  Speaker 2: I'm Sidney Silvani. This morning marks exactly one hundred days
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: since Nancy Guthrie disappeared from her Catalina Foothills home. As
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: the milestone passes without an arrest, the man commanding the investigation,
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: Sheriff Chris Nanos, faces a Tuesday deadline to resign or
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: face a forced removal from office. The push to oust
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: the sheriff is not coming from the public, but from
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: within the county government itself. At least two members of
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: the Pima County Board of Supervisors are prepared to file
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: a motion to vacate the sheriff's office if Nanos does
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: not step down by tomorrow. The allegations against him are
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: severe perjury. The supervisors allege that Sheriff Nanos lied under
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: oath during a deposition for a lawsuit unrelated to the
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: Guthrie case. Specifically, they point to his denial of ever
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: being suspended during his early career as a police officer
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: in Alpaso, Texas, prior to joining Pima County in the
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: nineteen eighties. However, internal records from the El Paso Police
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: Department tell a different story. Those documents detail multiple suspensions
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: for infractions that include unnecessary violence and chronic tardiness. Doctor
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Matt Hines, a member of the Board of Supervisors, says
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: the disciplinary board at the time was clear about Nanos's performance.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: In a statement regarding those decades old records, Hines noted
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: that the board's decision was unanimous, stating simply that Nanos
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: cannot be a cop anymore and is not upholding the
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: necessary standards of the badge. Hines further argues that the
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: sheriff has lost the confidence of the pemaccounting community and
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: has become an embarrassment to the department. Attorneys for Sheriff
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: Nanos have responded to the allegations in writing. They claim
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: the sheriff did not intentionally mislead anyone, but rather misunderstood
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: the line of questioning. They argue the questions pertained to
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: discipline in an out of state agency not governed by
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: the Arizona Peace Officer's Bill of Rights. According to his
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: legal team, Nanos identified the discrepancy in the transger ripped
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: shortly after the deposition and notified his council immediately. While
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: Supervisor Hines insists that the Guthrie investigation has not factored
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: into the move to remove Nanos. The sheriff is simultaneously
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: under fire for his handling of that very case. High
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: level criticism arrived late last week from FBI Director Cash
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: Betel in a podcast interview with Sean Hannity. Pttel alleged
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: that the Pima County Sheriff's department effectively blocked federal agents
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: from the investigation during the most critical window of the abduction.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: What we the FBI do is say, hey, we're here
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: to help, what do you need, what can we do?
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: And for four days we were kept out of the investigation.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: The Sheriff's department has issued a formal rebuttal on social media,
• 2:40

  Speaker 1: in contact BCS.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: In the weeks following that call, federal investigators obtained nest
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: doorbell footage via Google. That footage remains the most significant
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: piece of visual evidence. It shows a mass of average
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: build armed with a holstered pistol standing on Guthrie's front
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: steps during the timeframe of the abduction. Notably, a man
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: in similar attire was observed approaching the same door three
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: weeks prior. On Friday, Sheriff Nanos spoke briefly with Fox
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: News Digital. It's one hundred days now, ALMOSSA, are you
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: guys any plugs?

  Speaker 2: Nano's characterized the latest developments as really great before departing
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: in his white corvette. One of those developments involves a
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: hair sample discovered at the scene. A private forensic lab
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: in Florida has transferred the sample to the FBI for
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: advanced analysis. Forensic experts suggests that this hare could be
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: the key to utilizing forensic genetic genealogy, the same technology
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: that broke the Idaho for murder case. Doctor David Mittelman,
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: co founder of the forensics lab Authrum, explains that the
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: speed of the DNA profile development depends entirely on the
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: quality of the sample. If the profile is incomplete or degraded,
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: identifying familial connections becomes exponentially more difficult, potentially leaving the
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: suspect's identity hidden. To date, relatives and employees associated with
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: the Guthrie home have provided voluntary DNA samples. A non
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: match for the hair would almost certainly point to an
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: outside suspect. For Mother's Day. Today's show hosts Savannah Guthrie
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: renewed her plea for help in the caption of an
• 5:26

• 5:37
  Speaker 2: need help. Someone knows something that can make the difference.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Please keep praying, bring her home. The reward for information
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: leading to the resolution of this case now stands at
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: over one point two million. The Guthrie family and federal
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: authorities are urging the public to review the footage of
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: the massed individual and report any information to one eight hundred.
