What to Know
Obviously, since Savannah Guthrie’s 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie, has still not been found, there’s been a lot of online chatter about her family and possible suspects involved in her disappearance. Many have remained skeptical of her son-in-law, Tommaso Cioni, who dropped her off at home after spending the evening with her and his wife, Annie Guthrie. Recently, some old videos featuring Tommaso have resurfaced and while some people are saying that they’ve done him a favor in showing a slightly different side, others are not convinced.
An old cooking video featuring Nancy Guthrie’s son-in-law has resurfaced online.
One thing that a lot of people can’t seem to get past when it comes to the Nancy Guthrie case is that her daughter Annie and her husband, Tommaso Cioni, were reportedly the last ones to see her the night before she disappeared.
People online have gone back and forth about whether or not someone in the family may be involved and that’s led back to Tommaso time and time again. No law enforcement agency has publicly named Tommaso Cioni as a suspect in the case. A video featuring Tommaso during his time as a teacher at Basis Oro Valley from a few years back was recently posted on X.
Immediately, when seeing the video, you get a bit of a different glimpse of Tommaso. He can be seen looking at the camera dropping loads of homemade pasta into a boiling pot of water.
Some might venture to say he might even look a bit playful in this video while others aren’t quite convinced.
A lot of people online keep coming back to Tommaso Cioni.
It’s such a difficult thing to get a real grasp on someone and where they really stand, especially when they choose not to speak out publicly, like Tommaso has chosen to do.
Some people in the comments on X have come out to say that seeing him as a cooking teacher may have helped things a little. “The video feels humanizing—he comes across like he enjoys teaching. I do wish he’d speak out or advocate for Nancy, I’m guessing he was likely advised to stay quiet, knowing anything he says could be used against him legally,” one person shared, though legal advisors often counsel those close to a case to remain silent regardless of involvement.
Another person in the X comments still seems to get a bad vibe from Tommaso, even after watching the video. “He looks unapproachable and kinda mean,” they wrote. Another individual was quite frank in their comment by sharing, “He creeps me out.” And yet another X user described his as being a “strangely different kind of guy.”
These remain unverified social media opinions about a private individual who has not been charged with any crime.
Unfortunately, people have been suspicious of Tommaso pretty much since the beginning.
Sometimes in criminal cases, especially during a time when everyone is constantly online and scoping things out on their phones, people tend to get stuck on a person that they think is involved and they don’t want to let go of that idea. For a lot of people in the Nancy Guthrie disappearance, that person is Tommaso Cioni, though again, he has not been named as a suspect by authorities.
In this Reddit thread, people have been speculating about him for months now. One individual stated one of the biggest things that stands out to a lot of people is who Nancy was with the last evening she was seen with loved ones. “They were the last ones to see her alive when they dropped her off after having dinner at 9:30pm,” they wrote.
Another individual in the Reddit comments speculated, “It usually is someone close to the victim.” This remains online speculation and has no evidentiary basis in this specific case.
Someone from the Tucson, Arizona community spoke out in an interview and when they were asked about their person of interest in the case, they named Tommaso as someone they found “suspicious.” Law enforcement has not confirmed this characterization.
Despite the renewed online attention, even a look at Tommaso Cioni enjoying his time teaching some students how to make ravioli has not quieted the speculation.
