And investigators have revealed that they found biological evidence at Nancy's home
00:01:25.960
Is that something new in addition to the other DNA they said they found?
00:01:34.120
But first, an absolute bombshell out of the United Kingdom.
00:01:37.780
We said yesterday that the fallout from the Epstein files was just beginning
00:01:41.000
and that we would get to the Prince Andrew allegations because it was just like separately
00:01:49.920
This morning, Andrew Mountbatten, Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew,
00:01:54.540
was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
00:01:58.360
Emails from the January 30th U.S. DOJ release of the Epstein files strongly indicate that Andrew
00:02:05.820
shared confidential documents with Epstein while Andrew was working as a British trade envoy.
00:02:12.560
This is not, at least for now, about the women.
00:02:15.380
It's about misconduct in office when it comes to what should have been confidential info.
00:02:20.320
For example, a November 30th, 2010 email, which is after Jeffrey Epstein's 2008 sex crimes conviction,
00:02:28.880
shows Andrew forwarded official reports about his trips to Vietnam, Singapore, Hong Kong, and China to Epstein.
00:02:40.300
A few weeks later, on Christmas Eve 2010, Andrew emailed Epstein directly about a, quote,
00:02:45.980
confidential briefing, end quote, on investment opportunities in Helmand Province, Afghanistan,
00:02:52.260
which at the time was being run by the British military.
00:02:56.800
The BBC reports there's also an email in February of 2011 from Andrew to Epstein about an investment opportunity in a private company.
00:03:06.440
The U.K. government says trade envoys carry a, quote, duty of confidentiality.
00:03:10.900
So Andrew could be in some serious trouble here if he violated that duty of confidentiality
00:03:17.400
by sharing British secrets with an American entrepreneur, especially one as controversial as Jeffrey Epstein.
00:03:24.200
To make matters worse for him, misconduct in public office like this is apparently one of the most serious offenses in British law.
00:03:31.720
If one is convicted, the potential sentence could be up to life in prison.
00:03:35.960
There is zero chance Andrew is going to prison for life.
00:03:40.680
It does technically carry that possible sentence.
00:03:43.420
King Charles III, meantime, releasing a statement indicating that he supports the authorities.
00:03:50.040
Listen to this, quote, I have learned with the deepest concern the news about Andrew Mountbatten, Windsor,
00:03:58.600
What now follows is the full, fair, and proper process by which this issue is investigated in the appropriate manner
00:04:06.360
In this, as I have said before, they have our full and wholehearted support and cooperation.
00:04:12.340
Let me state clearly, the law must take its course.
00:04:15.600
As this process continues, it would not be right for me to comment further on this matter.
00:04:19.860
Meanwhile, my family and I will continue in our duty and service to you all.
00:04:24.040
This morning, several prominent British pundits saying this is no less than an existential crisis for the royal family
00:04:35.880
and, and we'll explain why, for the British government, which many are now predicting will collapse and be replaced within weeks.
00:04:47.800

00:05:58.780
My goodness, you're the perfect person to talk to about this because there's no better royal correspondent than you.
00:06:05.200
And you've been saying for a long time how unpopular Prince Andrew is within the family and within the British populace.
00:06:15.820
There has not been a crisis like this in 90 years.
00:06:21.000
What happened 90 years ago, the Nazi sympathizing king, Edward VIII, abdicated.
00:06:28.960
Now, there are a whole load of scenarios here that could see King Charles having to abdicate as a result of what has happened today.
00:06:38.900
Remember, in the United Kingdom, he runs the court.
00:06:46.420
And so the idea that his brother Andrew will be on trial, potentially, I accept he hasn't been charged yet, but we're heading that way and we can get to that.
00:06:54.920
There are now nine police investigations, Megan, underway, into Andrew's links into Epstein.
00:07:03.260
The former Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, has today submitted a five-page memorandum to the Metropolitan Surrey, Sussex, Thames Valley police departments about the Lolita Express and the way that it was used to potentially sex traffic women to royal palaces.
00:07:19.700
And I just want to paint you the scenario that Andrew ends up in the king's court, in his brother's court.
00:07:27.140
Remember, there's only one person in the United Kingdom who can't be charged with a crime.
00:07:32.300
And he says, well, my brother knew about this and my brother paid £1.5 million in hush money to Virginia Dufresne, which is what was reported last week by the Sun newspaper, my former newspaper.
00:07:46.980
It feels untenable that Charles can stay on the throne.
00:07:52.460
You might remember there was a case, Megan, about 20 years ago when Paul Burrell, Diana's former butler, was charged with stealing Diana's possessions.
00:08:02.240
And he immediately brought the queen, the late Queen Elizabeth II, into his trial and said the queen knew about this.
00:08:11.840
Well, the trial collapsed overnight because you cannot have a situation where the head of the court is effectively on trial.
00:08:19.320
So there are a whole load of machinations going on.
00:08:22.980
And the one person and the one couple whose hands are completely clean in this scandal, Megan, are Prince William and Catherine, the Princess of Wales.
00:08:32.620
I mean, I ran a poll earlier today during my live broadcast of Outspoken.
00:08:38.140
And I'd say I've got a really pro-monarchy, pro-royal audience, Megan.
00:08:42.200
We love the British royal family, 75% of my audience saying that King Charles must abdicate here, must hand the throne to William and Catherine.
00:08:50.620
Now, his statement that you read out made it clear he has no intention of doing that.
00:08:56.960
But there are lots of paths that I believe could see that end up having to happen.
00:09:02.460
So in the path, are you saying that if Andrew calls Charles or needs Charles as a witness, like I told my brother the following and he blessed this payment or he blessed that thing, even though he was just Prince Charles at the time, he wasn't yet king, that that could drag him right into this legal proceeding and either kill the legal proceeding or kill Charles' reign as king?
00:09:28.980
Correct. Because no one really believes, Megan, that Andrew is going to plead guilty.
00:09:35.080
Why would he do that? I mean, he would get guaranteed jail time. I agree with you. It's not going to be life imprisonment.
00:09:41.820
That is the maximum sentence for misconduct in public office. But I know the type of guy that Andrew is.
00:09:48.340
He is not going to plead guilty here. I cannot see a scenario.
00:09:51.860
And what we don't have in the United Kingdom is the same type of deals that you can do in the US justice system where you make a plea deal.
00:09:59.380
That just doesn't really happen here. So there's no real motivation for Andrew to plead guilty unless he did want to keep his brother on the throne.
00:10:09.660
So there are serious questions for King Charles. And there are also serious questions for the British deep state, Megan.
00:10:14.640
I mean, this scandal has been hiding in plain sight for 15 years.
00:10:20.380
I was working at Murdoch's former newspaper, the News of the World, in a senior position in 2011.
00:10:26.560
We revealed those pictures. Do you remember? Of Epstein and Andrew in Central Park in New York.
00:10:36.160
Where Andrew went to visit Epstein after the conviction for soliciting a minor for prostitution.
00:10:41.500
Pretty controversial charge that he pleaded guilty to.
00:10:45.660
And it was, of course, we now know just the tip of the Epstein iceberg.
00:10:49.020
And Andrew went to see him and stayed with him, right?
00:10:57.220
This is where the deep state is pulled into this.
00:11:00.460
Because why have the police spent 15 years choosing not to investigate Andrew?
00:11:14.760
We're literally in unprecedented territory, Megan.
00:11:17.660
And just to give you a bit of colour about what's happening today, because we really never thought we'd see anything like this.
00:11:23.620
There are currently two teams of police on the King's estate searching the King's property.
00:11:30.960
So we've got Wood Farm in Sandringham, which is where Charles forced Andrew to move.
00:11:38.340
But that used to be the home until his death of Prince Philip, you know, the late Queen's husband.
00:11:44.060
So there are police currently searching that property.
00:11:46.920
But there are also currently police searching Royal Lodge, Andrew's former home in Windsor.
00:11:55.300
And that's on the Windsor estate, just a couple of miles from where William and Catherine live.
00:12:05.120
And look, the one person, as I say, who has his hands cleaned with you.
00:12:07.200
What kind of relationship do Andrew and Charles have?
00:12:16.420
But the problem for Charles, Meghan, is that it was him who decided to bring Andrew back into the royal fold.
00:12:25.240
So you'll remember the relationship between the late Queen and Andrew was really close, right?
00:12:34.620
I spoke to people very close to the late Queen who insisted to me,
00:12:38.860
the late Queen always believed that Andrew was innocent.
00:12:42.960
However, the big problem for Charles is that the Queen, despite feeling that way,
00:12:48.880
had completely banished Andrew from public life.
00:12:51.800
She had stripped him of his titles, stripped him of his royal duties.
00:12:56.200
But it was the King who made this unfathomable decision to bring him back into the fold,
00:13:03.800
You know, that is the number one photo opportunity of the year.
00:13:06.580
He even was allowed to bring his ex-wife, Fergie.
00:13:09.100
There were memorial services where Fergie and Andrew were the most senior members of the royal family to attend
00:13:16.540
because Charles, he's quite a woke guy and he believed in this concept of forgiveness.
00:13:21.980
Whereas you've got William, who has been saying, Meghan,
00:13:25.020
and I'm not doing William's PR here, this is honestly a fact,
00:13:28.280
he has been saying for seven years after that Car Crash Newsnight interview with the BBC,
00:13:34.180
where Andrew made a fool of himself and, by the way, told a tissue of lies.
00:13:39.020
I mean, almost as many lies as Harry and Meghan told to Oprah Winfrey, right?
00:13:44.180
And Andrew seven years ago, sorry, William seven years ago said,
00:13:49.880
He's got to be banished, just like Harry and Meghan have to be banished.
00:13:53.920
So for seven years, Charles made a big mistake.
00:13:57.640
And I also do just want to defend Queen Elizabeth II here because a lot of people in Charles's court at Buckingham Palace
00:14:04.680
are now trying to throw the late Queen under the bus.
00:14:07.760
Meghan, she was 94 years old and she was suffering from terminal blood and bone cancer,
00:14:15.420
something that we chose not to report at the time.
00:14:18.780
She effectively had handed on the monarchy to Charles, who was operating as a regent.
00:14:25.720
So when this payment of 12 million pounds was made to the late Virginia Giuffre,
00:14:38.980
And I think it's really grim blaming a 94-year-old with terminal cancer for that decision.
00:14:46.880
I mean, it doesn't seem surprising when you know, I don't know Charles's story as well,
00:14:52.480
but Andrew just sounds like he would do something like that in a heartbeat.
00:14:55.820
He would blame the late Queen, he'll blame Charles, he'll blame anybody and his wife ten times so.
00:15:00.640
I mean, there's a lot of correspondence in the Epstein files between Fergie and Epstein, whom she loved.
00:15:06.040
And she brought her daughters, the two princesses, to go stay with him right after, same thing,
00:15:16.200
I mean, it was daytime release to his office, but technically he was in jail for a year.
00:15:23.540
Neither one of those two cared at all that he'd be pleaded guilty to these disgusting charges.
00:15:28.420
And just so the audience is clear, again, right now he's been arrested for alleged disclosure of British secrets to Jeffrey Epstein,
00:15:38.440
Not the women thing, but all along we've been looking at Andrew and whether he sex-trafficked Virginia Giuffre,
00:15:44.360
meaning Epstein had her, quote, working for him.
00:15:49.540
She was under age 17, and she says one of the men she was trafficked to was Prince Andrew,
00:15:53.920
who she says had sex with her and that it wasn't consensual on her part when she was a minor.
00:15:59.180
And then to produce this picture of herself with Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell in the background,
00:16:05.180
which Prince Andrew would later say was fake and actually gave this interview to BBC Newsnight denying that he even knew her.
00:16:14.440
But now we see correspondence in the Epstein files between Epstein and a New York Times reporter
00:16:20.100
in which the Times reporter is saying they had consensual sex.
00:16:26.820
This is kind of an Andrew problem, and Jeffrey doesn't say they didn't have sex.
00:16:33.860
It seems to support the notion that indeed there was an interlude.
00:16:37.800
There's also a picture of Andrew over a young girl.
00:16:41.820
Her face is like blacked out, censored, who's scantily clad on the floor in what looks to be like a sexual, playful position.
00:16:50.180
And there's lots of correspondence between the two of them about hookups for Andrew that Jeffrey was going to provide.
00:16:58.900
Here is what Andrew told BBC Newsnight in Sot 2 back in 2019.
00:17:05.900
July of this year, Epstein was arrested on charges of sex trafficking and abusing dozens of underage girls.
00:17:12.960
One of Epstein's accusers, Virginia Roberts, has made allegations against you.
00:17:21.820
She says she dined with you, danced with you at Tramp Nightclub in London.
00:17:26.720
She went on to have sex with you in a house in Belgravia belonging to Gerlaine Maxwell, your friend.
00:17:35.020
I have no recollection of ever meeting this lady.
00:17:54.460
And she went on to have sex with you in a house in Belgravia belonging to Gerlaine Maxwell.
00:18:10.840
I'm almost, in fact, I'm convinced that I was never in Tramps with her.
00:18:17.200
There are a number of things that are wrong with that story.
00:18:20.060
One of which is that I don't know where the bar is in Tramps.
00:18:29.500
Um, I don't think I've ever bought a drink in Tramp, uh, whenever I was there.
00:18:41.840
I don't think, I mean, that's not what a truth teller sounds like.
00:18:45.120
If I said to you, did you ever have sex with Virginia Giuffre, formerly Roberts, in this bar and buy her drinks beforehand, you'd say, no, it never happened.
00:18:55.200
And the problem is, Megan, for Andrew, is that we now know that these were lies because we've seen all the back and forth between him and his team and Ghislaine and Epstein, where they even admit that the photo was legitimate.
00:19:10.060
Whereas you say they admit that there was consensual sex.
00:19:13.400
And even more grim was the fact, because remember, Andrew told Newsnight that he had actually cut contact with Epstein after that meeting in Central Park.
00:19:22.960
He was still sending Epstein emails, including pictures of his daughters at the time, sort of in their late teens and early 20s, to a paedophile.
00:19:34.880
You had Fergie, who apparently was in love with Epstein and may have even had sex with Epstein, talking about the fact that Eugenie, her youngest daughter, was off on a shagging weekend.
00:19:45.860
And the problem that Charles also has is that he allowed Beatrice and Eugenie to keep their princesses' titles.
00:19:53.980
They are still Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie.
00:19:57.400
And there is new reporting today, Megan, that actually they may be questioned under caution by the police, that Fergie may be questioned under caution by the police.
00:20:07.620
And, of course, we're in this position where Andrew also remains in the British line of succession.
00:20:12.980
OK, he's eighth in line to the throne, but is that tenable?
00:20:18.260
Right. That seems crazy that he could be stripped of his royal title, but still eighth in line.
00:20:23.320
Why might the British government go down over this whole thing?
00:20:28.100
Well, because the US ambassador under Donald Trump was a guy called Peter Mandelson, who is also neck deep in the Epstein files for doing exactly the same thing that Andrew is accused of.
00:20:47.340
And Keir Starmer, our corrupted prime minister, knew about his close friendship with Epstein, which was, by the way, far more than close.
00:21:02.020
But they are constantly swapping emails about sex with girls, sex with guys.
00:21:08.200
And Starmer hired him as the US ambassador, knowing about this close friendship.
00:21:18.080
He hasn't been arrested yet, but two of his properties have been searched.
00:21:21.720
So it's all well and good for Starmer to come out like he has today and said, oh, no one can be above the law.
00:21:27.880
And of course, Andrew should testify to the US Congress.
00:21:31.680
But the problem is he has been covering up for his own former US ambassador.
00:21:37.920
His chief of staff, Megan, has already had to go over this.
00:21:41.680
So Starmer, my belief, is he will be out of office as a result of this, too, probably in May after the local elections here in the UK, which are going to be devastating for him.
00:21:56.040
Is there any defense, do we know, prospectively, and I know this is all just breaking, that Epstein was an investor.
00:22:02.520
He was seeking his advice on whether these were good investments for the British people.
00:22:09.900
Like, why isn't he allowed to share confidential information with somebody he trusted when it comes to finances?
00:22:16.900
So we believe that will be the defense that Andrew takes up, too.
00:22:19.860
No, I was doing what was right for the country.
00:22:22.540
But remember, the prime minister at the time was Gordon Brown, who is actively helping the police with their investigation because he is so furious.
00:22:32.800
So you've got the prime minister of the day saying, no, Mandelson and presumably Andrew were not working with Epstein for the good of the United Kingdom.
00:22:44.020
But, yes, I do believe that will probably be the defense.
00:22:49.560
And there could be a question about whether it wasn't good for the British people, but it was good for Epstein.
00:22:55.400
I mean, that's really what I think where the police are going here, that he was doing a solid for his buddy, Epstein, who could have used this information to his advantage or to the advantage of God knows whom.
00:23:05.840
And that this was a nice quid pro quo in exchange for all the girls that Epstein kept funneling to Prince Andrew.
00:23:12.440
There seems very little doubt that Epstein wasn't using this to make money for himself.
00:23:19.180
And so that's why we end up in a position where it feels almost impossible to believe that Andrew can try and say that this was in some way trying to help the British public, help the British government.
00:23:31.680
And honestly, Megan, these are perilous times for Andrew, who I think will end up in jail, for King Charles, who I think is going to struggle to stay on the throne, and actually for William himself, who is like thinking, oh, my God, how the hell am I going to save the monarchy from this?
00:23:51.600
I mean, as you say, he's had a long history of trying to stand up against Andrew's presence, against his loser brother and his grifter wife.
00:23:59.900
And I feel like the British people would welcome a King William and Queen Kate with open arms at this point, Dan.
00:24:22.260
Dan's been on his own independent, and he's crushing it, and you can see why.

Now we're going to turn to some news that we've been wanting to get to for a while, like AOC's meltdown on the world stage.
00:26:39.840
Vice President J.D. Vance has just weighed in on it, and the 2026 Winter Olympics, providing us with some disgustingly unpatriotic displays and divine right order has stepped in.
00:26:52.680
So first, AOC decided to go over to that same Munich conference where J.D. Vance just tore up the place last year in stellar fashion.
00:27:02.060
And then Marco Rubio was excellent this past weekend in his messaging.
00:27:06.380
And AOC actually had the delusion that she could hang with those guys and make an appearance to show them what happens when a progressive comes to town.
00:27:19.540
I'm going to play it, and then I'm going to show you what J.D. Vance just said in response.
00:27:24.800
To all of you, and Congressman, I'll start with you, would and should the U.S. actually commit U.S. troops to defend Taiwan if China were to move?
00:27:34.640
You know, I think that this is such a, you know, I think that this is a, this is of course a very longstanding policy of the United States.
00:27:55.660
And I think what we are hoping for is that we want to make sure that we never get to that point.
00:28:02.800
And we want to make sure that we are moving in all of our economic research and our global positions to avoid any such confrontation and for that question to even arise.
00:28:18.720
She humiliated herself and proved that she's not ready for the international stage at all.
00:28:24.600
Um, she would have been better off doing the Gretchen Whitmer, like, ah, gee, as a governor, I don't know anything.
00:28:34.500
I don't, I'll get to this international stuff when I run for president, which I'm not doing now.
00:28:39.980
She, I'm sorry, humiliated womankind, if we're being honest.
00:28:46.120
Um, then it turned out that she had been training and preparing for this conference for three months, as reported in Politico.
00:28:53.120
She had an advisor, some top Politico guy who had been advising her for three months, not Politico as in from the magazine, but some political operative.
00:29:05.420
I mean, this is wonderful because, you know, she's like the great Hispanic hope of most of the left over the next few years.
00:29:11.900
They really think this woman has a shot at becoming president because she is kind of cute and does social media well.
00:29:20.540
There's also a poll out right now showing that Kamala Harris is polling better than J.D. Vance.
00:29:28.160
You should totally go with that and believe in every point.
00:29:48.340
Here is J.D. at President Trump's Board of Peace kickoff meeting this morning.
00:29:53.940
He spoke and had a bunch of world leaders there talking about how Trump has helped them reach peace like Pakistan and India.
00:30:03.220
President, very much for your leadership, but also for the kind words about me personally.
00:30:07.160
I knew exactly what I wanted to say, but then after the president said that I was so smart and that I didn't want to repeat our congresswoman who froze for 20 seconds over in Munich.
00:30:16.620
Now I'm tempted, sir, just to freeze for 20 seconds and just stare at the cameras and maybe they'll say nice things about me like they do about Congresswoman Cortez.
00:30:31.500
As we all know, they will never write anything nice about J.D.
00:30:35.160
By the way, I meant to say that the poll was between Kamala and Trump and it's showing Kamala beating Trump.
00:30:40.500
OK, that's imaginary because he's not running again.
00:30:43.060
But in any event, if you consider, you know, J.D. as a sub in for Trump there and that she might be beating J.D.
00:30:53.560
Here was Trump at the Board of Peace presentation this morning on that same AOC moment, SOT-19.
00:31:01.480
You watch some of the people that were at the event in Munich.
00:31:15.560
And she didn't do so well like J.D. did in college.
00:31:19.160
AOC, she was unable to answer a simple question.
00:31:24.460
And she could have said, well, I'm studying it and I'll report back to you next week.
00:31:30.160
But she just went, it's actually I think it could be a career ending answer because for 25 years, anybody running against her, I think Susie is going to use that that little piece of stuff.
00:31:49.240
And honestly, don't underestimate Trump as an assessor of what's working and what isn't on camera.
00:31:58.100
He hosted the number one show in America for some 10 years.
00:32:02.940
That's actually how Trump made a lot of his fortune later in life.
00:32:05.860
He's obviously been a successful businessman, but he made boatloads of dough off of The Apprentice.
00:32:13.700
And then she called The New York Times, her little stenographers over there to try to completely recast what her mission was.
00:32:21.480
They just wrote what she told them to as true stenographers will.
00:32:24.860
But it doesn't matter because the people who saw that, all the independent voters who saw that, know in their bones she's not ready.
00:32:32.560
And no amount of cleanup by The New York Times is going to change that.
00:32:43.960
And the reason you're not ready is because you're actually not naturally smart.
00:32:48.320
And so if you want to say anything resembling something smart, you're going to have to study.
00:32:53.620
And apparently you need better teachers because the one who was with you for three months couldn't get you to say the most basic answer on one of the most fundamental issues of our time, which is what the hell are we going to do if the Chinese try to take Taiwan?
00:33:13.180
Of course, the country has had a policy of strategic ambiguity where we don't really say what we're going to do.
00:33:30.360
You could see the little eyeballs like funneling through information.
00:33:34.140
And she's not familiar enough with, honestly, this very basic foreign policy.
00:33:38.440
We don't do a ton of foreign policy on this show.
00:33:45.140
Although she did get a lot in the media, not just the New York Times to try to run cover for her.
00:33:49.800
Here's the equally unlikable Abby Phillip from CNN the other night on her show, Sot 17.
00:34:01.520
But the question is also, what happens when the president, the actual president of the United States, does very similar things on the world stage?
00:34:10.960
So, look, I'll give you that AOC probably should have been more ready for that question.
00:34:15.580
But are we going to really pretend that the actual president of the United States has not made similar or perhaps worse flubs on the global?
00:34:24.260
Are we really going to pretend that you're the answer to CNN's need for fair and balanced coverage and new audience?
00:34:37.240
Your audience has been cut to below 400,000, which is a complete embarrassment.
00:34:45.900
And your cocky, smug sense of self ought to be wiped away in one ratings period.
00:34:55.720
That you're the most interesting thing on CNN and literally nobody's watching you.
00:35:01.100
You don't have a long job trajectory, sweetheart.
00:35:04.000
And when you eventually get fired as your network implodes and try to go out into the independent lane, you will fail there too.
00:35:14.960
And say things that attack President Trump while trying to sound reasonable but not being reasonable and constantly cutting off the one conservative on your panel and showing slight indignation whenever they make a good point for the...
00:35:35.680
She's got more people on her panel than she does audience members.
00:35:42.920
She also thought it was going to be a real slam on President Trump to talk about the Maduro raid in Venezuela and some basic geography that she also didn't know.
00:35:56.980
You know, we look at what happened in Venezuela, for example.
00:36:03.980
It is not a remark on who Maduro was as a leader.
00:36:14.900
That doesn't mean that we can kidnap a head of state and engage in acts of war just because the nation is below the equator.
00:36:31.620
Maybe they didn't have that on the bar where you were serving the cocktails.
00:36:36.780
There's nothing wrong with being a cocktail waitress.
00:36:43.120
But then when you run for Congress and actually are a sitting congresswoman, you need to study.
00:36:46.720
Then you actually do need to brush up on a few bare facts before you use them in your little talking point slams of the president.
00:37:10.860
You have absolutely no background in this department.
00:37:14.880
You came from a relatively tony private school in Westchester, which is one of the nicest, richest districts in America.
00:37:30.280
This woman is an actress cosplaying the part of a Latina congresswoman.
00:37:37.700
And I'm sick of the press running cover for her at every turn.
00:37:40.880
And because I know you are asking yourself, but what does Joy Behar think about all of this?
00:37:52.560
Who, by the way, it sounded a little hummina, hummina, hummina.
00:37:56.200
But, you know, compared to him, it's like Mensa.
00:37:59.100
I can take hummina, hummina from congresspeople and stuff.
00:38:05.600
I can't take it from the guy who says he's the leader of the free world.
00:38:13.720
Why don't you work on rehabilitating yourself out of your mention in the Epstein files for seeking to use Jeffrey's private jet and stop worrying about he whose name you will not speak?
00:38:25.660
How does ABC allow her to get away with this shit?
00:38:28.600
I mean, this is like ABC fancies itself as having one of the premier news organizations in the country.
00:38:35.080
And they let this nonsense go on every day on The View with their fake conservatives there.
00:38:42.260
Like the one, the blonde one, she's also supposed to be conservative.
00:38:49.940
She's as conservative as Nicole Wallace is over on MSNBC.
00:38:53.580
So, yeah, The View, as usual, is not doing well.
00:38:58.360
Now, we got to talk about the Olympics because I don't know if you've been watching the Olympics, but we've been catching some here or there.
00:39:07.560
We brought to you an AM update, and I'm sure you've been following somewhat, the story of this figure skater, Amber Glenn, who is extremely annoying and calls herself a woke bitch.
00:39:19.280
She decided before she went over there to get into her pansexuality and how it's so hard to be this kind of person in Trump's America because he's so awful and he hates gays, I guess.
00:39:33.880
She didn't really elaborate, but I suppose that's what she's saying because she said it's been very tough for gays under the Trump administration.
00:39:40.680
So, she, as, you know, I guess some sort of pansexual person on the world stage, decided she needed to speak out for the absence of LGBTQ rights in America.
00:39:52.880
America, where gays have complete equal parity.
00:39:55.980
So much so that their organizations have now been faced with a choice of either disbanding or getting on board the trans agenda.
00:40:02.200
And to the extent they get on board the trans agenda, all the gays have abandoned them.
00:40:07.560
Just because you're gay or lesbian doesn't mean you're a nut.
00:40:10.940
Most normal gays and lesbians have taken one look at this trans agenda and said, I'm out.
00:40:18.400
I just wanted to be true to who I was and my sexuality, which obviously is inborn.
00:40:23.940
And I'm not for chopping off the balls and penises of little boys who have a moment of gender confusion.
00:40:35.080
In any event, she's still out there claiming it's all the same.
00:40:38.760
And it's a very, very difficult country to be in if you're LGBTQ.
00:40:43.780
So, she decides, rather than to focus on her skating, to focus on the letter brigade and lecturing us all about how America needs to do better.
00:40:51.320
And then she was part of the women's skating team that won gold.
00:41:01.140
But, oh, and by the way, after she won her one gold medal, she came out and was very nasty.
00:41:06.600
And once again, came out with her little, I'm a woke bitch, whatever.
00:41:15.220
In any event, she did come out, no, and gave a little nasty, like, ha ha, I'm a woke bitch and I'm not sorry.
00:41:24.240
Didn't go so well for Amber when she had to perform alone for her own individual gold medal.
00:41:45.920
She does a triple axel and then she doesn't do what needed to happen after, which was some sort of another jump.
00:42:12.700
And I'll tell you something, it's not, maybe it is divine right order, quite honestly, but what I really think is she allowed herself to get distracted.
00:42:20.160
She was so focused on delivering her, let's go LGBTQs.
00:42:23.500
And really what she means is TQs because everybody else is fine.
00:42:27.480
That she wanted to make the Olympics about her and her cause as opposed to making it about us and our country like the Olympics are supposed to be.
00:42:41.200
And you know what Americans did who understand the actual mission behind the Olympics and what our athletes should sound like?
00:42:49.120
They turned on her so much she had to shut down her social media.
00:42:51.640
Now, if you are at the Olympics and you have to shut down your social media, you've made a grave error.
00:42:58.180
You've done something very wrong because Americans are very, very much inclined to support their athletes when they're abroad competing for our country.
00:43:08.700
They could not care less if you have a poor performance.
00:43:11.120
They're not, it's not like being an Eagles fan.
00:43:18.040
Look what happened to Ilya Malin the other night when he was supposed, I mean, he's like God's gift to ice skating.
00:43:27.620
His world championship skate was like the greatest skate that ice skating has ever seen.
00:43:31.600
And he got out there for this gold medal performance and completely botched it.
00:43:44.300
All we all wanted to do was give him a hug and say, don't worry about it.
00:43:49.340
And then there was a great story about how all these top athletes started calling Ilya.
00:43:54.100
The only name I remember is Tom Brady, but it really made me respect Tom Brady.
00:43:57.820
I have to say, very, very classy move of Tom who called Ilya to say like, don't worry about it, man.
00:44:05.020
That's a world-class A-plus athlete reaching out to another to say, I've been there.
00:44:11.880
And there's nothing that a news anchor or even a civilian could say to a guy like Ilya that would be as much of a soft place to fall as Tom Brady saying, let me tell you about my face plants.
00:44:27.580
America will stand behind its athletes if they fail.
00:44:30.680
They will not stand behind someone who bashes the country, especially on the world stage after we've literally wrapped them in the stars and stripes.
00:44:43.620
It's like one of the few moments where we really feel patriotic and we get behind one another and we feel super proud of the American flag and the American anthem.
00:44:51.620
And you can get in trouble just not for singing.
00:44:53.760
But this girl who gets out there and tries to lecture America on its civil rights because of the TQ issue.
00:45:00.580
I mean, she lumps the whole thing in because she understands she's not part of TQ.
00:45:18.340
And what she needs to do now, Amber, Glenn, to regroup is to take a lesson.
00:45:23.200
Okay, she needs to take a lesson from an athlete who did get it right, a skater, a skater who went out.
00:45:34.920
And he was asked after we beat Sweden how he feels.
00:46:08.140
By the way, they're about to skate in the final game against our evil top hat, Canada, who's been cheating left and right in these games.
00:46:18.080
That guy, Mark Kennedy, who keeps getting caught, pressing the stone, touching the stone after he's no longer allowed to touch the stone.
00:46:24.900
Now he's complaining that he was unfairly videotaped doing his cheating.
00:46:31.560
He's like, I was unfairly, surreptitiously videotaped.
00:46:39.260
First, the Swedes did it because they knew he was going to cheat.
00:46:47.680
And for the first time, Switzerland went non-neutral and said, cheater.
00:46:51.980
And these refs in curling are pathetic, I have to say.
00:47:00.660
You are not allowed to touch the stone, period.
00:47:02.840
And you can't touch any part of the rock once it crosses that hog line.
00:47:11.180
He touched that stone just as much as Harrison Ford romanced his.
00:47:16.400
And apparently he did it not only against the Swedes, but then again against the Swiss.
00:47:24.680
So let's see if their hockey team is just like their curling team.
00:47:28.020
Because you, sir, have humiliated yourself and your country.
00:47:35.080
Eileen Gu was born in America to, I think, an American father and a Chinese mother.
00:47:45.140
She had this privileged upbringing in San Francisco.
00:47:51.980
And then, because she got a big fat check from China, she claims it was to inspire young Chinese athletes.
00:47:59.520
She decided to skate in the Olympics under the Chinese flag.
00:48:02.860
So she gets all the advantages of being an American.
00:48:06.780
She gets all the support from her fellow Americans.
00:48:09.440
She takes an education at an American university, one of our most prestigious.
00:48:15.260
And then she flies the coop to go compete for China, where she reportedly got a check.
00:48:23.280
And Eileen Gu was a heavy favorite to win a couple of golds this week.
00:48:39.120
And you tell me whether this is a likable person.
00:48:43.620
Do you see these as two silvers gained or two golds lost?
00:48:47.600
I'm the most decorated female free skier in history.
00:48:59.120
Winning a medal at the Olympics is a life-changing experience for every athlete.
00:49:13.140
And so the two medals lost situation, to be quite frank with you, I think is kind of a ridiculous perspective to take.
00:49:24.280
I'm doing things that quite literally have never been done before.
00:49:35.220
The self-aggrandizing, self-flattery, the sneering, I'm the best, you will love me.
00:50:01.720
By the way, I don't think China's going to be happy with that.
00:50:04.520
So they're kind of, like, really prone to demands for excellence.
00:50:11.960
She's the highest-paid Winter Olympic athlete in the world, making an estimated $23 million in 2025 alone amid partnerships with Chinese companies, including the Bank of China and some Western companies.
00:50:25.580
She's never spoken out publicly against China's alleged human rights abuses, of course, because they won't allow that.
00:50:32.140
You're not going to get your payday if you do that.
00:50:34.520
But Eileen, no, she hasn't said anything, including what they've done to the Uyghurs and so on, because she wants her check.
00:50:42.540
And then when that reporter asks, like, the sweetest thing, like, is that a win of two silvers or a loss of two goals to the person who was favored to win the goals?
00:50:51.280
She gets her nasty, she gets her nasty, sneering self onto a reporter who probably makes $35,000 a year to effectively slap him down because she's Eileen Gu for China.
00:51:10.320
And she's, oh, she's somebody who also spoke out in defense of that Hunter Hess, who was ripping on America, too, the skier.
00:51:20.460
And she thought it was just fine for him to do all that.
00:51:24.740
And she got quick to get his back because she loves people speaking out about human rights at the Olympics.
00:51:31.740
It just won't be her, you see, because, you know, you could, like, get the death penalty in China if you say any of that shit there.
00:51:37.540
But she got her medals, and she got her endorsement deal, and she got to make that blue-collar reporter feel like shit.
00:51:49.480
However, we are rooting for our American men's hockey team in a game that starts in about half an hour.
00:52:01.780
I've been telling you he's coming, and today it happens.
00:52:06.300
It's President's Day because they believe wireless service should only cost you a couple presidents, just a little Jackson and Lincoln, to be exact.
00:52:15.560
For just $25 a month, Pure Talk gives you unlimited talk, text, and plenty of data.
00:52:23.840
They'd rather celebrate the Benjamins, Mr. Franklin, to be exact, and his day so they can charge your family hundreds every month.
00:52:33.980
Pure Talk is an American wireless company who supports our veterans and invests in a U.S.-only customer service team.
00:52:41.860
So when you call, you're talking to someone right here at home.
00:52:45.040
Pure Talk uses the same towers as the big carriers, so enjoy superior 5G coverage without the inflated price.
00:52:51.140
Just $25 a month for talk, text, and plenty of data.
00:52:57.920
Just dial pound 250 and say keyword, Megyn Kelly, and you will get 50% off your first month.
00:53:04.340
Again, dial pound 250 and then say Megyn Kelly to make the switch to Pure Talk.
00:53:09.780
I want to turn now to the latest on the Nancy Guthrie case, including a new hit piece from none other than Inside Edition taking aim at YouTubers on the ground in Tucson.
00:53:25.520
The ones trying to call attention to a missing 84-year-old.
00:53:29.360
Essentially telling them to pack up and go home, which is what the local representative from Tucson also said, a Democrat who told them to go home.
00:53:42.080
Meantime, criticism of Sheriff Nanos is reaching an all-time high.
00:53:45.280
My next guest I discovered through the Blake Lively coverage, but he's been covering the Nancy Guthrie case like no one else, and I have quickly fallen in love with this man.
00:53:59.980
Here are just a few clips and why I fell in love with Zach Peter.
00:54:04.320
The sheriff just said Savannah and her entire family, siblings and spouses included, are cleared in the whole case of their missing mom.
00:54:16.440
So do they have evidence that clears the entire Guthrie family, siblings and spouses included?
00:54:28.380
Let me get this straight in this Nancy B'nai Rancid case.
00:54:30.520
We're on day 17 now because we're still looking at this as a kidnapping when nothing about this fits the profile of a kidnapping.
00:54:36.460
And if anything, it looks like a murder and a kidnapping cover-up.
00:54:39.620
But whatever, let's continue to go down this wild goose chase of some random old lady snatcher that still has Nancy B'nai Ramsey.
00:54:50.840
I think I am fully done with Nancy B'nai Ramsey.
00:54:55.460
And every time I tell myself I'm going to stop covering this Nancy B'nai Ramsey case, like, it just sucks me back in every single morning.
00:55:02.560
Because now Sheriff Nananananos is on his celebrity press tour.
00:55:08.520
I'm sorry, but Nancy B'nai Ramsey is very clever.
00:55:14.340
It's so dark, and Zach Peter helps us do that while he helps keep us up to date on the latest.
00:55:19.080
Joining me now for the first time is Zach Peter.
00:55:20.760
He's hosted the podcast No Filter with Zach Peter, where he gives some hilarious hot takes on pop culture news and more.
00:55:33.580
And I feel like you're exactly where I am on this case, where it's like, I'm out.
00:55:42.080
Because there's like a new nugget where you're like, I've got to figure out what that means.
00:55:46.420
I mean, Megan, I feel like at this point we're one OJ glove short of a circus because it is just wackadoodle crazy every time.
00:55:54.920
I mean, it's just every day I feel like I'm at Guthrie fatigue, and then some new piece of information comes out that just throws me in another tizzy.
00:56:06.620
So like the reality show info came out yesterday that the sheriff's department has been cooperating for a reality show about their department, though it doesn't feature, what do you call him?
00:56:26.560
But yeah, reality TV show was all this whole thing was missing.
00:56:30.300
So, I mean, notwithstanding the fact that you're so funny and you find a way of making jokes out of this, which I really do appreciate.
00:56:39.880
You really have been following the case closely.
00:56:42.740
So I want to talk to you about a couple of like where you think it's going, because I think what you've been saying lately is you're just not buying the official messaging.
00:56:52.680
Yeah, I mean, in terms of where it's going, we're going into a snowstorm.
00:57:03.080
We have no DNA matches on any of the evidence, whether it's one of the 20 gloves that we're out there searching for or the DNA inside the house.
00:57:17.840
And I feel like we're still looking at this as a kidnapping when statistically, you know, these things have profiles, right?
00:57:24.380
Whether it's a kidnapping or a burglary or a crime against somebody that's elderly.
00:57:28.360
There is a very clear pattern and there is statistical data that follows that pattern.
00:57:35.580
And it's so strange to me that, you know, I mean, I'm saying Sheriff Nananananos, he's on his Taylor Swift Life of a Showgirl press tour right now.
00:57:46.560
I mean, you've been covering cases for a while.
00:57:48.160
For me, this is one instance where we have someone that's missing and we are seeing the family like very, very little.
00:57:56.500
There's no press conferences, press conferences.
00:57:59.160
We're not seeing them out searching for their mother.
00:58:01.320
We're not seeing, we're not getting daily updates from them.
00:58:03.940
I'm trying not to judge them, but like every day I'm getting more and more curious about what's really going on and what information we're hiding because it feels like the public is not getting the real story.
00:58:20.000
We haven't even seen them out, you know, joining in a search or like helping with the grid, you know, pattern where they walk the grounds.
00:58:29.440
I mean, prayer vigil or like even an everyday update.
00:58:36.640
It's just like every once in a while they drop like a 30 second video being like, if you have our mom, please return her.
00:58:44.880
And not even they, it's just Savannah at this point.
00:58:49.880
And she gives us like a quick, a strange quick update.
00:58:53.280
But it's even the tone of the video shifted from, you know, we're going to pay the ransom.
00:58:58.840
Like we're a family and we're in, we're going to pay.
00:59:00.600
And then suddenly the tone of the videos completely changes and they're not addressing, was the ransom paid?
00:59:10.040
Because Sheriff Nanos is out here giving us the impression that this is still a kidnapping.
00:59:13.660
And there's some strange old lady snatcher that's out there that has Nancy in a bunker somewhere nearly 20 days later.
00:59:20.400
And I'm just like, this is an 84 year old woman.
00:59:25.640
And, you know, we're, we have no sense of urgency.
00:59:28.960
You know, even his interviews yesterday, he was just like, you know, very monotone.
00:59:36.580
And I was like, oh, that's going to really scare this old lady snatcher.
00:59:39.680
Or Savannah's like playing with them and saying like, you know, please bring her mother back.
00:59:45.940
And I'm just like, this is a man that you guys believe has kept this elderly woman somewhere for two, for over two weeks now.
00:59:53.580
And we think suddenly he's going to have some compassion and be like, oh yeah, let me just drop her off at a local gas station.
01:00:03.180
And the sheriff is like, he's an enigma, that guy.
01:00:11.700
He's just doing like a one-on-one round robin with news organization after news organization.
01:00:18.420
Like, maybe he thinks he's going to do better in like a one-on-one setting.
01:00:22.220
But he just has to keep repeating the same thing over and over and over.
01:00:27.240
You think he, like, in a way it's more exposure for him because he just gets a bunch of play on each one's network.
01:00:34.260
He's got his JCPenney's finest and he's out there doing all these interviews.
01:00:37.880
But like, it doesn't make sense to me either because the interviews that he's doing contradict the information.
01:00:44.240
I mean, we saw Sunday evening we got an interview that says that nobody has been cleared, right?
01:00:49.500
No one's been cleared in this entire investigation.
01:00:51.400
And then suddenly, you know, 12 hours later, not even a full 24 hours later, he's unilaterally clearing the Guthrie family and saying that they're the victims.
01:01:01.440
And I'm just like, actually, no, we need to remember the victim here is Nancy Guthrie.
01:01:10.400
And until you bring her home and have someone in handcuffs with real evidence to pin this crime, you can't clear anybody.
01:01:17.440
Like, I'm not a detective, but I've watched enough true crime to know that nobody is cleared.
01:01:22.180
And in a case like this of a missing persons, the circle that you look to is their immediate circle, which includes their close family and friends.
01:01:29.160
So the fact that he did that and he made such a jarring, you know, 160, 180, clearing the family, to me felt like that was pressure from the family that's like, hey, the internet is starting to think that this is us.
01:01:48.920
And based off of the experts that I've heard, you know, it seems like this was a personal favor rather than a strong judgment call on his hands.
01:01:59.380
And meanwhile, it's like, well, if you don't want us to focus on the family, we're happy not to.
01:02:09.780
Have they all been able to account for their whereabouts on the night in question?
01:02:12.380
Just like, you cannot just 24 hours, not even, after saying no one's been ruled out, say they've been ruled out based on no new information and ask us to swallow it.
01:02:25.600
Because then the very next day he changed it to, they're not actively suspects.
01:02:31.040
Like, I'm not actively investigating them, however you put it.
01:02:35.900
They've done nothing to, like, make themselves suspects.
01:02:42.160
So we all know that this is a gift he gave to Savannah Guthrie, the one he says he's in touch with, not Tomas and Annie.
01:02:48.680
Right, which tells me he's enamored with the celebrity profile of this case.
01:02:53.260
And he, I mean, if he's willing to put his professional career, because it was so interesting that his statement even called out the media and said that they need to stand by their professionalism.
01:03:03.220
I'm like, excuse me, sir, you need to stand by your professionalism and not get enamored by the celebrity profile of this case.
01:03:09.760
Because just because you get a call from presumably Savannah, because as you've said, that's the one person that he said he's been in the most contact with with the family.
01:03:17.540
And he hasn't really talked to Annie or Tommaso, which from what we've seen, they were the last person, they were the last people to have presumably seen Nancy Guthrie alive.
01:03:26.860
They spent the night with her before she disappeared.
01:03:32.280
We've seen the officers in and out of their home.
01:03:35.160
We heard that there was one of their cars that was towed.
01:03:37.460
And we're not getting any real clear answers as to why they were they prime suspects.
01:03:42.760
Did you do enough to find out that they're no longer prime suspects?
01:03:45.540
And if not, then give the public some answers, because as I've also been very clear when it comes to the public interest in this case, we, the public, are funding this investigation.
01:03:55.360
The local sheriff's department and the FBI are being funded by local Arizona members and by all of us, right?
01:04:02.980
These are FBI resources that are going into this.
01:04:05.500
And from what we've seen, the Guthrie family has not offered up a single penny to help with this investigation.
01:04:13.560
They just received an anonymous donation of one hundred thousand dollars to one of the tip lines.
01:04:20.120
The FBI raised its own money for the hundred thousand dollar reward.
01:04:26.040
I suppose it could potentially be from a family member, but I'd be surprised because there was somebody saying he was going to donate the hundred thousand to that other tip line.
01:04:34.440
So, like, it's anonymous, but I don't know if it's really anonymous or if it's the guy who said he was about to do it.
01:04:39.560
Meanwhile, I have something to show you with the sheriff.
01:04:43.500
I had noticed the crying in one of the interviews he did.
01:04:48.500
I don't think I've ever seen, like, a cop running an investigation until, like, something devastating happened.
01:04:54.760
You know, like, I've seen cops, like, a child has died and been tortured come close to breaking down when they have to tell you this is how it's landed.
01:05:02.780
But that's not at all where we are in this case.
01:05:07.320
And this cop is the sheriff is giving interviews to everybody and their brother.
01:05:11.460
And as it turns out, he's been crying like on a dime.
01:05:23.720
What gives you hope that Nancy is still out there?
01:05:25.780
So you still believe this is an active rescue mission at this point?
01:05:54.000
I know you've been in contact with Savannah, who we know is in Tucson.
01:05:58.040
What is your message to her and the Guthrie family and all the viewers who care so much about Savannah?
01:06:13.300
And I'm going to be praying that you find Nancy.
01:06:22.600
We're in this era of men are allowed to cry and we're, you know, dominating toxic masculinity.
01:06:27.160
But sometimes we need to bring back a little toxic masculinity because I don't need the sheriff running this case to be in tears with every interview.
01:06:34.300
If that were my mother that we're missing and I saw sheriff going around giving all these interviews rather than, you know, focusing on the investigation.
01:06:42.340
And then crying in every interview as much as like, okay, yeah, I have a little compassion for you, but I feel like the family would be deeply troubled by this.
01:06:51.260
Me as just, you know, a member of the public viewing this and seeing him in tears just doesn't ring of much professionalism.
01:07:00.720
He's either performing these tears or, you know, he's way too invested, right?
01:07:06.600
Which, again, makes me question his professionalism and his, you know, his badge at this point.
01:07:13.000
If he's not able to separate personal from professional, I mean, you're on the force.
01:07:17.780
You're seeing crimes that are horrific that, you know, we the public hope to never see these details of, you know, in some of these horrific instances.
01:07:25.420
But, like, you can't even get it together for one interview.
01:07:32.320
I was like, you know, this is an emotional case.
01:07:35.520
And then his brother, I think, died in hospice care the same day Nancy Guthrie went missing.
01:07:44.100
This is a lot of crying for what's supposed to be a grizzled Southwestern U.S. sheriff.
01:07:49.260
You know, like, you want those guys with their thumbs in their belt loops and their gunslinger hanging there.
01:07:55.160
And they're going to, like, kick anybody's ass who messes with somebody from Tucson.
01:08:00.360
No, that and, like, this is a missing person, right?
01:08:03.680
And he keeps saying in every interview he believes Nancy's alive.
01:08:07.080
I mean, I feel like, and he also said it's going to take years for him to crack this code.
01:08:11.000
So I feel like in eight years when he finds her alive, you know, we'll have a happy ending to this case.
01:08:17.600
If he thinks she's still alive and he's trying to find her and they're hoping that they can bargain with this old lady snatcher, this alleged old lady snatcher,
01:08:28.740
You want people to have hope that she's still alive.
01:08:35.340
Why is it like, we're going to use the Florida lab and then we'll just run the results again at the FBI lab.
01:08:40.120
But a bunch of stuff has to happen in between then and now.
01:08:42.000
And then reportedly the Florida lab was actually closed over the weekend, delaying things further.
01:08:46.280
And I'm going to go to a basketball game in between.
01:08:52.080
But it could take years because I have a lot of basketball games to go to.
01:08:59.040
You know, he doesn't seem to have much conviction in any of the statements that he's making.
01:09:06.420
And it's like, again, we have to factor in this is an elderly woman.
01:09:15.880
Like, this is where you should be the most, you know, vigilant with trying to be on top of finding her because, you know, there's a race against the clock.
01:09:28.280
But what are you leaning towards as the operative theory?
01:09:31.480
I think something happened to Nancy very early on.
01:09:38.160
To me, it's just statistically and based off of the, you know, profile of a kidnapping, it doesn't make sense.
01:09:44.040
You know, you don't steal old ladies and babies, right?
01:09:51.440
It's not some young teenager or, you know, a young girl in her early 20s that you can just throw over your shoulder and take her to Mexico and tragically put her into the trafficking ring, right?
01:10:01.560
It's not—it doesn't fit the profile of a traditional kidnapping.
01:10:04.240
And also, the ransom notes of it all, like, this isn't the 80s.
01:10:08.140
It's so strange to me that in 2026, with the president of the United States, the FBI, the sheriff's department, and all of TikTok trying to crack this code, that we have absolutely nothing.
01:10:19.680
So to me, it feels like I'm leaning towards there's some information that's not being presented, and I'm curious as to why.
01:10:26.980
Either the sheriff is completely incompetent or he's compromised in some way.
01:10:30.680
I don't want to go down the conspiracy route of saying he's being paid off, but, like, it could be that he's so enamored with the celebrity profile that he's allowing his judgment to get in the way.
01:10:41.180
And then you factor in the early reports that we've heard of him, you know, not being very cooperative with the FBI.
01:10:46.660
So maybe he fumbled the ball and made a lot of mistakes early on, and so now he's just trying to cover up what a terrible job he's done, or he's trying to protect for somebody in the Guthrie family.
01:10:55.840
Finally, something in my gut and my instinct keep going back to the Guthrie family and there being some sort of connection or tie.
01:11:03.120
And anybody that's watched my show or watched my coverage of these cases, I've always been very good with my instinct.
01:11:08.840
I called out Blake Lively the second that New York Times article dropped.
01:11:12.180
I called out the LA fires the second, you know, they tried to tell us that this was, you know, climate change and the embers were flying 45 miles to light up all of Los Angeles.
01:11:21.580
I've always had a really good instinct, and my gut instinct here is telling me there's some sort of connection to the family, and they know something that they're not telling the public.
01:11:31.760
Hmm. I mean, I certainly hope the latter part is true, because what they are telling the public is all over the board.
01:11:37.980
Meanwhile, you've got, you know, that paragon of journalism inside edition weighing in to tell the YouTubers and influencers and other social media stars, get out.
01:11:50.180
We don't want you completely oblivious to the fact that everybody who's got a missing person in their life would kill to have this level of attention on their missing person case.
01:12:02.100
Whether it's an inconvenience to the neighborhood or whether the social media stars sometimes get things right or wrong or not.
01:12:11.860
Here's inside edition, and they're featuring the annoying Arizona state legislator Alma Hernandez.
01:12:20.180
Cops say they've had it with the army of YouTube streamers camped out in front of Nancy Guthrie's home.
01:12:26.560
We're here at Nancy's home to try to just get some information.
01:12:29.200
True crime influencers from across the nation have descended on Tucson, streaming for hours on end.
01:12:36.080
Now there is a person that they did spot with a backpack going through someone's gate.
01:12:43.080
Any snippet of information becomes major breaking news streamed live.
01:12:47.660
They're actually doing more harm than good right now.
01:12:50.760
Arizona state legislator Alma Hernandez has a blunt message for the streamers.
01:12:55.000
At the end of the day, if they really, truly want to be helpful, they should probably go home.
01:13:05.200
I'm sure she's going to single-handedly bring enough pressure on the local PD and the feds to make sure that they devote every resource to this case.
01:13:13.060
Because let me tell you, as soon as these influencers and all these media disappear, so do the 400 officers.
01:13:19.080
I mean, she's just embarrassed for her county, right?
01:13:21.360
She's embarrassed for all of Arizona because, I mean, what a laughingstock they've become.
01:13:25.480
This went from being America's grandma to this entire case becoming America's latest meme, right?
01:13:34.620
Like, it's just the investigation has become such a joke, which is so tragic.
01:13:38.280
And my heart breaks for the Guthrie family that this is where the investigation for their missing mother has gone.
01:13:43.380
And to have somebody like Alma come out on Inside Edition and attack the YouTubers and the TikTok sleuths, I'm sorry.
01:13:51.120
We've seen now that the internet has been an instrumental piece in helping to solve cases in recent years, right?
01:13:57.840
So the fact that she just wants everybody to go away, it's not because she thinks that they're hindering the investigation.
01:14:02.780
It's because they're highlighting what an embarrassment Pima County is and their sheriff's department.
01:14:08.500
She's embarrassed that it's a reflection of her community that she's a part of.
01:14:14.800
So that's the real reason she wants us to stop covering this is because she's embarrassed and she should be.
01:14:20.580
Why doesn't she run that by the Guthrie family?
01:14:22.660
Because I have a feeling that they want attention.
01:14:25.960
And Savannah, of all people, would understand that you're going to get NBC when you want attention and you're going to get YouTubers.
01:14:36.140
But also, I need to defend these content creators because they're giving us live coverage.
01:14:41.400
Like, Brian Enten is boots on the ground right now.
01:14:43.940
And we need to really acknowledge that, like, they're giving us real-time updates.
01:14:48.860
They're not waiting for a segment that's scheduled, you know, on daytime news or on the Today Show.
01:14:56.740
And the public is being informed by them because the sheriff isn't giving us this information.
01:15:02.240
As we speak, I've just got this update from Brian's YouTube or his ex-feed.
01:15:06.760
Just crossed into Mexico to see if people have heard of the Nancy Guthrie case.
01:15:13.780
He's, you know, he works for News Nation, but he also, he's on his own.
01:15:18.320
And it's his independent journalism that's really been driving a lot of the news in this case,
01:15:22.200
including that I mentioned he just reported last night that they are using polygraphs now in the Guthrie case.
01:15:28.060
All right, before I let you go, I've got to ask you, can you just weigh in on the Justin Baldoni-Blake Lively case?
01:15:34.540
Because there were settlement discussions last week that do not appear to have worked out.
01:15:39.340
So it does appear that this case is barreling toward trial in the spring.
01:15:46.700
And what do you think is really going on in that matter?
01:15:51.580
I had heard of some of the terms from both parties and what they were requesting in those settlements.
01:15:56.720
And I did not have faith that they were going to reach a settlement by the end of it.
01:16:02.560
I think Blake Lively's best case scenario right now, Baldoni's team has filed for a motion for summary judgment.
01:16:08.520
They're trying to get her case tossed out ahead of trial.
01:16:11.120
Judge Lyman has yet to actually weigh in on that.
01:16:13.700
I think Blake Lively's best case scenario is that the judge guts her case completely.
01:16:18.420
Because should it go forward to trial, I think she would be obliterated by a jury.
01:16:23.020
Because from the evidence that we've seen that's been made public on the docket,
01:16:29.160
And I think her reputation will be completely obliterated should it go before a jury.
01:16:34.040
Because they will laugh her out of that courtroom.
01:16:36.000
So I think her best case scenario, Judge Lyman guts her case.
01:16:39.760
She can come out, do her press tour, say she's going to appeal, say that the law is against women,
01:16:45.080
the patriarchy is winning, and, you know, a rich, entitled actress can't get her case heard before a judge,
01:16:52.780
And, you know, she can say that she's still going to be a champion for women.
01:17:05.000
But I don't think this case is going to be resolved on summary judgment.
01:17:07.700
I think they're either going to have to settle or go to trial.
01:17:10.060
The only sad thing is, unlike Depp versus Hurd, it won't be on cam, right?
01:17:16.880
So we're going to be stuck with a sketch artist trying to bring us the drama,
01:17:22.680
It'll be like the P. Diddy case, which we managed around,
01:17:25.500
but it wasn't quite as good as having the actual cross-examination.
01:17:28.380
Zach, whatever happens, we will be having you back on to talk about it.
01:17:35.160
Okay, coming up, we're going to have more on the Guthrie case,
01:17:38.400
including a deep dive into that polygraph news,
01:17:41.800
and then an update on the news that we brought you yesterday from Fox News Digital
01:17:46.200
on the searches that were being done online for where Nancy Guthrie lives
01:17:57.760
why does there often seem to be compromise when it comes to their food?
01:18:01.060
It's either fresh and healthy or easy to store and serve.
01:18:07.800
Founded by Dr. Tori Waxman, a veterinarian and mom
01:18:11.060
who got tired of seeing so-called premium dog food full of fillers and synthetics,
01:18:16.160
she designed Sundays, air-dried real food made in a human food-grade kitchen
01:18:20.920
using the same ingredients and care you would use to cook for yourself and your family.
01:18:24.800
Everybody's clean, it's packed with real meat, fruits, and veggies,
01:18:28.900
no weird ingredients, no fillers, and best of all, just scoop it and serve it.
01:18:36.400
Just nutrient-rich food that fuels their happiest, healthiest days.

Here with me now to break down more on the latest in the Nancy Guthrie investigation
01:19:35.660
is Will Geddes, security specialist and founder of International Corporate Protection,
01:19:40.700
and Jonathan Gilliam, former Navy SEAL and FBI special agent and author of Sheep No More.
01:19:48.080
So the latest today, and there's only a couple of headlines,
01:19:51.900
is this from Brian Enten, who reported this late Wednesday.
01:19:58.600
I was able to confirm that they are using polygraphs
01:20:02.940
when it comes to clearing people in the Nancy Guthrie investigation
01:20:09.760
I just, I'd actually heard about it for a while,
01:20:12.480
but I was able to finally report it today just based on the sources that I was talking to.
01:20:16.280
And this is pretty common in other cases that I've covered.
01:20:21.180
You know, polygraphs, essentially lie detector tests, are not admissible in court,
01:20:25.460
but the law enforcement, the FBI, will use them behind the scenes during the investigation
01:20:34.320
and I'm told they have used polygraphs to clear people in the Nancy Guthrie case.
01:20:38.820
Okay, but then Fox News' Matt Finn, about an hour and a half after that, reported,
01:20:45.080
Sheriff Nanos tells me the polygraphs today are for new hires.
01:20:49.520
And then Brian Enten responded an hour later saying,
01:20:53.000
the polygraphs I'm reporting about were not today.
01:20:56.800
So it's pretty interesting because the sheriff,
01:21:00.460
I don't know how Brian found out that polygraphs were being given.
01:21:05.920
And he, I don't, I didn't hear him say exactly who told him in that report,
01:21:10.040
but clearly the sheriff tried to tamp it down by saying those were for new hires.
01:21:20.620
but it seems like he's trying to hide the fact that he started to polygraph people,
01:21:25.600
which we were told earlier in this case is not a standard practice for the sheriff's office.
01:21:33.420
So the problem with polygraphs is they're not a precise science,
01:21:38.860
despite what one may have heard or seen certainly on TV and in the movies.
01:21:43.620
Where it is precise is if, for example, I said,
01:21:51.220
and said, did you go to Starbucks this morning?
01:21:59.640
If I said to you, because you'd had a bad morning,
01:22:02.780
Megan, did you go and get a coffee at Starbucks and intend to rob the place?
01:22:15.220
But the fact that they're using it in the background is kind of interesting
01:22:18.800
in terms of determining certainly just some of the categoric facts
01:22:23.560
of what they may want to identify in terms of people's movements
01:22:29.620
And remember, it has to be, it's based on specificity.
01:22:38.340
I, you know, I'm of two minds because I do find it very telling.
01:22:43.520
Like whenever you listen to the dateline and they give the polygraph,
01:22:49.000
Like you rarely hear that he passed it when he was actually the murderer.
01:22:58.780
But I know they're unreliable to the point where they're not admissible
01:23:04.960
And I also do wonder, given how protective this sheriff suddenly is of the family,
01:23:09.740
whether he would even bother giving one to a family member
01:23:11.900
versus like a landscaper or a pool cleaner or a maid.
01:23:14.940
Well, I'll tell you, in this type of situation where polygraphs work very well
01:23:21.020
So you got to remember that the polygrapher is a statement analysis expert.
01:23:27.300
The machine really is a game that they use to test the response that a person has.
01:23:34.300
And that's where you can actually see deception.
01:23:39.800
It's not like, you know, it has some kind of special vision to look inside the body.
01:23:43.980
But what it does is it maps certain things that they say,
01:23:48.360
which you would be so surprised how people say things certain ways when they're lying
01:23:57.480
The machine picks up on things like sweat or spikes in the heart rate.
01:24:02.900
And so in this type of situation where they're bringing people in to quickly see
01:24:08.800
if they have done something or if they have an understanding or any knowledge of an incident
01:24:14.200
or an action, then they may be able to get in the totality of those things.
01:24:22.180
Because if you do know how a polygraph works, it's easier to defeat it.
01:24:28.220
But if you don't know how the whole game works, it's very difficult.
01:24:31.740
And most people just don't know, especially when you're grabbing people very quickly in
01:24:37.600
And yeah, there's no way the landscaper knows how to beat the polygraph.
01:24:45.320
And also, as far as like, would this sheriff, would he use the polygraphs now on family members?
01:24:54.540
Now, we know that at the beginning, I went back and listened to the whole timeline.
01:24:59.180
And it's he was saying that, you know, nobody is ruled out.
01:25:07.560
This is the same sheriff, though, that I was just reading through the timeline right here on
01:25:11.220
February 2nd, which is a day and a half after Nancy went missing.
01:25:16.680
He says that they were going to give the investigators, they had stopped the investigation or shut it
01:25:24.880
And then the very next statement, he says, we believe now after we proceeded or we processed
01:25:30.900
the crime scene that we do, in fact, have a crime.
01:25:39.120
And that was his excuse, his excuse for calling off the search and rescue.
01:25:56.500
Well, I, Megan, it's defeating me in terms of some of the logic that we're seeing in the
01:26:02.340
way that he's executing the management of this investigation.
01:26:05.180
And I think the stress is already beginning to show and the cracks are beginning to show.
01:26:15.840
That is not going to instill any kind of confidence in the family or anyone else for
01:26:21.320
And I would have no doubt, although I'll let Jonathan speak on behalf of the FBI, it wouldn't
01:26:26.220
give me any faith if I was in the investigative arm of the FBI committed to this particular
01:26:32.100
case in the integrity and the credibility of some of the actions that the sheriff is
01:26:39.720
But the fact that he opened, you know, from beyond the points that Jonathan's just made,
01:26:43.860
that the fact that he opened up the scene of the crime, the house didn't maintain and
01:26:49.520
hasn't maintained a cordon and the fact that he's discounted immediate family members when
01:26:54.500
there is no discernible or determinable reason or understanding as to why Nancy is not in
01:27:02.460
And there are evidences and traces of blood that can be corresponding to her showing on
01:27:09.800
It's the whole thing's just getting a bit bizarre.
01:27:11.840
I'm not a detective, but I have gleaned that you're British and I, I, I imagine that you
01:27:18.140
go by the stiff upper lip policy, which it means no crying unless it's like a severe,
01:27:23.460
severe need, like a, an immediate family member has died and you're at the funeral and a prayer
01:27:30.660
Like, I don't, you're a Southwestern sheriff in Tucson, Arizona, near the border.
01:27:38.360
I didn't realize it had been happening in like every other interview.
01:27:41.000
And to me, it looks like he's intentionally calling up the tears, which I like, why Jonathan,
01:27:50.400
I just feel like it's a very, very limited window where cops can cry.
01:27:54.920
And it's usually over a deceased child or like something incontrovertibly, incredibly sad
01:28:01.320
that any human would, would not be able to stop themselves.
01:28:06.620
I mean, that's on conclusion of the actual case.
01:28:09.420
And it's the determination of a body is the determination of the crime.
01:28:16.540
But as the old saying goes over here with the stiff upper, upper lip is there's a time
01:28:24.160
If you, if you, if you want Jonathan, I feel like you, you never cried on the job in this
01:28:28.320
I can not, I can not see it only because of the bad management that I would sit and
01:28:35.320
But, but Megan, if you really want to see the reality of these tears from this sheriff,
01:28:41.960
go look at the interview that John Huddy from Newsmax did with him, where he gets enraged
01:28:48.960
And I don't remember what the question was, but it wasn't a, it wasn't a pointing question.
01:28:53.720
He just was trying to get some facts and he just was enraged.
01:29:00.440
So it, you know, who is he talking to when he has these, these tears or these red eyes?
01:29:08.020
I mean, I hate to bring it up like that, but that's, that's the absolute truth.
01:29:11.580
But it does seem like it's an affectation, Jonathan, doesn't it?
01:29:14.620
It doesn't, to me, it seems like he's forcing it.
01:29:17.540
Like whenever he gets to like, oh, geez, I really hope she's still alive.
01:29:21.020
To me, I feel like he's, he's calling up something that makes him sad.
01:29:24.300
Maybe it's the death of his brother recently and like forcing it to show us he's this like
01:29:29.860
Like we've got a sheriff in command who's like feels our pain and maybe he knows his jurisdiction
01:29:35.040
well, and that's what these Democrats in Tucson want.
01:29:37.420
But I can tell you out here in the heartless media, it's definitely not what I want.
01:29:40.940
I want a tough as balls cop who's in there like kicking ass and solving crime.
01:29:47.420
I think what I've seen from this type of personality and this, this liberal type of mentality is that
01:29:54.680
when they're talking to people that they identify with, they present their emotions.
01:30:00.120
When they talk to people that they don't identify with, the only emotion that present is anger.
01:30:04.880
That seems to be the case in most of these situations.
01:30:08.180
So, you know, I listen, as long as the investigators that are, that are on there doing the, doing
01:30:14.420
the real work are working hard and diligently doing what they need to do, I think we'll get
01:30:21.020
But I, I just have lost faith in, in law enforcement executives.
01:30:30.020
Here's the former Pima County chief deputy sheriff, Richard Carmona, who has spoken out
01:30:36.060
now on behalf of not just himself, but it sounds like some other law enforcement out
01:30:43.720
Many of my colleagues in law enforcement here had some concerns with the way the sheriff was
01:30:48.160
managing this and especially his communication or very poor communication to the public, making
01:30:53.900
statements that were, well, quite frankly, just awful and, and incorrect and taking actions
01:31:01.840
So a number of us decided we needed to say something about it because we did not want
01:31:06.140
it to reflect on our community and the sheriff's department, which has been an extraordinary law
01:31:12.280
enforcement agency that I worked with for three decades and had a national reputation.
01:31:17.100
But this aberrancy hopefully will go away and we'll get back to doing what we're supposed
01:31:21.340
But we're all, I speak for most law enforcement in Southern Arizona, that we are very unhappy
01:31:26.180
with the way this sheriff has conducted himself during this very important investigation.
01:31:31.120
In asking what my colleagues feel, all of us have been very embarrassed with the way
01:31:40.040
I think I know why the sheriff's doing one-on-one interviews with the media now instead of a presser.
01:31:54.080
I mean, he, and the thing is, is it also is showing that he doesn't have the experience
01:32:00.680
I've managed some instance which have been significant and undeterminable in the first
01:32:05.920
And it takes some time to actually pick it to pieces to determine and find out and establish
01:32:11.180
what's actually happening or what has happened.
01:32:20.280
And he fits the profile of the type of individual that, you know, comes in very robust in the
01:32:25.500
first instances, but cracks after a very short period of time.
01:32:29.440
They have little puff inside them and they are spanked within a very, very short period
01:32:36.980
And it's also something that we were talking about last week, Megan, which was you keep
01:32:42.320
And you're very cautious about what information you release because inevitably, and particularly
01:32:47.560
in these times of social media influencers, anything you say is going to be interpreted.
01:32:52.280
It's going to be scientifically torn apart and forensically torn apart by analysts like
01:32:58.620
ourselves, like Jonathan and me and your other panel members.
01:33:01.440
And we're going to interpret it based on our own experiences.
01:33:05.760
And to me, he's just showing that he is not strong enough.
01:33:09.200
If he lost his brother recently, that's awfully sad, but he should be taking compassionate leave
01:33:13.620
and move this entirely over to the FBI, second his team to them.
01:33:17.780
And they can crack on, do the actual work and ensure that the messaging is accurate, but
01:33:36.640
They have not been identified as suspects, which is not the same as ruled out.
01:33:40.700
Like all over the board, the rest of us all have whiplash and trying to keep up.
01:33:43.880
Now that I'm updating the record, I want to update two other things I said on the show.
01:33:47.240
It's not the men's hockey team that has the final today at 115.
01:33:50.060
It's the women's American hockey team against the evil top hat neighbors, Canada.
01:33:55.140
And then the men's are still going into the semifinal.
01:33:57.560
And if they make it, then they'll play on Sunday.
01:34:00.160
And one other correction, courtesy of my husband, Doug, romancing the stone was Michael Douglas,
01:34:10.920
I want to talk about the possibility of a second suspect.
01:34:16.140
Um, we've talked before about the one image released by Kash Patel, where the perpetrator
01:34:21.660
on Nancy's doorstep isn't wearing his backpack or his little reflective, I don't know if they're
01:34:29.760
I've never figured that out on the backpack, but he definitely had that mouth light.
01:34:34.740
And his face mask looks like it's on backwards.
01:34:37.440
You can't see eyes or mouth in the one shot of the guy.
01:34:41.060
People are comparing that shot and its background where they're looking at the sky to the, what
01:34:49.960
we know is the actual abductor on the night in question, who does have all the gear on
01:34:56.020
And the night that Nancy was taken, it was apparently a full moon.
01:34:59.160
It was brighter out in the sky than it normally is.
01:35:01.980
They don't allow really a lot of lights on in Tucson.
01:35:04.060
And you can see that in this side-by-side that the, where we see the for sure abductor,
01:35:08.900
the guy who messed with the doorbell, the sky's a little lighter.
01:35:11.880
And then on the right, you see the guy without all the stuff on him.
01:35:17.060
And every time we've taken a close look at these photos, we see the difference.
01:35:20.640
The sky is lighter with backpack man and it's darker with non-backpack man.
01:35:25.080
And that has led to some people saying, maybe this was a dry run by the same guy, or maybe
01:35:36.920
And here's the second piece on, I don't think it's a different guy because the outfit looks
01:35:42.100
the same to me, but okay, let's just keep an open mind.
01:35:46.400
Um, this is again, thanks to somebody online who took a look at whether the, at the suspect,
01:35:54.000
uh, you know, getting the vegetation and messing with the ring doorbell and, and asked the
01:35:58.560
question, is it possible he's, he's actually about to knock that he, that he was about to
01:36:04.260
knock on that door with the theory that somebody might've been inside, like an accomplice might've
01:36:18.760
And then instead he sort of turns and he gets, I mean, it does look like he's knocking on
01:36:22.840
the ring cam there, but what do you guys think about the possibility that a, there were two
01:36:29.100
of them or B that those two photos were not even taken on the same night.
01:36:34.940
And that the one photo of the darker background is this same perp doing recon in advance of the
01:36:41.580
Uh, I think when we look at that video, the, it depends on where that camera is located,
01:36:47.560
because if it's right above where the doorknob is, it almost looks like he's reaching to see
01:36:52.380
if the door is unlocked as he covers the camera.
01:36:58.820
So he's, he's reaching for either the doorknob or, or that might be something that has to
01:37:05.540
do with the screen or a glass door or something, but you can see the knob right there.
01:37:09.540
I don't, I don't think that he was, um, uh, what was, what were you saying where he, he
01:37:18.040
I see a coverup of the, of the camera at that point.
01:37:20.240
And as far as those two pictures go, I see the same exact individual.
01:37:23.940
I just don't see, uh, the, uh, the light reflecting as brightly.
01:37:30.000
Um, there could have been something in the way of the camera at that point in time.
01:37:35.540
And so, you know, I, I, and I think if you enhance this in any way, you'd probably see
01:37:41.700
I mean, you can kind of see them in that same jacket, same reflective strip that goes across,
01:37:47.300
So it depends on when they, they caught this, but I would say from stature and clothing and
01:37:53.700
the colors of the mask and the gloves, it looks like the same exact individual.
01:38:00.120
Well, my, my gut is leaning on your, your second question, Megan, because I agree entirely with
01:38:05.040
Jonathan and his, his, uh, perspective on that.
01:38:07.860
My position on whether there was more than one person there on the night, um, would be
01:38:14.320
leaning more towards it being a single individual.
01:38:16.840
And the reason for that is based off the, one of the sheriff's spurious briefings that
01:38:22.140
in interviews that he gave, uh, when the question was asked, and I, I spoke with a panel
01:38:26.740
during one of the breaks last night about this, uh, he was asked about the retriever of the
01:38:32.020
cameras and the recovery of obviously the imagery from Google, from the Nest camera.
01:38:37.540
And what, uh, the, the journalist sadly missed, uh, the opportunity of is that the sheriff mentioned
01:38:43.700
cameras in the plural, uh, and the, uh, journalist didn't sadly press him to ask him how many extra
01:38:52.000
And my hopes would be that if cash released one photograph, if these other cameras were
01:38:58.760
there, unless they had failed and there's no reason why the sheriff couldn't say, you
01:39:02.940
know, those cameras weren't operational and they were, they had failed for one reason or
01:39:06.860
another, uh, why there wouldn't have been footage captured from those, uh, of a second
01:39:11.940
individual who might've been coming into the rear of the property.
01:39:14.380
So at the moment, until some evidence is proven otherwise, uh, I think we're only looking at
01:39:20.920
one individual, but that's on the night of Nancy's disappearance.
01:39:25.240
This advanced reconnaissance, that's not untypical.
01:39:28.720
Uh, even burglars might come and do a, what we call a soft probe.
01:39:32.500
And that is just to test the house to see what security there might be, what levels of resistance
01:39:37.860
The one thing we know with burglars, they're always looking for that path of police resistance.
01:39:41.420
So they want it to be easy and that's why I've discounted the fact that this is potentially
01:39:47.920
And obviously the fact that Nancy's disappeared, uh, what that actually is, uh, again, we have
01:39:55.980
Updating the report on the Google searches yesterday, um, Google pushed back on the Fox
01:40:04.340
And they say Google trends does not show actual volume of queries.
01:40:09.160
Just to update the audience yesterday on this show, we broke the news, uh, that Fox had
01:40:14.520
broken on its digital property that they had found Google trends had found somebody had
01:40:19.920
searched for Nancy Guthrie's address on Google and on certain dates preceding the kidnapping
01:40:26.720
abduction and had searched for Google images of her show.
01:40:33.620
Someone searched for Savannah Guthrie's salary.
01:40:37.460
And now Google, after the, you know, later in the afternoon, they pushed back with Fox
01:40:41.920
news digital saying we do not show actual volume of queries.
01:40:46.040
So the suggestion that an individual person did a given search is not something you can
01:40:50.040
claim, at least not based on our Google trends tool.
01:40:54.280
They say for queries with very low or even no search volume at all, Google trends charts
01:41:00.440
will show statistical noise as a privacy protection measure because of this Google trends charts
01:41:07.880
are not definitive evidence of a specific search having occurred.
01:41:11.460
It sounds like they're trying to say they'll only register it if a few people searched for
01:41:17.040
And if it's just like one person, you would see it as noise on their trend line.
01:41:23.880
And, but something showed up that Fox digital found it and they were clearly pointed to it.
01:41:30.080
Like they say, Fox news has learned and I don't know who pointed them to it.
01:41:34.460
So I'm not sure if it's as solid as they led us to believe it was yesterday.
01:41:38.940
Fox has changed its report to an internet user may have searched for Nancy Guthrie's home
01:41:46.400
And there may have been activity for her address in the Catalina foothills, the hills, uh, before
01:41:52.640
she was abducted, which may have been seen again on January 11th.
01:41:59.180
And then they say, um, her salary, Savannah's salary may have been searched from Tucson sometime
01:42:10.260
We gotta, we gotta say goodbye to our Sirius XM.
01:42:12.500
Um, well, we gotta sign off for this hour cause I'm going to turn it over.
01:42:15.940
Um, I'm going to have to have a, take an ad and then, but we're going to come right back.
01:42:19.900
So I'm going to get you guys to weigh in on this right after the break.
01:42:23.000
And then I'm going to show you a segment from the today show, uh, in full that I want your
01:42:38.820
And it is where you will hear the truth unfiltered with no agenda and no apologies along with the
01:42:44.900
You're going to hear from people like Mark Halperin, Link Lauren, Maureen Callahan,
01:42:48.960
Emily Drushinsky, Jesse Kelly, real clear politics, and many more.
01:42:53.140
It's bold, no BS news only on the Megan Kelly channel, Sirius XM 111, and on the Sirius XM app.
01:42:59.700
Back now with Will Geddes and Jonathan Gilliam.
01:43:07.300
So what do you make on Google Trends, pushing back on the Fox digital reporting and saying,
01:43:13.320
you can't really know what you purported to know.
01:43:17.380
And if it were just like one person doing a search, it wouldn't register at all.
01:43:30.420
Well, my cynical side to this is Google is a incredibly capable organization that works
01:43:40.300
And that's data collection and data transferal and distribution.
01:43:44.720
So in terms of things like Trends, my cynical side would be that they allegedly would have
01:43:50.060
the capability to capture the IP addresses of any kind of search in any particular kind
01:43:55.560
And we saw, certainly by some of the Snowden releases, certainly in terms of Prism and that
01:44:01.820
operation, which was capturing lots of people's private data without their knowledge, that allegedly
01:44:07.340
they may have the capability to be able to do so.
01:44:10.020
So I think Fox clawing back on their statement, yes, perfectly understandable.
01:44:15.140
And unless we knew exactly what the back end is to the Trends system, it's very difficult
01:44:19.820
to say either way whether they could or they couldn't.
01:44:22.620
But I think the issue for Google would be there is a certain amount that they need to keep
01:44:28.980
If I was a big data company like them, certainly I wouldn't necessarily be revealing all the
01:44:38.780
And the reason I like it, Jonathan, is I worked at Fox for many years and I feel pretty confident
01:44:44.960
that they have no contacts at Google whatsoever.
01:44:48.280
Google is a left wing, woke Silicon Valley type company that is not Fox territory.
01:44:55.260
However, Fox does have very good connections with law enforcement at the federal and local
01:45:01.500
level, including the FBI, which sounds exactly like the kind of organization that might have
01:45:06.700
figured this out and knows that it happened and possibly leaked it to a friend at Fox Digital.
01:45:13.960
And then Google would have possibly freaked out and said, no, no, no, no, no, we don't do
01:45:20.680
But my feeling is Fox probably got this from law enforcement, probably the FBI, and therefore
01:45:28.620
I would say that they probably got it from from the NYPD if they got it from, you know,
01:45:33.420
NYPD has an incredible intelligence unit, but they also have a terrible habit of leaking
01:45:40.100
And so that like that, that could be where that came from, you know.
01:45:44.440
But when we look at again, you know, Megan, I always come on here and say the totality of
01:45:49.180
the circumstances when when I look at all the things that we do have that make sense.
01:45:53.120
And then I'll look at this one Google thing that they have, whatever you want to call
01:45:58.500
I wouldn't call it evidence, but, you know, people look up other people that they see
01:46:03.200
on TV all the time and then they look up how much they make.
01:46:09.080
Maybe they live in Arizona and they look that up.
01:46:15.180
I mean, if I could dig something up and find an IP address, I would do that.
01:46:18.020
I mean, crazier things have led to solving a case.
01:46:23.700
I don't know, especially if it was the same person, if it was the same person who looked
01:46:26.720
up Savannah's salary right around when they looked up Nancy's home.
01:46:30.080
There's one thing that you we talked about or you played on the other show that I would
01:46:35.240
I would still think that law enforcement needs to look into some of this stuff was the the
01:46:39.980
excerpt from the book where she talks about the kidnapping game that she had with her cousin.
01:46:45.240
And I did a you can look on on X that segment went everywhere, by the way, everywhere.
01:46:51.220
You would not believe the number of people who have contacted me over that.
01:46:53.600
Everybody I listen to that, their face looks exactly like mine did when I was listening
01:46:58.560
And so I did I've been talking about this, about the distance they could have traveled
01:47:05.000
The sun came up if they were there until close to three o'clock in the morning.
01:47:10.420
So I did a post on X where I show a circle that encompasses anywhere you could go within
01:47:15.580
basically two hours, because I believe that's that is where they would at least have either
01:47:20.060
dropped her body if they had it or they would have stopped and waited until they could move
01:47:28.580
And as the sun comes up, it's a terrible time to be moving somebody.
01:47:33.020
And what's interesting is inside of that space, when I was re-listening to that last night,
01:47:39.260
that segment, she talks about how they would their cousin would put them in the car and then
01:47:45.520
they would go and stop somewhere between Tucson and Phoenix and call the mom.
01:47:50.180
And when I heard that, listening back to that, that's within that circle heading towards Phoenix.
01:47:57.620
And, you know, I mean, stranger things have happened where either somebody heard this or
01:48:02.460
there could be some family member who has some kind of weirdness about fixation on them and
01:48:07.320
they don't like them and they basically did the same thing.
01:48:11.020
I would start looking between Tucson and Phoenix.
01:48:13.800
These are the types of clues that you could go on.
01:48:16.620
If you're going to look at one search on Google, then you should be looking at this type of
01:48:27.220
So this is where social media influencers do a fantastic job, by the way, where media or
01:48:31.940
where cops say, yeah, social media influencers say, yeah, I'm going to look at that.
01:48:37.080
I don't have it in front of it, but we named the woman who found it, who who we got it
01:48:41.660
from when we first did it. And it was a social media person.
01:48:44.320
It's like the same person that all these inside addition and this local representative are saying,
01:48:51.900
No, I mean, I again, in addition to what Jonathan was saying, the one the two things I'm really
01:48:57.300
interested in is the retrieval of any footage in the neighborhood by neighboring residences of the
01:49:04.280
patterns of behavior, any particularly unusual vehicles that can't be attributed to any of
01:49:08.960
those residences or to a particular business or to a specific individual that could be
01:49:15.000
discounted. It's that pattern of life happening in the neighborhood, which I think in the
01:49:20.500
preceding weeks, which is really key, because anybody who's going to be carrying out a malicious
01:49:25.100
attack, murder, assassination or kidnapping, they're going to plan their operation remotely.
01:49:30.460
They will retrieve as much information through open source, you know, going onto Google, going
01:49:35.760
onto Google Earth, looking at various things, seeing if the fabric, the landscape has changed
01:49:40.640
right up until the very last minute for when they actually carry out their operation.
01:49:45.440
And the second thing is the cellular data and the cellular data from the local towers.
01:49:50.160
It will be mapping again and attributing some of the IMEIs to various residents and determining
01:49:57.220
what some of the foreign ones, the IMEIs to the residents. So the particular handsets to
01:50:02.900
what's an IMEI? IMEI. So that's the identifying number to each handset. So your cell phone will
01:50:10.300
have a totally different one to Jonathan's as it will to mine. But what it will do is it's your own
01:50:14.780
personal signature to your device. And it will be very easy and very simple to actually go through
01:50:21.540
that data very, very quickly to determine, okay, this IMEI is the immediate neighbor to the left
01:50:27.680
of Nancy. This IMEI is the neighbor to the immediate right, opposite, so on and so forth.
01:50:33.960
And what other IMEIs? And they can be whitelisted. And then you can narrow it down to any new IMEIs
01:50:40.920
that have come in. You can then attribute those to DoorDash guys, to delivery guys, to UPS, to all
01:50:45.940
those until you start narrowing the field to, is there one that keeps showing up? And it should
01:50:50.540
be done over a period of time. So, Will, I mean, here we are going on, you know, we're two and a
01:50:56.040
half going on three weeks since she was taken. Yeah. Wouldn't they have that data already? Does
01:51:00.860
this, should we be concluding now the guy did not have a phone on him? Well, I don't think he'd be
01:51:06.480
professional enough to go on this operation. Well, I mean, the way he was carrying his firearm,
01:51:10.660
I would say is indicative of his level of professionalism. Yes, he had a ski mask, but
01:51:15.560
hey, you know, who doesn't these days? I think they may very well have that data. But we did see,
01:51:22.140
Megan, you showed that footage, was it yesterday or the end of last week, where there was someone
01:51:27.660
up a ladder on a neighboring house retrieving one of the cameras, which was there. So that would tell
01:51:32.840
me that they haven't gathered all that data yet. But I would hope that the network's working with
01:51:37.700
them, certainly on the cellular data, and would be providing that pretty quickly and expediently.
01:51:42.800
They may be sitting on it whilst they're joining this jigsaw puzzle of evidence or intelligence
01:51:46.920
together. I would be, if I was, and they probably are, that's one of the first things the Bureau does
01:51:52.280
in most investigations. So I'm pretty sure that they've pulled that information. But I would be
01:51:58.340
going back and pulling that all the way back, you know, month or months before and looking at that
01:52:03.420
period in time. I mean, I didn't even know until this show that there was this other picture
01:52:07.260
that you guys showed. I didn't see any report of that for whatever reason. And so that shows you
01:52:13.760
that, and also the Brian Kohlberger case, you know, they went back and looked at how many times that
01:52:19.400
phone had pinged around where he did that killing prior to that. So they have to go and look at that
01:52:25.140
period in time, a month or as long as they can, and see if there's anybody pinging, because
01:52:31.380
he may not have had his phone on that time, but the other time he might've. And I think that's
01:52:35.900
very important. And you know, we also have to say it is possible they're doing that, you know,
01:52:40.020
as in Kohlberger, when they did look like Keystone cops and we were all like, oh my God, how can they
01:52:44.480
not have caught anybody? You know, crime that happened mid-November and they made the arrest
01:52:48.380
Christmas week. That's longer than we are right now. You know, it's about six weeks later he got
01:52:55.580
arrested and here we are two and a half weeks. And so they could be doing in this case what they did
01:53:00.660
in Kohlberger, which is maybe they do have a cell phone that they suspect and they're running the
01:53:05.840
numbers to see how many times that cell phone has come by Nancy's and who it might be associated with.
01:53:11.060
And maybe they are waiting on genetic genealogy on DNA that was found inside that. Like that's how
01:53:15.580
they got Kohlberger, you know, but in that case, and we don't know in this case, if they have, in that
01:53:20.660
case, they knew they had something belonging to the murderer in hand, that knife sheath. In Nancy's case,
01:53:27.920
we just don't know. They haven't said that. All they've said is that there's DNA inside the house
01:53:32.560
that doesn't match Nancy and doesn't match somebody they would have expected to find it from, like a
01:53:37.820
maid, et cetera, or Nancy's relatives. So it's, does that mean it's the abductor? No.
01:53:43.600
Yeah. Do you remember one of the things that we mentioned last week, Megan, which was about the 70%
01:53:47.940
rule? And this applies obviously in kidnappings and 70% of kidnappings, if this is indeed a kidnapping,
01:53:54.160
will, there will be someone close to the target, to the hostage, that will have some connectivity.
01:54:03.200
And that happens in the vast majority of cases. And having worked a number of these cases over the
01:54:07.720
last 30 years, I've found that always to prove out. So again, they may be holding back on giving
01:54:13.280
information. And to a certain extent, let's hope so. And it's not the sheriff just being incompetent
01:54:19.060
and spilling his guts every five minutes on contradictory statements. So let's hope that the
01:54:25.540
bureau are holding on to some of that data. They may not necessarily be sharing it with the sheriff.
01:54:30.700
I don't know. But if I was them, I wouldn't be until I've got a few more pieces in the puzzle figured
01:54:36.100
out. And I also think they reportedly want this case and they can't get it because it's up to the sheriff
01:54:41.060
to give it. Go ahead. I also think that they should look at, so one of these other pictures
01:54:45.740
and any videos they find, they, as they go back and they say, okay, this is the first time we see
01:54:50.500
this individual or the first time we see this, this phone ping at this period of time, I would be
01:54:55.720
looking at who was working in that, in that area at that time. Was anybody newly hired? She has a new
01:55:01.940
roof. We talked about, you know, is that when that occurred? Because that's how people, you can kind
01:55:06.860
of start to see a timeline on when somebody started to key in on this house. And that's why I'm still,
01:55:12.840
I'm just not really focused. Your previous guest you had on before us said a comment, and I love it.
01:55:20.100
Kidnappers don't want to take babies and old people because they're really hard to deal with.
01:55:25.600
Babies, I think they could do that and get away with it if it was a very rich family. I've worked a
01:55:29.580
case where somebody, usually it's parental kidnapping where they kidnap their own kid. But with an elderly
01:55:35.400
person who's injured, I just can't, I can't wrap my head around somebody injuring the person that is
01:55:43.120
84 years old in bad health that they're going to try to get money out of. I would see them tying her
01:55:49.040
up and carrying her out before I would see them injuring her. And that's why I'm just, I keep going
01:55:53.940
back to this burglary gone wrong. And if we see that this individual was casing the neighborhood,
01:55:59.600
that leads, I think, more credibility to that. And in which case, again, I would have expected him
01:56:07.240
because the way that Will was just talking about, kind of the stupidity that he showed
01:56:11.060
and the arrogance and the comfortableness, those people, when they get into a situation that they're
01:56:16.180
not familiar with, which is like, oops, I just shot this person or I just hurt them inside the house,
01:56:21.840
they will sit there and panic potentially for 40 minutes or more, uh, before they figure out a way
01:56:28.220
to, to, to move her. I just, and if that's the case, then I just think she's going to be within
01:56:34.560
probably a two hour window, uh, somewhere in that area. And so this is one thing I do want to point
01:56:39.540
out. It's a little off topic, but if anybody saw anything on that day, which I believe was
01:56:46.180
February, the morning of, of, of February 1st, the first, if they saw anything within two hours of
01:56:52.380
that home, that looked like somebody was burying something or they were, uh, moving suspiciously
01:56:57.520
within two hours of Tucson, they should report that because if law enforcement could go there
01:57:03.240
and find DNA of Nancy and DNA of anybody else, then I mean, it's, it's right there. And I think that,
01:57:10.120
um, there's a possibility that somebody saw something two hours away and never even thought about it.
01:57:15.640
And if I was long, that's the messages that this sheriff should be putting out is, uh, that people
01:57:21.040
should be looking that far out. All right. Last but not least, I wanted to touch on this. We've shown
01:57:26.900
now a piece of the today show segment featuring Nancy when Savannah went back home to Tucson for,
01:57:33.880
it was like a homecoming series that they did for all of their anchors. And, um, my executive, uh,
01:57:39.920
news producer, Canadian Debbie, we call her, she's been saying since the beginning, you've got to show
01:57:45.060
the whole thing, like show, show more because it's a very, like very telling, uh, piece of tape that
01:57:51.780
they ran. We've shown the only part that shows Nancy, but I'm going to show you guys what they
01:57:58.920
put on the air involving Savannah leading up to that moment when we included that moment in it.
01:58:03.140
So just look at this. This is a, people ask me where are you from? I'm always proud when I say
01:58:09.300
Tucson, Arizona. I grew up there, went to college there. My mom still lives there. And honestly,
01:58:15.020
a part of me has really never left. I can't believe it. I'm back. This is my alma mater,
01:58:20.320
the university of Arizona. It's just as beautiful and sunny as it ever was. But I want to meet some
01:58:25.300
real students of today. We're all reading magazines with Savannah on the cover. I know just where
01:58:34.420
to go. Not moving your eyes. Where is everybody? Welcome back home, Savannah. There's a marching band
01:58:43.300
suddenly. Dancing sorority members at her old sorority. El Charro is the oldest family-owned Mexican
01:59:00.820
restaurant in America and the perfect place to catch up with mine, my mom, Nancy, and sister Annie.
01:59:06.820
I come here every time I come home to Tucson. I have to come to El Charro. How long has El Charro
01:59:11.900
been here? 103 years. Cheers. Cheers. I love being home. Don't drink the whole thing. But mom, you guys
01:59:19.520
came here in the 70s and you'd been moving all around. What made you want to stay in Tucson and
01:59:24.540
at Roots? It's so wonderful. Just the air, the quality of life is played back and gentle. Yeah, I like to
01:59:32.700
watch the javelina eat my plants. But the best thing about Tucson is coming home and seeing you guys.
01:59:40.100
Should we raise a glass? Prickly pear margarita? Cheers. Cheers. Love you. Love you. From the love
01:59:46.740
of family to the familiar beauty of the scenery, I will always be a daughter of the desert.
01:59:55.160
Okay. So when you watch that, you see that play out, Jonathan, what jumps out at you? What do you think?
02:00:01.640
Well, first of all, that was in 2019. Is that correct? Is that? No, no. That aired in November
02:00:08.140
5th. November 5th. November 5th. Okay. So for some reason, again. Nancy was taken February 1st. Okay.
02:00:12.580
So the date in which that is kind of telling because that is recent, not far away. I think
02:00:20.240
there must have been something. When I looked that up, I saw a date of- Oh, they're always doing that.
02:00:24.480
Right. So they're always doing stuff. So that's, I mean, that would lead more to the possibility that
02:00:30.280
somebody latched onto that and that somebody may have seen that and then, and searched her. I would
02:00:35.900
like to know when that search was, or that they said that was right before she disappeared. I guess
02:00:42.520
what I'm saying is these timelines and when these things occurred- Well, listen, wait, let me just tell
02:00:47.060
you, the Google Trends thing and the Fox News report said that Savannah Guthrie's salary may
02:00:53.660
have been searched, now they changed it to may have been, from Tucson between December 13th and
02:00:58.440
December 20th. So it would have been a month after that.
02:01:01.620
So, you know, I don't know. I look at these different things that occurred and it's hard
02:01:06.300
to put them together, but I, it's always possible that somebody clicked and they saw that and
02:01:13.020
then they started planning from that point forward. So that could be why it took a while for them
02:01:16.800
to get to that point. But I tell you one thing I did notice is how her sister, again, I don't
02:01:22.000
want to bring anything up, and I know the sheriff doesn't like this, but her sister just kind
02:01:27.020
of seems like the sidebar of the conversation. And again, when you, when you have one sister
02:01:32.900
who's famous, one brother, who's a fighter pilot, and then you have a sister who is a
02:01:38.100
poet, who's married to a guy in a band. It's just, I don't know. When I look at the, all
02:01:42.980
these different- And they're, and they're doing the labor's
02:01:45.220
work on- And they're the ones who live the closest to
02:01:47.280
the mom. And maybe the, you know, the ones that aren't the closest, even though they live
02:01:51.180
in proximity. I don't know. I wouldn't rule them out. And those are things that pop out
02:01:57.900
And by the way, so that there's the one search for Savannah Guthrie's salary dating between
02:02:02.420
December 13th and 20th. Then they say between November 30th and December 1st, a Google image
02:02:09.440
search for Nancy's address. So it's not long after that segment. It's not the day of the
02:02:15.300
segment, but the segment then went up on the Today Show's website and has lived there ever
02:02:20.020
since. What jumps out at you, Will, watching that?
02:02:22.220
Well, I think the dates are very important. If Google came back and said that the search
02:02:27.480
was actually foundationed or initiated out of Tucson, that would tell me that Google has
02:02:33.660
a great deal more information about the IP address than it does anything else.
02:02:38.280
And it does say, it does say, may have been searched from Tucson, Savannah Guthrie's salary
02:02:45.340
Oh, and by the way, we also record these cameras that you don't know. You know, there's a lot
02:02:49.860
that Google's doing. I think it's being very clear here that we're able to see.
02:02:53.860
Yeah, through its Nest camera. That's exactly right. The guy in Ring, we played this yesterday.
02:02:57.860
He was like, our cameras don't do that. If you don't pay for this subscription plan,
02:03:01.100
we don't record. There's no extra tape lingering anywhere. But Nest, thankfully for us in this
02:03:06.040
case, but to the surprise of many Nest camera owners, is recording even when you don't think
02:03:11.860
it is. Now, that's an interesting, that's an interesting aspect, isn't it, Megan, that
02:03:16.240
they will actually be recording when you believe it's passive or it's not actually operating.
02:03:22.900
So again, having operated in some darker areas of the cyber world, let's just put it that way,
02:03:29.560
and I probably won't elaborate. Let's just say there's a lot of capability and technology
02:03:33.780
out there that the general public is not going to be aware of, of some of the abilities that some
02:03:39.180
of the big tech companies have. And I would say there was a bit of a reveal in the fact that the
02:03:44.440
search was initiated from the Tucson area, because that's a little too precise for my liking.
02:03:50.920
That's such a good point. Let me tell you what I noticed in that video, having now watched the
02:03:55.640
whole thing. It was done, you know, within two months of the time Nancy Guthrie was abducted,
02:04:01.140
went missing. She said, my mom still lives there at the beginning of the segment. So you didn't even
02:04:07.220
have to watch long to find out where her mom lives. She then said it again and interviewed her own mom,
02:04:13.680
like, what made you want to stay in Tucson all these years? So now again, we've reaffirmed that
02:04:17.480
the mom lives in Tucson. They show the name of the restaurant, El Churro, and she says, whenever I come
02:04:23.680
home, this is where we go. So now you're getting closer to knowing what neighborhood she's in,
02:04:27.520
because no 84-year-old travels 30 miles to go have her dinner. She said this is one of the family
02:04:33.300
favorite restaurants. And so now you're getting closer and closer to where Nancy is. And same
02:04:40.860
thing you just said, Jonathan, about the family dynamic. The sister, she's not even given a speaking
02:04:46.740
line. Like, I'm sure the sister said something. Like, but not only does she not get to speak at all,
02:04:52.880
not one word of hers is aired, but look at the setup piece. It is a marching band for her sister.
02:05:02.180
It is a hero's welcome at the sorority. It is Savannah's face all over the magazines as kids
02:05:10.080
on the campus are, you know, allegedly reading magazines about Savannah Guthrie. And she just
02:05:18.820
It's like, she's all crammed up next to her mom and their sister's over on the other side eating
02:05:26.980
Yes. She's running herd on the conversation. She's driving it because she's the anchor of the
02:05:32.440
show and of the segment. The sister barely has a bit part. I'm just saying it's like,
02:05:37.660
to me, it's relevant for a couple of reasons. What is the sister feeling? It's possible she's
02:05:42.920
feeling total pride and, you know, joy in her sister's success. It's also possible she wasn't
02:05:48.440
and that there's a level of envy since I guarantee you, she was doing the lion's share of all the
02:05:52.680
work with Nancy and Savannah wasn't, you know, Savannah may have been paying for some of those
02:05:56.580
caregivers, but there's, you know, it's different when you're the one who is there. You know, my
02:06:01.200
sister and I just went through this with, with my mom, my sister was, she passed, unfortunately,
02:06:05.560
a couple of years ago, but she died at 58. And, um, my sister was living with my mom. My sister was
02:06:12.060
definitely taking care of my mom physically way more than I was. I was paying for all my mom's
02:06:17.320
expenses, but you know, my sister was doing her part because an 80 some year old lady does need a
02:06:24.620
lot of help, a lot of physical help, and it can be difficult on the caregiving child. So there's that
02:06:29.980
dynamic. But the second thing is it's not a great idea. It is not a great idea with the general
02:06:36.760
population to parade around your hometown, tout what a star you are, how beloved you are, what a,
02:06:47.560
you know, what a celebrity you are as a news person. It can, it's in my view, that can only lead to bad
02:06:54.340
things. It, it can lead to envy by some at home toward you because there are a lot of people who
02:06:59.960
actually are not rooting for you when it see, when they see things like that, it can spark somebody's
02:07:05.080
idea. Unlike I'm going to, I'm going to end that. I want to disrupt that. I don't appreciate that
02:07:12.240
joyful. I'm a celebrity and everybody loves me situation. And I know just the way to bring an end
02:07:17.420
to it. Um, and it just reveals a lot of information about yourself and your family a lot. And I'll just
02:07:23.820
finish it with one other thing. When I was at Fox and I was first like coming up, you know,
02:07:28.980
I was making a name for myself and becoming better known. Bill O'Reilly pulled me aside and said,
02:07:35.440
don't reveal anything about yourself personally. And I was like, what do you mean? You know, like,
02:07:40.800
it's kind of natural. Sometimes you're talking and something comes up, you say something about your,
02:07:44.880
and he was like, never. He's like, if you watch me, I almost never do it because it's dangerous.
02:07:50.860
He was saying like, it can trigger people and there will be some nutcase out there who's writing
02:07:55.500
it all down, ready to use it against you at just the right time. And you know, O'Reilly and I don't
02:08:02.740
really get along now, but he, he, he's a smart guy and he gave me a lot of sage advice. And I feel
02:08:07.320
like that was, that was a piece of very good advice. Your thoughts on it, Will?
02:08:11.180
Solid, solid advice. I work, I work with a number of sort of Hollywood A-listers and various other
02:08:16.780
prominent people. And the one thing I always say to them is keep your personal life personal.
02:08:21.220
You need to live two lives, your celebrity life, which obviously has to be very clearly thought
02:08:25.900
about in terms of what you talk about, where you go for your meals, that sort of thing.
02:08:29.800
It can even be fabricated in terms of this is my favorite little restaurant that I always go to.
02:08:34.640
And you've probably never been there before. And then there's your personal life and keep that
02:08:38.960
information down because that can be used as leverage in various different shapes and forms.
02:08:43.620
So absolutely keep, keep the two lives entirely separate.
02:08:48.040
You know, if people, Megan, if people wanted to see the reality of, I mean, we see social media,
02:08:53.260
right? So we see how the white Karens in the world have like are destroying this country. You would
02:08:58.800
never have expected that, but that craziness didn't just pop up because of social media. I mean,
02:09:03.560
there's craziness in the world that you don't see if you don't put yourself in that environment.
02:09:07.600
And like Will, you know, I've been with celebrities and, uh, and it is amazing what
02:09:14.140
people will do. They'll, you'll be having, they'll be having dinner and we're sitting over
02:09:18.120
there and all of a sudden somebody gets up from a table and walks over and asks for an autograph
02:09:21.940
during dinner. Okay. That's one person. They go back, sit down and they open a floodgate of
02:09:26.100
crazies that now will come up and interrupt dinner for this individual, um, just to get an autograph
02:09:32.500
or a picture. It's so inappropriate that you sit back and you think, how is this, how are these
02:09:37.700
people comfortable doing this? Well, that's that it only gets worse from there. And so there's crazy
02:09:43.160
all in the world. And when you add celebrity into that, uh, then people can fixate and, and say and
02:09:50.500
do absolutely crazy things. I still think though, when we look at the totality of the circumstances
02:09:56.580
and we look at how this individual acted, now that we know that he was around that area before that
02:10:01.860
day. Um, I just, I keep thinking of somebody casing the environment, casing that area. And, uh, it,
02:10:09.520
the behavior is more like a criminal, like somebody who's going into, uh, to, um, burglarize a home
02:10:16.300
than somebody who is going in there to remove an individual. I just, most of the issues I've seen
02:10:23.180
when it comes to kidnapping, they are stalking somebody, not walking up and, and covertly looking
02:10:30.260
at the house with full mask and gloves and everything on, because that could lead to them
02:10:34.800
getting caught. And, uh, when you're trying to kidnap somebody, you want complete anonymity.
02:10:39.180
So I don't know there there's, there's just issues about this kidnapping versus burglary that
02:10:44.860
when you look at, at how many of these people, I mean, how many videos have come out with people
02:10:49.280
just walking up to people's doors? That is some of the creepiest stuff that's out there.
02:10:53.820
How many people are poking around neighborhoods at night? And, um, so, uh, again, the evidence
02:11:00.640
will lead where it needs to go. Let me tell you something right now. You come to my house,
02:11:04.060
it's going to be like starring in an MGM movie. You have no idea how many angles we will have you
02:11:11.020
on camera from. And, uh, and there are many other measures that we've taken beyond. So a face mask is
02:11:16.960
not going to help. Nothing's going to help. A yappy dog is the best security thing. There are many,
02:11:21.400
many layers of protection and you have to, you have to, what were you going to say?
02:11:25.040
Well, no, I was just going to say that, uh, no, I, I understand where, where, um, you're coming from.
02:11:30.160
I, I still believe this, this was an abduction or a kidnapping that it's gone wrong. I don't think
02:11:35.280
there were enough items of value that were removed from the property, even if the, the accident or
02:11:40.940
there was an accident and the death of Nancy occurred through the process. And then there's the removal
02:11:45.540
of the body. Um, ultimately I think for a burglar and I improved, I'm open to be proved wrong,
02:11:52.420
but, uh, it just doesn't fit the profile for me personally, anyway, of it being a burglary.
02:11:57.960
Well, and I have to say like on the burglary front,
02:12:00.740
most 84 year old ladies are not keeping a lot of expensive things in their homes. First of all,
02:12:08.140
they were all raised in a certain era where that wasn't done. You know, I mean, they,
02:12:11.580
I think they tend to be frugal. I know a lot of 84 year olds. I do through my mom.
02:12:14.880
Um, that's not where you go if you want really good loot. You know, I think you go more to like
02:12:20.380
the 40 year old couples or the 50 year olds couples who have made money and they haven't
02:12:25.360
given it all away. You know, they're not living more humbly now that they're elderly. Um, I think
02:12:30.540
most elderly people live somewhat humbly just because they don't want to deal with a bunch
02:12:33.860
of stuff. And most are thinking about end of life and they don't want to pass down a bunch of
02:12:37.000
hassles to their loved ones once they're gone. They've given it away or they've made sure it's not
02:12:42.580
cluttering, you know, that kind of thing. I'll say this in response. And first of all,
02:12:46.480
Will and I looking at this from different directions, that's okay. That's the way
02:12:49.700
investigations work. Yeah, no, I like it. It should be. We got to keep it all open.
02:12:52.900
And you got to continue to look. I mean, a really ferocious investigator says, no,
02:12:57.380
I think this is it. That's okay. As long as you're not letting that guy guide the entire
02:13:01.960
investigation. If he wants to look in that, that's good. If that individual wants,
02:13:05.060
if Will wants to look over there, that's great. You know, but Megan, I'll just say this about,
02:13:09.680
about what your comment was there about 84 year old women. When you are 84 and you as successful
02:13:16.100
as you are and the things you will have acquired, somebody looking at your home and identifying you
02:13:23.920
is going to see a home totally different than an 84 year old woman who, you know, retired when she
02:13:30.100
was 60 from teaching school. Right. So yes, you're correct about that 84 year old woman, but we're not
02:13:35.500
talking. Nancy Guthrie is not that 84 year old woman. She's wealthy and she lives in a wealthy
02:13:41.000
neighborhood and people in those wealthy neighborhoods do keep stuff in their homes.
02:13:45.740
And it could have been, you know, that's true. And we don't, we don't even know necessarily that
02:13:49.980
he knew an 84 year old lived inside. Like we don't, we actually don't know whether he knew who lived in
02:13:55.480
there. He might've thought it was somebody younger as a million dollar home. It's a nice neighborhood.
02:13:59.760
It's set back where you, I can get in and get out without getting seen by anybody. I've never asked,
02:14:05.260
in fact, this would be an interesting question to ask. Are the neighboring houses nicer? Like
02:14:10.840
there might be something to not to, that could be relevant. You know, like did, do the other
02:14:15.560
neighbors houses dwarf Nancy's or does hers, her house dwarf theirs or are they all pretty much the
02:14:21.200
same? Like hers is worth about a million. Was there one worth 5 million, two doors down? That might be
02:14:26.320
kind of relevant to this. I think another good question to ask Megan is also the, the current
02:14:32.580
status of that property, the condition of that property, you know, it was that property well
02:14:36.860
maintained and well kept, you know, the lawns were manicured and the, the, the bushes had been
02:14:41.740
trimmed. A new roof. That's very telling. Or a new roof, for example, good point. Or as an expensive
02:14:47.500
vehicle that's parked outside. Burglars will generally profile and even kidnappers will,
02:14:52.180
they will profile the property by the current state of it and, and what it presents. Does it
02:14:57.780
represent any visible value? Uh, and yes, for a, for an elderly lady, um, like Nancy, she may not
02:15:06.180
demonstrate, she may have a very typical standard vehicle. It may not be very expensive. She may not
02:15:11.740
have spent a lot of money on the property itself, but it's the condition of it. How is it being kept
02:15:16.220
in comparison to the other houses and other residences in the neighborhood? And, you know,
02:15:21.200
living in Arizona, I will tell you this, that the rich communities in Arizona are the darkest
02:15:27.300
communities because they, they, as you see, you can't quite, they, they kind of hide their house
02:15:32.900
with the shrubbery and things like that. So, um, it would be very easy to poke around in those areas.
02:15:38.520
And, you know, when he's standing out there looking around, um, he could be looking for floodlights.
02:15:43.500
He could be listening for dogs and looking for all the things that you have in your, in your house,
02:15:48.380
Megan. And so I think, uh, if he was going to, if he did key in on her, her personally, um, then
02:15:56.480
it would be easier in that neighborhood. Cause most, I've never been there, but most likely from what
02:16:01.540
I've seen in all the, the wealthier neighborhoods is it's, it's really dark because they just don't
02:16:06.800
want the streetlights. They want to live in the, in the desert. Dark, isolated, far back from the road.
02:16:13.500
Let me ask you guys as like security experts, do you leave all the lights on the outside of your
02:16:17.300
house on overnight or do you turn them off? I would generally suggest for a client that they
02:16:22.400
have a passive infrared movement detection light. So, you know, and do you want to set it up in
02:16:27.320
such a way that it's not going to be inconsiderate to neighbors and start shining into their bedroom
02:16:31.140
lights in the middle of the night. If a coyote or a, you know, in a, over here in the UK, a badger
02:16:35.600
walks into, into the field of view. Um, it really does depend. The one thing I would certainly say is
02:16:41.240
that any kind of intermittent light that can shine is always going to be good, um, as a deterrent,
02:16:47.860
uh, to an individual who's going to be wanting to use the concealment of darkness or bushes or
02:16:53.360
otherwise to try and get close to a property. You know, you know, one of the best things,
02:16:57.060
well, first of all, Belgian Malinois is great. I think that they're, they're better than any light,
02:17:01.240
but, um, you know, one of the, one of the simplest things that you can get is a driveway alarm,
02:17:07.740
which they cost like $30. You get a couple of units, you set them out there. They work within
02:17:11.980
usually 300 feet and you have, uh, a little alarm that's inside your, you put inside your home.
02:17:18.120
And it sounds like, you know, when you go into a store and it goes ding dong, when you walk in,
02:17:22.020
well, you can put those around your property and anybody that comes on there, they work,
02:17:26.480
they're waterproof. They work in the dark. Um, it's going to alert when somebody walks up your
02:17:30.800
driveway or your walkway and it doesn't record, but it notifies you if somebody is walking through that,
02:17:36.860
that, that, uh, location. So when I'm in my RV, I have those all around my RV. Anybody comes close
02:17:41.840
to my RV, it's going to ding. So, uh, I think these are, I like, we have an advertiser called
02:17:47.660
simply safe, simply with an eye and they, they have their company. Doesn't just like go off when
02:17:54.480
somebody breaches your home, they get you like outside as you're, as you're like trying to get in,
02:18:00.940
it goes off and somebody starts yelling at you like intruder. The police are on their way. I'm like,
02:18:06.840
this, this is the thing to do. Scare the bejesus out of them before they get in, you know, like
02:18:12.360
it's great once they're in to scare them, but like be much better to be like, we see you,
02:18:17.520
the cameras, the 911 is on its way. Like you're screwed. And then, you know, nine, 99% will run.
02:18:24.160
They, they don't, it's not worth it to them. You know, it's not like the made up stuff we see in
02:18:29.040
Mr. And Mrs. Smith where it's like, you're the target and I'm going to get you no matter what.
02:18:32.800
The only thing I would say is you've got to be able to calibrate these things accurately,
02:18:36.640
because if you do have small animals, whether it be someone's cat or their dog or whatever,
02:18:40.900
that you're not waking up the neighbors every morning at three o'clock, you know?
02:18:45.120
We, we actually have had that in the past. Like there, we've had like new guards who didn't
02:18:50.740
really know the rules. Thanks to us. It was our fault. And like our, our little one's friend would
02:18:56.240
get like dropped off and start walking up to the house and they're like, you know, this kid's like,
02:19:01.720
oh, you also have another great advantage over us over here. And that's the second amendment.
02:19:08.580
You're very fortunate to have that. Yeah. And that's a great thing about Arizona as well is, um.
02:19:14.440
Yeah. But by the way, we're sorry for your, your eighth in line over there and the news of his
02:19:19.760
arrest today, Will. We're not. I'm a royalist, Megan. I'm not. Oh, I mean, he's out. He's not
02:19:27.240
really the royal anymore, right? He's kind of just like the royal light now. He's kind of a royal
02:19:31.560
embarrassment, I think, more than anything else. Well, we could talk about that another time if
02:19:35.300
you wish. Hey, I will say this about that, though, Megan. It's good to see somebody arresting
02:19:40.540
somebody who's even close to power. I have a real problem with the way this never occurs. And so that's,
02:19:46.040
I think, is amazing. And I wish we would see more of that in this, in this country.
02:19:51.560
You know what? And now if the UK could only get going on all the Pakistani rape gangs,
02:19:56.500
that would be terrific. Don't even get me started on that, Megan. Don't even get me started on that
02:20:00.840
one. Andrew, right? Like, oh, okay. Now that we're in the mood to arrest,
02:20:04.520
I got a whole bunch of other people for you to look at. All right, guys. Thanks as always.
02:20:07.960
Thank you. You got it. Thank you, Megan. Thank you, Will.
02:20:10.100
All right. We'll talk soon. Well, and thanks to all of you for listening. Tomorrow on the show,
02:20:14.460
we've got Maureen Callahan here for the full show. We need that, don't we? See you tomorrow.
02:20:22.740
Thanks for listening to The Megyn Kelly Show. No BS, no agenda, and no fear.
02:20:33.440
Martha listens to her favorite band all the time. In the car, gym, even sleeping.
02:20:40.320
So when they finally went on tour, Martha bundled her flight and hotel on Expedia to see them live.
02:20:46.480
She saved so much, she got her seat close enough to actually see and hear them.
02:20:51.480
Sort of. You were made to scream from the front row. We were made to quietly save you more.
02:20:57.380
Expedia. Made to travel. Savings vary and subject to availability.
