Overview
- The department updated Chris Nanos’ online résumé to show El Paso Police Department service from 1976 to 1982 and a promotion to captain in 2007.
- The Arizona Republic reported that Nanos resigned from El Paso PD in 1982 in lieu of termination and cited internal records showing 37 days of suspensions and multiple disciplinary allegations.
- Pima County officials described the date discrepancies as administrative mistakes not intended to mislead and made the corrected résumé publicly available.
- Nanos pushed back on the Republic’s inquiry, calling it a “hit piece” in an email published by the outlet.
- Nanos continues to lead the open investigation into Nancy Guthrie’s Feb. 1 disappearance with FBI assistance and reward offers, and he has denied reports that he withheld evidence from federal agents.
