- Supervisors said Friday they will seek to vacate the sheriff’s office by Tuesday if Chris Nanos does not resign, citing a claim he lied under oath about past discipline in El Paso.
- CBS News reported personnel records showing Nanos was suspended several times for issues including unnecessary force and tardiness, while his attorney said he misunderstood a deposition question and later alerted counsel.
- Nanos told Fox News on Friday that investigators are closer to solving the case and called recent developments “really great,” though he did not provide details.
- A private lab in Florida sent a hair sample to the FBI late last month for advanced testing that could enable forensic genetic genealogy, which uses DNA to find relatives and can point to an unknown suspect if the profile is high quality.
- Neighbors placed a Mother’s Day sign outside Guthrie’s home urging the abductor to return her, and supporters are offering more than $1.2 million for tips that resolve the case.
