Todd Blanche Raises Doubts Over FBI’s Role in Nancy Guthrie Search

Blanche said federal agents will keep assisting local investigators, while the FBI’s $100,000 reward and a $1 million family offer remain in place.

  • On Sunday, Attorney General Todd Blanche stated he does not believe the FBI should take over the investigation into Nancy Guthrie's disappearance in Arizona, though federal authorities continue providing assistance.
  • The Pima County Sheriff has maintained primary oversight since the 84-year-old woman disappeared from her Tucson home six months ago on August 1.
  • Authorities released video of a masked man outside the home shortly before her disappearance, while the FBI offers a $100,000 reward and Savannah Guthrie has offered up to $1 million for her mother's recovery.
  • Blanche told Kristen Welker he was "sorry to say that" there was no update, adding, "It's a horrible situation, and I share the grief and frustration that you and your colleagues have."
  • Director Kash Patel and leadership remain committed to the case, with federal officials continuing to provide manpower and forensic assistance to support Local Law Enforcement efforts.
