looking for Nancy Guthrie is turned on, and SWAT team A deputy from the Pima County Sheriff’s Office reportedly traveled to Marana where the manhunt was underway. While officials have not yet confirmed whether the police operation is related to the Guthrie case, reporters on the ground reported there were reports they were linked and that a SWAT team was set up there. During this time, there were rumors on social media that Sam Hyde had been arrested in the case.
To be sure, this comes from an unverified source and has not been officially confirmed. However, the post attracted widespread attention and caused confusion about the status of the investigation.
“SAM HYDE (age 39) has been arrested in connection with the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping,” one user wrote on X, claiming the news came from sources including the Associated Press, NBC and CNN. Another commented, “Sam Hyde arrested in connection with the #NancyGuthrie kidnapping.” Another said, “News Nation says they arrested a man named Sam Hyde in Marana in connection with the case. Reported on Twitter.”
None of the posts mentioned or detailed who this Sam Hyde might be.
To be sure, none of the above-mentioned publications reported the above claims. There has been no official announcement from the Sheriff’s Office or the FBI, which is currently investigating the matter. The name has also not been published by local journalists or independent journalists, beyond discussions on social media.
Another person at KYW News Radio slammed such posts.
“No one has been arrested and all those rumors saying someone named Sam Hyde was arrested are false. They are conspiracy theorists. They claim CNN and others are reporting on this. This is not true,” the person wrote in a now-deleted X post.
When Grok was asked about these claims, the AI chatbot also fact-checked them. “No, Sam Hyde has not been arrested in the Nancy Guthrie case. Claims circulating online (e.g., on Savannah Guthrie) is baseless and appears to be part of a long-standing internet hoax/meme,” Gronk wrote.
It also explains that there is a recurring internet meme where comedian Sam White is accused of various crimes and mishaps.
Not everyone took kindly to the scam, given the seriousness of the situation. “Very funny,” one said sarcastically.
News Nation’s Brian Entin reports that “the Pima County SWAT team is currently active in connection with the Nancy Guthrie investigation.” He reportedly said during the live broadcast that two people, a man and a woman, were pulled from their house. Entin reports that the two may be mother and son, and that the incident reportedly occurred two miles from Guthrie’s home.
Guthrie, 84, was reported missing on February 1 and authorities believe she was taken from her home the night before. Although FBI Director Kash Patel said there are people of interest in the case, they have not announced any suspects. Guthrie has three children, Today show host Savannah Guthrie, and her siblings Anne and Camren.
