Savannah Guthrie’s Mother, Nancy, Goes Missing
Over five months have passed since Today show co-host Savannah Guthrie’s 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie, was reported missing on February 1. To this day, the investigation into her disappearance remains active. Authorities believe she may have been abducted late at night from her home in Tucson, Arizona.
Despite extensive efforts, investigators have not identified any strong suspects or major leads. Family members, friends, and supporters continue raising awareness and sharing her story in the hope that new information will help bring her home safely.
The Search For Nancy Continues
Since Nancy’s disappearance, the case has been extremely complicated and confusing. In the weeks that followed, multiple ransom notes were sent to media outlets, but none have been traced to a prime suspect.
On February 5, Camron Guthrie, brother of Savannah, issued a video plea to those responsible for the disappearance of their mother.
Camron’s video was posted to Savannah’s Instagram account moments after the first of two deadlines mentioned in a ransom note passed.
“Whoever is out there holding our mother, we want to hear from you. We haven’t heard anything directly. We need you to reach out, and we need a way to communicate with you so we can move forward. But first we need to know that you have our mom. We want to talk to you and we are waiting for contact,” Camron said in the video.

A later development in the investigation came when the FBI released photos and videos of a possible suspect outside Nancy’s home the night she vanished. The unsettling footage shows someone wearing a black ski mask, seemingly trying to get inside.
Since then, numerous tips have come in with possible information as to her whereabouts, but nothing has been substantial or proven true.
Just last month, a group dedicated to finding missing people in Mexico reportedly launched a search for Nancy after receiving an anonymous tip claiming she may have been buried in an unmarked grave near the border.
The group allegedly searched the location provided by the tipster, an area where they had previously uncovered 25 unmarked graves. However, the initial search came up dry and the group did not find any signs of Nancy
Sheriff’s Department Warns Of Scams Connected To Nancy Guthrie Case
Now, the Pima County Sheriff’s Office is warning of a potential scam connected to the ongoing case.
Authorities say fraudulent social media posts and emails are circulating with QR codes asking people to donate money for the investigation. Sheriff Chris Nanos stressed that the department will “never” ask the public for money in connection with the Nancy Guthrie case or any criminal investigation.
Officials urge the public not to send money and avoid scanning QR codes requesting payment. Law enforcement continues to ask anyone with credible information about Nancy’s disappearance to contact the FBI or the Pima County Sheriff’s Department directly.
