Nancy Guthrie: FBI Veteran Breaks Down Why 18,000 Tips Haven't Been Enough

Eighteen thousand tips. Not one has broken this case. More than a hundred investigators. FBI resources deployed. And twelve days after Nancy Guthrie disappeared from her Catalina Foothills home, there is still no vehicle of interest, no named suspect, and no confirmed sighting since she walked through her own front door.

Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins Hidden Killers Live to confront the two questions at the center of this investigation. The first: how does a person vanish in 2026? Dreeke served as Chief of the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program for twenty-one years. He spent his career studying how people evade the systems designed to track them. He breaks down the surveillance blind spots most people don't know exist, what a clean extraction from a residential home would actually look like, why the absence of a vehicle of interest tells its own story, and why the layers of protection Nancy had — doorbell camera, pacemaker app, proximity to family — didn't function as the safety net we assume they would.

The second question is harder. Somewhere, someone has a piece of this puzzle and hasn't come forward. Dreeke breaks down why that happens — the psychology of silence in high-profile cases, the difference between a person who doesn't realize what they saw matters and one who is deliberately protecting someone. He explains what finally breaks that loyalty. Why public attention on a case this big can paradoxically push potential witnesses further into silence. And he makes a direct appeal to anyone listening who may know something: what would it take to call today? Because the tip that solves this case is still out there. It just hasn't come in yet.
