In Tucson, Arizona, authorities continued searching for Nancy Guthrie as her unsolved case nears six months. A neighbor reported seeing FBI personnel in the brush behind Guthrie’s home, though the Pima County Sheriff’s Department stated no investigators returned recently. The FBI has yet to comment.
Nancy Guthrie, the mother of ‘Today’ host Savannah Guthrie, disappeared on February 1. Authorities suspect she was forcibly taken from her home. Retired Lieutenant Bob Krygier explained why investigators might revisit the area. Possible reasons include new leads or evidence displacement from weather events.
They might be out there for new tips or checking how recent weather changes impacted evidence.
Pima County experienced heavy rains due to monsoon season, potentially shifting its landscape. These changes might have exposed new evidence. Krygier mentioned that water can move rocks, vehicles, and other objects, altering the search area significantly.
Despite the case’s duration, Sheriff Chris Nanos confirmed it is not considered cold. Investigators are still processing thousands of videos. Recently, a pair of ransom notes were released to identify possible linguistic characteristics of the sender.
Rewards exceeding $1.2 million remain available for information leading to resolution. Anyone with details should contact 1-800-CALL-FBI or the anonymous line at 520-88-CRIME.
