Final sweep of missing Nancy Guthrie’s home points to grim reality as cops ‘prepare to hand property back to her family’
POLICE are set to hand back Nancy Guthrie’s home to her family as the desperate search for her enters its fourth week.
Law enforcement officers hunting for the 84-year-old mother and grandmother first entered her house shortly after she was reported missing on February 1.

For weeks her home in Tucson, Arizona has been a hive of activity, but now it has been reported that officers are preparing to return the home over to her family.
Federal law sources have acknowledged that law enforcement no longer see the need to seal the premises as a crime scene or restrict the family from entering, according to reports by NBC News.
It comes as the FBI and the Pima County Sheriff’s department were spotted at the home on February 25 conducting what is believed to be a final sweep for evidence.
The development into returning the property to the family signals that the investigation into the 84-year-old’s abduction is at a standstill.
“The sheriff’s department and the FBI continue to actively pursue “all viable leads,” the department said Tuesday evening.
Nancy Guthrie was reported missing on February 1 when friends got in touch with her family to let them know she had not turned up for a prayer meet, which was deemed to be out of the ordinary.
She has now been missing for almost a month – 25 days – with authorities yet to identify any suspects.
They did release surveillance footage from Nancy’s Nest camera which showed chilling images of a masked man attempting to cover up cameras.
FINAL SEARCH
Police spent more than two hours in the final hunt for clues on Wednesday.
It is reported that more than 23,000 calls have been made to the FBI tip line since Guthrie was taken, 750 of which came in the first 12 hours after Today show host Savannah Guthrie offered a reward, but despite these attempts at help, Nancy has still not been located.
She was last seen around 9.45pm on January 31 after enjoying dinner with family at her daughter Annie’s home, according to Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos.
Savannah on Tuesday posted a heartbreaking video on Instagram pleading for help finding her 84-year-old mother.
To entice those with knowledge to come forward, Savannah said the family is offering a $1million reward.
