Reward Increased as Investigation Intensifies
The FBI has released a detailed description of a suspect connected to the Nancy Guthrie case, as officials announced that the reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction has grown to $100,000.
Authorities say the increased reward reflects the urgency of the investigation and their commitment to securing critical information from the public.
Suspect Description Released
According to federal investigators, the individual being sought is described as:
-
A male of unknown identity
-
Approximate age range provided by authorities
-
Physical features and build detailed in the official bulletin
-
Possibly connected to specific locations tied to the case
The FBI emphasized that the person is considered a person of interest, and investigators are urging anyone who may recognize the description to come forward immediately.
Officials caution the public not to approach the individual if spotted, but instead to contact law enforcement.
Why the FBI Is Turning to the Public
Releasing a suspect description is often a strategic move when:
-
Investigators believe someone in the community may recognize key traits
-
Surveillance footage has yielded limited identification results
-
Tips have slowed and authorities need renewed momentum
The increased $100,000 reward is designed to motivate individuals who may have previously hesitated to share information.
Family Continues Public Pleas
The case has drawn widespread attention, with emotional appeals from family members urging anyone with knowledge of Nancy Guthrie’s whereabouts to speak up.
Law enforcement officials say even seemingly minor details — such as unusual behavior, overheard conversations, or recent changes in routine — could prove significant.
How to Submit Information
The FBI is encouraging the public to:
-
Call the official FBI tip line
-
Submit information online through the bureau’s secure portal
-
Contact local law enforcement agencies
Anonymous tips are accepted, and authorities stress that all information will be handled confidentially.
A Critical Moment in the Case
With the reward now at $100,000, investigators hope this latest development will generate fresh leads and bring the case closer to resolution.
Officials reiterated that time remains critical and community cooperation could make the difference.
The investigation remains active and ongoing.
