Former Detective: Nancy Guthrie Case Should Be Treated As Possible Homicide
A former detective said the disappearance of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie should no longer be treated as a missing person case, arguing that investigators should consider it a potential homicide. Morgan Wright, a former law enforcement officer and current CEO of the National Center for Open and Unsolved Cases, made the remarks during an appearance on Brian Entin’s YouTube program as the search for Guthrie stretched beyond six weeks.
“At some point you have to realize it’s not a missing person anymore,” Wright said, The Mirror reported. “We have to realize Nancy is 84 years old, with cardiac compromise. You are violently confronted at 2 o’clock in the morning in your own home. We know it’s violent because there was blood.”
Authorities previously confirmed that blood believed to belong to Guthrie was found on her porch. Investigators also believe she was forced from her home, indicating what Wright described as a violent encounter.
Wright said the case should be approached as a “no-body homicide,” a legal framework in which prosecutors seek to prove a killing without recovering a victim’s body. “You need to treat this like a no-body homicide because it tells the public something different about what you’re looking at and where you’re looking for things,” he said.
He explained that such a shift would change search tactics. “When we have a no-body homicide, we’re looking for clandestine grave sites, open grave sites, concealed grave sites,” Wright said. “Things that when you’re out walking in the foothills, you need to be looking for these kinds of things,” he said.
Guthrie was last seen on Jan. 31 after being dropped off at her home following dinner with her daughter. She was reported missing after failing to attend church the following day.
Despite weeks of investigation, authorities have not identified any suspects or persons of interest. Law enforcement has released surveillance images and confirmed the recovery of DNA evidence, but has not announced a motive.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said investigators believe the incident may have been targeted but stopped short of confirming that conclusion. “We believe we know why he did this, and we believe that it was targeted, but we can’t — we’re not 100% sure of that,” Nanos said.
He warned residents not to assume they are safe. “Don’t think for a minute that because it happened to the Guthrie family, you’re safe. No, keep your wits about you,” he said.
Former FBI agent Harry Trombitas said a ransom motive appears increasingly unlikely. “There’s too much involved,” he said, adding that kidnappings for ransom have declined in recent years.
Trombitas said other motives could include revenge or personal conflict. “[The motive] could be for revenge of some type, anger, or it could be for a third purpose that we’re just not even aware of,” he said, The Mirror reported.
Investigators are continuing to analyze “mixed” DNA recovered from the home and are following leads from neighbors, including activity at a nearby vacant property. Authorities are also examining a damaged utility box that may be linked to an internet outage around the time Guthrie disappeared.
Officials said the case will continue to be treated as a missing person investigation while evidence is reviewed. “The FBI and law enforcement will continue to work this case as though she’s still alive,” Trombitas said.
However, he acknowledged the challenges. “With her age, 84 years old, and some of her health conditions that she has, the prospects of her being found alive are not as great as they were originally,” he said.
BANNED' - Clinton Judge Reads Her Verdict - President Donald Trump Has Been Informed That He Just Beat Gavin Newsom...
JUDICIAL RECKONING
The return of national sovereignty and administrative lethality reached a new milestone this Thursday, April 9, 2026. A blockbuster ruling in Los Angeles has left the DNC establishment and globalist elite reeling.
A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction against California’s controversial "No Secret Police Act," blocking the state from prohibiting ICE agents from wearing masks. Judge Christina Snyder ruled the law unconstitutional, marking a decisive victory for President Donald J. Trump and the Department of Justice.
The court affirmed the Constitution’s Supremacy Clause, stating California cannot discriminate against federal officers while exempting its own law enforcement. Attorney General Pamela Bondi praised the ruling, emphasizing the administration’s zero-tolerance stance on harassment of federal agents.
This decision reflects the 2026 mandate: a legal framework prioritizing the safety of American officers over the sanctuary policies pushed by Governor Gavin Newsom. It signals a sweeping rollback of state overreach in immigration enforcement.
Meanwhile, in Texas, a federal jury delivered historic terrorism convictions against nine members of a radical antifa cell. The group was found guilty for a violent 2025 attack on an ICE detention facility that left a police officer shot in the neck.
Ringleader Benjamin Song faces potential life imprisonment after evidence proved the attack was a coordinated assault using explosives and rifles—not the “noise demonstration” the defense claimed. Prosecutors called the verdict a landmark affirmation of Trump’s domestic terror designation.
With Kash Patel at the FBI and Todd Blanche at the DOJ, the dismantling of extremist cells has accelerated. Federal agencies continue to secure detention centers like Prairieland against those attempting to destabilize the republic.
Governor Gavin Newsom attempted to spin the court ruling as a “win,” citing the upheld “No Vigilantes Act.” But the truth remains: the centerpiece of his anti-ICE agenda—the “No Secret Police Act”—has been effectively struck down.
The defeat exposes the weakening foundation of California’s sanctuary policies. While Sacramento prioritizes the “civil rights” of illegal aliens, the Trump administration is defending the constitutional rights of federal officers.
The week closes as a sweeping administrative triumph for the Trump-GOP platform. From Los Angeles courtrooms to Texas jury boxes, real results—not rhetoric—are forging the 2026 midterm shield.
With 5% GDP growth and a secure border, the nation is reclaiming its stability and sovereignty. America moves forward with vigilance, resolve, and a renewed commitment to law and order.
God bless the USA—and the leaders who refuse to bow to the swamp or the radical mob.
oFar Left 'Squad' Member Learns Her Fate As Her Primary Election is Called
Washington D.C. — The far-left “Squad” took another massive hit Tuesday night as Missouri Democrat Rep. Cori Bush was soundly defeated in her primary by challenger Wesley Bell, who led by double digits with 54.9% to Bush’s 41.8%.
Bush, one of the most extreme voices in Congress, joins Rep. Jamaal Bowman as the second Squad member to lose her seat this cycle. Her defeat is a clear rejection of the radical socialist, anti-police, pro-Hamas agenda she has pushed since entering Congress in 2021.
Bush rose to prominence after participating in the Ferguson riots and has spent years promoting false narratives about Michael Brown while calling for defunding the police — even as violent crime soared in her St. Louis district. She has repeatedly aligned herself with pro-Hamas protesters, blamed Israel for the October 7 massacre, and faced controversy over allegedly funneling thousands of campaign dollars to her husband for “security services” while demanding less police protection for her constituents.
Republicans celebrated the win with well-deserved mockery. Pro-Trump comedian Terrance K. Williams posted:
“A ‘BLACK JOB’ IS SOMETHING CORI BUSH DOES NOT HAVE. OH HAPPY DAY! She is the second Squad member to lose her seat! I can’t wait until they are all gone.”
Florida GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz, who served with Bush on the House Judiciary Committee, sarcastically noted:
“I will miss Cori Bush missing every committee meeting.”
Students for Trump co-founder Ryan Fournier added:
“The Squad’s Cori Bush has LOST her primary. Join me in saying GOOD RIDDANCE! Hamas might be hiring, Cori!”
Even actor Michael Rapaport, a vocal Israel supporter, celebrated:
“Tonight at the rally they said let’s bring back ‘JOY’ to politics and boom CORI BUSH is done with Politics…. I feel JOY all of a sudden.”
This is the second straight blow to the radical Squad. Jamaal Bowman lost his primary earlier after endorsing pro-Hamas demonstrators on college campuses. Both Bush and Bowman blamed their defeats on pro-Israel funding from AIPAC rather than admitting the truth: their extreme, anti-American, and anti-Israel positions have become toxic to voters.
The radical left’s Squad is crumbling because the American people are rejecting their agenda of defunding police, embracing socialism, supporting radical Islamists, and putting foreign interests above American citizens. Voters want secure borders, safe streets, strong economy, and leaders who put America First — not performative radicals who miss committee meetings and push policies that hurt their own districts.
Under President Donald J. Trump’s leadership, the Republican Party is becoming the party of working Americans, law and order, and common sense. Meanwhile, the Democrat Party continues its death spiral — hemorrhaging voters, losing favorability, and watching its most extreme members get rejected at the ballot box.
Cori Bush’s defeat is not just a loss for one radical congresswoman. It is a rejection of the entire Squad’s toxic ideology. The American people are waking up and choosing sanity over socialism, strength over weakness, and America First over America Last.
More Squad members are on the ballot soon. The trend is clear: radicalism is losing, and the America First movement is winning.
