Nancy Guthrie search gets creepy update as close friends ‘keep quiet’ as hunt continues
As the search for Nancy Guthrie continues three months after she was reported missing, a new update has been shared.
According to NewsNation’s Brian Entin, the Guthrie family has allegedly asked Nancy’s close friends not to speak publicly as the investigation unfolds in and around Arizona.
“We’ve heard from several [sources] that the Guthrie family has asked Nancy’s close friends to keep things private right now,” Brian told Parade. It comes after her famous daughter Savannah Guthrie returned to NBC’s Today show after temporarily stepping down since her mom vanished.
“You haven’t seen a lot of her close friends come forward and talk about her, which is different than other cases,” he added.
Entin also pointed to growing unease among Tucson residents as a reason for the silence. He explained, “I also think people here are still nervous about the whole thing.

“For us covering it, we live in different states, but people who live here in Tucson, especially in the neighborhood, these kinds of things don’t happen.
“And the fact that there’s no new information and they have no idea who did it, I think people are just still nervous about the whole thing, which might be why you don’t see as many people talking about it,” he continued.
As the hunt enters its third month, Brian claimed not everyone has been willing to speak out. “It’s been interesting to see who wants to talk and who doesn’t,” the reporter went on.
He then noted that Nancy’s church friends were among the first to raise concern when she stopped showing up and answering calls. “No one has said anything,” Brian said.
