Episode Details

Multiple FBI sources say the bureau wants control of the Nancy Guthrie investigation. The sheriff's own deputy union called it an ego case. Investigators on the ground told reporters they don't know who's in charge. And legally, the FBI can't take over without the Guthrie family's formal request.

Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins True Crime Today to explain how jurisdiction works in a case like this — what the family can actually do, what it changes operationally, and why the current power structure may be working against finding Nancy. Coffindaffer addresses the public split between FBI sources calling evidence handling decisions "dumb" and "insane" and Nanos insisting everything is running smoothly.

The conversation covers the A&E series timing, what it means when a deputy union breaks ranks publicly, and whether three weeks of command ambiguity has given whoever took Nancy a window that shouldn't exist.
