India, April 3 -- Savannah Guthrie's emotional "Today" interview has drawn renewed attention to the ongoing search for her mother Nancy Guthrie and could increase pressure on the person responsible for her abduction, a former FBI agent said. Jason Pack told Hoda Kotb during the segment that national coverage, a reported reward, and continued investigation may leave the suspect feeling constant pressure.
