Bone Found Near Guthrie Home Predates Her Disappearance by 750 Years

[Coventina]

Alec Wysopal was making his usual rounds through the hot and dusty trails of Tucson, Ariz., earlier this month, looking for signs of Nancy Guthrie, when something caught his eye.

Mr. Wysopal is one among a small band of livestreamers who have taken it upon themselves to investigate the disappearance of Ms. Guthrie, the mother of the “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie, ever since she went missing in February and set off a nationwide frenzy.

Wearing gaiters to guard against always lurking rattlesnakes and filming with his cellphone, Mr. Wysopal sidled up to a spot on the dry river bank, a few miles from Ms. Guthrie’s home.

“Oh, what is that?” he said to the thousands of people who tune into his YouTube channel. “That’s a bone.”

His heart racing, he called 911.

News of the discovery rocketed across social media, sparking speculation among devotees of true crime that there had finally been a break in the case of the missing 84-year-old.

1. More than the FBI or local LE are doing.

2. Exactly

3. That may be so, but yanking on random bones you find is a big no-no

Maybe it's because my family have lived in AZ for several generations, but artifacts are EVERYWHERE here.

If you get off the pavement, and spend any time looking carefully on the ground, you will find pot sherds, etc. almost anywhere.
We all know not to touch them, in fact, it's against the law.

5. I agree they should not break the law.
