Nancy Guthrie Update: The case just took a dramatic turn — shocking new information has surfaced, and only 10 minutes ago the FBI issued an urgent summons for her daughter to come in for immediate questioning.

The search for Nancy Guthrie, the mother of Today show host Savannah Guthrie, is nearing the one-month mark and authorities have still yet to identify the suspect(s) in the case. A $1 million reward has been offered by the Guthrie family for information that results in the whereabouts of their missing family member.

As the 84-year-old remains missing, both the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Pima County Sheriff’s Department made sudden changes to their personnel.

FBI, Pima County Sheriff’s Department Cut Back on Officers

Earlier this week, after a final search of the Guthrie home, the FBI withdrew most of its officials and investigators from Tucson, sending them to Phoenix. Just two days later, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department followed suit, pulling additional officers off the case.

“This remains an active investigation and will continue until Nancy Guthrie is located or all leads have been exhausted,” the statement read. “The Pima County Sheriff’s Department is refocusing resources to detectives specifically assigned to this case. As leads are developed and resolved, resource allocation may fluctuate. PCSD will maintain a patrol presence in the Guthrie neighborhood.”

While that seemed like an ominous sign for the case, NewsNation’s Brian Entin explained.

Why FBI, Pima County Sheriff’s Department Likely Moved Personnel

Entin believes the FBI moving back to Phoenix “makes sense” due to the overwhelming amount of video evidence they need to pour over.

“The fact they’re going back to Phoenix doesn’t really surprise me, and I don’t think it impacts the investigation that much. It just doesn’t feel that active in Tucson. They are still going to keep a contingent of FBI agents on the ground here in Tucson,” he said.

“In terms of the Pima County Sheriff’s Office, I’m told they are still keeping a number of detectives on the case, but it won’t be all the detectives like it was.”

The Guthrie family recently took action by appearing to install a new security system in the 84-year-old’s home following a final sweep from the FBI.

🚨 Just as the world prepared to close the book on the CJNG’s leader, a mother’s voice has reopened the case. Mexican authorities reportedly handed over the remains of El Mencho to his family, only for his mother to stall the funeral with a stunning claim: the man in the box is a double.  Forensic experts are now facing a crisis of credibility. Was the “final raid” a carefully choreographed play to let a dying man vanish for good? If he’s still out there, the hunt hasn’t ended—it’s just become much more dangerous. 🛡️👣  IS HE STILL ALIVE? See the leaked “sighting” reports and the mystery of the body double in the comments below. 👇
When El Mencho fell, headlines declared the end of a kingpin. But what if the real power was never just his?  After the death of Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, leader of the Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación, attention turned to gun battles, turf wars, and who would grab control next.  But behind the violence was another figure: his wife, Rosalinda González Valencia, often called “La Jefa.”  Authorities have alleged she helped oversee businesses, property, and financial networks tied to the cartel’s money flow — the economic engine that keeps an empire alive long after the gunfire fades.  Because cartels aren’t sustained by bullets alone. They’re sustained by money. By family ties. By quiet governance behind the scenes.  So when a kingpin dies, does the empire really fall? Or does the real power simply shift out of sight?
Living near a nuclear power plant may be linked to higher cancer death rates, according to a major new study.  Researchers from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, publishing in Nature Communications, analyzed nearly two decades of data and found that U.S. counties closer to operational nuclear plants had higher cancer mortality rates than those farther away.  Even after adjusting for income, smoking, obesity, race, and access to hospitals, the pattern remained.  The study estimates that about 115,000 cancer deaths between 2000 and 2018 were associated with proximity to nuclear plants — roughly 6,400 per year.  Researchers stress this does not prove causation. But the findings land at a moment when leaders across the political spectrum are pushing to rapidly expand nuclear energy nationwide.  So what exactly did the data show?
