BREAKING NEWS: Nancy Guthrie, 84, mother of Savannah Guthrie, was found dead, and her stepfather, Tommaso Cioni, has been arrested for her murder. The case, initially thought to be a kidnapping, was revealed to be a shocking family betrayal with motives rooted in greed and a will dispute. How could someone they loved do this? 📌 Full story in the comments 👇

The widely shared viral post about “case closed,” a dead victim, and an arrest tied to her son-in-law is not supported by credible news reporting. Here’s what reputable outlets have confirmed:

Nancy Guthrie, an 84-year-old Arizona woman and the mother of NBC Today anchor Savannah Guthrie, disappeared from her Tucson area home on January 31, 2026. Investigators believe she was taken from her residence during the night. Evidence at the scene, including bloodstains that matched her DNA, led authorities to treat the situation as a possible abduction rather than a voluntary disappearance.

As of the most recent reliable reporting:

No arrest has been made in relation to the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie. Law enforcement agencies — including the Pima County Sheriff’s Office and the FBI — continue to investigate leads and follow tips. Police have conducted searches in neighborhoods, reviewed surveillance footage, and interviewed people linked to the case, but no suspect has been publicly named or charged in connection with Guthrie’s disappearance.

Separate from the disappearance, federal prosecutors charged a man named Derrick Callella, 42, of California, for allegedly sending fake ransom text messages to Guthrie’s family. He is accused of sending those messages — including false bitcoin ransom demands — to relatives during the ongoing investigation. Authorities say he is not connected to the alleged kidnapping and is not suspected of involvement in Guthrie’s disappearance. Callella was released under pretrial conditions.

Law enforcement released doorbell footage showing a masked individual carrying a backpack near Guthrie’s home on the night she was abducted, and an extensive public search effort remains underway.

Why Misinformation Spread

Social media and unverified websites have circulated versions of the story claiming:

The case has been “closed” Nancy Guthrie was found dead A family member was arrested

None of these assertions are backed by credible news reports or official statements as of now.

status: Nancy Guthrie is missing and presumed abducted.

Official investigation: Ongoing by multiple law enforcement agencies.

arrests: A man was charged for unrelated fake ransom texts — not for hurting Guthrie.

no public confirmation of her being found or of any suspects in custody connected to the disappearance.
