One search for Guthrie’s address in Tucson was made by someone in Arizona between June 21 and 28, Fox News reported, citing Google Trends data.

Her address was searched again on January 11.

One other search for the mom’s address was made between March 1 and March 8, and another between November 30 and December 1.

These were looking specifically for images or a map of her house.

The words “Savannah Guthrie salary” were searched from Tucson sometime between December 13 and 20.

In comparison, CNN star Anderson Cooper generated one search for “Anderson Cooper salary” in his hometown of New York City between March 29 and April 5.

Meanwhile, Fox anchor Sean Hannity, who also grew up in New York City, generated one “Sean Hannity” search between May 3 and 10.

Local and federal authorities have been scouring the affluent Catalina Hills neighborhood where cops fear Nancy was kidnapped from her bed on February 1.

But despite obtaining terrifying surveillance of a masked suspect stalking around her house the night she vanished, they haven’t made any arrests or tracked her down.

The FBI have now reportedly taken the investigation across borders to Mexico, which is just an hour south of Tucson.

Federal agents reached out to Mexican authorities and told them to spread the word to police agencies about Nancy’s disappearance, TMZ reported.

The FBI believes it’s possible Nancy could have been taken after the border, but it’s unlikely to have happened soon after her kidnapping, sources told the outlet.

Detectives have scored border patrol cameras, but haven’t spotted any evidence she made the journey.

However, the source claimed the department is still looking at other possibilities.

Meanwhile, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos, who is spearheading the investigation, voiced his hunch that Nancy is still hiding somewhere under their noses.

“I think she’s somewhere here in our community,” Nanos told BBC on Wednesday.

“I just do. I don’t know why. I don’t have any evidence to prove that, but I just believe that she’s somewhere here locally.”

Mystery deepens

Investigators were hit with yet another roadblock after testing a glove found miles away from Nancy’s home, and finding no DNA matches.

Detectives said the glove appeared to match the black pair worn by the suspect in the surveillance.

However after testing samples through the national Combined DNA Index System, they got no hits, the sheriff’s department announced Tuesday.

The FBI is now offering a $100,000 reward to anyone who could help them find Nancy’s kidnapper, and a private attorney has said he will match the money.

Authorities continue to sift through tens of thousands of phone calls for any tips that could lead to their next breakthrough.

Meanwhile, mourning daughter Savannah had addressed the kidnapper directly on her social media and begged for answers.

“It is never too late to do the right thing,” she said in an Instagram video posted on Sunday.

“And we are here. And we believe in the essential goodness of every human being, that it’s never too late.”
