Man Claiming to Know Nancy Guthrie’s Location Draws Attention After Deputies Reportedly Seek Him Out

Claim About Nancy Guthrie’s Location Sparks Questions
A man identified only as “James” has recently drawn attention in connection with the ongoing investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie after reportedly claiming he knew where she was located.
The remark, made during a conversation about the case, quickly spread among individuals closely following developments in the investigation. According to witnesses, the man suggested that he knew the exact location of Nancy Guthrie, though it remains unclear whether he meant the claim literally or was referencing information he believed to be credible.
Authorities have not confirmed whether the statement contained any verifiable details tied to the case.
Deputies Reportedly Asked About the Man

Witnesses say that shortly after the man made the statement and left the area, deputies from the Pima County Sheriff’s Office arrived asking questions about him.
According to accounts from people present at the time, the deputies reportedly appeared only minutes after he departed. That timing has prompted speculation about whether investigators had already been looking for him or if the claim itself triggered law enforcement interest.
Officials have not publicly confirmed the circumstances surrounding the deputies’ visit.
Authorities Have Not Named Him a Suspect
Law enforcement agencies often interview individuals who claim to have knowledge about an active case, particularly when someone suggests they may know the location of a missing person.
However, officials have not indicated that the man known as “James” is considered a suspect or person of interest.
Investigators routinely follow up on statements from members of the public to determine whether they contain useful information. Such contact does not necessarily imply wrongdoing.

Gavin Newsom Has A New Problem - $1 Billion Fraud Scheme Discovered

Los Angeles has a homeless crisis. Everyone knows this. What California GOP gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton’s walk through Skid Row just exposed is something considerably darker than simple government incompetence: there is an organized, well-funded operation actively working to make sure the crisis never ends.
Meet LA CAN — the Los Angeles Community Action Network. While Karen Bass holds press conferences about her commitment to solving homelessness and Gavin Newsom crisscrosses the country pretending California is fixable, LA CAN has been in the courts blocking every attempt to actually clear encampments, remove drug users from public sidewalks, and restore basic safety to neighborhoods that have been abandoned by the government supposedly responsible for them.
Their legal theory is breathtaking in its cynicism: homeless individuals camping illegally on public sidewalks have personal property rights that police cannot violate by enforcing the law. The courts, remarkably, have entertained this argument long enough to give LA CAN repeated injunctive wins against cleanup operations. When Hilton walked through Skid Row and asked why police weren’t clearing the encampments he was stepping around, the answer was simple: LA CAN had obtained legal orders preventing it.
Here is the economic reality that explains everything you need to know about LA CAN’s actual incentives. The city of Los Angeles is spending nearly $1 billion annually on homelessness — and the problem keeps growing. LA CAN has positioned itself as the indispensable advocacy organization standing between the homeless population and whatever the city is trying to do about it. Money flows to LA CAN because homelessness exists. The moment homelessness is meaningfully reduced, the money stops. So does the relevance. So does the organizational purpose.
This is not speculation. It’s the inevitable logic of activist organizations that have confused their existence with their mission. LA CAN was supposedly founded to help homeless people. It now deploys lawyers to prevent the city from removing homeless people from sidewalks where they are actively dying of drug overdoses. It has a choral group — the Freedom Singers, composed of formerly homeless individuals — that has appeared on national television to raise the organization’s profile and drive donations. The formerly homeless members are now raising money for an organization legally fighting to keep people in the condition they escaped.
You genuinely cannot make it make sense. Unless you follow the money. Then it makes perfect sense.
Karen Bass’s office, according to reporting from Hilton’s walkthrough, actively coordinates with LA CAN — the same organization blocking her own city’s cleanup efforts. This is the California Democratic machine in perfect miniature: politicians who campaign on solving a crisis, nonprofits that fundraise off the crisis, lawyers who litigate to preserve the crisis, and residents who live with the consequences of all three.
One billion dollars a year. Skid Row looks exactly like it did a decade ago.
California doesn’t have a homelessness problem. It has a corruption problem. The homelessness is just the most visible symptom.
Thune Breaks With Trump, Backs Cornyn After Paxton Endorsement

Senate Majority Leader John Thune said Tuesday he will continue supporting Sen. John Cornyn despite President Donald Trump endorsing Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in one of the most closely watched Republican Senate primaries of the 2026 cycle.
Speaking to reporters following Trump’s endorsement announcement, Thune praised Cornyn as “a principled conservative” and an “effective senator” for Texas, signaling a rare split between Senate Republican leadership and the president.
“Cornyn is a principled conservative. He is a very effective senator for the state of Texas,” Thune said.
“None of us can control what the president does. That doesn’t change the way I feel. I will continue to be supportive of Senator Cornyn in his re-election,” Thune added.
The comments came just hours after Trump formally endorsed Paxton on Truth Social, delivering a major boost to the Texas attorney general as he seeks to unseat Cornyn in the Republican runoff election.
In his endorsement, Trump criticized Cornyn for insufficient loyalty during politically difficult periods of his presidency.
“Ken Paxton has been a warrior for Texas values and for our America First agenda,” Trump wrote. He added that Cornyn “was not supportive of me when times were tough.”
The endorsement immediately intensified an already bitter and nationally significant Republican primary battle that has exposed growing tensions inside the GOP between establishment Senate Republicans and Trump-aligned populists.
Early voting in the runoff began Monday and continues through Friday, with Election Day set for May 26.
Despite the internal divisions, Thune expressed confidence Republicans would retain control of the Senate in November.
“I’m very confident we’ll hang on — and maybe even expand the majority of the United States Senate,” Thune said.
Republicans currently hold a six-seat Senate majority. Democrats would need a net gain of four seats to retake control of the chamber.
Several races, including contests in Maine, Michigan, and North Carolina, are currently viewed as highly competitive.
The Texas race has become particularly important because Democrats believe a bruising Republican runoff could weaken the eventual GOP nominee heading into the general election against Democratic candidate James Talarico.
Recent polling has suggested an unusually competitive general election environment in Texas. One survey released Monday reportedly showed both Cornyn and Paxton running roughly even with Talarico in hypothetical head-to-head matchups.
That possibility has alarmed some Republicans, particularly moderates concerned that Paxton’s legal controversies and polarizing political image could jeopardize a seat long considered safely Republican.
Sen. Lisa Murkowski openly criticized Trump’s endorsement Tuesday, warning it could backfire politically.
“I was supremely disappointed,” Murkowski said. “How does that help strengthen the president’s hand when we lose a state like Texas?”
Paxton has remained a dominant figure among Texas conservatives despite years of legal and political controversies, including securities fraud charges that were later resolved and an impeachment battle in the Texas legislature from which he was ultimately acquitted by the state Senate.
Trump allies have framed the race as a test of loyalty to the president and the broader America First movement, while Cornyn supporters argue the longtime senator offers stability, fundraising strength, and legislative experience critical for maintaining Republican control of the Senate.
Cornyn, who has served in the Senate since 2002 and previously chaired the National Republican Senatorial Committee, has longstanding ties to GOP leadership and donor networks in Washington. But critics on the right have increasingly portrayed him as part of the party establishment out of step with the Republican base.
Paxton has sought to capitalize on that frustration, presenting himself as a fighter aligned more closely with Trump’s populist agenda on immigration, election integrity, and federal power.
The runoff has also become a broader proxy battle over the future direction of Senate Republicans after Trump’s sweeping victories reshaped the party.
