Investigators are employing advanced technology in the ongoing search for Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of "Today" show co-host Savannah Guthrie, who vanished from her Tucson, Arizona home in early February. Authorities are utilizing a "signal sniffer," a tracking device capable of detecting signals from electronic devices, as the search enters its third week, according to CBS News.
Guthrie was last seen on February 1st, when she failed to appear for church, having disappeared overnight. The circumstances surrounding her disappearance suggest a possible abduction, as reported by CBS News. The FBI has also become involved in the investigation. An agent visited Armor Bearer Arms, a gun store in Tucson, and asked the owner, Phillip Martin, to check recent firearm purchases against a list of approximately 18 to 24 individuals, along with their photos and names, according to Fox News. Martin stated that no matches were found.
The signal sniffer technology is being used because Guthrie's pacemaker was disconnected from the app on her phone, which indicates it is equipped with Bluetooth Low Energy technology, designed for long battery life, as explained by David Kennedy, a former NSA hacker and the inventor of the signal sniffer, to CBS News.
