JUST MINUTES AGO: Reports Claim Savannah Guthrie Voluntarily Spoke to Police About Her Mother’s Disappearance

TUCSON, Ariz. (KVOA) – The Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) has released a statement on Monday regarding the ongoing case in the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie. This comes after the second deadline in the alleged ransom note passed hours ago.

On Feb. 9, the FBI released a statement saying agents, analysts and professional staff have been working around the clock for more than a week to reunite Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of TODAY show co-anchor Savannah Guthrie, with her family.

“The FBI is not aware of any continued communication between the Guthrie family and suspected kidnappers, nor have we identified a suspect or person of interest in this case at this time,” the FBI said.

Officials stated that additional personnel from FBI field offices across the United States will continue to deploy to Tucson to help with the investigations.

“We are currently operating a 24-hour command post that includes crisis management experts, analytic support, and investigative teams,” the FBI said. “But we still need the public’s help.”

Shortly before the 2 p.m. deadline in the alleged ransom note, Savannah uploaded a message on Instagram asking asking the Tucson community, and those across the country, to send any tips that can help law enforcement in the investigation.

“She was taken and we don’t know where, and we need your help,” Savannah said.

Those who may have information regarding the investigation are urged to contact PCSD at 520-351-4900 or call 9-1-1. Tips can also be sent to the FBI by calling 1-800-CALL-FBI. The FBI is also offering a $50,000 reward for information that can lead to an arrest regarding the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie.

PCSD has established a Tip Line QR code where the public can submit photos or videos directly to PCSD.

Nancy Guthrie is described as 5 foot 5 inches tall, 150 pounds, has brown hair, and has blue eyes. We are told that Nancy Guthrie is in frail health and is without the daily medications she needs to survive. Nanos confirmed the 84-year-old lived alone.

88-CRIME is offering a reward up to $2,500 is being offered for any information that can lead to an arrest or arrests in Guthrie’s disappearance.

PCSD also would like to respectfully reminds everyone that the tip line is for tips and information related to the case, and is not meant for condolences.

The DNA doesn’t lie. A member of Savannah Guthrie’s inner circle has been taken into custody after a definitive forensic match shattered their alibi. Investigators say the evidence found at the scene is the ‘smoking gun’ that turns every previous theory on its head. How do you process a tragedy when the monster is someone you share a table with? As the suspect is processed, the focus shifts from ‘where’ she is to ‘why’ they did it.
Day five of the Ash Haigh search ended with a discovery that has left the Gold Coast in mourning. Authorities have shifted their tone after a figure matching Ash’s description was sighted by a bystander at sea. While official confirmation is pending forensic protocols, the scene on the beach—marked by tears and the sudden halt of police briefings—suggests the worst has been realized. The fishing community has lost one of its own.
