Nancy Guthrie’s Son-in-Law Identified as Potential Suspect in Disappearance Case. TUCSON, Ariz. — Authorities have identified Tommaso Cioni, husband of Savannah Guthrie’s sister Annie, as a potential suspect in the disappearance of Savannah Guthrie’s 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie, according to reports. Nancy was last seen at her Tucson home on Saturday night after having dinner with Annie, though it remains unclear whether Cioni was present.
Nancy’s family alerted police on Sunday when she failed to attend her regular church service. Investigators have since towed Annie’s car, which may be connected to Cioni, and found that all home security cameras had been disabled. NewsNation released video showing a trail of blood leading to the front steps of Nancy’s home; authorities confirmed the blood belongs to her.
A purported ransom note demanding payment for Nancy’s release has been received, with the Pima County Sheriff’s Department and FBI investigating its authenticity. Law enforcement says Nancy is in poor health and urgently needs medication. Apple Watch data suggests her pacemaker stopped syncing early Sunday morning, providing a potential timeline for her disappearance. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos described evidence of possible foul play inside the home, while former FBI agent Nicole Parker suggested the abduction may have been carried out by someone with a personal grievance. Authorities continue to search for Nancy, emphasizing that time is critical.
