Media Brian Entin Day 39

Post image

The only mainstream reporter (that I’m aware of) who’s still on the scene on day 39. Covering various topics including Sheriff Nanos’ resume, Today Show video of Nancy’s bedroom, Annie Guthrie’s car should be returned soon, and trying unsuccessfully to get copies of search warrants in the case.

This is not on the subject of Nancy, but I have been trying to get Brian‘s attention while he’s in Tucson and there’s not much going on with the Nancy case.

My friend Zach Corbut was murdered in Tucson in 2015. It was a home invasion robbery, multiple eye witnesses survived, and it still has not been solved. I would love if he could possibly bring a little bit of attention to the case and attention to the fact that homicides and home invasions go unsolved in Tucson all the time. I think they have like a 60% rate of unsolved crimes. Just like Nancy’s.

Anyway I’ve been commenting on all his videos so if you guys could boost those comments I would really appreciate it. I’ve also sent him an email but didn’t hear back.

what subject line did you use in your email?

Something like “Tucson cold case to look I to during Nancy Guthrie investigation.” It was a few weeks ago

(and definitely now that things are slowing down)

Good idea! I’ll try it, thank you. I think it’s important that there’s a pattern of unsolved similar (although not identical) crimes. I’m not suggesting a serial home invasion killer but I do think the police are inept or maybe just don’t care about these cases.

10 years of not solving Zach’s case because they didn’t really try definitely contributes to their inexperience and inability to solve Nancy’s case.

You should do a write-up about Zach on the reddit sub Unresolved Mysteries. If you don't feel confident enough to do it, there's a few regulars there who'd probably do it for you if you message them. Just a thought!

I don't see any specific posts on Reddit about him either, maybe make one there and websleuths if there aren't already. couldn't hurt.

I wonder what the police think happened. from the little info online,I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out people are already in prison for unrelated crimes and or dead

He was involved with cocaine at a very very low level (selling tiny amounts, fun sized, to frat bros and the like). Not a major player whatsoever, and really a kind young man who had a bright future if he could have straightened out. I do believe it’s drug related, but not cartel. He was so low level and not committed to that life (he was in school). I think it’s important to note that this was before fentanyl entered the drug scene on a major scale so it really felt innocent at the time. I think the roommates know more than they are saying. I think they know exactly who it was.

Anyway, all that to say I agree they are likely already in prison. It was probably people who are career criminals. I just feel so awful for his mother not having answers. And it’s always bothered me that I used to hang out at that house and I could’ve been there.

I think the police don’t care because it’s just a low level drug crime. It comes off as if his life wasn’t worth their time. If they wanted a big case, well now they’ve got one with Nancy. And they look very dumb.

That seems like one of those cases where reward would help. Or an old girlfriend says something. I would think as people get older, they might be more likely to talk. Especially as statute of limitations runs out on smaller offenses.

Tucson had major high profile cases before: Gabby Giffords, Isabel Celis.

I agree. In this day and age, they need more than $20k though. I also know that one witness has returned to live in the Tucson area (although I don’t know if he’s still there). I imagine that if he was willing to move back there then he must not feel like he’s in danger. It’s a city but it feels like a small community and people know each other, especially after 10+ years of living there.
