""A big part of this is all about messaging" for law enforcement, "and you can't let your frustration come out during individual interviews," Chell said Wednesday on Newsmax's "National Report." He added that he did not understand why the department was conducting solo interviews rather than joint briefings with federal partners. "It's almost to the point where he's trying to help himself," Chell said of the sheriff's communication strategy."
"Chell's remarks came after law enforcement confirmed DNA recovered from a glove found near Guthrie's home did not match any profiles in the FBI's national Combined DNA Index System, known as CODIS. Chell said discussing DNA publicly could alert those responsible. "I don't know for the life of me why we're discussing DNA in an open airway," because "you know who's listening? The bad guy or bad guys are listening," he said."
Retired NYPD Chief John Chell criticized the sheriff's solo televised interviews and communication strategy, urging joint briefings with federal partners and more disciplined presentation. Investigators reported Nancy Guthrie missing after an apparent abduction from her Pima County home and launched a large-scale search involving local and federal authorities. DNA from a glove near the home did not match profiles in the FBI's CODIS database. Chell warned that discussing DNA details publicly could alert suspects. Investigators believe Guthrie was taken and shared surveillance images of a masked suspect carrying a firearm and a backpack.
