The man who was detained and then released after a SWAT raid on his Arizona home has denied having anything to do with the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie in his first interview since the incident.
Luke Daley, 37, was held Feb. 13 but was quickly cut loose after questioning — and insists cops had the wrong man.
“It’s not me,” he told “True Crime Arizona” host Briana Whitney in an interview released Monday. “I have nothing to do with this case.”
Daley’s 77-year-old mother was also questioned as part of the cops’ probe.
Speculation has swirled online that Daley — who has a felony record for numerous drug and weapons charges from as recently as 2022 — was the man seen wearing a mask and breaking into Nancy’s home in security footage from the night she disappeared on Feb. 1.
But Daley said he didn’t see the resemblance — and urged people not to give into the “hive mind” furor of amateur online detectives.
“I, like everyone else, just want Nancy to come home and be safe,” he said.
“But that being said, I have nothing to do with this case,” he said, adding that he didn’t know who was involved and would tell investigators if he did.
