Recent unverified reports suggested that ransom notes referencing Guthrie were sent to media outlets, though no law enforcement agencies have substantiated these claims. The Pima County Sheriff’s Office confirmed it is “aware” of such reports and is “taking all tips and leads very seriously,” sharing all information with FBI investigators.
Evidence collected so far includes Nancy Guthrie’s cellphone, her car, and several DNA samples from her home. However, officials stated that none of the tests have pointed to a suspect or person of interest.
As the search presses forward, NBC Sports confirmed that Savannah Guthrie will remain in Arizona and not travel to Italy as planned for coverage of the Paris Olympics. “Our hearts are with her and the entire Guthrie family as the search continues for their mother,” NBC said in a statement.
