Former FBI assistant director questions whether Nancy Guthrie case is ‘kidnapping’ | 8 Feb 2026 | Former FBI Assistant Director Chris Swecker questioned whether Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance is truly a kidnapping during an appearance on The Big Weekend Show reacting to a recent video released by Savannah Guthrie. “I’m very skeptical of this,” Swecker said. “Is this really a kidnapping? Does somebody really have her, and is she really alive?” Swecker pointed to the lack of verified proof of life, saying, “If this was a kidnapping, it would be a very simple matter to authenticate and provide proof of life,” adding that such proof has not been “credibly authenticated at this point.” Swecker emphasized investigators must allow for other possibilities, saying, “You have to allow for the possibility that this was something more or something other than a kidnapping,” while acknowledging the family’s understandable hope as the investigation continues. [Yup. The oddities on this one are piled sky-high. It’s a very poorly executed psy-op, so we stop talking about the Epstein files, the eye-popping fraud in Minnesota, and the push for the SAVE Act. Do they actually think we’re distracted by this lunacy?]
