Why Was a Rookie Leading This Case? | Nancy Guthrie Case Update
About this episode
Disturbing New Details: On Day 59 in the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, an alarming new detail raises questions about how this investigation was handled from the very beginning. In this episode of Drop Dead Serious, Ashleigh Banfield shares new reporting that the detective initially leading Nancy Guthrie’s case had only two years of experience, even as the investigation quickly became a major, high-profile case.
Ashleigh is joined by retired Pima County homicide detective Kurt Dabb. They also dig into the latest details about the back kitchen door, the flower pots used to prop open the screen door and back gate, what that staging could suggest about planning, and whether more than one person may have been involved in Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance.
