The possibility of her departure comes amid growing frustrations with the investigation and emotional tension among the “Today” show hosts.

Looking for Nancy, no breakthrough
Pima County Sheriff’s Office and FBI An intensive search has been underway since Nancy disappeared from her home in Tucson on February 1.
Authorities have obtained multiple evidence leads, but none have been able to identify a suspect or lead law enforcement to reliable information about Nancy’s whereabouts.
Police vowed to find Nancy and those responsible for her disappearance, although they admitted they were “exhausted” in their search for Nancy, who had poor health and required daily medication.
With investigators running out of clues and suspects, they are now trying to connect to Nancy’s pacemaker using a high-tech scanner that can detect Bluetooth signals, The Sun reported.
The situation was further complicated by the fact that some of the ransom letters, some of which turned out to be fraudulent, were sent to family members, law enforcement and other news organizations.
