Is Nancy Guthrie Alive? Unanswered Questions 6 Days After Abduction of US Journalist’s Mother

Investigators are treating Nancy Guthrie's disappearance as a possible targeted abduction; FBI has offered a $50,000 reward amid ongoing searches and ransom note scrutiny.

  • On January 31, 2026, Nancy Guthrie disappeared from her Tucson home after a family games night and is suspected of being kidnapped, remaining missing for seven days.

  • Her video doorbell was disconnected at 1:47am and her pacemaker app at 2:28am, while surveillance software detected movement but did not retain footage; TMZ, KOLD, and KGUN received purported ransom notes demanding Bitcoin, prompting an FBI probe.
  • The FBI says there is no proof of life and has offered a $50,000 reward while federal officials assist, with President Donald Trump saying investigators have made progress.
  • On Thursday, authorities released an updated timeline, and homicide detectives joined the investigation, but no suspects had been identified after five days despite a multi-agency search.
