Six months after Nancy Guthrie vanished from her home in Tucson, Arizona, investigators are revealing significant new developments in one of America's most heartbreaking missing person cases. In this special Surviving the Survivor (STS) investigation, Emmy Award-winning journalist Joel Waldman and our #BestGuests break down the newly released ransom notes, Sheriff Chris Nanos' latest comments, the evolving timeline, and what these new clues could reveal about the person responsible for Nancy Guthrie's disappearance. Could the language inside the ransom notes finally identify the kidnapper? Why were the notes released now? What does the latest evidence tell us about the investigation, and could this be the break detectives have been waiting for? We analyze the facts, the unanswered questions, and where the investigation goes from here as authorities continue searching for Nancy six months after her abduction. Whether you've followed this case from the beginning or are just learning about it, this episode brings you the latest reporting, expert analysis, and everything you need to know about the search for Nancy Guthrie, the investigation in Tucson, AZ, and the newest developments involving the released ransom notes.
