Scantily clad true crime streamer uses Nancy Guthrie’s home for video opportunity as family make emotional visit to memorial
An influencer used Nancy Guthrie’s home as a backdrop for her content just days before the missing 84-year-old’s family visited a memorial at the house.
A streamer going by the name Kiki showed up outside the missing 84-year-old’s home in Tucson on Friday wearing a tight black cropped top and tiny black shorts to pose for pictures at the crime scene. She had a photographer in tow, according to the New York Post.
In one photo, Kiki’s photographer — a bald man with a tattooed head dressed in dark leather pants and a black tank top — can be seen filming the woman as she stands next to the road near Guthrie’s home. A tripod is set up next to the photographer.
Other photos published in the New York Post show the woman standing at the foot of Guthrie’s driveway while her cameraman films.
At one point during Kiki’s stream, someone can be heard calling her “embarrassing.” She replies with a middle finger.
The influencer’s photo op came just three days before Guthrie’s daughters — including TODAY co-anchor Savannah Guthrie — visited a makeshift memorial outside their mother’s home on Monday.
The women, along with Annie Guthrie’s husband, Tommaso Cioni, paid their respects at the memorial. Last week, law enforcement returned control of the house to the Guthrie family as the search for their missing mother enters its second month.
Photos capturing the visit showed the family carrying yellow flowers to place at the memorial and embracing while they observed the various tokens and well-wishes left at the site.
Their tender and vulnerable moment at the memorial was a sobering reminder of the real victims of Guthrie’s disappearance.
The weekend prior to that moment was marked by online bickering between true crime creators about Kiki’s photo shoot at the home.
“Adults talking pay attention. Kiki, once this becomes about me or you, it’s no longer about Nancy, so unless you are helping to find her, respectfully STFU,” content creator Criminal Network, which has been following the case, wrote in a post.
Another true crime content creator known for buzzing around missing persons investigations, JLR Investigates, appears to have driven some of the initial criticism toward Kiki when he shared a photo online of her and her cameraman.
He complained that they were “literally doing a photo shoot in front of Nancy Guthrie’s home” and said when he approached to ask what she was doing, she told him she “doesn’t want to talk.”
Kiki defended herself online, saying that she was taking the photos to use as thumbnails for an upcoming true crime video about the Guthrie case.
