In a bizarre turn of events, a trio of YouTubers has found themselves in hot water after allegedly causing a ruckus near the empty home of missing person Nancy Guthrie in Arizona. Among them, 54-year-old Alexander Zabel Jr. reportedly set up a “pee tent” and was seen dumping urine in the neighborhood, raising eyebrows and concerns from local authorities.
According to court documents obtained by KOLD, Zabel, known for his channel CriminalNetwork, pitched his tent on a road close to Guthrie’s residence in the Catalina Foothills on Monday. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos revealed that deputies had been monitoring the situation and were prepared to apprehend Zabel after receiving reports of his questionable activities.
Zabel wasn’t alone in this escapade. He was joined by 34-year-old Troy Lewis “DAA Juice” Bradshaw and 46-year-old Damian Todd Enderle, who runs the YouTube channel 857 Tucson. All three men face charges of public nuisance as they reportedly attempted to capitalize on the ongoing mystery surrounding Guthrie’s disappearance, which has now entered its fifth month.
Court documents describe Zabel’s actions as “offensive,” stating that his makeshift outdoor restroom disrupted the community’s quality of life. While Zabel and Bradshaw were taken into custody at the Pima County Adult Detention Complex, Enderle was cited and released at the scene.
The chaos escalated during a livestream where Bradshaw’s arrest was documented in real-time. Enderle, who was filming, expressed frustration over what he perceived as targeted harassment by law enforcement. “They have officially arrested DAA JUICE,” he announced, urging viewers to support them legally.
Authorities have repeatedly warned social media influencers against trespassing in the neighborhood, as they investigate Guthrie’s mysterious case. Zabel has been charged with obstruction of a highway and public nuisance, while Bradshaw faces similar allegations.
Despite their legal troubles, the trio’s followers quickly rallied to post bail, with Zabel’s bond set at $453 and Bradshaw’s at $255. As the situation unfolds, questions remain about the lengths some will go to for online fame and the impact on the community.
With Nancy Guthrie still missing and the investigation ongoing, what will happen next in this unfolding 𝒹𝓇𝒶𝓂𝒶?
