Authorities planned to enter the DNA profile into a database in an effort to identify the person. The bureau said in a statement that the gloves appeared to match a pair worn by the man who was captured on Guthrie\u2019s doorbell camera on the night she was abducted. The F.B.I. added that most of the other gloves recovered during its searches were those of investigators who had discarded them while conducting sweeps near the home.Feb. 15, 2026, 2:16 p.m. ETFeb. 15, 2026Jack HealyWhile neighbors have set out a memorial of yellow roses for Ms. Guthrie, they have also expressed their annoyance at the nuisance of the scene by putting out \u201cNo Trespassing\u201d signs and placing traffic cones at the front of their driveways.ImageCredit...Ty O'Neil\/Associated PressFeb. 15, 2026, 2:14 p.m. ETFeb. 15, 2026Jack HealyDozens of news media trucks are camped out on Guthrie\u2019s street, some for so long that they\u2019ve now brought car batteries and portable generators to keep their equipment running.

She was not allowed to be inside her home as investigators searched, Mr. Curl said, so the woman instead spent the night at Mr. Curl\u2019s house.Once the investigators left the neighborhood in the early hours of Saturday, Mr. Curl said he went next door with his neighbor to help her lock up her house. There, he said, he saw a copy of a federal search warrant in the living room. He said the warrant mentioned the Guthrie case.\u201cShe had no idea what they were asking about,\u201d Mr. Curl said of his neighbor. \u201cShe had no information about the disappearance or any idea why they were focusing on their house.\u201dThe woman whose house was searched declined to speak on Saturday, and it remains unclear how the search is connected with Ms. Guthrie\u2019s disappearance two weeks ago.\u201cShe\u2019s really distraught,\u201d Mr. Curl said of his neighbor. She told him on Saturday afternoon that her son had been questioned and released and was now with friends.No arrests have been made in Ms. Guthrie\u2019s disappearance, and investigators said the flurry of activity late Friday into early Saturday at two sites not far from Ms. Guthrie\u2019s home in the Catalina Foothills was related to tracking down leads.Chris Nanos, the sheriff leading the investigation, has said that law enforcement officials have gotten more than 32,000 leads since Ms. Guthrie, the mother of the \u201cToday\u201d show host Savannah Guthrie, was taken from her home on Feb. 1.Show moreLoad 1 more postBackground on the SearchFeb. 15, 2026, 7:28 p.m. ETFeb. 15, 2026Christina MoralesUseful camera footage in Guthrie case proves elusive.ImageNancy Guthrie with her youngest child, Savannah, a co-host of \u201cToday,\u201d NBC\u2019s long-running morning show.Credit...NBC, via ReutersCameras, so common throughout society that their presence is often hardly noticed, have been key tools for law enforcement as they work to solve crimes.Video footage proved critical in the search for Luigi Mangione, charged with the murder of Brian Thompson, the UnitedHealthcare chief executive, outside a New York City hotel. Images released by the F.B.I. helped locate the perpetrators of the Boston Marathon bombing attack in 2013. And surveillance video also helped police identify a suspect in the fatal stabbings in 2022 of four University of Idaho students.So it is no wonder that people have questioned why there is not more video footage to aid the authorities as they investigate the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of the \u201cToday\u201d show anchor Savannah Guthrie, from her home in Tucson, Ariz.\u201cEveryone\u2019s got this assumption that everyone\u2019s going to have a Ring camera, and that everyone\u2019s Ring camera will be pointed toward the street,\u201d said Steve Garvy of the Garvy Group, a risk consultant in Phoenix. \u201cBut in these neighborhoods, it may not be as ubiquitous, and they may not be positioned in an obvious way.\u201cIf I was law enforcement, I would be frustrated,\u201d Mr. Garvy said.It has been more than two weeks since Nancy Guthrie was reported missing in a case that has captivated Americans, especially those caring for aging parents. The authorities have sifted through thousands of tips, reviewed purported ransom notes, viewed thousands of videos and recovered footage from Ms. Guthrie\u2019s doorbell camera that showed a masked individual with gloves at the porch of her home shortly before her disappearance.Still, after fruitless searches and interviews with at least two people in the past week who were later released, there were still no known leads as of Sunday.And although Ms. Guthrie\u2019s neighbors have provided camera footage to authorities, the Pima County Sheriff\u2019s Office has asked for more recordings, specifically those taken between Jan. 1 and Feb. 1.But in this unincorporated desert community in Tucson, camera footage of use to investigators has proved to be elusive. That is largely because of local ordinances and how the neighborhood, called Catalina Foothills, was designed.The community has deed restrictions that require each home to have one acre of property and to be set back at least 30 feet from the road, said Walter Branson, who has lived in the neighborhood since 2019.The desert environment also means that camera views could be obscured by lush vegetation and cactuses. And a local ordinance regulates light pollution, so residents can see the stars in the night sky, Mr. Branson said. That means there are no streetlights and residents keep their outdoor lights low, hampering the ability of cameras to pick up activity once the sun goes down.\u201cWe\u2019d actually be surprised if someone\u2019s doorbell picked up anything,\u201d Mr. Branson said, adding that like at his own home, where he enters from its side, some cameras do not even point toward the street.Unless there are neighbors of Ms. Guthrie who have high-quality infrared cameras, several experts in crime and surveillance cameras said that it is unlikely that police will find good nighttime images.Adam Scott Wandt, a professor at the John Jay College of Criminal College, said there may be more video that is not being released to the public.Mr. Wandt said that he believes authorities are carefully evaluating what types of images they release to the public as they review thousands of videos. There is not a lack of footage, he said, just little that is currently available to the public.\u201cIt\u2019s common in a kidnapping case to not release evidence that might affect the victim,\u201d Mr. Wandt said. \u201cIt could upset a very delicate situation.\u201dThe broad availability of cameras means that people have come to assume they can rely on them for solving crimes in the same way that people felt overly reassured by DNA evidence, said Bryanna Fox, a former F.B.I. special agent and a professor in the Department of Criminology at the University of South Florida.Many factors could affect the acquisition of good images, she said, like camera quality, storage capacity, how color is captured at night, battery levels or if the camera is even turned on at all.Ms. Guthrie\u2019s own doorbell camera did not have a subscription to store her footage. And even if people do pay to store their videos, Ms. Fox said that it is costly to stockpile. Businesses nearby may have overridden their footage within two days, and most neighbors may keep their own videos for anywhere from 10 to 30 days.\u201cThis neighborhood design, in a way, had a lack of deterrents for burglars,\u201d Ms. Fox said.Show moreFeb. 10, 2026, 5:31 p.m. ETFeb. 10, 2026The New York TimesA timeline of Nancy Guthrie\u2019s disappearance.ImageThe authorities in Pima County, Ariz., have repeatedly closed and reopened the crime scene at Nancy Guthrie\u2019s house near Tucson since she was reported missing on Feb. 1.Credit...Rebecca Noble\/ReutersFor more than two weeks, the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of the \u201cToday\u201d show host Savannah Guthrie, has confounded the authorities. And because it involves the possible abduction of a celebrity\u2019s relative, it has captivated much of the nation.In the latest developments, the F.B.I. said that gloves found about two miles from Ms. Guthrie\u2019s home had an unknown man\u2019s DNA on them, and that it would put the DNA profile into a database in an effort to identify the person.The F.B.I. said that the gloves appeared to match those worn by the man who was captured on Ms. Guthrie\u2019s doorbell camera on the night she was abducted.Black-and-white surveillance video and images from Ms. Guthrie\u2019s doorstep showed a person wearing a ski mask, gloves and a backpack early on the morning of Feb. 1.Here is a timeline of the major developments in the case.9:48 p.m., Jan 31.Nancy Guthrie Is Last SeenJust after 5:30 p.m., Ms. Guthrie took an Uber to the nearby home of her older daughter, Annie, and her son-in-law, Tommaso Cioni. The three spent about four hours together before Mr. Cioni drove her home.Ms. Guthrie\u2019s garage door opened at 9:48 p.m. and closed two minutes later, according to the authorities.Mr. Cioni watched to make sure Ms. Guthrie made it safely inside. That was the last time anyone in her family saw or heard from her.1:47-2:28 a.m., Feb. 1Ms. Guthrie\u2019s Front Door Camera Is DisconnectedMs. Guthrie\u2019s front door camera was disconnected at 1:47 a.m. About 25 minutes later, a camera somewhere on her property detected motion, but recorded no video, because she did not have a subscription to the device\u2019s service provider.At 2:28 a.m., about 15 minutes after the camera was set off, Ms. Guthrie\u2019s pacemaker lost contact with her cellphone, which investigators would later find inside the house, suggesting this may have been about the time she was taken.ImageChris Nanos, the Pima County sheriff, said that his deputies saw \u201csomething at the home that didn\u2019t sit well,\u201d and that it became clear that Ms. Guthrie had been forced out against her will.Credit...Jan Sonnenmair\/Getty ImagesFeb. 1, morningMs. Guthrie Is Reported MissingWhen Ms. Guthrie did not arrive at a friend\u2019s house to watch a live-streamed church service on Sunday, the friend notified Ms Guthrie\u2019s family. Family members went to her house just before noon to check on her, discovered she was missing and called 911.The authorities found her phone, wallet, hearing aid, daily medication and car. At her front stoop, they found an empty mount where a doorbell camera had once hung, and on the tile below they saw spatters of blood, which DNA analysis later confirmed to be Ms. Guthrie\u2019s.Sheriff Chris Nanos of Pima County, Ariz., told The New York Times that investigators found even more worrying signs of violence at Ms. Guthrie\u2019s home.\u201cThere were things at that home that were of concern,\u201d he said. \u201cThat scene, there were things that, I thought, this doesn\u2019t sit well.\u201dHe declined to elaborate, but investigators spent the following days combing through the home, its garage and the surrounding scrubland.Feb. 2A Ransom Note ArrivesRoughly 24 hours after the sheriff\u2019s department first posted a missing-person bulletin for Ms. Guthrie, a Tucson television station, KOLD, received a note claiming to be from her kidnapper. The station forwarded it to the authorities.The celebrity gossip site TMZ, which received a copy the next morning, reported that the letter demanded millions of dollars in Bitcoin for the release of Ms. Guthrie.Harvey Levin, the outlet\u2019s founder, described the letter on a broadcast as \u201cvery well constructed.\u201dFeb. 3Savannah Guthrie Withdraws From NBC\u2019s Olympics CoverageNBC Sports said Savannah Guthrie would not be part of the network\u2019s coverage of the Winter Olympics in Italy.

We need to know, without a doubt, that she is alive, and that you have her.\u201dFeb. 6Another Note and Another VideoKOLD received another message from the supposed kidnappers. The message, which the station forwarded to the police and did not describe publicly, came from a different IP address than the ransom note, but the senders appeared to have used the same methods to mask their location and identity, the station said.The next day, the Guthrie siblings released another video. It was 20 seconds long and cryptic.Savannah Guthrie, speaking without a visible script, said into the camera: \u201cWe received your message, and we understand. We beg you now to return our mother to us so that we can celebrate with her. This is the only way we will have peace.\u201dFeb. 9Savannah Guthrie Says Her Family Is at \u2018An Hour of Desperation\u2019As the search entered its second week, Savannah Guthrie implored the public for help in finding her mother, saying in an Instagram video that she and her siblings believed that she was \u201cstill out there.\u201d\u201cWe are at an hour of desperation,\u201d she said.Feb. 10Surveillance Images Show a Masked FigureNew images and videos released showed a masked, armed person at Nancy Guthrie\u2019s doorstep on the night she was abducted, the first significant break in the investigation.The black-and-white footage, released by the F.B.I. and the Pima County Sheriff\u2019s Department, depicts a person wearing a ski mask, gloves, a backpack and what appears to be a holstered handgun outside Ms. Guthrie\u2019s home, just north of Tucson.Late in the day, the authorities detained a main for questioning in the case but released him early on Feb. 11.Feb. 13Officers Investigate a Residence Near Ms. Guthrie\u2019s HomeThe police blocked off a street and investigated a residence a short drive from both Nancy Guthrie\u2019s home and the home of her older daughter and son-in-law, the Pima County Sheriff\u2019s Department said.Several law-enforcement vehicles were seen at the residence, including a sheriff\u2019s department forensics team truck.Sheriff Nanos said investigators had obtained DNA from Ms. Guthrie\u2019s property. A department statement said the DNA did not belong to anyone in close contact with Ms. Guthrie.Feb. 14Investigators Focus on a Range RoverNot long after midnight on Saturday, deputies and F.B.I. investigators converged on a Culver\u2019s parking lot and focused on a gray Range Rover.The location was about a five-minute drive away from the residential neighborhood they sealed off a few hours earlier, although it was unclear if the activity was related to the Guthrie case.Investigators photographed the Range Rover inside and out and unfurled a sheet to shield it from view. A tow truck later removed the vehicle.Feb. 15Unknown DNA Found in GlovesVideoDNA Found on Gloves as Guthrie\u2019s Daughter Makes New PleaThe F.B.I. said gloves found near Nancy Guthrie\u2019s home carried a man\u2019s DNA.

Recovered footage from her doorbell camera showed a masked person arriving at her home in the early hours of Feb. 1, around the same time the camera was removed.Though the footage was one of the first true breaks in the case, no arrests have been made.Here\u2019s what we know.Police seek to match DNA found in gloves.The F.B.I. on Sunday said that gloves found about two miles from Ms. Guthrie\u2019s home had an unknown man\u2019s DNA on them, and that it would put the DNA profile into a database in an effort to identify the person.The F.B.I. said that the gloves appeared to match those worn by the man who was captured on Ms. Guthrie\u2019s doorbell camera on the night she was abducted.The F.B.I. added that most of the other gloves recovered during its searches were those of investigators who had discarded them while conducting sweeps near the home.On Friday, a sheriff\u2019s department spokeswoman said that investigators had found DNA on Nancy Guthrie\u2019s property that was neither hers nor that of anyone in \u201cclose contact with her.\u201d The police did not say where the DNA was found.A flurry of activity happened two miles from Nancy Guthrie\u2019s home.Late on Friday night, law enforcement officials swarmed an upscale subdivision two miles from Nancy Guthrie\u2019s home in the Catalina Hills area of Tucson, searching a house as well as a Range Rover parked at a nearby Culver\u2019s.The Pima County Sheriff\u2019s Department said that a federal court-ordered search warrant was executed at the home. A traffic stop was also conducted, and a person was questioned but there were no arrests.The police also investigated a house on the edge of the Catalina Foothills neighborhood, a short drive from Nancy Guthrie\u2019s home and the home of her older daughter and son-in-law, the sheriff\u2019s department said.The authorities briefly detained a man but released him after questioning.The authorities released surveillance images of a masked suspect.ImageThis image was recovered from cameras at the home of Nancy Guthrie the morning that she was reported missing near Tucson, Ariz.Credit...Pima County Sheriff's DepartmentThe authorities released surveillance footage from Ms. Guthrie\u2019s doorstep showing a person standing at her front door, wearing a ski mask, gloves and a backpack on the morning of her disappearance.The footage showed the person approaching Ms. Guthrie\u2019s doorbell camera, blocking it with a gloved hand and then appearing to try to use some leaves to obscure the camera.A timeline, but few clues.The investigation into Ms. Guthrie\u2019s disappearance began after she failed to arrive at a friend\u2019s house to watch a live-streamed church service on Feb. 1.Early in the investigation, Chris Nanos, the Pima County sheriff, described Ms. Guthrie\u2019s home as \u201ca crime scene.\u201dMs. Guthrie has limited mobility and requires medication every 24 hours, but is mentally sharp, according to the authorities.Ms. Guthrie\u2019s pacemaker app showed that it had been disconnected from her phone at 2:28 a.m. on the night of her disappearance, indicating she was no longer near the phone, which was left inside her house.ImageMs. Guthrie was described in a missing person\u2019s notice as \u201cvulnerable.\u201dCredit...Pima County Sheriff\u2019s Department, via Associated PressThe Guthries said they would pay a ransom.Savannah Guthrie and her siblings have released a series of videos pleading with whoever is involved in their mother\u2019s disappearance to contact them.They have also said that they were willing to pay for their mother\u2019s return.\u201cWe still have hope and we still believe,\u201d Savannah Guthrie said in a video posted Sunday, two weeks after her mother disappeared. \u201cI wanted to say to whoever has her or knows where she is that it\u2019s never too late.\u201dThe F.B.I. said that it was \u201cnot aware of any continued communication between the Guthrie family and suspected kidnappers.\u201dOfficials were investigating a message.The authorities said in the week after her disappearance that they were reviewing a message sent to a Tucson television station.They did not confirm whether it was related to a purported ransom note sent to several news outlets after Ms. Guthrie\u2019s disappearance, which demanded millions of dollars in Bitcoin.Savannah Guthrie withdrew from NBC\u2019s Olympics coverage.Savannah Guthrie, 54, is best known as one of the anchors of the NBC morning show \u201cToday,\u201d a job she has held since 2012.She joined NBC News in 2007, after working in local news and as a lawyer.

At 84, she was as competitive as ever as she squared off against younger women she had taught how to play.Before they said goodbye on the afternoon of Jan. 30, Ms. Guthrie checked with one of the players, Anne Burnson, making sure that they were still on to watch church at a friend\u2019s house on Sunday. Their ritual was to gather in the friend\u2019s den and watch a recording of the Manhattan service that Ms. Guthrie\u2019s youngest child, the NBC host Savannah Guthrie, had attended earlier that morning. They even had wafers and grape juice on hand for communion.But Nancy Guthrie, always punctual, did not arrive at 11 a.m. on Feb. 1. Her friends texted, then called. They contacted Ms. Guthrie\u2019s older daughter, Annie, who rushed to Ms. Guthrie\u2019s home. It was empty.Now, nearly two weeks after Ms. Guthrie\u2019s disappearance, which the authorities have said they are investigating as an abduction, her friends and family say they are refusing to give up hope of finding her alive.Her toughness has always surfaced in difficult moments, like when her husband died suddenly in 1988, or when budget cuts threatened a vital public health service at the university where she worked, or even two days before her disappearance, when she insisted on walking to the end of her gravel driveway to get the mail, even if a friend had to help.When they discuss Ms. Guthrie now, friends stop themselves when they accidentally use the past tense. \u201cNancy was \u2014 is,\u201d they say.ImageNancy Guthrie with her daughter Annie as they celebrated Christmas last year.Credit...via Melissa ManasWith the search for Ms. Guthrie in its 13th day, her closest friends \u2014 some speaking publicly for the first time \u2014 are trying to avoid fixating on the ominous details.

They married in 1963, and the family moved to Australia, where Mr. Guthrie worked as a mining engineer.They moved to Arizona and bought a low-slung home in 1975 in the cactus-studded Catalina Foothills just north of Tucson, a home Ms. Guthrie has lived in for more than 50 years.She taught Bible study classes, with friends saying she had a special ability to make the lessons applicable to everyday life.\u201cShe\u2019s been a mentor and a teacher and someone that\u2019s really quietly shaped the lives of countless people here,\u201d said Vicki Edwards, 68, who became close friends with Ms. Guthrie after meeting her at one such class in 1987. It was her den where the friends watched their Sunday services.In 1988, Mr. Guthrie died of a heart attack, what Savannah Guthrie called a \u201cstark dividing line\u201d in the family\u2019s story. She was 16 at the time.Nancy Guthrie had never worked full time outside the home, but she landed a job at a small business newspaper, The Daily Territorial, eventually parlaying it into a career at the University of Arizona, which Savannah Guthrie attended, spending college close to home.In the 1980s, Nancy Guthrie also brought her own mother and her older brother, Pierce, who had Down syndrome, into a guesthouse on her property.Ms. Burnson, 66, a retired teacher who has known Ms. Guthrie for more than half of her life, recalls how Ms. Guthrie came to her home one night in 1996 after Ms. Burnson\u2019s husband died. Ms. Guthrie told Ms. Burnson to sit on her lap and consoled her.Colleagues who knew Ms. Guthrie from her time at the University of Arizona said she was a skilled communicator who never chased publicity. When funding cuts threatened to shut down a poison-information center in the mid-1990s, she plunged into a campaign to gather 20,000 signatures and urge Arizona politicians to save it, according to Jacqueline Sharkey, a former colleague who organized the effort. It succeeded.Ms. Guthrie left her job at the University of Arizona in 2007, and spent several years afterward serving on an advisory committee for the journalism school. Dave Cuillier, a former director of that school, said that Ms. Guthrie kept him \u201cin check.\u201d\u201cShe was quick to correct me,\u201d Mr. Cuillier said. \u201cShe was just one of those people who you really appreciated getting to work with.\u201dFor much of her time in Arizona, she embraced the outdoors \u2014 playing tennis, hiking and joining spin classes. She enjoyed cooking for friends and eating out, and would sometimes see movies at an art house cinema.But as she aged, things became more difficult. She told one friend, Kris Federhar, that she no longer felt comfortable going to a movie theater up a flight of stairs, only half-jokingly referring to it as a fire trap. She had a pacemaker and relied on daily medication, and she began using a cane and powerful hearing aids. In recent years, she often stayed at home, where she kept the windows open in the summer, wrote in her journal on her patio, played Wordle and read books that publishers had sent to Savannah.But she was still sharp, friends said, and rarely complained about her back pain or other problems. And she still had a buzzing social life, never missing a monthly book club meeting.ImageMs. Guthrie with her youngest child, Savannah, a co-host of \u201cToday,\u201d NBC\u2019s long-running morning show.Credit...via NBCOn Jan. 26, the day before her birthday, Ms. Federhar dropped off a balloon and treats on her doorstep. The next day, Ms. Burnson, who has family roots in New Orleans, set out some nice crystal, cooked shrimp and grits and made beignets.At the mahjong game two days before her disappearance, Ms. Guthrie was dressed casually on a chilly day, laughing with her friends and, as usual, playing strategically.The next evening, Ms. Guthrie had dinner and played games with her daughter Annie and her son-in-law Tommaso Cioni at their home before Mr. Cioni drove her back to her house.Hours later, her doorbell camera captured the masked man at her door.Messages Ms. Guthrie appears to have posted on the neighborhood app Nextdoor in recent years showed that she was keenly interested in the desert, and wondered whether javelinas would eat her periwinkle.She wrote four years ago that she was interested in buying a doorbell camera and asked about the best brand. She did not indicate she was concerned for her safety. She said she just wanted to see what animals might wander by at night.Show moreFeb. 13, 2026, 5:48 a.m. ETFeb. 13, 2026Anushka PatilTips flood in after video of the Guthrie kidnapping suspect is aired.ImageInvestigators searching the edges of Nancy Guthrie\u2019s street in the Catalina Foothills in Tucson, Ariz., on Wednesday.Credit...Rebecca Noble\/ReutersIt was an affecting plea from a face familiar to millions of American households: \u201cWe are at an hour of desperation, and we need your help.\u201dThe video message from Savannah Guthrie, released more than a week into a largely fruitless search for her 84-year-old mother, was a direct call to action to the far-reaching audience she has built as one of the country\u2019s most-watched morning show hosts.\u201cI\u2019m coming on just to ask you, not just for your prayers,\u201d she said, \u201cbut no matter where you are \u2014 even if you\u2019re far from Tucson \u2014 if you see anything, if you hear anything, if there\u2019s anything at all that seems strange to you, that you report to law enforcement.\u201dReport they did. The sheriff\u2019s department in Pima County, Ariz., has received about 21,000 calls since Ms. Guthrie\u2019s mother, Nancy, was reported missing on Feb. 1. More than 4,000 came in during the first 24 hours after the F.B.I. released the first images of a masked, armed suspect on Nancy Guthrie\u2019s doorstep on the night she disappeared.Callers have also inundated 88-CRIME, an anonymous tip line in Pima County, with more than 1,200 calls about Ms. Guthrie, said Fabian Pacheco, who oversees the operation for the Pima County Attorney\u2019s Office. The tip line, which forwards leads to the county sheriff\u2019s department, typically receives no more than a couple of dozen tips a day.The F.B.I. said that it had received 13,000 tips on the Guthrie case and released a description of the suspect\u2019s height, build and backpack on Thursday evening, saying investigators hope the information would \u201cconcentrate\u201d the tips being provided by the public. The bureau also increased its reward to $100,000 from $50,000 for information that leads to Ms. Guthrie\u2019s return or the arrest or conviction of anyone involved in her disappearance.But the calls, despite their staggering volume and the several hundred investigators assigned to sift them, have so far yielded few tangible results.The first, and so far only, major break in the investigation was the release of black-and-white footage from Nancy Guthrie\u2019s doorbell camera that showed a person wearing a ski mask, backpack, gloves, and what appeared to be a holstered handgun at the front door of her home near Tucson shortly before she was abducted.The chilling images reinvigorated public interest. But just two hours after posting them to social media, the Pima County Sheriff\u2019s Department followed up with a message beseeching the public to submit only tips they could act on \u2014 not \u201ccommentary.\u201d\u201cThe Pima County Sheriff\u2019s Department recognizes that members of the community may have thoughts, opinions, feelings or questions regarding the Nancy Guthrie case,\u201d the department said. \u201cHowever, 9-1-1 & the PCSD nonemergency line are not the appropriate venue for expressing those views.\u201dThe simple tactic of soliciting tips from the public has led to significant breakthroughs in some criminal cases. In December, it was a tip from Reddit that helped authorities find the gunman in the Brown University shooting nearly a week after he killed two students and a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.Most law enforcement agencies have adjusted to, if not embraced, the need for dedicated personnel and technology to find patterns in the deluge of tips that a high-profile case elicits, particularly from amateur social media sleuths and true crime aficionados, said Michael Alcazar, a retired New York Police Department detective and an adjunct professor at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice.Though 911 lines need to be left open for emergencies, he said the Pima department should not have dissuaded anyone from calling, no matter how daunting the task might be for investigators.\u201cSomebody\u2019s going to provide information \u2014 this is how this case will be solved,\u201d he said. \u201cBecause, whatever Pima County is doing is not working right now.\u201dThe Pima County Sheriff\u2019s Department did not elaborate on the status of the investigation, and the F.B.I. did not respond to requests for comment.Callers to the FBI\u2019s general tip line, 1-800-CALL-FBI, heard a recorded message warning of \u201chigher than normal call volumes and extended wait times.\u201d The tip line filters calls about cases currently highlighted in the news, asking callers to \u201cpress one\u201d if they have information regarding Ms. Guthrie.One caller to the FBI\u2019s line, spurred by the release of images of the suspect, said he was stymied by long wait times on Tuesday night. The caller, Fred Talbott, a retiree in Virginia Beach, said he waited on hold for an hour, hoping to tell investigators that they should attempt to identify the suspect\u2019s jacket, holster and backpack, and track down any retailers who might have sold them.It was \u201ccommon sense\u201d investigative work, Mr. Talbott said. \u201cI\u2019m sure they\u2019ve got great people working on it. But you see, I\u2019m 77 years old, I\u2019m retired. I\u2019m sitting here, I see this thing, I think, \u2018Maybe I can help.\u2019\u201dHe eventually wrote a letter to Kash Patel, director of the F.B.I., and dropped it in the mail.Show more",
