AZ Nancy Guthrie, 84, (mother of TODAY Show host Savannah Guthrie) missing - last seen in the Catalina foothills area on Jan 31, 2026

There has been valuable information on pacemakers shared in this thread. I have a question regarding the automatic connection of a pacemaker to Wi-Fi when the wearer leaves their home. Does a pacemaker automatically connect to Wi-Fi at the destination location?

Also 9:30PM is a late time for an 84 year old woman to be out and about.

I thought that, too, but I guess it varies. I’m a lot younger and mostly fall asleep around 9:00. My late mother couldn’t make it past 8:00. But some elders are night owls.

I

agree

Imo it's possible the front door scene was not immediately discovered by family. When I visit my own mother, I never go in the front door. I go to the side door into the family room, and you can't see the ground at the front doorstep from there. If she was gone, I'd be more focused initially on looking inside the whole house, and then out back. The front formal entry wouldn't be high on my list of places mom might have gotten into trouble. Jmo.

I like this…because one might smear the blood drops on the ground if they just walked up to the door without looking down. The blood droplets were not walked on or through. Now IF they infact saw the blood and still hesitated to call police, especially if blood inside as well….thats a problem for me.

So because she had work done on her house one time that means... what exactly?

I think potentially it means that someone would have had access to her house to do work on it, and possibly it could theoretically mean that this person had access to her at some point. I'm thinking of Elizabeth Smart, whose family had people working on their home and then the unthinkable happened with someone who had done work for them ended up harming her. That's possibly the line of thought, IMO

The fact that she has a pacemaker is actually helpful.

The company should be able to remotely monitor her heart rhythm/data since her phone was left at the home (assuming she has the smartphone app) and share that info with LE.

JMO.

My mom has a pacemaker that is monitored by phone but she/we call in or accept a call from the monitoring company. I don’t think they can simply access her pacemaker for data at any moment, like if she was at dinner with friends. But hers is not new so I don’t know if newer pacemakers and/or AICD’s may have that capability.

I asked about this on an earlier post but don’t recall seeing anyone respond.

what Banfield put out is very risky and could really make her and her sources look bad.

I mean, AB's been around plenty long enough to know the legal ramifications of defamation/slander/libel.

Did she say qualify her statements about the SIL with "allegedly, reportedly" to cover herself?

If not, she must either really, really, really trust her source or be really, really, really desperate for cash, or both.

JMO.

Good news is....if in fact the home used NEST cameras...they are only cloud based....they do not offer a SD card version.

Yes, but they are limited to 3 hours of cloud event recording unless they pay for the 30 day or 60 day plan subscription. It's interesting that the Sheriff says they are still waiting on Nest/Google to provide the footage. If Nancy was paying for a subscription I would think the family members would have access to it and be able to view the footage right away. I don't think many 84 year old disabled women are installing and setting up their own security cameras.

Realtor.com shows home was on the market October 2024 and taken off the market. Last month, electrical work was done on the home that required permits (https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/M2579120168)

I thought i read the backdoor was broken like in forced entry? Not sure but if they didn't go through the front door but through the back door then surely they would have noticed such a thing?

Not everyone keeps the same hours, many are night owls
Seems so odd to dictate what is late to any age group?

I was about to say the same thing. My mom is 78 and she is just getting started at 930pm. She is up until at least 2am every night.

Savannah Guthrie’s sister and brother-in-law were photographed for the first time since her mom, Nancy Guthrie, disappeared from her home.

Annie Guthrie and Tommaso Cioni kept a low profile during their drive on Tuesday, in pictures obtained by Page Six.

Savannah’s sibling attempted to cover her face with a pink hoodie while leaving the couple’s Tucson, Ariz., residence.

Yea this is what I was thinking and meaning thank you for assisting to clarify. This does happen. People are hired and then take advantage of an opportunity. I just wasn’t sure if this was discused and found it possibly valuable.

Interesting, I wonder why? House too big for one person? Maybe move closer to Savannah?

I’m always wary of judging peoples looks whilst they are only a suspect. This comes from closely following the Joanna Yates case.
Christopher Jeffries in the Joanna Yates’ - he was basically tried and found guilty by the media for looking ‘scary’ and eccentric - turns out he had absolutely nothing to do with her murder and the media had to pay all sorts of compensation to him.

Yes, I agree, and this is not directed at you or at anyone in particular, but I also dislike judging the looks of the confirmed perpetrator. For one thing, it's mean, and it feeds a certain mindset that people in general should please us with their looks.

For another thing, what about the person who looks similar to - or loves someone who looks similar to - the perp, who is having their appearance torn to shreds by strangers? How would it feel to know that so many people think your (or your loved one's) appearance is evil, disgusting, revolting, nauseating, etc.?

I do understand forming initial conclusions based on mannerisms, facial expressions, manner of dress, and so on. But I don't understand judging people on their weight, wrinkles, bags under their eyes, color of their eyes, or cut of their hair.

And to be clear, I feel the same way about a perp or victim categorized as beautiful, etc. One way to see this with new eyes is to imagine the news anchor announcing that "Up next, police are investigating the murder of an ugly teenage girl..."

I think these crimes and disappearances carry enough weight on their own, that we don't need attractiveness qualifiers to tell us how to feel.

As Bertrand Russell said, 'In all affairs it's a healthy thing now and then to hang a question mark on the things you have long taken for granted."

Now, let's find Nancy! What is everyone thinking with regard to whether she is still alive? I am hopeful and have all my fingers crossed.

All MOO

Hopefully he's correct, but only time will tell.

Looks like she tried to sell it in 07 also.

It was TMZ that said that the front door was kicked in, but the pictures posted didn’t show any damage to me. Maybe it was the back door? I don’t know if I came to my mom’s house and found the door kicked in, if I would go in? I’d want to, but would be afraid. I’d be call 911 immediately. I would think there’s cameras working in the area at 11am Sunday morning and would verify the time of arrival/departure etc.

 

[keek]

I don't live alone, but when someone knocks on the door when I am alone, I shout, "TOM! Someone is at the door!" to give the impression a man is in the house. I also have done that outdoors when I felt like a creep was creeping me - I shouted and waved to nobody in the distance, "TOM! I'm here - I'll be right there!" or something like that - use a big voice even it you feel like a fool.

Disclosure: Tom is my cat's name.

Tom.. hahah.. cutest name though.

Can i ask, is pagesix considered a sketchy source or a legitimate one?

They are mostly a celebrity gossip/entertainment column, and they are big on clickbait sensational headlines. I would take anything they report on with a boulder of salt.

Hey Everyone.
We need to shut this thread down for just a bit. I have to look into something about the Ashleigh Banfield report regarding Nancy Guthrie's son-in-law as a suspect. Then I will come back and tell you what I found.
IT WON'T BE LONG. I PROMISE.
