On Feb. 13, Luke Daley was detained for several hours by Pima County sheriff\u2019s deputies and was questioned by the FBI in connection with Nancy Guthrie\u2019s disappearance. For the first time since being detained and cleared, Daley is speaking out in an interview with Briana Whitney, a true crime correspondent for Arizona\u2019s Family, saying he had nothing to do with Nancy Guthrie\u2019s disappearance.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not me,\u201d Daley said, referring to the masked person in the FBI-released doorbell camera video. \u201cI don\u2019t see the resemblance of it looking like me.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said he doesn\u2019t know who is involved in Guthrie\u2019s disappearance, and if he did, he would \u201chappily\u201d tell the authorities.<\/p>\n
Daley said that on the night he was detained, he was driving home in his Range Rover when two sheriff\u2019s cars pulled him over and told him to get out of the vehicle, before cuffing him and detaining him for about four to five hours. When he asked what he was being detained for, they didn\u2019t tell him.<\/p>\n
Daley said he just learned that Nancy Guthrie lived nearby and has never met her. He said he knew who she was only because his mom was following the case. Authorities towed his Range Rover for a search, which he ultimately got back. They also took his cellphone for a search, which he still hasn\u2019t gotten back. In the meantime, a SWAT raid was being conducted at his home.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe worst part was my mom not being there,\u201d Daley said, adding that she has health issues. \u201cI\u2019m thinking the worst.\u201d Without a cellphone, he couldn\u2019t get in touch with her but discovered the next day that she had gone to a neighbor\u2019s house.<\/p>\n
Daley has called the ordeal a \u201cnightmare\u201d and feels like he can\u2019t go out in public. He said he just wants Nancy Guthrie to return home safely and for his name to be cleared.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On Feb. 13, Luke Daley was detained for several hours by Pima County sheriff\u2019s deputies and was questioned…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":514786,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[4,450,209537,451,78808,209536,193069,3,211613,66501,452,453],"class_list":["post-522501","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-breaking-news","tag-breaking-news","tag-breakingnews","tag-chris-nanos","tag-headlines","tag-investigators","tag-nancy-guthrie","tag-nbc-nightly-news","tag-news","tag-pima-county-sheriff","tag-savannah-guthrie","tag-top-stories","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/522501","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=522501"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/522501\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/514786"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=522501"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=522501"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=522501"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
