Nancy Guthrie: Kidnapping Gone Wrong or Murder for Hire? | 9 Months Missing

Nine months after Nancy Guthrie disappeared from her Tucson, Arizona, home, where are the answers? The 84-year-old mother of “Today” show anchor Savannah Guthrie was reported missing on February 1, 2026. Despite blood found outside her front door, video of an armed, masked man, and purported ransom notes demanding millions in Bitcoin, her disappearance remains unsolved. In this episode of Drop Dead Serious, Ashleigh Banfield speaks with retired homicide detective Chris McDonough, host of The Interview Room and director of law enforcement relations at the Cold Case Foundation. Chris shares what he and his wife, journalist Karen McDonough, encountered during their trips to Tucson. Ashleigh and Chris debate the ransom notes, whether investigators are putting too much faith in unidentified male DNA, and Chris’s theory that more than one person may have been involved.
