Nancy Guthrie missing update February 17 2026 – Day 17 of the shocking abduction of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, mother of TODAY show anchor Savannah Guthrie, from her Tucson, Arizona home. In this urgent No Contest episode, our attorney and former law enforcement officer break down the latest twists in the Nancy Guthrie case.

Key revelations: Glove DNA yields NO matches in CODIS national database (and doesn't match unknown home DNA) – what this dead end means for the investigation. FBI secures a federal warrant for a major search near the scene, but reports of friction between FBI and Pima County Sheriff's Office raise questions about coordination in this high-profile kidnapping.

Another anonymous Bitcoin ransom demand hits TMZ (the fourth so far) – our experts explain why paying ransom could be dangerous and counterproductive, per FBI protocols. We dive into the real motive: Is it a botched burglary gone wrong, personal grudge, fame-related obsession tied to Savannah Guthrie, or something else? No leading theory yet, but we break down why some options are more likely than others.

The Bluetooth "sniffing" tech – FBI deploys advanced signal sniffers (including helicopter-mounted devices) to hunt Nancy Guthrie's pacemaker MAC address for location clues. Why going public with this high-tech tool was likely a misstep that could tip off the suspect and what it could have forced them to do.

Plus: The 16 total gloves collected near the home – most discarded by volunteers and searchers, contaminating the scene and complicating forensics...was it sloppiness or was there a deeper meaning? Why limited camera footage in the Catalina Foothills area (no widespread surveillance) is hurting the case, and what investigators are doing next.

Attorney insights on warrants, evidence admissibility, motive in prosecutions, and why family clearance shifts focus. Former LEO perspective on suspects inserting themselves into investigations, additional possibilities with the DNA on the glove, and why the Sheriff may have wanted to take a step back once the FBI came in.
