secret 10-second voicemail has just turned the search for Nancy Guthrie into a hunt for a known predator.

A “shattering” voicemail recovered from Nancy Guthrie’s landline has blown the kidnapping case wide open — and it’s sending shockwaves through the investigation into the disappearance of Savannah Guthrie’s beloved 84-year-old mother.

In a chilling twist that has detectives scrambling, authorities have unearthed a haunting 10-second message left on Nancy’s home phone the night before she vanished. The voice — one Nancy clearly recognized — delivered a cryptic, menacing warning that now holds the key to unlocking the mystery of her abduction.

Sources close to the probe say the voicemail explicitly referenced details about the household being empty, suggesting the caller had intimate knowledge of Nancy’s routine and vulnerabilities. “This isn’t random,” one insider told us. “The caller knew exactly when she would be alone — and police are treating it as direct evidence of premeditation.”

The bombshell discovery comes as the Pima County Sheriff’s Department ramps up its frantic search in Tucson, Arizona, classifying Nancy’s upscale Catalina Foothills home as an active crime scene. Signs of forced entry, traces of blood inside and near the front door, and other disturbing evidence have convinced authorities she was taken against her will — possibly dragged from her bed in the ᴅᴇᴀᴅ of night.

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos didn’t mince words during an emotional press conference: “We believe she was abducted. When you’re taken from your bed and you don’t want to go somewhere, that’s an abduction.” He stressed the urgency, revealing Nancy suffers from serious physical ailments and requires daily medication. Without it within 24 hours, her condition could turn fatal.

“She is as sharp as a tack mentally — this is not someone who wandered off,” Nanos insisted. “Her mobility is limited due to age, so the idea she left on her own is simply not credible. Time is critical. We need her back.”

Nancy was last seen Saturday evening, January 31, 2026, at her quiet home near Skyline and Campbell. Family members grew alarmed when she failed to appear at church the next morning — a regular Sunday ritual. A concerned friend checked on her, discovered the unsettling scene, and alerted authorities around noon on February 1.

Investigators quickly descended, processing the residence for clues. Blood evidence has been collected and is undergoing testing, while DNA samples from the home have so far pointed only to Nancy herself. No suspect has been publicly named, but the voicemail has shifted focus toward someone in her circle — or perhaps someone who targeted her because of her famous daughter.

Savannah Guthrie, the beloved co-anchor of NBC’s Today show, has been devastated. In a heartfelt social media post, she pleaded: “Bring her home.” The family remains тιԍнт-lipped, but sources say Savannah is “shattered” by the voicemail revelation, which adds a deeply personal layer to the nightmare.

The FBI has now joined the investigation, offering resources as the search expands across Arizona. Authorities are urging anyone with doorbell camera footage, home security videos, or sightings to come forward immediately. “Review your footage — anything that even looks like her, snap a pH๏τo or video and send it to us,” Nanos appealed.

This case has gripped the nation, blending celebrity heartache with a genuine race against time. Nancy Guthrie isn’t just a statistic — she’s a sharp-minded matriarch, a devoted mother, and grandmother whose life hangs in the balance.

As detectives chase leads from that “shattering” voicemail, the question looms: Who made the call, and what did they know about Nancy’s isolated evening? With every hour that pᴀsses without her medication, the stakes grow higher.

The Pima County Sheriff’s tip line remains open at (520) 351-4900. If you have information — no matter how small — call now. A mother’s life may depend on it.

Trump Warns Iran of ‘Total Obliteration’ if They Try To Harm Him HH

President Donald Trump warned Iran that continued assassination threats made by leaders in Tehran would be met with the country getting “blown up” and “total obliteration.”

“Well, they shouldn’t be doing it but I’ve left notification,” Trump said. “Anything ever happens, we’re going to blow the whole — the whole country’s going to get blown up.”

Biden-era Intelligence officials briefed Trump about the alleged threats against him during his presidential campaign in 2024. Former Attorney General Merrick Garland said the plot was retaliation for the killing of Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani by the U.S. in 2020, during Trump’s first administration.

Despite being briefed by his administration, Trump on Tuesday said President Biden “should have said something” on the matter, adding that presidents should defend each other on such matters.

“But I have very firm instructions,” Trump continued. “Anything happens, they’re going to wipe them off the face of this earth.”

Trump also spoke about the ongoing negotiations between the United States and Iran in Geneva.

“What are you expecting from these Iran talks in Geneva?” a reporter asked Trump aboard Air Force One.

“So, I’ll be involved in those talks indirectly, and they’ll be very important. We’ll see what can happen. Typically, Iran’s a very tough negotiator; they’re good negotiators — or bad negotiators. I would say they’re bad negotiators because we could have had a deal instead of sending the B2s to knock out their nuclear potential. We had to send the B2s. I hope they’re going to be more reasonable. They want to make a deal,” Trump said.

“Have you been told that a deal is next to impossible?” the reporter followed up.

Trump replied, “No. I think they want to make a deal. I don’t think they want the consequences of not making a deal. They want to make a deal.”

WATCH:

Trump previously said that he instructed officials to destroy Iran if they killed him.

The president said this after signing an executive order right after taking office that gave him all the tools he needed to talk to Iran’s government and put as much pressure on Tehran as possible.

“They haven’t done that and that would be a terrible thing for them to do,” Trump said at the time. “Not because of me — if they did that, they would be obliterated. That would be the end. I’ve left instructions, if they do it, they get obliterated, there won’t be anything left. And, they shouldn’t be able to do it.”

Trump warned last week that the United States could send additional warships toward Iran if ongoing diplomatic negotiations fail to produce a deal, signaling that military pressure could increase as talks over Tehran’s nuclear program stall.

In remarks to Axios, Trump said the administration is considering deploying a second aircraft carrier strike group to the region in addition to the USS Abraham Lincoln and 9 additional warships already positioned near Iran, though he expressed hope that a diplomatic agreement can still be reached.

“Either we will make a deal or we will have to do something very tough like last time,” the president told Axios on Tuesday, a reference to the bombing of three Iranian nuclear sites in June.

“Last time they didn’t believe I would do it. They overplayed their hand,” Trump added. “We have an armada that is heading there and another one might be going.”

The president emphasized that the United States is seeking to persuade Iran to curb its nuclear ambitions, halt the development of its ballistic missile program, and end support for militant proxy groups. Iranian officials have so far resisted expanding negotiations beyond nuclear-related issues.

He described the nuclear issue as a “matter of course” part of any negotiation, but also insisted that an agreement with Iran must also address Tehran’s ballistic missile stockpiles, per Axios.

Trump said the US “can make a great deal with Iran,” and Tehran “very much wants to make a deal.”

Trump’s comments came ahead of a planned visit to Washington, D.C. by Benjamin Netanyahu, who is expected to press for a tougher U.S. stance and broader terms for any Iran deal that would include constraints on Tehran’s missile capabilities and regional activities.

Before heading to DC, the Israeli leader previewed some of what he and Trump were going to discuss.

“I will present to the president our understanding of the principles of the negotiations (with Iran) – the essential principles that are important not only to Israel – but to everyone who wants peace and security in the Middle East,” Netanyahu told reporters, per the New York Post.

The administration has already bolstered its military presence in the Middle East, with multiple warships and aircraft deployed as a means of deterrence and leverage.
