rich 1.0 The man who ran the search for Nancy Guthrie is fighting to keep his own office — and a perjury referral is sitting on the state Attorney General's desk. For a defense attorney watching this case, that's not a footnote. That's a gift. It's a legal breakdown with former prosecutor and defense attorney Eric Faddis and retired FBI agent Robin Dreeke. Tony Brueski breaks down the legal damage already done to a case that hasn't even produced a suspect. The sheriff leading the investigation into the disappearance of the 84-year-old mother of Savannah Guthrie testified under oath about his history as an officer; records surfaced that appeared to tell a different story, and his own county sent the matter to state prosecutors. Tony explains exactly how a defense lawyer uses an investigation overseen by someone whose credibility is now in question. And the problems don't stop with him. A front door a reporter could walk right up to. Cadaver-dog searches halted. DNA that pointed at an innocent man. A custody battle between the local department and the FBI over the evidence. Tony walks through which failures get evidence thrown out, which ones simply hand a jury a reason to doubt, and whether — between all of them — someone may already have an escape hatch built into this case. He also gets at the harder question underneath it: what a community is supposed to do when the person running its biggest case is the one under investigation himself. This is the uncomfortable part of any prosecution: the truth doesn't win on its own. It has to survive the people who collected it. Listen now.
