The footage, sources claim, captures Nancy leaving her house in the early hours — but one unsettling detail in the frame has stopped detectives cold. It’s not just how she left… but what the blood pattern suggests happened next.
A trail of blood was filmed leading from the Arizona home of “Today” show host Savannah Gutherie’s missing mother, shocking new footage shows.
Dark red spatters were seen across the tile outside 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie’s Tucson home in footage captured by NewsNation – matching descriptions of a bloody crime scene sources previously told The Post.
It remains unclear who the blood belongs to, but the footage emerged just hours after an unverified ransom note was sent to TMZ demanding millions of dollars in bitcoin for Nancy’s safe return.

Nancy hasn’t been seen since Saturday evening when one of her kids dropped her at home, and a search was launched the next day when she failed to arrive for church.The search for the missing grandma has grown increasingly desperate as she approached 72 hours with critical medication she needs to take every 24 – and could die without, police have cautioned.
“We don’t know where she is,” Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos conceded at a press conference Tuesday.

“We do believe that Nancy was taken from her home against her will,” he added. “We don’t know if multiple people were involved.”
Nancy’s disappearance was officially declared a criminal investigation Monday, with police saying the scene at her Tucson home was alarming but refusing to elaborate further.
Sources, however, told The Post that blood was found at the home and that items like her phone that she wouldn’t leave the house with were found left behind.
Police have been even more tight-lipped about what they know and don’t, and issued a statement about the supposed-ransom note that did little more than confirm they were investigating it.
“We are aware of reports circulating about possible ransom note(s) regarding the investigation,” Sheriff Nanos said in a statement. “We are taking all tips and leads very seriously.”
That note included a deadline for the payment, and included details it claimed were specific to the crime scene.
Nanos was evasive when pressed on possible ransoms just hours earlier.
“We have all kinds of investigative leads we’re working on,” he told reporters Tuesday.
Ground searches for Nancy are expected to begin scaling back, with Nanos explaining efforts would shift towards investigative avenues.
“She is an 84-year-old woman who went to bed, and sometime in the middle of the night, she was removed from that home and now here 48 plus hours, and this lady needs her medication,” Nanos previously said.
“It’s not good.”
