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

I think this is a very reasonable thing to wonder! Unfortunately, I think it’s really dependent on the individuals. I have access to my parents ring cameras and turned off all notifications except actual doorbell rings because, as someone else said, there are a lot of false alerts. Truthfully, I mostly use the cameras to look at their dogs and admire how cute they are

oh yes the alerts are constant we silence them too - car goes by- animal etc.

Unless

Flashlight

Per your last point, iiuc it might be more accurate to say her pacemaker was out of range when the app tried connecting. Implication, she was taken some time prior to 2:28.

JMO

True, true. I edited it to say shows a disconnect from her phone.

I searched your image in Google Image Search & it said this (via AI):

This particular image or a video frame of this individual is often used in social media memes and short-form video clips (like those on TikTok or Instagram) to convey a sense of authority, seriousness, or a "tough but fair" persona. The high-contrast, monochrome style emphasizes his facial features and adds a dramatic tone to the content.

So they just gave you a frequently used picture.

Google images no longer does facial recognition.....(darn)

 

[MassGuy]

Ran the images of the masked individual at the Camera through Ai to see what he may look like under the mask based on facial structures etc and this is what it produced. (ODD)

Yeah. A million people can ask that question it will produce a million different images.

It's not reliable, and definitely not helpful.

The danger is the people posting this stuff on social media, and the risk is that the wrong image gets stuck in people's brains, like what happened in the Charlie Kirk investigation.

Has anyone noticed that the 1 million posts about the church lady have disappeared and are now being replaced with posts about plucked eyebrows and the kind of flowers near the front door? Just an observation..lol

Well, most of us know how important it is to catch an abductor by posting about church times and flowers.

 

[LAhiker]

I will be disappearing in a bit to do the very grown-up, very responsible things a person my age is tasked with but I was wondering, and forgive me if this is an absolutely IDIOTIC question (as I said, we have a different brand of camera):

Doesn't AG, who doesn't live terribly far from NG's house, have alerts for the doorbell?

I know. Very dumb of me. I feel chastised even before posting, but if I lived closed enough to a fragile, elderly relative (ha! I have none...that layer of family is all long-gone!), and this technology was in place, I would want to be able to "check in" if something suspicious pinged?

Before anyone scolds me, or rolls their eyes at my silliness, I come from a different culture and generation and these things come to mind randomly.

Would that have required there to be a current subscription for the doorbell?

We held off on posting this out of respect for the family, but after today’s news, here’s a closer look at Nancy Guthrie’s front walk

@Simply Southern took me a while to find it again, but it was this video!

How long do you think LE has had the Nest cam images? How long did they analyze them before releasing to the public?

I’m guessing very recently. Google was reportedly assisting them and had to go through the data. If they showed it to the family first, it was probably either yesterday or today that they received it. There really wouldn’t have been much reason to sit on it.

 

[TheDinks]

JLR is at AG home

He has good quality cam footage, following the investigations there...

 

[MassGuy]

DEVELOPING: Two SWAT armored vehicles have just departed the Pima County Sheriff’s Department parking lot, heading in different directions. Sources say the activity is connected to the search for Nancy Guthrie.

At the same time, the FBI presence outside Annie’s house is increasing, but I don’t see any tactical gear here.

At least 10 agents in the neighborhood canvassing right now.

[browneyes]

I mean I am trying to get my parents to get cameras but I can tell you right now they would never be ok with me having eyes on it. I have eyes on other places without elderly people (just convenience for us) but I can guarantee you they would feel it is an invasion of their privacy. However it is just as likely that AG did have NG's cameras on her phone, which, if so, then it makes it even more ludicrous that LE had to keep going back to find more

If the camera was set up to notify AG, it wouldn’t have helped if AG was asleep. NG had no subscription and video is removed after 3 hours.

How long do you think LE has had the Nest cam images? How long did they analyze them before releasing to the public?

I want to think not long. The sooner they could get out the sooner someone might call in with a tip. Somebody I'm sure recognizes that person. JMO

 

[LetsSolvIt]

I'm still on page 868 (apologize if this has been discussed) but studying photo of potential perp, wondering about wearing a jacket -- I think of Tucson being warm. Thinking a jacket with backpack and a knit balaclava might have been hot clothing on Jan 31/Feb 1.

Also, noticed that at start of the video, perp appears to not be wearing the backpack (don't see straps at start), but once on porch he does have it on.

A javelina has joined the FBI and PCSD walking houses in this neighborhood. So to recap today in the Guthrie case: surveillance images, pizza delivery, FBI and PCSD going door to door and a javelina sighting.

As much as I hate what is happening for the Guthrie family, I'm enjoying seeing the landscape of that beautiful area....and now seeing a javelina which is new to me to see. And, that dark sky.

Got it! Thanks so much for the info

 

[GussiedCanoodler]

Gussied, there is someone close to the family who looks remarkably like those eyebrows, complete with criminal history. I see folks referencing STS here, so I’ll assume that it okay to say it’s mentioned in the comments there. IIRC, they even discussed the name in the live program. Friend of a family member, criminal history in line with this crime.

Ahhhh, okay, I see what you mean!! Sorry about that, I don’t know why but when you said that I thought you meant PHYSICALLY close and I was gonna say I don’t know what her neighbors look like! Thanks for the clarification

 

[tarabull]

It’s interesting, Brian Entin got to interview a local in her car and she said that people have been casing the houses in the neighborhood for a while. How accurate that is, I don’t know. I’m sure law enforcement has already looked at crime activity that’s taken place in the area within the last few months or year.

Reminds me of the white van a local recalled seeing in the hood prior to this happening.

 

[submarine7]

Agree. Latino 20s to early 30s.

I'm not the poster you were addressing, but I saw it and it was a gray haired, gray bearded white male in his late 50s.

To me, it was not accurate to what the footage shows. I'm thinking a Latino in his 20s.

 

[Trino]

Sorry Everyone! I was informed that I should not post the pic so I deleted.

You can bet the FBI did that. Won't tell us, however, unless Patel is around to break the news.
