A former Pima County Sheriff’s Department lieutenant has said that it is possible that Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance had possible cartel ties. Fox News reporter Michael Ruiz shared a video on X, where the former lieutenant shared his insight into the case.
When a Fox News reporter asked the former lieutenant if “a cartel hit on the wrong address” may be a possibility in Nancy’s case, he replied, “It is a possibility. I think it'd be more far-fetched.”

“I have responded to plenty of home invasions in my career, and there have been houses that have been hit, basically the wrong house, the wrong people would live there, where they recently moved in, and whoever was living there before had issues with whoever may have done the home invasion or had it, you know, taken care of. In this instance, if they've lived there for a long time, probably not a cartel-related home invasion, but it doesn't mean it's not. Like I said, Tucson's pretty notorious for their home invasions,” the ex-lieutenant added.
He further said, “We have them because of our border, and it does happen, and on occasion the wrong homes are hit.”
