Nancy Guthrie’s security footage reveals new clue about kidnapper as desperate search continues
Authorities searching for Nancy Guthrie are investigating a new clue in the chilling doorbell camera footage of her alleged abductor uncovered last week.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos told NBC News on Tuesday that the security clips may have revealed a pinky ring on the kidnapper’s hand beneath their glove.
“I look at the same photo you look at [of the person seemingly tampering with Guthrie’s camera], and I get it,” the official told the outlet. “I see it.”

He added, “I’m going to give that to my team. They’ll look at that. They’ll analyze it and we’ll see. Maybe it is [a ring].”
The possibility comes amid a major blow to the case, more than two weeks into Savannah Guthrie’s mom vanishing from her Tucson, Ariz., home.
Although officials discovered a glove matching the one the suspect wore two miles from the 84-year-old’s residence, DNA on it did not match records in the FBI’s Combined DNA Index System (CODIS) database.
“I’m going to give that to my team,” the official said on Tuesday. “They’ll look at that. They’ll analyze it.” FBI

The glove, which was initially tested in Florida, was retested in Arizona — with no hits either time.
Nanos shared the disappointing news via X, clarifying that “the DNA found at the property is being analyzed & further testing needs to be done as part of the investigation.”
That DNA, Nanos revealed Friday, does not belong to anyone “close” to Nancy.

In the most recent, the Daytime Emmy winner pleaded, “It is never too late to do the right thing. … We believe in the essential goodness of every human being.”
Page Six heard Savannah’s friends “fear” for her after watching the “profoundly disturbing” social media upload since “it looked like the light has gone out of her eyes.”
One pal shared, “She looks devastated. She looks like she’s struggling. She can’t be doing well.”
