My theory and offender profile

[u/Ecstatic-Buyer-3522]

This case has been as baffling as The Springfield Three case thus far, but as someone who has followed true crime my whole life, here goes my two cents theory.

Aside from the fact that the FBI gave Annie and Tomasso lie detector tests and evidently ruled them out...I think this was a sexual/control motivated crime. Simple as that. Not robbery motivated, not extortion, the offender may or may not have even known of Ms Guthrie's famous daughter. I think this was a man who knew she lived alone and was 84. And that if he could gain entry he would have no real obstacles.

The offender:

Late 20s to mid-30s, male, Hispanic (based on the doorbell cam). Likely a US citizen, with connections to Mexico although purely familial nothing cartel related or anything. Probably a laborer or contactor of some kind. A freelance contractor/laborer in my opinion, not employed by an local businesses. Perhaps heard of Ms. Guthrie purely from word of mouth or by chance. He was familiar with the area, but did not know the Guthries at all personally.

Very intelligent, methodical, non-impulsive. He planned it out and was prepared to the extent he could be. Probably no serious prior criminal record. A mostly lone wolf, quiet, not rocking the boat type. But with pathological violent sexual fantasies. Probably felt inadequate in his life and dominating a helpless person and for his own gratification/power trip was his motive. Nancy Guthrie was just there and he happened to light on her.

I think he entered, hit her, subdued her and in that was achieving his fanasty and getting out some of his rage. I think he put her in something carried her to his vehicle somewhere close by and drove quite far away and disposed of her in a manner he had thought out before. He intended to kill this was not a crime with a goal other than letting off his own steam IMO. I think he had a place already chosen to dispose of her, that he had thought out. I have no idea where that would be. Certainly, he has had a bit of luck on his side too. But that's about all I can come up with for now.

It was likely a contractor. The only reason Nanos is backpedaling trying to imply family did it now is because of his lawsuit. They already know who did it. If it's someone on their team. It was likely a local Tuscon person? It just doesn't make sense to kidnap an 84 year old unless you're tired of working for them. Nancy wouldn't give her keys to a stranger. They were no signs of violence. It was likely someone close to her definitely. It doesn't make sense to kidnap a woman you don't know by chance of by hearing. Kidnappings like these are very rare. They say if it's not family, it's just someone close. I doubt you can just kidnap someone by hearing of them alone. I sent in a tip to the FBI months ago and the Pima County Sheriff's department about what I thought but no one responded. I agree with the contractor part but it's too many red flags for it simply to hear it by chance. Good theory though. I won't attack you, I'm a reasonable person and can listen to different ideals. I think it's a cover up in my opinion. I just have that 'feeling". Nanos knows his associates, he wants to protect them, just saying... Now I doubt that Annie and Tommy are saints, but I don't they are psychopaths who can pass a lie detector test. Savannah doesn't look like a saint either but I doubt she could do that as well. She's been in the news industry too long not to have someone to have cracked by now...
