imo, NO as articles says Concluded without arrests. If concluded, no longer anyone detained.
Any idea on a timeline of how long someone can be detained before they have to either make an arrest or release them?

I wonder what the combination of triggers are for these ops - evidence (i.e. investigative findings like phone pings, surveillance, vehicle locations) vs tips to LE/FBI? What is the combination of factors that is justifying this high level response? Certainly continuing to trust they are following leads appropriately and sound like they are getting their warrants approved by a judge, but what is giving them the confidence given what we've seen in the last few days?
Right now, this entire story is quixotic at best. Honestly, it's hysteria, imo. The spotlight is on them. It's a "high profile" case because of the celebrity daughter. It's a sympathetic case because of an 84 y.o victim. This case could and probably should have been an Arizona based news story after a few days with a few updates in between. The media is driving this story. If YOU were kidnapped, you would only be a story on WEBSLEUTHS. JMO

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
I believe people had posted here that LE had said there would be no more pressers until there was a significant break in the case, so I’m guessing they don’t have anything substantial to report yet unfortunately. I tried to find sources for this but there has been so much reported that I haven’t had luck but I’ll update my post if I find what I’m referring to

ETA: here ya go, finally found one after I posted this! Scroll down to 5 days ago with title ‘no suspects in the case, sheriff’s department says’. It says:

“News conferences will not be held until there are significant developments that warrant announcement, the department said.”

See if this article works for you. Sadly, no one has been detained.

Thank you. My feelings are all over the place right now and it make’s me sympathize for the Guthrie family. I cannot imagine what they are going through.

To be fair, many cases make national headlines without being related to a celebrity. An elderly person and ransom notes make for national headlines even without the celebrity aspect.

Could some of it be PR? To use a show of force to make it look like they are doing something?
I would  sincerely hope that's not the case!!! jmo

What we know​

  • INVESTIGATION LATEST: There was police activity last night in Nancy Guthrie’s neighborhood related to the investigation into her disappearance, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department said.
  • DNA COLLECTED: DNA that does not belong to Nancy Guthrie or anyone close to her was collected at her property, the sheriff said. Authorities are testing it, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department said.
  • REWARD INCREASED: The FBI has doubled the reward for information leading to an arrest or conviction to $100,000. Authorities have said they are combing through thousands of tips they have received from the public since Feb. 1, when the mother “TODAY” co-anchor Savannah Guthrie disappeared from her home.
  • ‘WE WILL NEVER GIVE UP HOPE’: Savannah Guthrie shared home movie footage of her mother and their family on social media, writing: “Our lovely mom. We will never give up on her. Thank you for your prayers and hope.”
  • SUSPECT DETAILS: The FBI analyzed videos taken from Nancy Guthrie’s Tucson, Arizona, home that show a man who is 5’9” to 5’10” tall and wearing a black, 25-liter Ozark Trail Hiker Pack backpack tampering with her doorbell camera the the morning she disappeared.

I am considering getting cameras installed, any recommendations? Or ones to avoid?
We are very happy with the Ring and Blink systems we use.

Is he still there? I thought he was just in the area briefly for a separate thing.
No, he is there waiting to jump in front of the case and take credit for solving it, as is his practice. Or perhaps his country music girlfriend has a show in Tucson he’s going to attend. Or both.

CNN said no one was detained. So who is correct?

Honestly, I don't think we'll hear anything from LE until they make an arrest or find Nancy. It's actually standard procedure - don't lay your cards on the table or do anything to jeopardize the case. At this point, the only reason we should hear from them before they make an arrest if is they need the public's help. It doesn't look like they need our help anymore.

It is hard to believe they sent that many people and CSI to the location and nothing resulted from it. I mean, that was a huge amount of force and investigators.

Snipped by me…

“I think we saw that again last night, but this particular lead is not going to go any further,” he said.

Oh I hope CNN’s source is wrong on this! If not, I can’t follow any more of these late night LE operations. I really thought more would come from this one with all the FBI vehicles rolled in after the subjects were detained. I can’t take the roller coaster ride anymore. It’s beginning to feel a bit like the boy who cried wolf.
