Nancy Guthrie Case Update: The investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie is in its fourth month, and investigators are still scrambling to find a suspect in the case despite hundreds of leads. Nancy, the 84-year-old mother of NBC’s “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie, went missing on January 31, 2026, and was reported missing on February 1, 2026, prompting an intense investigation led by Pima County sheriff Chris Nanos and later joined by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
As the investigation continues, the Guthrie family, who offered a reward of around $1 million for any piece of information on Nancy, is facing a difficult time with Savannah, who returned to the “Today" show on April 6, 2026, after a two-month hiatus, trying to juggle between her personal and professional life.
With Mother’s Day approaching, the period has become especially heartbreaking for the Guthrie family, as hopes of her safe return continue to fade. Mother’s Day falls on Sunday, May 10, and ahead of the holiday, someone left a message outside of Nancy Guthrie’s home.
On Friday, May 8, Michael Ruiz of Fox News shared an update at the crime scene. “Someone placed this Mother’s Day message outside Nancy Guthrie’s home, addressed to her abductor,” he stated on X. Then, he shared the message: “Your mom would be ashamed if she knew what you did. So before you take her flowers on Mother’s Day, TAKE NANCY HOME, or tell the family where she is so they can celebrate on Mothers Day, do the right thing.”
A few days after the Pima County Sheriff's Department (PCSD) launched the search efforts into the abduction case, which was later joined by the FBI, investigators believed that she was taken from her home against her will. Despite hundreds of leads, no suspects have been identified in the case. She was allegedly kidnapped by a masked man in the middle of the night on February 1, 2026.
