Monday marks 100 days since Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance
(NBC, KYMA) - Monday, May 11, 2026 marks 100 days since Nancy Guthrie's disappearance and her daughter, "Today" Show co-anchor Savannah Guthrie is pleading for the public's help finding her mother.
A heart-wrenching tribute shared on the first Mother's Day to pass since 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie's disappearance.
Savannah Guthrie posted new photos and videos on Instagram writing, "We will never stop looking for you, we will never be at peace until we find you."
As the investigation into Guthrie's suspected kidnapping nears 100 days, what happened to her and who's involved remains a mystery.
"100 days out. They're against a wall right now," said Jeff Hynes, a retired commander for the Phoenix Police Department.
Guthrie disappeared from her Catalina Foothills home in the middle of the night on February 1.
The back door was propped open, all of her belongings were left inside and her blood was found on the front porch, leading investigators and Guthrie's children to believe she was taken against her will.
"Do you think because of me?...We don't know anything," Guthrie expressed during an interview with Hoda Kotb earlier this year.
Chilling images of an armed man seen tampering with Guthrie's doorbell camera recovered more than a week later prompted hope that someone might recognize a possible suspect.
Investigators detained and released two men in the days that followed, but still no arrests have been made.
"The further out we go, the less chance of that happening," Hynes expressed.
Hynes, who's been following the case from the beginning, says investigators are likely reviewing the tens of thousands of tips they've received and double-checking possible leads.
"They no longer have fresh evidentiary trails to follow and unfortunately, unless you get more, you are stuck," Hynes explained.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos previously said his detectives found a lot of DNA evidence inside Guthrie's home and at last check it's still being analyzed and compared for genetic genealogy matches.
Just last week, FBI Director Kash Patel criticized Sheriff Nanos' decision to send those samples to a private lab in Florida over their lab in Quantico.
Nanos replied, in a statement, saying the decision was based on operational needs and the private lab is collaborating with the FBI.
"You could throw stones at this from many different angles but the bottom line is she, her body, is still out there, and it's outstanding and hopefully, the family gets some peace here soon," Hynes remarked.
A lingering tribute in front of Guthrie's home echos Savannah's desperate plea asking an abductor to "Do the right thing" and "Take Nancy home."
