The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has provided a new update in the ongoing investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the mother of Savannah Guthrie, co-anchor of the Today show. Nancy Guthrie, 84, has been reported missing since early February, and authorities continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding her disappearance.
Law enforcement officials previously stated that Nancy Guthrie’s home in the Catalina Foothills area of Tucson, Arizona, is being treated as an active crime scene. Investigators have indicated it does not appear she left the residence on her own. Search and evidence teams have been working to gather information and follow leads.
Former President Donald Trump said in a public message that federal resources were being made available to support local authorities and the family. He also shared supportive remarks for the Guthrie family as the search continues.

New Message Under Review
On February 6, the FBI confirmed it is reviewing a newly received message connected to the case. Authorities said they are assessing the information to determine its authenticity. This follows earlier reports that media outlets received messages referencing ransom demands.
In a statement, investigators emphasized that this is one piece of information among many being evaluated. They continue to encourage anyone with credible tips to contact official FBI channels. A reward of up to $50,000 remains available for information that helps locate Nancy Guthrie or leads to the arrest and conviction of anyone involved.
A local news outlet confirmed it received the new message but chose not to share details publicly out of respect for the family and the investigation. Officials have not verified whether the message is connected to earlier communications.
Ongoing Investigation
An FBI spokesperson told media that teams returned to Nancy Guthrie’s home as part of routine follow-up investigative work. According to the spokesperson, the visit was planned regardless of the new message.
Authorities stress that verified updates will come from official sources. The case remains active, and investigators continue to evaluate all credible information. Members of the public with relevant details are encouraged to contact law enforcement through official tip lines.
