 Nancy Guthrie kidnapping probe may see resources scaled back as leads come up empty: Sources The lack of recent progress in the probe into Savannah Guthrie's mother's kidnapping may mean that investigators soon scale back their resources, sources with knowledge of the case told ABC News Friday. Nearly three weeks after Nancy Guthrie vanished, investigators are finding their best leads are so far coming up empty.  Partial DNA recovered at the home is, for the moment, unidentified; technology companies and the FBI have recovered no additional video from her home security system; and investigators have been unable to associate a vehicle with her abduction, law enforcement sources told ABC News.   Right now, there are 400 investigators assigned to the case operating 24/7, the sheriff's department has said. Given the seemingly sluggish progress, investigators believe the case would soon have to move into a new phase with fewer dedicated resources but a small ta...

 Spanish actress and television presenter Ana Obregón lost her only son, Aless Lequio, to cancer in 2020 at the age of 27. His death deeply affected her, and she later revealed that before passing away, Aless had frozen his sperm because he hoped to become a father in the future. In 2023, Obregón used her late son’s frozen sperm along with a donor egg and a surrogate in the United States, where surrogacy is legally permitted. A baby girl was born through this process. The news quickly gained worldwide attention due to the unusual and emotional circumstances surrounding the child’s birth. After the baby was born, Ana Obregón legally adopted the child in Spain. Because of this, the girl is legally recognized as Obregón’s daughter. However, biologically, the child is the daughter of her deceased son, making her genetically Obregón’s granddaughter. Obregón has publicly stated that the child is not meant to replace her son but represents a continuation of his life and wishes...

 The Disappearance of Doreen Vincent Doreen Vincent, age 12, had decided to go live with her father and stepmother in Wallingford, Connecticut. It was early June 1988, and Doreen hoped to enjoy her summer before starting 8th grade that fall. Doreen had a hard time adjusting to rural life in Wallingford, however, and almost immediately she and her father began arguing often. On the evening of June 15, 1988, Doreen and her father had yet another argument. Her father said she took some clothes and left the home, and he believed her to have run away. When his wife, Doreen’s stepmother, returned home from church a little after 9:00 pm., he told her that Doreen had left. Her father’s story was inconsistent, and he never told Doreen’s mother that she had gone missing. Her mother tried to reach her daughter for a few days- or someone at the home- several times before she finally drove there on June 18th. It was Doreen’s mom that insisted on reporting her as miss...

 The body of 72-year-old Jerry Boucher was found six days after he fell through the ice while walking with his wife and their dog in Eastham, Massachusetts.

He was located in a marsh area about half a mile northeast of the Bee’s River parking lot, according to Eastham police.

 ✨ Ella Harper — the Girl the World Called “Camel Girl” Who Just Wanted a Normal Life Born with a rare condition, Ella Harper had knees that bent backward, forcing her to move on all fours. That haunting posture is what the world remembers from the photograph that made her famous. 🐪💔 At just 16, in 1886, she toured with a traveling circus, earning $200 a week—over $5,500 in today’s money. Yet, on her pitch card, she wrote her own truth with quiet courage: “I am called the Camel Girl because my knees turn backward… I intend to quit the show business and go to school and fit myself for another occupation.” And she meant it. After four years performing, Ella left the spotlight and stepped into the silence of ordinary life. For more than a century, her trail went cold—until census and marriage records finally revealed the life the world never asked about. She married a schoolteacher. She built a quiet life in Tennessee. She endured heartbreak, losing her ...

 The Arizona Home Where Savannah Guthrie's Mother, Nancy, Vanished: Property Value and Key Details In 1975, a young family moved into a one-story home in the Catalina Foothills of Tucson. They paid $85,000 for the house, which sat on a full acre of Sonoran Desert land. It had five bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, and enough space to grow roots. That house became the center of their world. It was where Savannah Guthrie spent her childhood. Sundays were devoted entirely to church — morning service, choir practice, and evening worship. Afternoons were for simple joys: running through open fields, flying kites, and telling stories around the dinner table. Her father, Charles, filled the house with laughter and energy. But in 1988, just days after his daughter’s high school graduation, he died suddenly of a heart attack. Savannah was 16. Grief settled into the home, but so did resilience. Nancy went to work to support the family. Each evening when she returned, her p...

 This is Aron Löwi. He was 62 years old, a Jewish merchant from the small Polish town of Zator. Aron was not famous. He did not live a loud life. He was a husband. A neighbor. A familiar face along the market streets. The kind of man people nodded to, greeted by name, trusted with small conversations and shared days. His life was beautifully ordinary — shaped by routine, honest work, family meals, and long-standing ties to his community. After six decades, his world was made of quiet certainties. Things he believed would always be there. He could not have imagined how quickly they would disappear. On March 5, 1942, Aron arrived at Auschwitz. Within moments, the system did what it was built to do. His name — spoken for 62 years — was taken from him. In its place, he was given a number: 26406. A number stitched to cloth. A number written in a ledger. A number easier to manage than a human life. Because the camp did not only confine people — it worked to erase them. To strip...

I think it's very sad,” Trump, 79, said when asked about Andrew's arrest. “I think it's so bad for the royal family. It's very, very sad. To me, it's a very sad thing.” Trump also said King Charles was coming to the United States “very soon,” calling the monarch a “fantastic man.” There has been speculation that King Charles will travel for a state visit this spring.

 In 2013, Jim Stauffer donated his mother Doris’s body to a Phoenix company called Biological Resource Center. He believed her remains would be used for medical research, possibly related to Alzheimer’s disease. Years later, after an FBI investigation into the company, he learned something devastating. Instead of being used strictly for medical study as he understood, her remains had been sold to the U.S. Army and used in blast testing research. The military research itself was legal, but the issue was whether families had given informed consent for that type of use. The FBI raided the facility in 2014 and documented serious misconduct in how bodies and body parts were handled and sold. The company’s owner later pleaded guilty to state charges related to operating the business illegally. Families filed civil lawsuits, and settlements were eventually reached. The case exposed gaps in regulation within the body donation industry and sparked national debate about consent, ...

 The Tragic Story of a Small-Town Mu-rder and Unconventional Justice In the quiet town of Crothersville, Indiana, where everyone knows their neighbors and kids roam freely, a routine errand turned into every parent’s nightmare. On January 25, 2005, 10-year-old Katlyn “Katie” Collman stepped out of her home around 3 p.m. to pick up toilet paper from the local Dollar General store—a path she’d walked countless times before. Katie, a bright fourth-grader with a love for basketball and Disney Channel shows, was described by her father, John Neace, as a “happy, bubbly” girl who lit up any room. But that afternoon, she vanished without a trace, sparking a desperate search and a case that would grip the nation with its twists, a false confession, and an act of vigilante justice behind bars. The Disappearance and Desperate Search Crothersville, a small community in southern Indiana with fewer than 2,000 residents, was shaken when Katie didn’t return home. Her mother, Angela Collman...

  Former Prince Andrew, now known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, was arrested on the morning of February 19 — his 66th birthday — at the home where he has been staying on King Charles’ Sandringham estate in Norfolk. A team of police officers arrived early Thursday morning. Authorities later confirmed that a man in his sixties from Norfolk had been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. Searches were also carried out at properties in Norfolk and Berkshire. The man remains in police custody. The arrest follows an investigation by Thames Valley Police into allegations that Andrew shared confidential information with the late Jeffrey Epstein during his time as the U.K.’s special representative for international trade and investment, a position he held from 2001 to 2011. The complaint was reportedly brought by the anti-monarchy group Republic, which accused him of suspected misconduct and breach of official secrets. Recent emails released by the U.S. Department of...

Lily had always loved her grandfather like he hung the moon. The moment she walked through our door, she ran straight into Grandpa Jim’s arms. She wore his old baseball cap like a crown. He taught her to ride a bike, shuffle cards, and whistle through her fingers. She called him her “favorite person,” and he pretended not to enjoy it. When my daughter Erin asked if Lily could stay with us for a week, we didn’t hesitate. The first three days felt normal. Pancakes in the morning. Board games at night. Jim letting her win and Lily pretending not to notice. On the fourth day, something changed. Lily grew quiet. At dinner she pushed peas around her plate. When Jim asked if she wanted to play cards, she said, “Maybe later.” That night, as she headed to bed, Jim stood waiting for his usual hug. “Go give Grandpa a hug,” I said gently. Lily stopped in the hallway. She looked at him — then shook her head. “I’m sleepy,” she said. Later, as I tucked her in, I asked softly, ...
