TUCSON, Ariz. — The disappearance of Nancy Guthrie has entered its second week without significant leads, raising fears for her health and safety following the arrival of ransom notes demanding money for her return.
Authorities have been active in the Tucson area, returning multiple times over the weekend to interview neighbors and examine possible leads. Investigators confirmed that Nancy was last seen on January 31 and reported missing the following day after failing to attend church. She requires daily medication due to health issues, including a pacemaker, making her disappearance particularly concerning.
The investigation has garnered national attention, with family members of Guthrie, including her daughter Savannah Guthrie, publicly pleading for her mother’s safe return. Savannah stated, ‘We beg you now to return our mother to us so that we can celebrate with her. This is the only way we will have peace. This is very valuable to us, and we will pay.’
During the search, authorities have utilized tips and information gathered from the community, although no suspects or vehicles of interest have been identified so far. The sheriff's department has received various ransom letters, but officials have refrained from confirming their legitimacy while investigating every lead.
Community members have shown their support, gathering outside Nancy Guthrie’s home and participating in search efforts. Locals have flooded social media with related discussions and theories, further drawing attention to the case.
As the investigation continues, authorities express increasing concern over Nancy’s need for medication and the implications of her ongoing absence, urging anyone with information to come forward.
