Tommaso Cioni’s Alleged Activity Hours After Savannah Guthrie’s Mom Nancy’s Kidnap Sparked Suspicion

It’s been 85 days since Nancy Guthrie, the mother of Today Show host, Savannah Guthrie, disappeared from her Arizona home under mysterious circumstances. Nancy was last seen at night on January 31, 2026 (ET) by Savannah’s sister, Annie Guthrie’s husband, Tommaso Cioni. Ever since the FBI released photos and videos of a masked person of interest in Nancy’s case, the internet has been buzzing with theories regarding Tommaso Cioni being the kidnapper. Amid that, some new claims regarding his alleged debatable activity just hours after the kidnapping have surfaced.

What alleged controversial activity did Tommaso Cioni undertake after Nancy Guthrie’s kidnapping?

Nancy Guthrie’s son-in-law, Tommaso Cioni, has maintained a very low profile since she was abducted. Regardless, the public interest in him has not subsided, due to him being the last one to see Nancy alive and safe before she went missing. A journalist named Jonathan Lee Riches (popularly known as JLR), who has been covering the Nancy Guthrie case extensively, recently asked his X (formerly Twitter) followers, “What has Tommaso Cioni done to find Nancy Guthrie?” One of the commenters replied to it, saying, “I don’t think Tommaso has done anything.”

The tweet writer added that they found Tommaso’s activity just hours after his mother-in-law’s kidnapping, inappropriate. They alleged that the day after Nancy went missing, he went to watch an Olympic game, without trying to help in the search process for Annie Guthrie’s mother. According to the X user, it wasn’t the “correct thing to do”, given that he shared a good relationship with Nancy. Notably, the claim that Tommaso was away for the Olympics has neither been confirmed by the investigating officers nor by any trusted source, and it’s based solely on online speculation.

How did Annie Guthrie and Tommaso Cioni first get linked to Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance?

NewsNation journalist, Ashleigh Banfield claimed on her podcast that Tommaso Cioni was a “prime suspect,” citing an unverified law enforcement source. Annie Guthrie and her husband, Tommaso Cioni, are under intense scrutiny as they were among the last people to see Nancy before she disappeared from her Tucson home on January 31, 2026. Tommaso reportedly drove Nancy home after a family dinner on Saturday night, ET, and confirmed she was safely inside at approximately 9:30 p.m. Notably, the officials have not named Annie or Tommaso as suspects in the case.

Tommaso Cioni was speculated to match the physical profile of Nancy Guthrie’s masked kidnapper

Some social media users claimed the recently released security camera footage of a masked person of interest in Nancy Guthrie’s case matches Tommaso Cioni’s physical profile, specifically citing his facial hair (moustache and beard). “I’ve been suspicious about this guy for a week. Intruder has the same slow shoulders, oaffy build & dark facial hair too,” an X user wrote. The public also based their prediction on the fact that “the intruder sure knew the area around the Nest camera,” since it had been concealed effectively.

Contradictory views regarding Tommaso Cioni being Nancy Guthrie’s masked kidnapper

The FBI Phoenix office released a detailed physical description of the masked suspect believed to have kidnapped Nancy Guthrie on February 12, 2026 (ET). Based on forensic analysis of doorbell camera footage, the suspect is described as a male approximately 5’9″ to 5’10” tall with an average build. Following that, JLR wrote, “Tommaso Cioni is much taller than 5 ft 9 – 5 ft 10,” which almost rules him out as the masked person of interest. However, the public still remains suspicious of his involvement in the criminal act. Additionally, the Pima County Sheriff also ruled him and the rest of Nancy’s family out of the suspect list.
