Camron Guthrie, Savannah Guthrie’s brother, is speaking directly to whoever may be involved in the disappearance of their mother, Nancy — five days after she vanished from her home in Tucson, Ariz.
In a video posted to Savannah’s Instagram on Thursday, Feb. 5, Camron appealed to the person or people who may be holding Nancy, urging them to “reach out” and confirm she is alive so the family can “move forward.”
“This is Camron Guthrie. I’m speaking for the Guthrie family. Whoever is out there holding our mother, we want to hear from you,” Camron said. “We haven’t heard anything directly. We need you to reach out and we need a way to communicate with you so we can move forward.”
He continued: “But first we have to know that you have our mom. We want to talk to you, and we are waiting for contact.”
A day earlier, on Wednesday, Feb. 4, Camron appeared alongside his sisters Savannah and Annie in another Instagram video, where the three made an emotional plea for their mother’s safe return.
“Mommy, if you are hearing this, you are a strong woman,” Savannah said. “You are God’s precious daughter, Nancy. We believe and know that even in this valley, He is with you. Everyone is looking for you mommy, everywhere. We will not rest. Your children will not rest until we are together again. We speak to you every moment, and we pray without ceasing and we rejoice in advance for the day that we hold you in our arms again. We love you.”
Camron closed that video with a final message: “We love you, mama. Stay strong.”
Nancy, 84, was last seen Saturday, Jan. 31, at her Arizona home. She was reported missing the following day, triggering an urgent search after the Pima County Sheriff’s Department (PCSD) classified her as a “vulnerable adult.”
Nancy depends on daily medication for her survival, has “no cognitive issues,” but has limited mobility, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said at a Feb. 1 press conference. On Wednesday, Feb. 4, Nanos told NBC’s Liz Kreutz that investigators “have nothing else to go on but the belief that she is here,” adding that authorities remain hopeful Nancy is still “alive.”
No suspect or person of interest has been identified so far, according to law enforcement.
“Every single lead is looked at,” Nanos said. “We’re actively looking at everybody we come across in this case. Everybody. I wouldn’t say anybody is ruled out yet.”

On Thursday, Feb. 5, FBI Agent in Charge Heith Janke announced during a PCSD press conference that a $50,000 reward is being offered for information that leads to Nancy’s recovery or the arrest of anyone involved in her disappearance.
Nanos also confirmed that blood found at Nancy’s home belongs to her, and said investigators “believe Nancy is still out there” and “we want her home.”
During the same press conference, authorities addressed alleged ransom notes that were sent to several media outlets. Janke said one person was arrested for “an imposter ransom demand,” while investigators continue examining other notes.
Savannah, 54, has been in Arizona with her family and has not appeared on Today since the search began. It was also confirmed on Feb. 3 that she will no longer be covering the 2026 Olympic Games.
