WASHINGTON (TNND) — The FBI’s involvement in the search for Nancy Guthrie, an 84-year-old woman who has been missing for five days, is seen as crucial despite potential challenges posed by the lack of video evidence in the case.
Former U.S. Attorney John Fishwick emphasized the FBI’s capabilities, stating, “They bring a tremendous amount to the table. They’re the dominant law enforcement agency in our country.”
Fishwick noted the absence of proof of life and Guthrie’s need for daily medication as significant concerns. “It’s obviously very concerning that there hasn’t been proof of life so far,” he said.
The case is complicated by its remote location and the absence of video evidence from the night of Guthrie’s disappearance. Fishwick remarked, “If the FBI has got a real suspect or they know where Nancy Guthrie is, they will in a nanosecond go get her and get the bad guys.”
In a separate legal matter, Tyler Robinson, accused of killing Charlie Kirk, appeared in court amid calls to remove the prosecutor. Fishwick suggested the defense’s strategy is to delay the case, as Robinson faces the death penalty. “They’re going to throw everything they can up against the board to see if anything sticks,” Fishwick said. He added that while the death penalty remains on the table, the prosecution must ensure a fair trial to withstand potential appeals.
