The sheriff is a democrat that sent DNA evidence to a private lab in Florida instead of the FBI lab at Quantico.
I can only think of one reason for that and it’s sure not to help solve the case.
“I can only think of one reason for that and it’s sure not to help solve the case.”
I can think of at least three.
Pima County is a deep blue area in the midst of a red state. It’s been described as a blueberry in the middle of a bowl of tomato soup. The sheriff is probably anti-Trump and probably hates the Kash Patel directed FBI. He also seems incompetent. Several major mistakes were made at the beginning of this, like not securing the Guthrie house right away. It’s a total evidentiary mess and will pose serious problems at trial if suspects are actually caught and prosecuted.
The poor elderly lady is probably dead and buried, and it’s anyone’s guess who’s responsible.

I’m starting to think the sheriff knows the kidnappers are illegal aliens or fears they maybe so.
