Is it just me or is this odd wording? "County Attorney Conover trusts her veteran prosecutors to execute the work and lead on the ground, allowing them to focus on substance rather than inserting herself into the scene for optics.”

BBM. JMO.

I read that and thought it's not just the sheriff, this whole county has a communication problem

I think they have evidence that she went to bed but I don't know if her blood was found in her bed. PCSD believes she went to bed. Nanos wonders if she got up to go to the restroom or got up to go to the refrigerator.
That makes me think her blood was found somewhere besides in her bed.
AB's source said the blood from inside matched the pattern of blood outside. Passive drops falling from a height.

Yes sounds like he is thinking NG went to bed, got out of bed for some routine benign reason. And was attacked then?

Since when do authorities make announcements about handing crime scenes back over to the family? Is that normal? It's not to me?

Yes, but it is usually done directly to the family, not through the media

 

[Tillicum]

I think you are correct. After so much time in agony, living in places that are not home, I think it'd be therapeutic for NG's children to be in the house their mother loved, where they grew up, surrounded by Nancy's things. I imagine they'll feel their mother's presence there, at least I hope so. May it bring them some measure of comfort.

I hadn't considered them going back there, more of trying to do something productive when they feel so helpless. I can't imagine going back in that house but maybe you're right and it would be therapeutic for them.

If you don't reclaim it then they've taken all the beautiful memories and her spirit which I'm sure is very present. I imagine it will be difficult at first but I'd want to back.

[SpideySense]

Yeah I agree sounds defensive. People just wanted to know what the reason for the visit was. Is this a jab at the Sheriff??

I think it’s actually a jab at Sgt. Aaron Cross and Heather Lappin, who’ve both come out in the past few days with high-profile armchair attacks on Sheriff Nanos and his handling of the investigation. I think Conover is supportive of Nanos.

Sergeant blasts sheriff’s department handling of Nancy Guthrie investigation

Sgt. Aaron Cross of the Pima County Sheriff's Department has criticized his department's handling of the Nancy Guthrie search, calling it an “ego case.”

In a conversation with The Hollywood Reporter, Lt. Heather Lappin calls Nanos a "tyrant" who runs Pima County like "a mafioso."

Mechanics use bite lights.
Also another thought - what if someone from AG's neighborhood attempted to open AG's car door at some point and prints were found on the door handle that were later found to match prints at Nancy's home?
LE kept questioning AG's neighbor's and asking them about a phone as well.

BBM link for this? TYIA

 

[Napoli]

You think LE listen to Ashleigh Banfield to develop their theories?

Have a little grace with someone else’s theory. We’ve listened to yours quite a lot. IMHO.

I THINK WE were told the family was off limits . MOO JMO

I highly doubt that what AB reported had any influence on the direction of investigators who were actively working this case.

I doubt it too. However this was the driving force for 2 weeks on the board as the family was flogged. My impression is the family was no longer to be discussed as suspects here or alluded to as such but i could be mistaken. jmo

Nancy Guthrie's home will be returned to family as search stretches into fourth week, sources say​

Feb. 25, 2026, 8:35 PM

aw enforcement is preparing to turn Nancy Guthrie’s Arizona home back over to her family, sources say, as the search for her is in its fourth week.

For weeks her home in the Tucson area has been the center of a flurry of law enforcement activity — including the recovery of DNA evidence. Activity seen Wednesday is related to efforts to turn the home back over the Guthrie family, two federal law enforcement sources told NBC News.

Officials acknowledged that law enforcement no longer sees the need to seal the premises as a crime scene or restrict the family from entering.

It was not immediately clear what the FBI or the Pima County Sheriff’s Department was doing inside the home Wednesday. It did not appear that they were engaged in activities outside the home that were seen on previous visits, which included testing or retracing their steps.

More than 23,000 calls have been made to the FBI tip line since Guthrie was taken, 750 of which came in the first 12 hours after Savannah Guthrie offered a $1 million reward Tuesday on Instagram, a senior official familiar with the investigation told NBC News.

Guthrie, 84, was reported missing Feb. 1. Her family offered a $1 million reward this week for her recovery.

[MerBeach]

I am reminded of evil Leticia Stauch and recall seeing the DA go through the house before she was charged.

I also recall the DA visiting the scene of the vile murders committed by Cosmo DiNardo before charges.

Am I mistaken in seeing the similarities? I could very well have mixed up the details…

You know, if the family has time to go through the house, THEY might find things missing that should be there.....

There was quite a lot of time BEFORE family was cleared.

And how you get her words “concerning” to be a slight or blame to the family is beyond me.

What if she thought it was concerning because maybe there was a tracker on AG’s car that a perp could use to tell when NG arrived home??

YOU are the one that ASSUMED she was “concerned” because she thought family was involved. MOO.

Yeah I understand that, I was simply replying to what you wrote about AB reporting derailing the investigation for two weeks.

That would have had zero effect on investigators and how they do their jobs.

thank you for this was this recently like today?

I couldn't live in that area being elderly because of the dark night laws. I like my street lights. Perp being free would make it even worse for me.

It is not either-or, though. Streetlights and outdoor light fixtures can be dark sky-compliant. Dark sky just means the light is directed down rather than in all directions. Outdoor fixtures can be both dark sky and motion-activated, providing security without leaving the lights on all night.

I understand why you feel that way. I enjoy living in an area without streetlights. It took a while to feel comfortable, but I've been here for decades. The darkness feels protective to me. If you aren't used to it, it can be unnerving.

The open, rolling desert terrain of NG's neighborhood appeals to me. The absence of streetlights must make for astounding views of the night sky. Because I'm in the woods, my view of the night sky is straight up only.

@OldCop Why would prosecutors and Estate Attorneys be inspecting Nancy Guthrie’s House?

MOO It has been reported that authorities are planning to release Nancy Guthrie’s home back to her family.

https://twitter.com/x/status/2026848683225223555

The prosecutors want a final walk through to observe the interior in the state it was in when the crime occurred to make sure it has been fully documented. This documentation will be utilized in any future court proceedings.
THE Guthrie family has acknowledged, through Savannah’s last video, that Nancy Guthrie may be deceased. If, by any chance she is recovered alive, it is highly unlikely that she would ever return to live in her home of 50 years. I also doubt a family member would ever want to live in or keep the house where such a horrible crime had occurred. Whether they decide to keep it vacant, tear it down, or sell it, the family has to protect Nancy’s personal property, real estate, and any other assets.
The Estate Attorneys would likely be employed handle this. They would handle wills, trusts, taxes, etc as relates to Nancy’s estate and future probate.

Oh, I see what you meant now. That's also a likely motivation. I truly hope the family members do whatever brings them a bit of peace as they process what's happened. And that the media and content providers give them the space to do so.
