Click here for our latest updates on the Nancy Guthrie case.
Host of “Today”. Savannah Guthrie shared a touching Mother’s Day tribute to her missing mother, Nancy Guthrievowing she will “never stop searching” for the 84-year-old – more than three months after she disappeared from her Arizona home.
Savannah, 54, went to Instagram on May 10 to post a series of videos and photos of Nancy, several of which appear to have been taken in and around the Tucson-area estate where she raised all three of her children.
The photos and videos show Nancy spending time with her family, including children Savannah, AnnieAnd Cameronas well as her grandchildren.
“Mother, daughter, sister, Nonie – we miss you with every breath. We will never stop looking for you. We will never be at peace until we find you,” Savannah wrote in the caption of the video.
The “Today” host then issued a new plea to the public, asking for help finding her mother, who disappeared from her home in the Catalina Foothills on Feb. 1, and drawing attention to the fact that the $1 million her family promised to anyone who provides information on Nancy’s whereabouts is still available.

‘We need help. Someone knows something that can make a difference,” she continued. “Call 1800CALLFBI. You can be anonymous and the reward will still be available.
‘Please keep praying. Take her home.’
Photos and videos in the post capture Nancy over many years, including some taken when Savannah and her siblings were children, while others show the grandmother building gingerbread houses with her grandchildren, or spending time with her own siblings.
The post was shared just days after Tucson police confirmed that human remains had been discovered on May 7 about seven miles from Nancy’s home in Arizona, while emphasizing that the bone found was not related to her case.
A local police spokesman said further analysis showed the discovery of the bone was part of a “prehistoric anthropological investigation”, adding that it was “not criminal in nature”.
However, the statement marks one of the first times in weeks that authorities have shared any kind of update on the case – having long since stopped providing daily media briefings on the investigation.
Many questions have been raised about the handling of the case and the lack of progress that appears to have been made in tracking down Nancy’s alleged kidnappers, even after video footage from a security camera at her home was made public.
Savannah sparked new concerns about the state of the investigation on May 6 when she abruptly left the “Today” show about 30 minutes before her two-hour flagship segment was set to end.
Her opponent, Craig Melvintried to reassure viewers about her absence, saying: “Savannah had to leave a little early. But she’ll be right back tomorrow.”
No other information about her sudden departure was shared – and she returned to the show on May 7 Page six reported that her departure had “nothing” to do with Nancy’s case, but was related to an urgent “appointment” she had to attend.
In mid-April, it was revealed that DNA evidence discovered at Nancy’s home had ultimately been transferred to an FBI laboratory, after initially being sent to a private laboratory in Florida.
On April 16, Nancy was missing for more than two months, FBI sources said NewsNation and ABC News that its official laboratory received a DNA sample, noting that the evidence was not new, but rather came from a variety of materials collected from the property in early February.
“There is no new DNA evidence in the Nancy Guthrie case. The FBI requested this material more than two months ago,” a spokesperson said. An FBI official told ABC News.
“The Pima County Sheriff’s Office sent it to a private lab in Florida. Eleven weeks later, that laboratory transferred an original hair sample to the FBI laboratory for examination. We remain fully committed to this investigation.”
According to the newspaper, the FBI planned to use “new technology to perform advanced analysis on the DNA sample” to see if it could yield information about Nancy’s alleged kidnappers.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos– who has come under heavy criticism for his handling of the case – stated earlier in March that authorities had collected a number of DNA samples from Nancy’s home, but authorities were having difficulty extracting individual profiles from that evidence.
“It’s a challenge because we know we have DNA, but now we have to deal with that mixture and how we’re going to separate it,” he said.
Sheriff Nanos admitted that authorities had difficulty separating cross-contaminated DNA discovered in Nancy’s home, revealing that investigators had encountered some “challenges” in their examination of the evidence.
“We listen to our lab and our lab tells us there are challenges involved, and we understand those challenges,” he shared. NBC News end of February.
“But our lab also knows that technology is moving so quickly and at such a frenzy that they think some of these things will sort themselves out in a few weeks, months or maybe a year, so they can do better with, say, a combination of those kinds of things.”
At the time, Nanos also noted that previous DNA samples submitted to the Combined DNA Index System (CODIS), a database used by the FBI to track convicted criminals, did not result in a match, but that the additional evidence would be analyzed when “sorted out.”
“We think we may have some DNA there that could be our suspect, but we won’t know until that DNA is separated, sorted, maybe admitted to CODIS, maybe through genetic genealogy,” Nanos added.
No other updates about the DNA have been revealed since then.
Acting US Attorney General Todd Blanche address rumors of fallout between the FBI’s local sheriff’s department in a interview with NewsNation earlier this month, insisting that the federal agency is fully committed to supporting the work of Pima County authorities, noting that President Donald Trump is still kept informed of any progress.
“The FBI has been working closely with local law enforcement since the day this happened, and there have been reports of friction. I’ve seen those reports,” he said. “We are here to help, and the FBI, President Trump, has authorized and directed us to do everything we can to assist that investigation.
“This is essentially a local investigation due to the nature of these types of potential crimes, but the FBI continues to demand where we have been, which is that we are ready, willing and able to assist as much as we can.
“We don’t like interagency fights. Nobody likes that. It doesn’t help the investigation. But we are cooperating fully with local law enforcement.”
When asked whether the FBI should take over day-to-day management of the investigation, Blanche doubled down on his support for local law enforcement, telling the newspaper: “Well, I don’t think so. I think any investigation like this should be done with a coordinated approach, right?”
“Local law enforcement has tools that the FBI doesn’t have. So in any investigation like this, it’s not someone taking over or taking a back seat. There is a collaborative effort to solve the crime.”
