It has been more than four months since Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of NBC Today co-anchor Savannah Guthrie, was apparently abducted from her home in the Catalina Foothills area of Tucson, Arizona. She was last seen on the evening of Jan 31, and the alarm was raised on Feb 1. As of writing, she remains missing, with no arrest or suspect named.
For the Guthrie family, this has been a nightmare, with Savannah Guthrie speaking publicly about her ongoing grief. But for the true crime industry this story has generated millions of clicks and drawn unwanted crowds to Guthrie’s neighborhood.
