Nancy Guthrie update: After three months of investigation, progress is noted in the Nancy Guthrie case.
Nancy Guthrie update: After over three months, teams of investigators continue to diligently work towards uncovering the details of the Nancy Guthrie case. Following weeks of concerning allegations regarding the activities occurring behind the scenes, a significant update on the management of the probe appears to be quite encouraging.
On May 3, Parade discussed the case with NewsNation's Brian Entin, who has been closely monitoring the Nancy case since its inception.
In his conversation with the outlet, he responded to allegations regarding the lack of coordination between the Pima County Sheriff’s Department and the FBI.

While these reports have raised concerns among many observers, Entin asserts that, based on his sources, the collaboration between the two investigative teams has enhanced. He also stood up for Sheriff Chris Nanos against the criticisms.
“It’s an interesting situation because there’s a lot of animosity towards the sheriff. I’m trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. And I have heard through sources that he’s working better with the FBI now,” Entin told Parade.
“I know initially there were issues there with him not sharing information with the FBI. I’m told mostly that’s been resolved… I think he has good intentions. I really do,” he added.

Nanos gives major update: ‘We know someone…’
Meanwhile, Nanos appeared in an interview with KVOA, where he opened up about the probe and the ransom money which is still being offered for any information regarding Nancy.
“The reward money is still there—it’s there for a reason. We think somebody out there knows something. We know they do. We know someone out there knows what happened. Call us,” Nanos stated.
In mid-April, ABC News announced that the FBI received DNA evidence from Guthrie’s residence, which had been released by a laboratory in Florida. This DNA, identified as a hair sample, is set to undergo advanced testing with the aim of identifying a match in CODIS—the FBI’s database that contains DNA profiles of previous offenders.
While this news has undoubtedly rekindled public interest in the case, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department emphasized that the hair sample does not represent a new development.
