…this story has obviously been ongoing since Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance…and it’s being investigated as a possible abduction, with not only signs that Nancy was taken from her home but that she may also have been harmed in the process…the lady is 84yrs old and requires daily medication …and if it was an abduction then are there any attempts to negotiate her return…?…it’s all very bizarre and hugely distressing for all who know her…


The disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of Today show cohost Savannah Guthrie, is being investigated as a possible abduction, authorities say.

Nancy Guthrie was last seen at her home just north of Tucson on Jan. 31 at about 9:30 p.m., according to the Pima County Sheriff’s Department. Her family reported her missing at 11 a.m. on Feb. 1 after she did not show up for church.

At a press conference on Tuesday, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said that after processing her home, investigators believe Nancy Guthrie, who lives alone, was abducted.

“Nancy was taken from her home against her will,” he said. “We don't know where she is.”

Hours after the press conference, the sheriff’s department acknowledged reports of a possible ransom note regarding Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance on X. “We are taking all tips and leads very seriously. Anything that comes in goes directly to our detectives who are coordinating with the FBI,” the post said, adding a QR code for any information or tips to be shared.

He also told CBS News that a local TV news station had received a ransom note on Monday containing specific details about the night of Guthrie’s disappearance. Investigators have analyzed the note and are taking it seriously, he told the network.

Later on Tuesday, FBI Director Kash Patel said federal law enforcement had been made aware of the possible ransom note. "The local authorities notified the FBI of it, and we are working with them in any manner they choose," he told Fox News.

The FBI is assisting local police in the investigation, providing analytical and technical support.

“We are looking at this from every angle but need your help,” said Jon Edwards, assistant special agent in charge of the FBI field office in Tucson. “Every lead and tip is important.”

According to the Associated Press, investigators “found signs of forced entry” at the home. Nancy Guthrie’s personal belongings, including her cellphone, wallet and car, were left behind.

Speaking to reporters on Monday, the sheriff said she has limited mobility and would not have been able to leave her home on foot. “We know she didn’t just walk out of there,” he said. “She couldn't walk 50 yards by herself."

But Nanos also stressed that she has no cognitive issues and, according to her family, is still of “great sound mind.”

Annie Guthrie, Savannah’s older sister, was the last person to see Nancy Guthrie before she was reported missing, Nanos told Us Weekly. Annie Guthrie told authorities that the family took Nancy Guthrie home from dinner on Saturday night and did not notice any “red flags” about her mom’s behavior that evening.




The Los Angeles Times reported that blood was found in Nancy Guthrie’s home. Nanos told People magazine that investigators "have taken what we believe is biological DNA-type evidence and we are submitting it to our labs."

The sheriff said that Nancy Guthrie needs daily medications and that the situation could become life-threatening if she goes without them for more than 24 hours.

"It is a race against time, and I hope that window hasn’t closed," he told NBC News.

Nanos also issued a plea to her potential abductor.

“Just call us. Let her go,” he said. “The family will tell you, there’s no questions asked here."

In a post on Instagram late Monday night, Savannah Guthrie asked people to continue to pray for her mother's safe return home.

"Raise your prayers with us and believe with us that she will be lifted by them in this very moment," she wrote. "We need you."

A motive for Nancy Guthrie’s possible abduction remains unclear, and authorities don’t know whether she was targeted. When asked by reporters if Savannah Guthrie has received any threats herself, Nanos replied that her security team is in touch with the sheriff’s department. “We’re not going to dismiss any angles for sure, but right now immediately, we don’t know of anything like that,” he said.

On a missing persons flier distributed by the sheriff’s department, Nancy Guthire is described as 5 feet 5 inches tall, with brown hair, blue eyes and weighing around 150 lbs. It’s unclear what type of clothing she was wearing when she disappeared.

The sheriff’s department is offering a reward of up to $2,500 for “information leading to the arrest of the person or persons involved in the disappearance.”

The first demand is today 5PM


They are taking the ransom note seriously

[Ammi]

…fake ransom demands were always going to be a problem in this world of too easy to fake that we live in…there has been more than one ransom demand…I believe that the one being investigated/authenticated atm is for bitcoin which is unusual because it’s so highly traceable…it’s been 6 days now since Nancy Guthrie went missing, it’s all highly strange and a nightmare situation for the family…

…it is being taken seriously, the authorities also seem to be quite sure that Nancy Guthrie is still alive and yet no proof of life has been provided so far as is being reported…I wonder why a demand would be for bitcoin, which is very traceable…

[Ammi]

…it all feels very odd/off, doesn’t it…I do hope that she hasn’t been harmed and that she’s returned to receive any medical care very soon…

Family involvement, the two sitting either side of Savannah when she was making her appeal looked unsettling

[Nancy Guthrie's kidnapper disconnected her
doorbell camera to test if it would prompt
a response from police, NBC Today's
crime expert has suggested.

The 84-year-old, whose daughter is
Today Show host Savannah Guthrie,
vanished from her $1 million Tucson,
Arizona home last weekend.

Authorities think she was taken against her will.

Guthrie's doorbell camera was disconnected
at 1.47am Sunday,
which NBC National Law Enforcement
& Intelligence Correspondent Tom Winter says
is a 'critical moment' in her case.]

…I mean, I just don’t understand after 6 days why a ransom hasn’t yet been demanded if to extort money was the purpose of taking her…she’s obviously elderly and in need of medication so the longer she was without that medication then the more at risk she would be …and that would take away any reasoning of ransom demands being met in a situation of her health being at risk…?..it just isn’t making sense to me, we’re obviously missing some details/information, surely…the family have asked for proof of life and the authorities seem to think that Nancy is still alive so after 6 days, why have the family not been given that proof of life if it was possible to do so…?….

…I’m not suggesting any involvement with the family, just that it doesn’t feel as though ransom is the reason for taking her…

[arista]

Some think she maybe in Mexico

Why the FBI have no one

[Maru]

I don't care about the spectacle. I just hope she is found safe and sound.

[arista]

They still do not know if she is alive?

[Officials say Nancy, 84, is frail and has poor mobility,
and suffers from a heart condition
that requires her to take medication daily]


[A 'vehicle of interest' has been identified in the ongoing search
for missing Nancy Guthrie after investigators said a second
'ransom note' was sent to a local news station.
The developments came late Friday as a message was sent
to Tucson news outlet KOLD, appearing to be sent by the same
people who claimed to be holding the 84-year-old for ransom.

Soon after the letter was sent, an FBI forensics team descended
on Nancy's home, and aerial images taken by the
Daily Mail show teams unloading gear to seize new evidence.]
