As the search for news anchor Savannah Guthrie’s mother enters its tenth day, several sudden developments have reshaped the investigation. Nancy Guthrie, 84, disappeared from her Tucson home on February 1, and for days authorities released little information. On February 10, deputies detained a man during a traffic stop in Rio Rico, about 60 miles south of Tucson, and executed a search warrant at a nearby home after receiving a tip. The man, later identified only as Carlos, was questioned and released, insisting he was innocent and may have only delivered a package to Guthrie’s residence through his job. While the search and detention drew attention, investigators soon revealed a more significant breakthrough.

Authorities also released video from a Google Nest camera outside Guthrie’s home, showing a masked, armed individual tampering with the device before removing it. Although the camera was missing and the homeowner reportedly lacked a cloud storage subscription, investigators still recovered footage, possibly because disconnecting the device prevented the images from being overwritten. Experts disagree on what the footage reveals: some say the suspect appeared inexperienced, while others note the person’s calm behavior suggested prior experience. With no suspect currently in custody, investigators hope the recovered footage will generate new leads as the search for Nancy Guthrie continues.
