FBI Director Kash Patel blasted the Arizona sheriff leading the fruitless investigation into Nancy Guthrie’s kidnapping for bungling DNA evidence and shutting the federal agency out of the high-profile probe. Patel called out embattled Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos for sidelining the FBI after the 84-year-old vanished from her Tucson home, claiming he waved off a bevy of federal agents and snubbed an offer to rush DNA to Quantico – blunders the bureau boss said cost critical time early in the investigation. “For four days we were kept out of the investigation,” Patel told Fox News’ Sean Hannity on “Hang Out with Sean Hannity,” adding how the FBI raced to assist in a case under state and local jurisdiction.
