FBI wraps last search of Nancy Guthrie’s home as investigation seems to reach deadlock

TUCSON, ARIZONA: The FBI returned to the home of Nancy Guthrie on Wednesday, February 25, in what sources described as a final sweep of the property before it is handed back to her family.

Agents reportedly spent more than two hours at the Tucson residence of the 84-year-old mother of Today co-anchor Savannah Guthrie, collecting any remaining material that could aid the investigation. According to The New York Post, the latest visit suggested authorities may have exhausted immediate leads in the case.
