Sheriff's FBI Boast Surfaces Amid Kidnapping Probe

Sheriff Chris Nanos, currently working with the FBI to find Nancy Guthrie, 84, who was abducted eight days ago, is facing criticism.

Ten years ago, Nanos was recorded in a TV interview expressing disdain for an FBI investigation into his department, stating, "If they're having problems doing criminal investigations please call us because we have real policemen here."

Despite now working closely with the Feds on the Guthrie kidnapping, Nanos's past comments have drawn renewed attention. The investigation into Nancy Guthrie's disappearance, which has garnered international interest, has yet to identify any suspects.
