Nancy was declared missing on Sunday, February 1, with Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos noting that after finding "concerning evidence," it's being investigated as a crime.
"We believe now, after we process that crime scene, that we do, in fact, have a crime scene, that we do, in fact have a crime, and we’re asking the community’s help," he stated. "This community has always stepped up to help up solve some pretty tough crimes. I am looking for that again."
