"Today" Show Host Savannah Guthrie's Mother Missing in Arizona; Authorities Suspect Abduction
Nancy Guthrie, the mother of "Today" show host Savannah Guthrie, is missing in Arizona, and authorities suspect she was abducted from her home while she slept. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos told CBS News on Monday that he believes Nancy Guthrie was abducted, stating, "She didn't walk from there. She didn't go willingly."
Sheriff Nanos confirmed that the disappearance is being treated as a crime and urged neighbors to review home video camera footage. "We saw some things at the home that were concerning to us," Nanos told reporters. "We believe now after we've processed that crime scene that we do in fact have a crime scene, that we do in fact have a crime, and we're asking the community's help." He urged anyone who thinks they see Nancy Guthrie to take a picture or record a video and alert authorities.
Clintons Agree to Testify in House Oversight Committee's Epstein Investigation
Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton agreed to testify before the House Oversight Committee regarding its investigation into Jeffrey Epstein. This agreement came ahead of expected votes in the House on holding the pair in contempt of Congress.
According to CBS News, the Clintons' legal team sent an email to the committee on Monday stating that the former president and former secretary of state "accept the terms of your letter and will appear for depositions on mutually agreeable dates." The email also requested confirmation that the House would not move forward with contempt proceedings.
Republican Rep. James Comer of Kentucky, who chairs the oversight panel, said in a statement late Monday that the Clintons' counsel had agreed to appear for depositions. According to ABC News, Comer is now reconsidering moving forward with contempt resolutions against the Clintons. The House was expected to vote as soon as Wednesday on the resolutions until the Clintons agreed to the depositions on Monday evening. A Clinton spokesperson, Angel Ureña, posted on X, "They negotiated in good faith. You did not. They told you under oath they would cooperate." The Clintons had reportedly fought congressional subpoenas for six months.
Authorities Shut Down Illegal Call Centers Tied to Gold Bar Scam
Maryland and federal authorities announced Monday the shutdown of three Indian call centers linked to a gold bar scam. According to ABC News, the operation netted almost $50 million from more than 600 victims across the U.S. through wire transfer, cryptocurrency, and gold bar schemes.
Authorities said the six alleged leaders of the scheme were also arrested. An ABC News investigation previously found that as the value of gold surged, grifters posing as couriers picked up gold bars from victims.
