It\u2019s 1:47 AM on February 1, 2026. Nancy Guthrie\u2019s doorbell camera goes black. The 84-year-old retired teacher is inside her Catalina Foothills home, sleeping. Outside, someone is approaching. They\u2019re wearing a ski mask. Black gloves. A backpack. And a gun.<\/p>\n
Twenty-five minutes later, the camera\u2019s software detects movement. No footage. Just a timestamp. At 2:28 AM, Nancy\u2019s pacemaker stops syncing with her phone. The Bluetooth connection cuts. She\u2019s being moved. Out of range. Away from her home.<\/p>\n
By noon that same day, Nancy\u2019s church friends are worried. She never misses Sunday service. Never. A welfare check is called. Deputies arrive. What they find makes their blood run cold.<\/p>\n
An empty house. Blood on the front porch. Cameras smashed. A back door wide open. And Nancy Guthrie\u2014mother of TODAY show host Savannah Guthrie\u2014is gone.<\/p>\n
Nancy Guthrie isn\u2019t just anyone\u2019s mother. She\u2019s a woman of routine. Faith. Family. Every Sunday at 11 AM, she logs into her church\u2019s live stream service. The congregants know her. They watch for her. She\u2019s that reliable.<\/p>\n

She\u2019s 84 years old but sharp. A retired teacher who spent decades shaping young minds. A woman who raised three children: Savannah, the face of America\u2019s morning news; Annie, who lives nearby in Tucson; and Camron, her son. She\u2019s a grandmother. A friend. A pillar of her community.<\/p>\n
But Nancy has limitations. She can\u2019t walk 50 yards without assistance. She has a pacemaker monitoring her heart. She takes daily medication\u2014medication that could be fatal if missed. She\u2019s vulnerable. And someone knew that.<\/p>\n
On January 31, 2026, Nancy\u2019s life follows its normal rhythm. Until it doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n
At 5:32 PM on January 31, Nancy Guthrie orders an Uber. The driver picks her up from her million-dollar home in the Catalina Foothills\u2014one of Tucson\u2019s most affluent neighborhoods. The destination: her daughter Annie\u2019s house, just a few miles away.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a family night. Dinner. Board games. Laughter. Annie later tells investigators she saw \u201cno red flags.\u201d Nothing unusual. Nothing to worry about. It\u2019s just another Saturday with Mom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
