Sheriff Nanos Under Fire: Former Deputies Blast Leadership in Nancy Guthrie Investigation
The criticism isn't coming from cable news pundits or political opponents. It's coming from inside the house. Nearly four weeks after Nancy Guthrie disappeared from her Tucson home, the sheriff leading the investigation is facing public accusations from his own former command staff. Richard Kastigar, a 46-year department veteran and former Chief Deputy, says Sheriff Chris Nanos has "great disdain" for the FBI stemming from a decade-old investigation—and that Nanos is "still pissed" about it. Richard Carmona, another former Chief Deputy, told reporters he's "disappointed at the level or lack of leadership." The president of the deputies' union put it more bluntly: "It is a common belief in this agency that this case has become an ego case for Sheriff Nanos." Nanos disputes everything. He says the FBI relationship is strong. He says the evidence decisions were about lab consistency. He says the criticism is political noise. But actions speak. The crime scene was released too early—he admitted it. DNA went to a private lab, not Quantico, and now faces "challenges" that could take months. A search helicopter pilot was reportedly reassigned during the active investigation. And the sheriff told reporters: "I'm not used to everyone hanging onto my every word and then holding me accountable." An 84-year-old woman remains missing. Her family just offered a $1 million reward—more than three weeks after they reportedly wanted to announce it. And the man running the investigation says everyone questioning him is the problem.
