\n Savannah Guthrie posted another video<\/a> yesterday saying family members believe her 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie, is \u201cstill out there.\u201d She has previously posted two videos of her with both her siblings and a third featuring only her brother. Each video is different, and experts say they can provide insight into how the case is evolving.\n <\/p>\n \n \u201cThe first two communications from the Guthrie family were appeals to the kidnapper,\u201d said former FBI special agent Ken Gray.\n <\/p>\n \n The first video<\/a> was posted on February 4, four days after Nancy\u2019s disappearance. Savannah Guthrie, flanked by her siblings Annie and Camron, pleaded for their mother to come home.\n <\/p>\n \n \u201cThe first one is to humanize their mother; to try to get contact with them to start negotiations,\u201d Gray said.\n <\/p>\n \n After Cameron\u2019s video the next day, Savannah and her siblings released a second video<\/a> together on February 7, the one-week mark of their mother\u2019s disappearance. In the video, they tell the purported kidnappers they are willing to pay ransom.\n <\/p>\n \n \u201cThe second one is much more shorter \u2013 \u2018Yes, we will pay,\u2019 \u2018We want our mother back,\u2019\u201d Gray said.\n <\/p>\n
