Mother-led Search Group Joins Guthrie Case in Arizona

A group of Mexican mothers from the Madres Buscadoras de Sonora, with years of field-search experience, arrived in Arizona to aid in the search for Nancy Guthrie. After their permit to conduct a field search in the Arizona desert was denied, they distributed Guthrie’s image in Nogales and offered help, while the Guthrie family has increased the reward to up to $1 million for information. Authorities say the investigation is ongoing and searches are best left to professionals; Mexican officials say the FBI currently has no leads Guthrie is in Mexico, though cross-border collaboration continues.
