Or, didn't have the money to pay back a loan, perhaps, for the house. I believe that I read that AG and husband moved 10 minutes from NG about a year ago. Their house either cost $650k or is worth that. Did they have to borrow money from a family member with the promise to repay? Just throwing this out there. It is mere speculation.

JMO.

The AZ public records show they put a down payment of $295k for the current home after selling their previous home. The loan is in their names only - nobody else. There doesn't appear to be any type of financial distress with the property.

What time did AB’s report come out? Was it her regular daily program and if so what time does it usually come on?

It was about 11pm mountain time I believe, and it was her “ drop dead serious” channel”

This is a Christmas Photo photo of the family from Nancy's Facebook page (source).

Nancy's son in law, Tommaso is on the right. I'm just not seeing this man having anything to do with Nancy's disappearance and I'm kind of appalled at Ashleigh Banfield's report which implicates him when there is no confirmation from Law Enforcement.

I can't imagine the damage an accusation like this has done to the family.
I'm so hoping that Nancy is okay, wherever she is.

Edit - I have chosen to blur the faces of the children as they're minors.

NBC News reporting now (1:09 CST): Sheriff: NO suspects ID'ed in search for Nancy. We are "Holding out hope that she's alive..."

 

[browneyes]

valid point but the address listed for him was sold in June of 2025 and the new house purchase was March 2025 so

My daughter and her husband own two homes…one they rent out. I don’t see the confusion.

I believe LE is stating she needs meds, and can’t move well, to try and get sympathy from whoever may have her in hopes that they may release her. MOO

My reply was to someone saying that they would have “put NG to bed”…. Had nothing to do with LE comments or her need for meds.

It was last night pretty late. I saw it in the 11 o’clock hour AZ time.

Welcome to Websleuths , @investigatoroffacts .

I looked up the building permit info on Pima County's permit gateway. Permit was pulled September 2025 and passed inspection last month. (Public Record - Search Link: Records Search)
Project description:

Electrical Equipment; Upgrade under 400amps; MPU or MSA

That being said, it is safe to assume, workers have been on/in that property in 2025 and as recently as this year.

Thank you for finding this information. I really have felt that it is someone who has been in her house unrelated to family.

Would they be trying to drain the pool? JMO

I mean, AB's been around plenty long enough to know the legal ramifications of defamation/slander/libel.

Did she say qualify her statements about the SIL with "allegedly, reportedly" to cover herself?

If not, she must either really, really, really trust her source or be really, really, really desperate for cash, or both.

JMO.

You can find the video here. Edited because I don't want to draw attention to the specific video that gets everyone watching it. I originally posted a link to the video, but wanted to "deactivate" the link to text only, but couldn't figure out how.

Ashleigh Banfield x Drop Dead Serious

Welcome to my Drop Dead Serious podcast! I'm Ashleigh Banfield. I know a thing or two about true crime... I’ve been reporting on it for 36 years. Drop Dead Serious is available on all podcast platforms.

News reports (currently on FoxNews, but I assume similar on other MSM) show the Sheriff's helicopter up yesterday during daylight hours flying over NG's home and surrounding areas. There is an officer sitting (legs hanging out) in the open side of the helicopter and he is wearing some kind of black helmet-like thing that covers his face and it appears he is looking through goggle-like devices on the front of that helmet that must enhance vision somehow.

Does anyone know what that might be? Thermal imaging? Something that detects recently-turned ground?

Wow, after they already released the home back to the family after the Sheriff confirmed they had competed their investigation of the property? Oy vey.

The handling of this case and the demeanor of Sheriff Nanos is some of the most bizarre I've seen. I see he also has a questionable past pertaining to spending allegations back in 2016. He comes off has a bit of a hot-headed personality in some older interviews as well.

Agreed. Unfortunately, when media gets involved mentioning possible family involvement, human nature is to ignore all other avenues.

The family could definitely hire an attorney for the damages this would cause, maybe they already have.

JMO Just seems to me that if AB is such a great friend to SG why on earth would she implicate SG's sister by suggesting that her husband is a potential suspect. Glad that I have dear friends who would never do something like that to me. JMO

I recently noticed AB wasn't on tv anymore (I dvr'd it because it was so boring that it helped me fall asleep.). They said she left NN to focus on her new podcast. What a way to inform the masses about your new podcast! That I won't be listening to because I'm just not a fan. Nothing against AB...she's just boring.

I can't think of a reason why they'd need to do that.

 

[Chimera]

Without knowing anything more concrete, my guess at this time is Nancy's disappearance is related to some type of money issue ?
No suspects clarified by LE and also no one ruled out or cleared, afaik ?
That recent presser was disappointing, imo -- I have to admit.
Hoping for an update soon and that she's still alive.
Omo.

I just thought maybe their names would be on both of them. And it was just an observation and a legitimate question but thanks for making me feel like an idiot. I'm gonna see myself out now thanks.

 

[Chimera]

Me neither.
Perhaps some evidence thrown into it, though ??
Imo.
