Nancy Guthrie, 84, mother of Today show co-anchor Savannah Guthrie, was last seen around 9:45 p.m. on Jan. 31, 2026, when she was dropped off at her home in Tucson’s Catalina Foothills after dinner at her daughter Annie’s house. The next day she missed her church service, and her family reported her missing around noon.

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said early on that she had not left on her own and that a crime had likely occurred. Her doorbell camera disconnected at about 1:47 a.m. on Feb. 1. A camera detected a person about 25 minutes later, but she had no recording subscription, so no footage was saved. Her pacemaker lost contact with its phone app that morning, and blood on the front porch matched her DNA. She has limited mobility and needs daily medication.

On Feb. 10, the FBI released images recovered from “residual data located in backend systems.” They show a masked person in gloves and a backpack, apparently with a holstered gun, tampering with the doorbell camera and covering it with a plant pulled from the yard. A man was detained for questioning that night and released. Ransom notes sent to news outlets were never verified, and a California man was arrested on suspicion of sending a fake one.

The FBI offers up to $50,000 and the family up to $1 million for her recovery. As of autumn 2026, she had not been found and no suspect had been publicly named.
