‘WE NEED TO KNOW SHE’S ALIVE’: Search for Savannah Guthrie’s Missing Mother Intensifies as a Viral “Seven-Second Call” Claim Spreads
TUCSON, Ariz. — The most haunting moment in the Nancy Guthrie case didn’t come from flashing police lights or a sheriff’s briefing. It came from a short, steady sentence delivered into a camera by a daughter who makes her living asking questions on national television.
“We are ready to talk,” Savannah Guthrie said in a family video posted online, seated beside her siblings Annie and Camron. “But we need to know — without a doubt — that she is alive.”
By Thursday, Feb. 5, authorities said the search for Guthrie’s 84-year-old mother had entered its fifth day, with no confirmed contact from whoever investigators believe took her from her home in the Tucson area. Sheriff Chris Nanos told reporters he still believes Nancy Guthrie is “still out there,” but acknowledged there has been no proof of life.
What investigators do have is a chilling trail of time stamps — and one detail that turned a missing-person report into a suspected abduction: blood found on the porch that officials say matches Nancy Guthrie’s DNA.
