Sheriff reveals moment Nancy Guthrie case became much darker: 'Something is wrong'
Nancy Guthrie was taken from her home on February 1, and the investigation has now spanned more than 100 days
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos opened up about the harrowing moment that the investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of Today star Savannah Guthrie, turned from a missing person's case to something much darker.
Nancy was reported missing from her home in Tucson, Arizona, on February 1, and was last seen by her daughter, Annie Guthrie, and her son-in-law, Tommaso Cioni. The sheriff shared with People that he was alerted about Nancy's disappearance around 2 p.m. on February 1, roughly two hours after authorities arrived at her property.
Just minutes later, the policeman texted him that the scene "doesn't look right, something is wrong…we're calling homicide".
Nancy has been missing since February 1
"The reason that homicide was called is because they are the investigative unit in charge of missing persons," he explained. "Search and rescue is their operational team that helps assist with these issues."
Authorities found blood droplets on Nancy's front porch that matched her DNA, as well as a mixed sample containing DNA from more than one person, which is currently being studied. "Every day our DNA labs are working with our investigators, and they're coming up with different ideas and different thoughts of how to help them make this DNA work for us," Nanos said.
"How can we do more with what we have? And so that's why I say it is – I think we're getting closer." The sheriff assured that his team was "doing a good job" and was going to solve the case, declaring, "I fully, 100% believe that."

The sheriff shared that the case took a turn two hours after authorities arrived on the sceneNanos also spoke on the Pima County Board of Supervisors' decision not to remove him from office on May 12, explaining that his department could stand to improve in several areas. "I listened to the board, I agree, and they said the department, it was a mess," he told People. "And sometimes you have to just sit back and listen. That's my job. I plan to get a hold of my department. It's just that this has gone on for quite some time."

Chris Nanos hit back at claims the case has gone cold due to lack or arrests or suspects.
He told KOLD there is "absolutely" information about Nancy's disappearance that has not been released to the public.
"It's not done because we got to keep it secret. It's done because we got to protect our case," he explained.
The sheriff then shared his optimism that investigators will find the masked man who took Nancy from her home and was caught on surveillance footage tampering with her doorbell camera.
"I believe at some point in time, we will make an arrest in this case," he continued. "And whoever that individual is, that individual will have a right to a fair and impartial trial."

JIMMY KIMMEL SH0CKS AMERICA: Announces END of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” & A BOLD Move to Canada!
March 24, 2026 – In a shocking announcement that has left his fans and the entire entertainment industry reeling, Jimmy Kimmel has revealed the unthinkable: his iconic late-night talk show, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, is officially coming to an end. This bombshell revelation came as Kimmel, in the middle of his monologue, casually dropped the news: “This will be our final season.” The room went silent—then gasped with a mix of disbelief and nervous applause.
But the surprises didn’t end there.
The Shocking Twist: Kimmel’s Major Life Change
Not only will his beloved show be ending, but Kimmel also announced that he and his family would be leaving the United States for good, packing up and moving to Canada. The statement sent shockwaves through his audience, and fans across the nation were left stunned. “I love this country,” Kimmel said, “but I think it’s time for a change. For my family, for my sanity… and maybe for my blood pressure.”
It’s unclear if Kimmel’s move to Canada is permanent, but he hinted that he may step back from the daily grind of television altogether. Despite his usual humor, Kimmel didn’t shy away from touching on the political polarization and stress that played a role in his decision. He joked about needing to practice saying “sorry” more often in his new home.
The End of an Era in Late-Night TV
Kimmel’s exit comes as part of a larger shift in the late-night television landscape, with declining ratings across the board for network shows and an increasing audience for streaming platforms. Even as Jimmy Kimmel Live! continued to dominate viral moments and social media, the economics of traditional late-night shows have been shifting, and Kimmel’s outspoken commentary on national crises and elections may have played a role in his decision to step away.

When Jimmy Kimmel Live! first aired in 2003, late-night television was dominated by the likes of Jay Leno and David Letterman. Kimmel’s fresh, irreverent approach, including pranks, viral segments like “Celebrities Read Mean Tweets,” and his personal advocacy, won over younger audiences and became a cultural touchstone.
Over the years, Kimmel became known not just for his humor but for using his platform to address serious issues like healthcare, gun violence, and his personal family struggles, including his son’s heart surgery. The show helped elevate viral moments into national conversations, and Kimmel’s influence in both comedy and advocacy was undeniable.

The entertainment world quickly responded to Kimmel’s announcement. Fellow late-night hosts, like Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Fallon, paid tribute to his groundbreaking approach to television. Hollywood stars, musicians, and political figures also expressed their admiration. Even ABC, the network that aired Kimmel’s show for over two decades, issued a statement thanking him for his “excellence, creativity, and cultural impact.”
What’s Next for ABC and Late-Night TV?
With Jimmy Kimmel Live! ending, ABC now faces the challenge of replacing its flagship late-night show. Will the network go in a new direction with a fresh face? Or will the future of late-night TV continue to shift towards streaming platforms, where younger audiences are increasingly flocking?
Kimmel’s Move to Canada: Why Now?
Kimmel’s decision to move to Canada has raised eyebrows, but it’s a natural extension of the frustration he’s expressed over American politics and his personal need for a change of pace. Known for his sarcastic remarks about moving abroad during politically charged times, Kimmel has now made that talk a reality. Canada, with its stable political climate, public healthcare, and vibrant arts scene, has long been a draw for expatriates, and now, it seems, Kimmel is joining the ranks.
Fans React: A Mixed Response
The reactions to Kimmel’s bombshell announcement have been divided. Some see it as a brave move, a step back from the stress of daily TV and a need for personal reflection. Others argue it’s a dramatic, attention-grabbing gesture. Regardless, nearly everyone agrees that the end of Jimmy Kimmel Live! marks the end of an era in late-night television. Clips from the announcement have already gone viral, racking up millions of views.
Kimmel’s Future: What’s Next?
Though Kimmel is stepping away from his nightly TV show, he’s unlikely to disappear entirely. The future holds many possibilities, including producing scripted projects, launching a limited streaming series, writing a memoir, or returning to stand-up comedy. With his ties to Hollywood and Disney, the opportunities will certainly continue to come.
The Final Word: The End of an Iconic Era
For millions of viewers who grew up watching Jimmy Kimmel Live! late into the night, the end of the show feels personal. From viral pranks to moving monologues, Kimmel’s influence on late-night TV and American pop culture is profound. As he steps away from the spotlight, it’s clear that his legacy will continue to impact the future of late-night television for years to come.
China Makes Big Announcement As Trump Arrives For Summit
Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met on Wednesday with his Pakistani Foreign Minister Mohammad Ishaq Dar and pushed for a peace solution between the U.S. and Iran.
Speaking on the phone, Yi told Dar that Pakistan should “maintain confidence” and “step up mediation efforts” between the U.S. and Iran.
The comments came mere moments before President Donald Trump landed in Beijing for a visit with President Xi Jinping.
Dar has been one of the principal figures in Pakistan, serving as an intermediary between Tehran and Washington.
Despite recent tensions over Pakistan allowing Iranian military aircraft to remain parked on tarmacs in the country, Pakistan has continued trying to cajole American and Iranian negotiators back into peace talks.
Those talks appeared to have been mostly stopped as Trump landed in China two days after the U.S. president dismissed Tehran’s answer to the latest American peace offering as “totally unacceptable.”
Wang “commended Pakistan for encouraging dialogue between the United States and Iran and for assisting in extending the provisional ceasefire,” a Chinese Foreign Ministry official said in a summary of the phone discussion.
He expressed hope that “Pakistan will maintain confidence, step up mediation efforts, and contribute to properly resolving the issue of opening the Strait of Hormuz and the early restoration of regional peace, which is also the common aspiration of the international community.”
“China will continue to support Pakistan’s mediation efforts and make its own contribution toward this end,” spokesperson Lin Jian said.
Trump landed in China early on Wednesday morning.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk is one of several business executives accompanying Trump on Air Force One as he travels to Beijing for the summit.
Fox News host Sean Hannity is also on the flight, as is Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, who was not included on the original guest list and joined as a last-minute addition during a refueling stop in Anchorage, Alaska.
Trump confirmed in a post on Truth Social that Huang was aboard Air Force One.
The US president also mentioned several other executives who were part of the official trip, including Tim Cook from Apple, Larry Fink from BlackRock, Stephen Schwarzman from Blackstone, Kelly Ortberg from Boeing, Brian Sikes from Cargill, Jane Fraser from Citigroup, Larry Culp from GE Aerospace, David Solomon from Goldman Sachs, Sanjay Mehrotra from Micron, and Cristiano Amon from Qualcomm.
Trump also noted in his Truth Social post that the first thing he would bring up with Xi is to “open up” China to American businesses, and that a CNBC story claiming that Huang was not included in the business leader entourage was wrong.
Trade, Taiwan, the Iran war, and artificial intelligence are expected to be the main topics of discussion during the upcoming meeting, as officials from both sides have spent months negotiating the details in preparation.
Trump first announced his plans to visit China during his meeting with Xi at the Busan summit in South Korea on October 30.
Beijing has indicated that it will prioritize U.S. policy on Taiwan during the talks, while Trump is expected to advocate for progress on trade and the security of the Strait of Hormuz, according to reports.
Air Force One landed in Beijing, China, at approximately 7:51 a.m. ET (Wednesday morning U.S. time and Thursday morning in China) at Beijing Capital International Airport. The plane taxied for about eight minutes before the doors opened for the official red-carpet arrival.
