Sheriff's Department Stars in Reality Show Amid Missing Person Case
19 Feb
Summary
- Pima County Sheriff's Department featured in A&E's 'Desert Law'.
- Filming for the reality series concluded last summer.
- The show's production has no connection to the ongoing missing person case.
The Pima County Sheriff's Department has become the unexpected star of a new reality television series, 'Desert Law,' airing on A&E. The first season, filmed last summer, follows various members of the department. Sheriff Chris Nanos, who has faced public scrutiny and criticism regarding the ongoing investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, made the decision not to appear on the show.
Despite the intense media focus on the Guthrie case, production for 'Desert Law' concluded some time ago. Sources indicate that filming ceased well before the current developments and that there are no plans for reshoots or new episodes that would involve the high-profile missing person investigation. With three episodes remaining in the current season, the future of the series beyond that is uncertain, as the department has been fully occupied with the search efforts.
This revelation has sparked considerable public reaction online, with many expressing shock and questioning the department's priorities. The FBI has offered a $100,000 reward for information leading to Nancy Guthrie's recovery or the arrest of those involved.
