Gloves that were recovered near Nancy Guthrie’s home in Tucson, Arizona, have produced no DNA results, the Pima County Sheriff’s Office announced on Tuesday as the investigation drags on further without any major breakthroughs.
Investigators are currently analyzing more evidence found at the missing woman’s house.
“DNA evidence from gloves found approximately 2 miles from Nancy Guthrie’s residence was submitted to CODIS & produced no matches,” the local sheriff’s office posted on X, referencing the FBI’s national criminal database. “There is additional DNA evidence that was found at the residence that is also being analyzed.”
“Further testing needs to be done as part of the investigation,” it added in a subsequent post while restating much of the same information.
On Sunday, the FBI said it was awaiting DNA results from the recovered gloves. The bureau disclosed they were distinct from other gloves found near the scene of the alleged abduction.
The FBI noted the gloves appeared to match the description of those worn by a male suspect, who was recorded in doorbell camera footage outside Guthrie’s residence. The suspect covered the Ring camera with his gloved hand at one point.
Guthrie has been missing since the start of February. She was last seen at her home on Jan. 31.
The Pima County Sheriff’s Office has released multiple detained suspects and made no arrests as the search for Guthrie continues into its third week.
The FBI is offering a $100,000 reward for any information that leads to the recovery of Guthrie or to the arrest and conviction of those involved in her disappearance.
The case has caught the attention of the nation and the Trump administration, as the missing woman is the 84-year-old mother of Today co-host Savannah Guthrie. The famous journalist has pleaded multiple times with the alleged kidnapper to release her elderly mother.
NANCY GUTHRIE’S FAMILY CLEARED IN KIDNAPPING CASE, WITH SHERIFF ‘BEGGING’ MEDIA TO SHOW COMPASSION
Authorities cleared members of the Guthrie family as suspects in the missing persons case on Monday. Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said the relatives were “nothing but cooperative and gracious” in the investigation and that they were the “victims.”
“To suggest otherwise is not only wrong, it is cruel. The Guthrie family are victims plain and simple,” Nanos said before telling reporters to leave the family alone. “Please, I’m begging you, the media, to honor your profession and report with some sense of compassion and professionalism.”
