As the investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie enters its second month, a former FBI special agent has rejected the theory that it was a robbery gone wrong.
Speaking with Parade, former FBI agent Greg Rogers said, “I have never thought this was a robbery gone wrong,” explaining that if this was intended to be a robbery, there were “too many opportunities to have hit the house when nobody was home.”
