Authorities have released a significant update in the ongoing case of missing 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie. Nancy, the mother of Today show host Savannah Guthrie, has been missing since January 31, when she was last seen being dropped off at her home near Tucson, Arizona. Over the past weeks, the case has drawn national attention, with multiple people detained for questioning, but she has yet to be located.
Law enforcement officials have been examining evidence, including a glove found near Guthrie’s residence. The glove appears to match the type worn by a suspect captured on the home’s doorbell camera, raising questions about the individual’s connection to her disappearance. Investigators have stressed, however, that no conclusive link has been confirmed at this time.
Importantly, authorities have now officially cleared Nancy Guthrie’s family of any involvement. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos emphasized that the family, including all siblings and spouses, are considered victims, not suspects. “The family has been nothing but cooperative and gracious,” Nanos said. “To suggest otherwise is not only wrong, it is cruel. The Guthrie family are victims plain and simple.”
Earlier reports indicate that law enforcement was “leaning away” from considering family members as possible suspects, underscoring their cooperative role throughout the investigation. The FBI has also increased the reward for information regarding Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance from $50,000 to $100,000. Authorities continue to urge anyone with relevant information to come forward. The public and media have expressed support for the Guthrie family during this difficult time, with many hoping for a safe return and resolution to this troubling case.
