Nancy Guthrie’s house is now a crime scene. The 84-year-old mother of Today show co-host Savannah Guthrie was taken from her house by a masked assailant over three months ago, and to this day, there has been no suspect identified, and we don’t know exactly what happened the night she disappeared. What we do know is that police have recovered DNA from the property, and the investigation continues.
So, it’s no real shock that the house has remained empty. But now, a new development on the property is raising eyebrows. Yes, according to X users, the home is now sporting a very peculiar upgrade.

In a clip circulating on X (formerly Twitter), someone reveals that, “We got chains at Nancy Guthrie’s house,” before zooming in to show that there are indeed chains across the driveway.

People had a lot of opinions about this development, and especially the timing of it. The house had been pretty accessible until recently, after all. “I feel like they should’ve had the drive way closed off from day 1,” someone said in the comments. Another person posted, “They put chains now ? Yet didn’t put up security to investigate a crime scene and keep the property secure until the case was solved. They let family roam the property with multiple guest and didn’t seem to need chains across the drive way. Maybe the property has new owners.”
All of this is speculation, after all. It would be pretty complicated to sell a property that’s still part of an active investigation, and there would be no reason for the family to do so in the first place.
This comes after Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos, confirmed that law enforcement is still actively investigating the case. “Right now, I think our focus is on the tips, the leads and the evidence we have in front of us,” he said. “Digitally — the camera footages as well as biological, the DNA and those types of things.”
Sheriff Nanos went on to explain they’re just trying to get through a lot of information. “There’s thousands and thousands of video out there from intersections and Ring cameras that we have to catalog,” Nanos said. “Maybe it’s all the white trucks are over here, all the red sedans are over here; you’ve gotta have it so that when you do find a suspect … ‘Hey, the suspect is John Doe, we got him,’ now we go and say, ‘Well, what else do we know about John Doe?’”
“I know we have DNA that is unknown who the contributor or depositor is, but I think they’re getting closer to finding out who that was,” Nanos told People. “When the labs tell us, ‘Hey, there’s nothing else we can do,’ well, then maybe we’ve got a problem… we’ve got a cold case… but right now, the labs aren’t telling us that,” he added.
“When you have the best minds of the country working on problems, I think they’re gonna solve them,” Nanos said. “It just takes a while.”
And in the meantime, no one can go into Nancy Guthrie’s house.
