After days of stalled developments, the investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie took a notable turn late Friday when authorities returned to her Tucson-area home. Nancy, the mother of Today co-anchor Savannah Guthrie, vanished on January 31 and investigators say she was taken against her will. That evening, police activity intensified as officers searched the property again, restricted nearby streets, and towed a blue SUV from the driveway, though officials did not immediately explain what prompted the renewed action.
The activity coincided with law enforcement reviewing a new message sent to a local news outlet by someone claiming involvement in Nancy’s disappearance. Authorities described it as a message—not a ransom note—and said they are carefully assessing its authenticity. With no suspects publicly identified and a $50,000 FBI reward now offered, the case has shifted from quiet uncertainty to heightened unease as investigators continue to follow emerging leads.
