Investigators have recovered DNA from Nancy Guthrie‘s property that does not belong to her or anyone known to be in close contact with her, authorities said.
‘DNA other than Nancy Guthrie’s and those in close contact to her has been collected from the property,’ the sheriff’s department said, adding that investigators are working to identify who it belongs to and are not disclosing where it was found.
Investigators found several gloves, with the closest located roughly two miles away from Guthrie’s home.
‘Reports that a glove was found inside the residence or on the property are inaccurate,’ the sheriff’s department added.
Officials said that the evidence requires forensic analysis and will be sent to the same out-of-state lab that has been utilized since the beginning of the investigation.
The decision was discussed with and agreed upon by local FBI leadership, according to officials.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos told ABC News that usuing the DNA they have from the family and household help they will now ‘go through and try to eliminate people.’
Nanos added that he is hopeful that investigators are making progress to finding Guthrie.
