more than six weeks later Nancy Guthrie A former FBI agent who disappeared from her Tucson home is explaining why the investigation may be in trouble.
Savannah Guthrie’s mother, 84-year-old Nancy, was reported missing on February 1, and despite a 45-day search, no major lead or suspect has been found, and authorities have yet to confirm where she may be.
Why investigate in depth
Former FBI agent Steve Moore explained in a recent interview with Brian Entin of Brian Entin Investigations that investigators may now be looking back at previous steps to examine things they may not have focused on before.
Some neighbors questioned why certain leads, such as contractors working nearby, were only being investigated now. Moore said this is actually a normal part of the investigation.
“Obviously, that means they’re going back. I’ve used this analogy with you before. Say you can’t find your car keys and you walk through the house or apartment looking for where you normally put them,” Moore explained.
“They’re not there. And then you have to go back, you have to go back, you have to double back, you have to say, ‘Hey, what pants am I wearing?'” or “Where’s my wallet?” or whatever, like that, and then you get to the second level. “
“When you get down to the third or fourth level, these are things you wouldn’t normally check, but you might start pulling cushions off the bed or the couch and things like that. You’re going to sink deeper and deeper.”

What does “pull up the cushion” mean?
Moore said investigators usually start with the most obvious places to find clues first. Only when those don’t work do they start examining less obvious possibilities.
“So people ask, why doesn’t the FBI do all this? Because a normal search will find your keys in about 20 seconds,” he said.
“The secondary search will find them in about 2-5 minutes. If you start by taking apart the sofa and sofa cushions in the living room, you will never get to the bedroom where the keys are.”

Speaking about the case, he added that investigators are now in a deeper stage.
“So they’re obviously now to the point where they’re pulling up cushions on the couch, which I think would explain the fact that they’re not actually on the second day, although I totally understand why it seems that way.”
“If everything else, all the normal searches don’t work, they’ll be where they are.”
Even after 45 days, the case is still confusing. Police have not identified any suspects. The investigation remains ongoing as authorities continue to search for answers.
Meanwhile, Savannah Guthrie and her family are offering a $1 million reward to anyone with information that can help “bring her home.” Officials said the investigation is ongoing as the search for Nancy continues.
Senior advocates Shyam Divan and Kapil Sibal, appearing for Bengal and the chief minister respectively, said the education ministry is just a government department and a wrong precedent will be set if one department or government is allowed to plead against another for violation of fundamental rights.They urged the Supreme Court to refer the issue to a larger five-judge bench for authoritative ruling as it would have wider implications for the federal structure, which is one of the fundamental features of the Constitution. Supporters say India cannot become a unified non-federal state.“No agency or officer can claim to have a fundamental right to conduct investigation. I don’t know how the fundamental rights issue arises. The officials have statutory rights but no fundamental rights. Their remedy is not in the writ petition but in the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS),” Sibal said.Dewan said, “ED is not a legal entity… it is just a government department. It does not have any personality of its own and the Article 32 petition is untenable. If allowed, there could be a situation where Article 32 is used against another department or between the Center and the states. This would completely bypass the checks and balances embedded in the constitutional framework.”“The SC was hearing a petition filed by the ED and its officials against the state government, CM, the then Kolkata Police Commissioner and other state officials seeking a CBI probe against them for not allowing them to discharge their duties during raids on January 8 at various locations in Kolkata, including the I-PAC office, in connection with the money laundering probe in connection with the coal “scam” case.The outcome of the litigation will be significant as clashes between the Center and opposition-ruled states have become frequent, with non-NDA states accusing the Center of using its agencies, especially the CBI and ED, for political ends, while the Center accuses states of not allowing its agencies to function to protect their corrupt ministers and officials.According to the ED, CM Mamata along with senior TMC leaders and state police arrived at the I-PAC premises to be searched, confronted the officials and allegedly took away certain documents and digital devices, which hampered the investigation. Following the incident, Bangladesh police registered three FIRs against ED officials.
The United Nations peacekeeping mission UNIFIL is based in southern Lebanon and monitors hostilities along the border with Israel. In a statement to Reuters, the Israeli military acknowledged that its forces were behind the incident but said they responded to anti-tank missile fire from Hezbollah, which moderately wounded two soldiers. “…the IDF regrets this incident and has expressed its apology to Ghana and the United Nations through appropriate channels,” the statement said.
