Nancy Guthrie Shocking Twist: Is ‘Today’ Intruder Linked to Her Case?

As Nancy Guthrie remains missing, NewsNation’s Brian Entin is still searching for answers. The journalist interviewed former FBI agent Steve Moore and presented a theory that Guthrie’s disappearance could be linked to the recent Today show intruder, who broke onto the set and lunged at Craig Melvin last week.

“There’s been this theory since the beginning that the person responsible for Nancy’s disappearance could be someone obsessed with Savannah, a Savannah stalker-type,” Entin pointed out. However, he wondered, “Does this [intruder incident] indicate that the FBI does not believe that? Because I’m just thinking, if that was the case, wouldn’t they have more tight security at NBC?”

Moore responded, “Yeah, you would think so. You can only extrapolate. It’s possible that the FBI has a theory and NBC is treating it as not serious. I doubt that. NBC has a really robust, really high-speed low drag security people. They’ve got too many high-profile stars there. They’re constantly dealing, across the country, with different stalkers. This is their business. So if the FBI had told them there was a stalker or potential danger to the stars of the Today show, they would have reacted appropriately.”

He also confirmed that if he were a “betting man,” he would “put all [his] money” on the intruder not being linked to Guthrie’s case, reiterating that “nobody has indicated to NBC security that there’s a danger to [Savannah Guthrie].” Moore speculated that Savannah also doesn’t feel threatened by a potential stalker because “if you believe you are in danger, you’re going to voice that to your employer and they have a duty to protect you, especially when the threat to you is because you work for them.”

Entin asked Moore to weigh in on the status of the case, as well. After nearly six months, no arrests have been made and Guthrie still has not been found.

“The case is cold. The case is completely cold,” Moore admitted. “When you get a cold case, there are certain ways to handle it. When I came aboard in the FBI, I wondered what cases I was going to get as a brand new agent. I got cold cases. I don’t mean something significant like the Nancy Guthrie disappearance, but I got stuff like a disappeared person or a murder that was 10-15 years old. They don’t close those cases ever. But they give them to new agents who are coming in with a new set of eyes who are not indoctrinated into the way the FBI necessarily investigates everything, and sometimes people see them in a different light.”

He continued, “We used to call those ‘old dogs.’ Cases that will just never go away. So what I would do, and what most people would do, is start at the beginning and try not to take the same steps the investigators did before. Try going off in a different direction. Try anything you can to mix things up a little and see if you don’t bump into something they didn’t.”

Moore also confirmed that he believes this is what the FBI is doing now in the Nancy Guthrie case.
