"Just doing follow up?"

On what?

I'll tell you what: The evidence they didn't wait to get results back on before releasing the crime scene.

That's what.

And this is why we require approved sources.
A few pages back, someone posted that authorities were at Annie's house, but it was from an unapproved source.
If anyone can find an approved source that says anything about LE being at Annie's house, please post. Otherwise, please stop asking about it. It is making so much work for our mods.

Concerning the dogs:

Just my thoughts, but maybe they got a tip on where something is. Maybe some evidence or….well, you know.

I thought maybe a tip too.

Semantics, I suppose.

A long-time neighbor of NG herself called it “rural” ("This is how rural we are," Wombat said.“), the context being that black bears come into their neighborhood.

Neighbors of Savannah Guthrie's mother fear for her safety

Local Karen Lane didn’t know what to make of the unusual activity in Tucson, Arizona, until she learned that Nancy Guthrie had gone missing.

As someone watching from an East Coast city with possibly more people on my block than in that entire community, it looks rural to me. I'm fascinated by the landscape. Stunning. (But I realize it's a suburb - don't come at me.)

But, I am also fascinated by tonight's developments. What in the world happened with this case?

Re the follow-up at NG's house.... maybe they have a lead about a financial motive and are now looking for documents, whereas before they were just doing the usual crime scene (fingerprints, DNA, etc) investigation. Just a thought.

 

[Tealgrove]

Are we assuming that the blood is from NG or has it been confirmed?

The blood may not be hers but rather belongs to whoever broke in and did whatever they did.

DNA results are probably back by now. Could this be what has revved everything up?

Locals, is the soil there caliche and rocky or more sandy? Just curious how that might play into their grid search. TIA

 

[Chimera]

Has it actually been confirmed the car was taken now?

Question : about a car being removed... I keep thinking the reporters are at Nancy's house only, so if a car was towed from another location, & if reporters aren't there -- that would be the reason why there's no footage/photos of it happening, correct ?
Tia.
Omo.

i don't understand how or why the crime scene would be turned back over to the public during an active investigation. really confusing

I’m

I mentioned this upthread, but please remember that this is a suburban neighborhood even though it might feel rural in setting. With acre-sized lots, ths area isn't as densely populated as the city of Tucson, but there are streets, and cohesive neighborhoods, and houses every acre or so. There's a mall and restaurants close by. Tucson is very sprawly in nature, particularly with neighborhoods of this vintage. The Catalina Foothills isn't what would be considered "rural" and low-population by local urban-planning standards.

Yes, wonder how many cell towers there are in that area given the large lots.

Police and what appear to be feds just showed up at Nancy Guthrie’s house. They are staging in the driveway and appear to be planning to do some kind of search.

I am floored LE released NG's house so soon. Now they are back there. Big mistake! MOO.

Whichever attorney the perp ends up hiring is gonna have a field day with that

CNN showing yellow crime scene tape going up all over Nancy Guthrie property.

JMO, they have gotten some information maybe from a tip

 

[MesquiteO21]

hostage negotiation?
Maybe the ransom note is real?

No idea why they released the house back to the family already, does not look good for LE and now anything they find will be compromised.

do we have any verified LE/detectives/investigators here who can shed some light on this? i know every scene is different and there's no 'standard' amount of time to release a scene but i'd love a professional's opinion. If you have not located the victim it just doesn't make a whole of sense to me to release it.

It actually happens all the time. I can think of two recent cases where family members continued to live in bloody crime scenes, and CSI teams had to return multiple times during that period (it made no difference in the end).

Here it looks like the search is located outside the house, which isn't as bad.

 

[whitelilac]

Is this new search a follow up with the search earlier, the flatbed truck with the tank? Something was noticed or found in that earlier search?
