I guess they are learning it's better to issue a written statement than have Sheriff Footinmouth speak to the press.

What we know​

• INVESTIGATION LATEST: There is police activity tonight in Nancy Guthrie's neighborhood related to the investigation into her disappearance, a Pima County Sheriff's Department spokesperson confirmed.
• SUSPECT DETAILS: The FBI provided new details about the suspect seen in videos on the porch of Nancy Guthrie’s home the morning she disappeared. Authorities said they are looking for a male who is 5’9” to 5’10” tall, with an average build, and said he was wearing a black, 25-liter Ozark Trail Hiker Pack backpack.
• DNA COLLECTED: The sheriff tonight said that authorities are working to identify who DNA collected from Guthrie's property belongs to. The sheriff said it was not from Guthrie or someone in close contact to her, the department said.
• REWARD INCREASED: The FBI has increased the reward for information leading to an arrest or conviction to $100,000. The agency says it has fielded more than 13,000 tips from the public since Feb. 1, when the mother “TODAY” co-anchor Savannah Guthrie disappeared from her home.
• ARIZONA SEARCH: The sheriff's department says investigators combing the foothills around Guthrie’s neighborhood have recovered several items, including gloves that have been submitted for DNA testing.

Replying to bring this post forward. Good short synopsis of what we know.

Reports of one being released but that’s all I’ve seen reported. (In article above)

I do recall a few things said very early on in this case, one of which was white van. It seems like we were joking about a white van and eternity ago. That has been a constant topic in what has seemed like a zillion variables.

I was just reading this adt article last night.

Most burglaries occur within 2 miles from the perps home.

Thanks! This article should be pinned and posted somewhere for everyone to refer to as it has a wealth of information. I’ve been the victim of one home invasion, one attempted home invasion (while I was home) and witnessed a neighbor’s home invasion (separate city/state) from previous two above. I also was victim to a front porch burglary (they took all of our porch furniture!) in the same neighborhood where I witnessed the neighbor’s break-in.

We had home security systems (but no cameras) in both locations. We now have Blink cameras at front door, garage/driveway, and back porch. I’ve witnessed a few people (solicitors, etc) take notice of the front door camera as they walk up and seen their behavior shift once the noticed. The cameras are positioned high enough to scan the area but no one can rip them off without a ladder. Highly recommend these cameras (easy installation) and positioning technique.

Could some of it be PR? To use a show of force to make it look like they are doing something?

They are all risking their lives during such a big action. I don't think, it is for show only. MOO

Are there any theories yet on connection btw Z and NG?

The only thing I read is that Z sold the land rover to the guy that LE pulled over at Culvers. He bought it on 2/13, same day.

Hopefully the three others are still being detained jmvho

The sense of urgency is palpable. According to CBS News, law enforcement activity ramped up at a location about two miles from Guthrie’s residence, with Sheriff Nanos confirming, “We are actively working a lead. I cannot say anything else.” The secrecy, while frustrating for those desperate for answers, is a sign of the high stakes and the delicate nature of the investigation.

[mickey2942]

I am considering getting cameras installed, any recommendations? Or ones to avoid?

What does Z mean?

The resemblance with the IG person and this sketch is kind of crazy: Renowned Houston forensic artist sketches her version of suspect in Nancy Guthrie's disappearance

 

[TharTrooth]

What does Z mean?

In relation to what?

 

[raja]

One man detained and released means nothing if more were also detained. They can hold someone without arresting them for a certain period of time.

I believe they were detained atleast initially

Serious question, is it too much to expect LE/FBI to hold a presser? There was and continues to be huge, worldwide attention from last night, I think it would help for them to clarify and provide some clear information to avoid any more speculation around what happened and why no arrests

Yes this is my biggest question. Why not have a presser ?
