The search for Nancy Guthrie is now in its 7th week.
Meanwhile, a retired SWAT commander believes a vacant residence near Nancy Guthrie’s home may have been used asa “staging location” for the suspect or suspects.
Follow The Post’s live updates on Savannah Guthrie’s missing mom, Nancy, for the latest news:
A retired Pima County Sheriff detective believes Nancy Guthrie’s kidnapping was premeditated, involving “two to four accomplices.” Kurt Dabb, citing the logistics of such an abduction, stated it was too much for one person. He added the home was likely canvassed beforehand, agreeing it was a targeted kidnapping, not a botched robbery. Retired Pima County SWAT commander Bob Krygier told Parade he believed a vacant home near Nancy Guthrie's residence could have been used as the suspect's "staging location." “They could look at [that location] as [a] possible home base or staging location for the suspect(s). It would provide them a cover story to be at those locations at different times,” Krygier told Parade. Krygier explained the vacant home could be used to surveil Guthrie's home and stash equipment away from the public eye. Guthrie was last seen on Jan. 31, 2026. She is believed to have been taken from her Tucson, Arizona, home.Nancy Guthrie abductor likely had as many as four accomplices, retired Pima county detective says

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos is accused of mishandling the investigation into the disappearance of Savannah Guthrie’s mother, Nancy Guthrie.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos faces criticism and a recall effort for his handling of Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance. Critics accuse him of spending more time at the gym than on the case, releasing the crime scene too early, and giving contradictory information to the media, all while the case grows colder.
A former NYPD K-9 officer says investigators' decision not to deploy specialist cadaver dogs that detect corpses by scent "defies logic," as the investigation into the missing 84-year-old's mysterious disappearance hits its seventh week.
"We're just chasing shadows," Michael Gould told Fox News Tuesday.
"They're considered in court a scientific instrument. So why the sheriff chose not to use them, I don't understand," the retired investigator said, adding that the implications are "that A, she's still alive, that's one implication, or B, they've given up searching for her."
As the case stretches past the 40-day mark, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos believes Guthrie's family "has come to terms with the fact, I think, that this is a homicide investigation."
A surreal scene unfolded at the scene of Nancy Guthrie’s abduction on Feb. 10 when a pizza delivery man approached the house with a stack of pies.
Frustrated police turned him away from the active crime scene with a stern warning. Reporters there claimed the pizzas had been sent by a fan for true crime live streamer Jonathan Lee Riches, better known as JLR Investigates.
Riches was part of a gaggle camped at the front of the house, a new breed of content creators who blur the lines between reporting, investigation and entertainment.
These DIY online channels can prove lucrative too, with top live streamers pulling in up to $30,000-a-week, according to Smith, and fans flying in from other states to meet them.
Followers say they admire the doggedness and feel like they are part of the investigation.
However, they are not, and this is where police say problems arise.
The Arizona sheriff leading the hunt for Nancy Guthrie has responded to efforts to recall him for being “an embarrassment” for his handling of the high-profile kidnapping case.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos addressed the effort to oust him soon after it was first revealed by The Post on Tuesday.
Chris Nanos, the sheriff in charge of the Nancy Guthrie investigation, is facing a massive recall drive from furious locals, after the Democrat "embarrassed" the county, The Post can reveal.
Daniel Butierez, a Republican congressional candidate, confirmed that he has already initiated the lengthy recall process.
He said he has 500 volunteers working to collect signatures to oust Nanos from office.
