She urged that if anyone has direct knowledge about her mother, they should contact the authorities immediately.

In the video, Guthrie asked the public to continue supporting the search effort. “So many people have been praying for every faith and no faith at all, praying for her return, and we feel those prayers”, she said. “Please keep praying without ceasing. We still believe”. However, she acknowledged that uncertainty now surrounds her 84-year-old mother’s fate, even as investigators have continued to pursue new leads.
Meanwhile, the FBI Phoenix bureau confirmed that the family-funded reward on X. He stated that, individuals with firsthand knowledge of Nancy’s whereabouts should call the agency’s tip line at 1-800-CALL-FBI. Guthrie also noted that callers may remain anonymous. “Someone out there knows something that can bring her home”, she said. She further added, “Somebody knows, we are begging you to please come forward now”.
Investigation Intensifies as Tips Surge in Nancy Guthrie’s Case
By late Tuesday, a senior law enforcement official told NBC News that Guthrie’s social media appeal generated more than 750 calls within 12 hours. Authorities did not disclose the substance of those tips. However, officials described the response as significant and helpful to the ongoing inquiry.
At the same time, the family pledged $500,000 to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. They emphasized solidarity with families facing similar uncertainty. The organization said that the contribution would expand access to guidance, resources, and emotional support for relatives who are in search of their loved ones.
Investigators also continue to examine surveillance footage that shows an unidentified man near Nancy Guthrie’s residence on the morning she disappeared. Chris Nanos said that authorities have not confirmed whether the images were captured earlier than that day, while the investigation remains active. Officials continue to coordinate efforts across agencies, and they urge residents to report any unusual activity linked to the case.
Detectives are reviewing digital evidence and neighborhood camera feeds. Search teams are following up on credible leads that may clarify the timeline of events. Furthermore, family members said that the community support has strengthened their resolve to sustain the search until answers emerge. Investigators believe that timely information could significantly advance the case and guide recovery efforts in the coming days.
