Nancy Guthrie, 84, was last seen on February 1 at her home in Tucson, Arizona. Authorities believe she was kidnapped but have found no further trace of her despite blood evidence at the scene. The case has drawn national attention due to her daughter Savannah Guthrie's prominence as a host of NBC’s Today Show.
Palazuelos and Maddox were detained shortly after Nancy Guthrie vanished, with Palazuelos alleging his home was 'ransacked' during questioning. According to The Guardian, the lawsuit claims Nanos posted misleading statements on social media that implicated them as suspects. The Pima County Sheriff's Department maintains the investigation is active and ongoing.
Sheriff Nanos has faced scrutiny for his handling of the case, including accusations from FBI Director Kash Patel of withholding crucial evidence. According to The Guardian, Nanos denied these claims in a recent podcast appearance, stating that federal agents were involved 'day one.' The Guthrie family has offered a $1 million reward for information leading to Nancy's return.
