Nancy Guthrie’s long-running case may be approaching a critical turning point, with a former prosecutor saying her kidnapper may have been known to authorities and was something of a “career criminal.”
Law enforcement confirmed the 84-year-old was missing from his home in Tucson, Arizona, and they are treating it as a kidnapping. However, more than two months after Nancy Guthrie disappeared, authorities still have no updates on the main suspect.

Former Orange County prosecutor Matt Murphy, who shared his insights on the YouTube channel “Prof Jo Explains,” is convinced the suspect in this case may have been arrested and booked into the legal system before.
In the interview, Murphy detailed the types of suspects the FBI and Pima County Sheriff’s Department are dealing with based on his personal encounters with criminals.
“I bet this guy, whoever he is, is a well-known figure in the Pima County Jail,” he told host Joe Portuto.
Murphy questioned Chris Nanos and his team further and said he was surprised the Pima County Sheriff’s Office had not previously identified the suspect as a repeat offender.
He further stated that he was sure the suspect was a familiar person, saying, “I wouldn’t be surprised at all if this guy wasn’t a frequent flyer and was released through some ridiculous social justice program. I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see it.”
According to Entertainment Now, there were “no signs of an attack” and the interior of the home was “immaculate.”
Although blood was found on Nancy Guthrie’s front porch after she disappeared, authorities have not released much information about the condition of the rest of her house.
“NewsNation” reporter Brian Entin said: “[This] It makes sense when you go back to what Savannah Guthrie said, when her sister and brother-in-law showed up, they weren’t sure what was going on.”
She further cited comments from Savannah Guthrie and her family, saying, “She basically just disappeared. They even thought maybe an ambulance took her away because, according to sources, there’s nothing in the house now that looks completely out of the ordinary.”
