A former FBI agent believes that the decision not to call in civilian search experts in the hunt for Nancy Guthrie could signal that authorities are close to making an arrest.
Jennifer Coffindaffer speculated that it could be telling after United Cajun Navy, a volunteer-led search organization, revealed it had offered help to the Pima County Sheriff’s Department last week as the search for the missing 84-year-old reached the month mark — but never heard back.

“Is LE [law enforcement] close to an arrest and they know what happened to Nancy so they don’t want to waste the valuable resources of these groups? But why won’t the sheriff at least acknowledge these groups? Half glass full. Hoping LE is getting closer,” she wrote.
