FBI Unveils New Evidence in Disappearance of Savannah Guthrie's Mother
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has released a series of new photographs as the intensive hunt for the missing mother of television presenter Savannah Guthrie approaches its tenth day. Nancy Guthrie, aged 84, vanished suddenly from her residence in Arizona, sparking a widespread search operation involving multiple law enforcement agencies.
Recovered Images Show Armed Intruder
In a significant development, FBI Director Kash Patel announced on Tuesday evening that investigators had successfully recovered previously inaccessible images from backend systems. These photographs depict an armed individual who appears to have tampered with the camera installed at Nancy Guthrie's front door on the morning of her disappearance.
The recovery operation involved close collaboration between the FBI, the Pima County Sheriff's Department, and private sector partners, focusing on retrieving any lost, corrupted, or inaccessible video footage from the home. Director Patel explained that the video was extracted from residual data, overcoming challenges posed by the removal of recording devices.

Savannah Guthrie, the prominent host of NBC's Today Show, has made several emotional public appeals for her mother's safe return. The case has drawn national attention, with law enforcement working around the clock to piece together the events leading to Nancy Guthrie's disappearance.
The investigation continues to prioritize locating Nancy Guthrie and identifying the individual captured in the newly released images. Authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward as they explore all possible leads in this troubling case.
