On Sunday, Feb. 22, volunteers got together to conduct a search for Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of Today anchor Savannah Guthrie, who went missing three weeks ago.
About a dozen or so people met in the parking lot of a Hobby Lobby in the area, according to a photo shared by investigative reporter Jonathan Lee Riches, better known as JLR. The group set out with maps in hand, ready to look for anything that could help find Nancy, or the person or persons responsible for her disappearance.
JLR shared some additional photos of items that have been found thus far this morning, including a backpack and some clothing.

— JLR© (@JLRINVESTIGATES) February 22, 2026The people involved in the search have apparently disregarded a stern warning from the Pima County Sheriff's Department about private search parties.
"Volunteer search groups have inquired about being in the area. Per the Sheriff, they were asked to please give investigators the space they need to do their work," the department posted on X on Saturday, Feb. 21.
"We appreciate their concern, and we all want to find Nancy, but this work is best left to professionals. PCSD has volunteer opportunities if they wish to get involved with the department," the message continued. "Private property laws apply and it is up to each individual property owner to grant permission for someone to search their property."
