KATONAH, NY — It has been 45 years since Katonah mom Leslie Guthrie and her two small children went missing, but authorities have never stopped looking for answers.
On February 5, 1977, Leslie Guthrie, who was 29 years old at the time, and her two children Julie Guthrie, age 6, and Timothy, age 3, went missing from their home on Grandview Avenue in Katonah and were never heard from again, according to Bedford police officials. They were last seen driving a green 1974 Ford Maverick with a white roof and New York license plates.
The Bedford Police Department Detective Bureau continues to investigate this case in hopes of locating the Guthrie family and their car. Investigators have traveled across the country and followed leads as far away as Japan.
