Nancy Guthrie update: Sheriff issues response to resignation demand

 Men's Journal

"Famous sketch artist releases image of Nancy Guthrie suspect  “I GUESSED at the parts of face covered with ski mask on this Nancy Guthrie kidnapping suspect. I used the surveillance photos shown,” Lois Gibson, who retired from the Houston Police Department in 2021 and is recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world’s most successful forensic artist, wrote on Facebook alongside the sketch. Gibson is not involved in the Guthrie investigation."


"Nancy Guthrie, the mother of Today host Savannah Guthrie, remains missing over three months after she disappeared from her home in the Catalina Foothills of Tucson, AZ.

"As the case reaches the 100-day mark, two Pima County supervisors called on sheriff Chris Nanos to step down following allegations that he lied about a history of suspensions and other disciplinary actions he received in the 1970s and 1980s as a member of the El Paso Police Department.

Pima County Supervisors Taking Action Against Chris Nanos

"Dr. Matt Heinz, a Democrat, and the five-person board’s only Republican, Supervisor Steve Christy want Nanos to resign immediately.

"Heinz alleges that Nanos lied under oath.

"He lied under oath to the board about his separation from El Paso PD,” he said. “And we will consider referring his perjury to the [attorney general] for prosecution.”

"Christy is ready to take immediate action against Nanos.

“My position is that unless in the next few days before the board meeting next week, if he doesn’t resign or if he doesn’t retire in an honorable fashion, which is available to him, then I will move and I will support any effort by the Board of Supervisors to vacate the office, which is part of the regulation,” he said.
