New: AZ Sheriff Overseeing the Guthrie Abduction Case May Soon Have to Face Voters in Recall – RedState . . . "The Pima County Sheriff was later called out for a stunt he reportedly pulled by refusing to allow the feds to handle the processing of crucial evidence, collected at the scene, at their renowned Quantico facilities, as we wrote.
RedState also reported about the joint efforts of federal and local investigators leading to the search of a Tucson home, and a vehicle being taken away by police. Authorities detained at least four people while the home was searched by a SWAT team. As my colleague Bonchie wrote:
NewsNation's Brian Entin was on the scene when a mixture of local and federal authorities arrived. He was eventually told to exit the perimeter, but reported that none of the law enforcement had left at that point.
. . . " SHERIFF RECALL EFFORT: We’ve confirmed with the Pima County Elections Department that a recall effort has been launched for Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos. It was filed on March 12th.
The sheriff says, “We’re aware of the recall and it’s the right of the people. We’ll always honor the will of the people and that’s what makes democracy.”
To move forward, 120,000 signatures have to be collected in the next 120 days to prompt the actual recall.
This comes in the wake of scrutiny over the handling of the Nancy Guthrie investigation.
"84-year-old Nancy Guthrie has been missing for around 6 weeks now, and investigators basically have no leads.
"Recall that this sheriff delayed working with the FBI at a critical moment early in the investigation by refusing to send key evidence to Quantico.
"In a case like the Guthrie disappearance, time is of the essence.
"Now, Arizona Republican congressional candidate Daniel Butierez is leading the charge to recall Sheriff Nanos." . . .
"He says that Nanos’ own deputies wanted to initiate the recall process, but they were afraid he would punish them for doing so." . . . The New York Post has more:
