Megyn Kelly claims the neighbors of Annie Guthrie and her husband are being questioned

Banfield stayed true to her reporting during a podcast appearance on February 12.

‘Nothing has changed. Nothing has changed,” she told host Dan Abrams of Cioni’s status as “prime suspect.”

The former NBC News correspondent believes she has struck a nerve with her reporting and that she is “on target.”

“The people at the Sheriff’s Department are worried about retaliation because of the leak. And I thought to myself, ‘If it wasn’t true, there wouldn’t be a concern,’ you know? And on the third day he said, ‘What I can tell you is, if they shoot at you, you’re on target,'” Banfield said.

Following the former CNN anchor’s initial report that Cioni was a suspect, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos confirmed that it was he who dropped Nancy off at her home in the hours before she was taken and that he was the last person to see her.

The bumbling police officer later retracted the claim, saying it was just a “relative” driving Nancy home.
