Nancy Guthrie’s son-in-law doesn’t escape responsibility either; key questions raised for Tommaso Cioni in Mexico claim

Days after police cleared all of Nancy Guthrie’s relatives, including her son-in-law Tommaso Cioni, in the kidnapping, a new allegation emerged. Journalist and attorney Megyn Kelly recently said it would be “inappropriate” not to cover Sioney. Cione was the last person to see the 84-year-old mother of “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie on Jan. 31. Police believe Nancy was kidnapped from her home in Tucson in the early morning hours of February 1. Currently, no suspects have been named in the case.

When did Nancy Guthrie disappear?

Nancy Guthrie at the home of her other daughter, Annie, on January 31st. Her son-in-law Tommaso Cioni dropped her off at her residence at around 9:50 pm local time. The 84-year-old reportedly disappeared the next morning without attending church.

Search, Evidence and Ransom Notes

The Pima County Sheriff’s Department has been searching for Guthrie ever since. The main piece of evidence was a glove found near the Tucson house, but no DNA match was made. Doorbell camera footage shows a man entering Nancy’s home. The man is considered a suspect but has not yet been identified.

Several media outlets and the Guthrie family received ransom letters demanding millions of dollars in Bitcoin.

Tommaso Cioni claims

Meanwhile, reporter Ashley Banfield said Sione could be the “prime suspect” in the case. This claim was refuted by the authorities. Now, Megyn Kelly is backing up this theory.

Kelly said on her SiriusXM show that journalism needs to censor Anne’s husband.

The Pima County Sheriff’s Department in Arizona said DNA collected in the investigation so far has not found any matches in a national criminal justice database called CODIS, which contains DNA profiles of convicted criminals and, in some states, people arrested for certain crimes.

“Investigators are currently looking at other investigative genetic genealogy options to obtain DNA evidence to check for matches. CODIS is one of many options for available databases,” the Sheriff’s Department said Tuesday.

The department said Wednesday that biological evidence was being examined at Guthrie’s Tucson-area home and a DNA profile was being analyzed at a laboratory.

mexico claims

Mexican authorities responded that they had been contacted by the FBI. Sonora’s attorney general clarified Wednesday that his office had not received a formal request.

Gustavo Romulo Salas Chavez wrote on social media that “no formal request for cooperation has been received regarding missing persons cases in Arizona,” referring to Guthrie.
