WASHINGTON, DC: Donald Trump expressed "pure disgust" after reviewing newly released surveillance footage and photos from the investigation into Nancy Guthrie's disappearance. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed Tuesday that she and the President personally examined the evidence, which shows an armed individual at the Guthrie residence.

Leavitt described Trump's reaction as "heartbreaking" and said the entire White House remains in prayer for Savannah Guthrie and her family. The administration has now taken an active role in sharing images with the public, hoping to generate leads in the ongoing investigation.

President urges nationwide help for suspect



In an official statement and via social media, the White House urged every American across the country to scrutinize the new images. The President is personally encouraging anyone with knowledge of the suspect’s identity, clothing, or equipment to contact federal authorities immediately.

“The President encourages any American across the country with any knowledge of this suspect to please call the FBI,” Leavitt stated during a briefing, noting that federal agents continue to assist state and local authorities on the ground in Arizona. The public appeal comes after the Guthrie family informed officials that they do not recognize the person captured in the frames.

FBI releases images after family fails to recognize



The decision to go public with the surveillance data was made after neither the Guthrie family nor law enforcement could identify the individual in the footage. By posting the images and videos publicly, the FBI hopes that a member of the public might recognize specific items seen in the recordings that have so far eluded investigators.

The White House has since reposted the FBI’s findings on X, reinforcing the message that no detail is too small to report. Despite tireless work by local and federal agencies, the identity of the person seen tampering with the Guthrie home remains a mystery, leading to the President’s direct call for citizen assistance.

Prayers of White House with Guthrie family



Karoline Leavitt reiterated that the administration’s top priority is the safe return of Nancy Guthrie and the peace of her family. “We hope that this person is found soon and that her mother is brought home safely,” she added, noting that the prayers of the entire White House are with Savannah Guthrie during this time.

The President remains in close contact with the FBI as they continue to support the local teams leading the investigation in Tucson. Authorities are hopeful that the President’s massive platform will generate the necessary leads to bring an end to the family’s agonizing search.
