Eighty-seven days after Nancy Guthrie disappeared from her Tucson home, there are still no significant updates on the case — and the United Cajun Navy now credits Savannah Guthrie for handling the whole ordeal professionally. While neighbors still talk about Nancy, the case has not faded for her daughter. Nevertheless, Savannah has remained open about her pain, telling viewers it is “hard to go forward not knowing what happened,” but she continues showing up to work.
United Cajun Navy office praises Savannah Guthrie’s professionalism amid Nancy’s disappearance
Nancy Guthrie disappeared in the early hours of February 1, and the case has weighed heavily on her family, including her daughter, Savannah Guthrie. Authorities have classified the case as a kidnapping involving foul play. The FBI continues to analyze DNA evidence, but as of now, there have been no arrests in the case.
Back in the Catalina Foothills this week, reporter Brian Entin spoke with neighbors and members of the United Cajun Navy — the volunteer search group that has offered to assist law enforcement.
Aldine, who lives near Nancy’s home, talked about the mood in the neighborhood. She said, “It’s pretty quiet now,” adding, “but there’s a sadness,” she said. “Like, we all miss Nancy, for sure.” She added that she thinks about her “pretty much every day” and worries the case could go unsolved.
The United Cajun Navy has renewed its offer to help search the vast desert terrain surrounding Tucson. Brian Trasher spoke to Entin about Savannah, who returned to the Today Show on April 6 after two months away, saying, “I see Savannah talking on my TV and I just feel bad, just you know, knowing what she’s going through when she’s putting on a smile and doing her job like a professional.”
Savannah Guthrie’s family continues to offer a $1 million reward for any updates on Nancy Guthrie’s case. Until there are answers, the search will not stop — and Savannah will keep showing up for work through hope and heartbreak.
