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

[Arkay]

I’m currently halfway through Brian Entin’s special report on Nancy.

At this moment they are showing the intruder at the door, and they’ve circled the gun and holster in red.

I imagine we’ve all had the same thought….if only that crotch gun had misfired and discharged right then.

Sorry to be so nasty, but I really do wish it had disabled him in that way and Nancy lived to tell the tale.

I was more thinking that the dealership may have only sold it in the past few days to the new owner, who then could have ended up being the POI by driving the car that LE were looking for. The dealership has had the car on its books since before NG went missing, from the seems of things, and dropped the price right after her disappearance was discovered, so potentially indicates some desperation in wanting to shift it?

JMO and not 100% what I believe, just sharing thoughts.

Can you tell how old the car is from the dealer website?

It has no GPS, of no use in locating a person.

That was stated & explained by LE in the last week.

I believe they're referring to this, not GPS

Brian Entin on X: "Investigators have used what is called a “signal sniffer.” It is a small device that was sent in and attached to the Sheriff’s helicopter. It can detect Nancy Guthrie’s pacemaker signal. The helicopter has to stay low and move slowly for it to work." / X https://share.google/mxW2QD92ltQ5HRdBI

Still say she wasn't there to be abducted in the first place, it was staged after something happened elsewhere.

You might be right. The guy at the door felt straight out of central casting, way too suspicious. Who actually opens up for someone like that? Something’s definitely hinky.

I believe it's a 2017 Land Rover based on images

Yes I agree there is no GPS, but there is a language (specifically encrypted) only her pacemaker responds to. The range is very limited due to the pacemaker battery…but it can BE FOUND. If that encrypted language is duplicated into LE/FBI phones (replicating NG’s own monitoring devices) and the Bluetooth is boosted to say 50-70’…it could be helpful.

Not buying that about internal cameras, we would have heard about that before now. If even to confirm Nancy was seen inside the house that night. Nonsense IMO.

Ordinarily. I would agree with you. But this investigation? I'm just not sure. I swear Nanos can't give a simple straightforward answer to anything. I'll bet if someone asked him about inside cameras two days in a row, they would get two different answers.

Forgive me if this video was already shared but I highlighted some things that are interesting.

In this interview Sheriff Nanos says they contacted the FBI at 8 or 9 in the morning (I'm assuming Monday morning) when they got done processing the scene.
They asked the FBI for some help with digital evidence.
They gave that evidence to the FBI and sent the rest of the evidence to a lab they have used for 30 to 40 years now.

In regards to the door nest cam footage;
He said, "I think we had them for about two hours and we submitted them to the media."

The gloves found were two miles away from Nancy's home.
The FBI asked him if they should send it to their lab Nanos said No let's send it where all of the other evidence is at so it would all be in one place.

About the claim a glove was found in the house - "Never was found a glove in that house."

About a white "truck" being seen in the area...
"Somebody is working, probably on a lead that came in. Oh, hey, this white truck was sitting in the area."
He said that is not the only vehicle they have been told about in the area that looked suspicious.
Btw, this is the first I have heard about a white truck. We have heard about neighbors seeing a white van.

About CP;
"There's a lot of things there that we looked at
So it's not just, oh, here's a delivery. Here's somebody driving in the area. There's a lot more to that and that, that built up for us, enough probable cause in our eyes and the judge's to say, I think we need a search warrant."
"We believe he was a delivery man he was in the area for a reason. That doesn't mean he is completely eliminated. What if, and the search warrant we're processing comes back and says Nancy's DNA was found in his home?" He reiterates that is not the case he is just explaining why they don't completely eliminate.

The specific date for January 11th footage was requested for a reason. He said he didn't know what the reason was but, "I know that they have a valid reason for that date."
He says they then expanded it when asking people for footage they may have.

He made it sound like LE wasn't really interested in the January 23rd ring cam of the man at the door.

I mean he sounds really sincere. This really in encouraging.

I do have a pool and this is the first place my mind went when I saw them cleaning the pool.

Yes, and like a regular vac. the debris is caught in the pool filter or filter basket.

 

[maskedwoman]

That would imply that she was monitored inside her home..her movements etc. Since a huge amount of falls happen in the bathroom, that would imply she was viewed even while in the bathtub or shower or?? NO ONE HAS EVER SAiD SHE HAD A LIFE ALERT BUTTON SHE WORE., FOR EXAMPLE. That would be much more practical and far less intrusive than 24/7 cameras in her kitchen. Not buying it. HELL, no one was even paying for her Nest camera doorbell subscription! Now, we are supposed to believe she had cameras all over the house recording her every move? no way. MOO

My Mom had cameras and was fine with it, with one exception. She did not want cameras in her bathroom or bedroom. We covered by entrances, the main living areas and her office. There was sound though so, if she fell, she could call out.

 

[Vaderman]

What do you all make of the silence since last night? Is it a trip, stumble, and fall? Or is this turning out to be something much bigger that necessitates the silence?

 

[TIGER0822]

WTAH???

Baffling! He had to have more than a goatee and two eyes to name him as a poi. Was that the guy who looked like the artists rendition?

 

[maskedwoman]

It is my understanding from reading other comments on this thread that NG had an Apple watch that has an emergency alert option, so she would not have needed a life alert device. IIRC, jmo.

Excellent point! My Samsung watch has a fall alert, too. I am notoriously clumsy and I got it during Covid when I was home alone so much, and my husband was traveling. I felt someone needed to be alerted if (when) I fell.

So some of the air traffic people have questioned could have been NG related.

I'm not familiar with the area, but there have been posters that say there are many abandoned mines in the area close by. Maybe they just took her there instead of buried. JMO

Indeed.

As well as mines in the mountainous areas around Tucson, there are likely numerous crevasses to dispose of a body so it is never found. I agree sadly, that NG was likely gone by early 2/1. IMO.

"The mountain ranges near Tucson... are:

1. ...Catalinas Mountains
2. Huachuca Mountains
3. RIncon Mountains
4. Santa Rita Mountains
5. Tucson Mountains

...The Santa Catalinas, the Rincons, the Santa Ritas, and the Tucson Mountains... surround Tucson, the Huachuca Mountains are approximately 85 miles south of Tucson. Additional mountain ranges in the vicinity of Tucson are the Tortolitas and the Sierritas."

It would be nearly impossible to search that vast amount of mountainous areas.

What is the Origin of “The Mountains Around Tucson Spell CHRIST?”

The suggestion for the origin of this acronym was found in the book Faces of Joseph by Joseph Babinsky. Babinsky writes: “Stretching…

I think it was encouraging to watch the Nanos interview to hear tech companies still working on some of the videos!

 

[EncyclopediaBrownJr]

I’m hoping it’s a bluff and that they have solid leads still. Maybe they’re trailing a suspect and trying to make them feel comfortable. We’ve certainly seen that technique before in other cases before an arrest. Perhaps it’s someone they’ve already interviewed but didn’t have the evidence to arrest them.

I just don’t think LE is resigned at this point at all. Not in this case, at least. Fingers crossed.

No way that a guy who tried to use brush to cover a camera committed the perfect crime.

As Roger Rabbit said,

I just don’t believe it!
I won’t believe it!
I can’t believe it!
I shan’t believe it!

I think it's a bluff.

I'd say they are non stop trying to analyze and waiting for results on what they do have so far. It's that waiting game. We're just used to watching them where we can SEE them or hear about the latest as it was fast paced if along for the rides. IMO

Good question. It has been very silent.
