Pima County Sheriff's Department

weird anagram for a TV station.

That on October 9th, deputies with the Pima County Sheriff's Office were dispatched to a home after Joseph Clark allegedly called and said he had killed his wife.

When they arrived, they found the victim in the garage covered with a blanket.

She appeared to be in her second or third trimester of pregnancy.

Nearly eight months after Today host Savannah Guthrie's elderly mom, Nancy, vanished from her Arizona home, authorities say they're investigating a potential new ransom note.

A Pima County Sheriff's Department rep shared the shocking news on social media, revealing the PCSD FBI Guthrie Task Force was recently made aware of a new possible ransom note related to the Nancy Guthrie investigation.

Investigators are also aware of social media comments regarding the note and are looking further into the information to determine its credibility.

Lawmen did not disclose the contents of the note or publicly confirm whether it is legitimate.

At the time of the hike, Shannon was recovering from the flu and despite the advice of those around her, she decided to push through the pain and discomfort.

Unfortunately, Shannon never made it to Manning Camp and when she failed to return to her parents' home in Tucson, Arizona, she was reported missing to the Pima County Sheriff's Office.

The Pima County Sheriff's Office and search and rescue crews headed out into the Segarro National Monument East in search of Shannon, but they failed to find her.

All they found was a fire ring six miles from the trailhead and a few footprints.

Investigators were never able to confirm whether this fire or footprints belonged to Shannon.

Shannon Joy Schell is described as a white female with brown hair, hazel eyes, standing 4 foot 9 inches tall and weighing approximately 85 pounds.

Shannon was recovering from the flu at the time of her disappearance and also suffers from bronchitis.

Anyone with any information is asked to please contact David Sedlak of the Pima County Sheriff's Office at 520-351-4600 and reference case number 941013016.

[electronic music] If you've stuck it out this far, you're not gonna be disappointed.

This is episode four of John McGrath, fugitive investigative strike team sergeant from the Pima County Sheriff's Department.

Each episode's been great.

Each episode's been packed with stories, and this is no different.

According to the few media reports that have been made about Jacob's disappearance, he and a friend entered the canyon on July 11th, 2020, and shortly after became separated.

The friend tried to look for Jacob, but the mass expanse of the forest made it difficult, so instead he contacted the Pima County Sheriff's Office to officially report his friend missing.

Jacob was believed to be carrying a phone at the time, but it is likely that he did not have a signal in the forest.

The Santa Cruz County Sheriff's Office also joined in on the investigation and together the two forces headed out into the forest to try and find Jacob.

According to this article, a hunter ventured down the canyon on July 15th, 2020, and saw a man who he is 100% sure was Jacob Wang The hunter had a brief interaction with the man at around 9:15 AM that morning and said the man did not appear to be in distress and did not ask for assistance.

Investigators have never confirmed this sighting and it brings about a whole new set of theories.

Unfortunately, Jacob's case has not been entered into NamUs, but it appears that the Santa Cruz and Pima County Sheriff's Offices are continuing to work on his case.

Currently, there are no further plans to search the Madera Canyon and Jacob's family and friends are hopeful that one day they will have answers.

So that is where we're at with this, and the FBI is probably not on the scene.

Another big question, and I want this to be a bitching about the Pima County Sheriff's Office and Sheriff Nanos, but did investigators lose opportunities during those first critical days? And I'll let you answer that, Mike.

Yeah, Bill, just looking at it from my side of the equation, the patrol side, you're doing the investigation side, but as a patrol sergeant going there and having done this, and we've all done this early on in our careers, missing people, lost people, setting up perimeters around crime scenes, it seems like it was done in a haphazard manner.

Maybe in the beginning, no one really saw the dangers of what was going on.

The sender wanted Bitcoin.

Within 24 hours, the Pima County Sheriff's Department called it not credible.

A retired FBI agent who analyzed the message publicly says it matches a scam she was personally targeted by back in April.

Same playbook, same con, different mark.
