. “I’ve noticed a lot of people attacking Savannah. ‘Why didn’t you pay the ransom? Why didn’t you pay sooner? Why didn’t you this, that?’” she said. “There’s no script for what you’re supposed to do. I think Savannah and her brother and sister, Annie and Camron, did everything they were physically able to do at that moment.” While police have not publicly confirmed whether the Guthrie family paid any alleged ransom demands, Grace doesn’t believe Savannah and her siblings did because they never got proof of life. “You and I knew at the beginning something was off, in that the ransom was not requested immediately,” Grace explained. “You take somebody — you want to feed them for a week and then ask for the money? No. You want the money, then you want it to be over with — you want to get the hell out of town.” Anyone with information on Nancy’s disappearance is urged to contact 1-800-CALL-FBI or visit http://tips.fbi.gov.
