Savannah Guthrie Makes First On-Camera Plea in Search for Missing Mother

The first on-camera appeal is intended to prompt new tips in an investigation with no named suspect.

Overview

  • Savannah Guthrie’s interview preview aired Wednesday on Today, with the full sit-down scheduled to run in two parts on Thursday and Friday.
  • Authorities say 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie was taken from her Tucson home overnight Jan. 31 to Feb. 1, and investigators have not identified a suspect.
  • Key evidence includes images of a masked, apparently armed person at the front door, blood at the home confirmed to be Nancy’s, and reports that her pacemaker stopped transmitting in the suspected abduction window.
  • The Guthrie family is offering a $1 million reward and the FBI has added $100,000, and tips can be directed to 1-800-CALL-FBI or the Pima County Sheriff’s Department at 520-351-4900.
  • Investigators and FBI labs continue forensic work, including advanced DNA testing and genealogical methods, as the high-profile plea seeks to drive fresh leads from the public.
