Authorities now say the evidence inside Nancy Guthrie’s quiet Arizona home leaves little doubt: someone came in the night and took her. The unlocked door, the signs of forced entry, her severe mobility issues, and the untouched car all point away from any idea that she simply wandered off. Sheriff Chris Nanos has been blunt, insisting she “didn’t go willingly,” as the home is processed as a crime scene and federal agents step in to help.

For Savannah Guthrie, a journalist used to reporting on other families’ tragedies, the nightmare has become her own. She has turned to faith and the public, asking for prayers and pleading, “Bring her home.” Neighbors are scouring security footage, volunteers are searching the desert, and a reward has been posted. Investigators stress that even the smallest tip could matter. Until there are answers, a daughter waits, and a nation watches.
