FBI Clarifies Nancy Guthrie Case: No New DNA Evidence

About this episode

FBI Clarifies Nancy Guthrie Case: No New DNA Evidence, Search Continues

The FBI has clarified that the DNA samples found in Nancy Guthries home, including hair samples, are not new evidence but rather the result of standard tests requested two months ago. The local Pima County Sheriffs Department had sent the samples to a private lab instead of following the FBIs lead. Despite earlier DNA checks, no matches were found in the CODIS database or due to mixing issues. The case remains an abduction investigation, with the FBI and local authorities continuing to search for suspects. Tips can be submitted to the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI.

On April 21st, the FBI just dropped a clarification on the Nancy Guthrie case folks. The 84-year-old from Tucson, Arizona, vanished back on February 1st, and some reports hyped up new DNA from her home-like hair samples. As a big break. But assistant director Ben Williamson says, nah, this ain't fresh evidence. They requested those tests two months ago using standard tech. Meanwhile, the local Pima County Sheriff's Department sent it to a private lab, instead of following the FBI's lead. Earlier DNA checks either didn't match anything in the code's database, or got messed up for mixing. No game changers there. Family dropped Nancy off at her cattling of foothills home, the night before she went missing, and cops quickly turned the spot into a crime scene. Schilling Nest's camera footage showed an armed figure messing with the device that night, so they're treating this like a possible abduction. The joint effort between the sheriff's office and FBI has uncovered stuff like gloves and more surveillance images, but three months in, still,

no. Suspects named. The search keeps grinding on. If you've got tips, hit up 1-800-call FBI. They're ready to hear it. Stay tuned as this unfolds. I'm Corey with The Story. That's your entertainment and celebrity news today update. AI powered and always trending.
