Nancy Guthrie, 84, was last seen leaving her Tucson, Arizona home on Wednesday evening with her daughter and son-in-law. She has not been heard from since. On Thursday morning, the family received a ransom note demanding $5,000 in exchange for the safe return of their mother.
00:05:24.480Authorities were seen at Annie and Tommaso's home on Wednesday, placing some items from the house into their own vehicles before returning back inside.
00:05:34.040News Nation's Brian Enten reporting that he saw the officials taking a ring light and a tripod into the home, which may have been to assist with the siblings' video plea.
00:05:43.900Meanwhile, several news outlets on Wednesday, including the Daily Mail, The Hollywood Reporter, and Fox News, updating their reporting about who was the last to see Nancy Guthrie on the night she disappeared, noting that it was not Annie Guthrie who dropped off her mother Nancy at home on Saturday night after a church function, but Tommaso Sione.
00:06:05.060In another twist, the story about how Nancy's disappearance first came to light may also be changing.
00:06:11.140Initially, reports stated that Nancy's friend called the family when Nancy did not show up to church on Sunday.
00:06:18.580The Daily Mail now reporting, however, that a source tells the outlet, ever since the COVID pandemic, Nancy attends church from home via livestream, noting that the congregants would have no way of knowing if she was participating or not.
00:06:34.140Investigators yesterday returning to Nancy Guthrie's home, which they had returned to the family the day before.
00:06:40.320Putting up new crime scene tape and bringing in canine units, that search reportedly lasting about two hours.
00:06:47.720Pima County Sheriff Chris Nonno is telling the New York Times early Wednesday that it is too soon to say whether this abduction was random or targeted.
00:06:57.220TMZ reporting, authorities are also looking into an early January trespassing report filed by an elderly man living about 10 minutes away from the Guthrie home.
00:07:06.800An alleged trespasser triggering a motion sensor on the lawn, which turned on a floodlight.
00:07:13.440That person then fleeing on foot before anyone could get a look at him.
00:07:17.180There was no attempted break-in and nothing was stolen from the lawn, reports TMZ.
00:07:21.800Local and federal officials are participating in the search.
00:07:25.400Sheriff Nonno's saying yesterday investigators have no reason to believe Guthrie is deceased.
00:07:30.440President Trump calling Savannah Guthrie on Wednesday with well wishes and an offer to help in whatever way he can.
00:07:38.500Soon after, Axios reporting that FBI Director Cash Patel is heading to Arizona.
00:07:44.280The next press conference is set for 1 o'clock Eastern today.
00:07:47.820Anyone with information is urged to call 8-8-CRIME or 520-882-7463.
00:07:55.800Orders are Tom Homan yesterday in Minneapolis announcing an immediate drawdown of 700 federal agents tasked with immigration enforcement operations.
00:08:07.220Since arriving in Minnesota last week, Homan reorganizing the chain of command in Minnesota, which he says has led to a more efficient operational force.
00:08:15.560Homan also describing productive and ongoing conversations as he is urging local leaders to help the administration deport criminal illegal aliens by allowing ICE to take custody of them as they're being released from local jails.
00:08:31.220Under Minnesota's sanctuary city laws, most counties previously did not honor ICE detainer requests.
00:08:38.100Homan saying yesterday some jurisdictions are softening up.
00:08:41.280We currently have an unprecedented number of counties communicating with us now and allowing ICE to take custody of illegal aliens before they hit the streets.
00:08:55.980It requires only one or two officers to assume custody of a criminal alien target rather than eight or ten officers going into the community and arresting that public safety threat.
00:09:06.920This frees up more officers to arrest or remove criminal aliens.
00:09:11.280More officers taking custody of criminal aliens directly from the jails means less officers on the street doing criminal operations.
00:09:19.740It is unclear which jurisdictions are now cooperating with the feds.
00:09:24.020The Hennepin County Sheriff's Office, or HCSO, which covers Minneapolis, telling CBS, quote, our policy has not changed.
00:09:32.520According to the sheriff's website, quote, HCSO does not work with any agency on civil immigration enforcement.
00:09:39.640That means we do not assist with or comply with any civil immigration requests from ICE.
00:09:45.800CNN yesterday pressing Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry on Hennepin County's refusal to cooperate with the Trump administration.
00:09:52.960During the Obama years, the Hennepin County jail actually had a policy where they let an ICE agent keep an office there.
00:10:00.240So the policy has clearly been under a Democratic president what now the Trump administration is asking for.
00:10:20.220What I would say is that there are mechanisms to do this lawfully.
00:10:25.180The federal government could seek some form of federal warrant.
00:10:30.220That warrant could run part and parcel with the warrant that already exists at the state level.
00:10:35.680And if they were to do that, there would be a legal mechanism for detention after bail has been posted.
00:10:44.880But what we can't have from a legal perspective is a second detention after the obligations under the first detention have been met.
00:10:55.600Holman telling reporters yesterday, while clearly the administration would like more, it is happy with the cooperation it is now receiving.
00:11:03.520I also want to reiterate and emphasize, we are not requiring jails to hold people past their normal release time for immigration purposes.
00:11:13.460We're not asking anyone to be an immigration officer.
00:11:16.900We are not asking any state or local official to do immigration enforcement activity.
00:11:22.520By merely notifying us before they release them, they don't hold them one minute past they normally would.
00:11:28.160Given this increase in unprecedented collaboration, and as a result of the need for less law enforcement officers to do this work in a safer environment, I have announced effective immediately, we will draw down 700 people affected today.
00:11:46.120While Holman says there he's not requiring jails to hold illegals past their release time, on Tuesday, the Minnesota Star Tribune reporting, Holman is negotiating with the Minnesota Sheriff's Association on a framework that would allow local authorities to hold criminal illegal aliens in custody for up to 48 hours after their scheduled releases, allowing ICE time to pick them up.
00:12:09.080Not only is there an earlier legal opinion written by Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison saying that's illegal, however, it's also unclear how any agreement could be enforced should any individual county sheriff continue to refuse to cooperate with ICE.
00:12:26.460On the bright side, Holman points out the locals are now finally agreeing to help control ICE watch agitators.
00:12:32.560Every chief I talk to, every one of them, promise to respond to any public safety issue when our officers are out doing their sworn duty and people start crossing the line and they start impediment, interference.
00:12:48.220Every police chief has committed to doing their job and enforce public safety.
00:12:53.100We've talked to a lot of sheriffs throughout the nation.
00:12:58.100I've yet to talk to a sheriff that said no.
00:13:00.680There's still more sheriffs we are in discussions with and talking to, but I have not word or heard no.
00:13:07.400I think they want to do the right things for the communities too.
00:13:11.160Vice President J.D. Vance yesterday on the Megan Kelly Show calling that cooperation essential.
00:13:16.360When Holman says we're drawing 700 people down, those are the people who were protecting the ICE officers as they went out and did deportations and immigration enforcement.
00:13:25.940Most of the people that we have in Minneapolis, they're not doing immigration enforcement.
00:13:29.600That's true even after the 700 drawdown.
00:13:32.640Most of them are protecting the immigration officers from the mob that's forming around them.
00:13:38.920The reason why Minneapolis was so chaotic is because we had to have all these extra officers doing the job the local police wouldn't do.
00:13:46.000If the local police are willing to step up a little bit, I think that's a good thing, not a bad thing.
00:13:51.200Democrat Governor of Minnesota Tim Walz still complaining.
00:13:55.140Meanwhile, responding to news of the drawdown on X, quote, Operation Metro Surge is not making Minnesota safer.
00:14:02.200Today's announcement is a step in the right direction, but we need a faster and larger drawdown of forces, state-led investigations into the killings of Alex Preddy and Renee Good, and an end to this campaign of retribution.
00:14:13.900The White House yesterday announcing, since the beginning of the surge, federal agents have arrested more than 4,000 criminal illegal aliens, including violent killers, rapists, and gang members.
00:14:26.720Coming up, two major medical organizations announcing new guidance against performing surgeries on allegedly gender-confused minors amid mounting pressure from the Trump administration and attempted Trump assassin Ryan Ruth sentenced.
