'Someone is going to recognize' masked person at Nancy Guthrie's house
Los Angeles Times ^ | Feb. 10, 2026 10:05 AM PT | Richard Winton, Hannah Fry

Investigators have released a surveillance photo showing a potential suspect in the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping investigation on Tuesday, marking a major update in the unusual case.

The image was circulated less than a day after a ransom deadline to pay Guthrie’s abductors $6 million in bitcoin passed with no sign of the 84-year-old.

The FBI said Monday that it had not identified any suspects in the bizarre kidnapping case, which began ten days ago when Guthrie’s family reported her missing after she did not show up for church and wasn’t at her Tucson home. There has been no evidence Guthrie is taking the medication she needs or proof from kidnappers that she’s still alive.

There has been no indication any ransom was paid and the FBI also said it is not aware of any communication between the abductors and the Guthrie family.

The image of a masked individual appears to have been recovered off a Nest camera located outside Guthrie’s home. Law enforcement has been working for days to recover any images or video footage that may have been “lost, corrupted, or inaccessible due to a variety of factors–including the removal of recording devices,” said FBI Director Kash Patel.

Patel said in a post on X that the video was recovered from “residual data located in backend systems.”

The images show an individual wearing a full face mask, dark gloves and a backpack appearing to tamper with the camera at Guthrie’s front door the morning of her disappearance. Patel said the person was armed.

The surveillance photos marks the first major development released to the public in the case that has baffled law enforcement experts for more than a week.

Pleas from the family for Guthrie’s return have become increasingly urgent as time has passed.

Someone will recognize him, but it probably won’t be anyone who will turn him in.

Any camera connected to the Internet has to go through a server somewhere, whether you subscribe or not.

Thank you. I’m sure you are right. The danger of outsourcing - to a tyrant.

But, on the bright side, Americans got to save a nickel!

It is coincidentally sucking media attention from the Epstein release and Clinton testimony.

Not to mention Guthrie being married to a Clinton operative - who is strangely not in the videos.

ABC Tucson reporting they have someone in custody ... no sign of Nancy, as of yet.

Someone working at circle K reported a vehicle of interest.
If circle K clerk saw a guy wearing the same coat, had the back pack, etc, that looked like same as FBI video and called cops, maybe circle K has video of him without a mask or his plates and type of vehicle he drove.

They can question him, but if he says he wants a lawyer, it may not be much info that they get right away.

I would love to see Nancy returned to her family, alive if at all possible. Praying for all of them.

Apparently it wasn't "lost," or "inaccessible" after all. And it only took the greatest LEA in the world 10 days to recover 4 still pics from the "video recording devices."

RE: Tim Walz.

Ha.

And the odd gait and goofy look of always being surprised by common things. And under those Nitrile gloves and the other pair are jazz hands.

I’d really like to know exactly why the media is doing this? That’s the real story. Are they getting massive increases in their ratings so they can sell more advertising? If they are getting better ratings, it sure shows how vapid and shallow their viewers are.
Voter ID, Dem fraud, organized insurrection, Chinese influence among politicians as well as other serious issues. Viewers don’t care?

“””Are they getting massive increases in their ratings so they can sell more advertising? If they are getting better ratings, it sure shows how vapid and shallow their viewers are.””””””

Of course the real reason they are running 24/7 with the Guthrie story is to distract from the Epstein thing. /s

It is a distraction all right from real news like dem corruption, voter fraud and Epstein.
But it seems bizarre that even the networks leaning right is doing this. I doubt this is good for ratings.
