What To Know
- Savannah Guthrie shared an emotional message as the search for her missing mother, Nancy Guthrie, continues.
- Nancy was allegedly abducted from her Tucson, Arizona, home on February 1.

As the Nancy Guthrie investigation continues into its fifth month with no updates on her whereabouts or suspects, Savannah Guthrie has shared a new message of hope.
On Sunday (June 7), the Today co-host took to her Instagram Stories to share an emotional message, alongside a painting of Jesus Christ. “Oh my, my soul it cries out, soul, it cries out,” Savannah wrote over the religious artpiece. “Bring her home.”
Nancy, the 84-year-old mother of Savannah, has been missing since February 1, when police believe she was abducted from her home in Tucson, Arizona. Investigators have released doorbell camera footage of a masked suspect and sent DNA for testing at the FBI lab in Quantico, but no suspects have been named.

This isn’t the first time Savannah has posted this biblical artwork. In March, she shared the same image on social media, alongside the message, “I believe, I believe.”
She also posted a message about Nancy on Mother’s Day last month, writing, “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.”
“We need help,” she added. “Someone knows something that can make the difference. Call 1800CALLFBI. You can be anonymous and the reward remains available. Please keep praying.”
Last week, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos provided an update on the case, explaining why no arrests have been made yet. “You know, these cases are difficult,” he told KOLD-TV. “And it’s not just this case. A number of our cases come to us where it requires a lot of work from other people. It’s just not a detective goes out there, talks to somebody, and we can make an arrest.”
Nanos continued, “This is a very sensitive case. But what really makes it prolonged is we do rely on labs for the digital part of this case, which is very critical.”
He said the “positive” to this is that “people are working, doing their best to stay within those rules so that they have that understanding that, look, nobody wants to arrest the wrong person. We want to make sure that DNA doesn’t just identify a suspect. It also exonerates those who are innocent.”
