When Nancy Guthrie vanished from her home in Tucson, Arizona, it sparked intense speculation online. A particularly heated segment of social media targeted the Guthrie family for any involvement she had in her disappearance, sparking a response from Piers Morgan.
Morgan, himself fired up about such accusations, addressed his audience on X: “Unequivocal. Shame on all those who’ve used the Guthrie family as despicable clickbait with zero evidence to support their invented claims,” he wrote passionately.
This backlash followed a statement issued by the Pima County Sheriff’s Department, which unequivocally cleared Nancy’s family of any involvement in her disappearance. “To be clear…the Guthrie family — including all siblings and spouses — has been cleared as possible suspects in this case,” the sheriff stated. “The family has been nothing but cooperative and gracious and are victims in this case.”
“The suggestion otherwise is not only wrong, it’s cruel. The Guthrie family are victims plain and simple… please, I’m begging you the media to honor your profession and report with some sense of compassion and professionalism,” Morgan emphasized.
Meanwhile, Tommaso Cioni, Nancy’s son-in-law, found himself under scrutiny from certain social media segments for being the last person to see his mother alive. Chris Nanos, Pima County Sheriff, addressed these speculations: “I understand the pundits are out there. They’re gonna say, well, he’s the last one to see her alive.”
“But my goodness, you’re putting a mark on somebody who could be completely innocent,” Nanos continued. “And more important than that, he’s family.” He added, “People out there can get pretty ugly and mean and nasty and not have the facts. I tell my journalists, you guys need to be a little more responsible… because that’s just really nasty stuff.”
