Law Enforcement & Forensics

DNA from the first roadside black glove recovered near Nancy Guthrie’s home produced no match in the FBI’s CODIS database, and mixed DNA from inside the house has so far yielded only a partial STR profile insufficient for CODIS searching, though experts note SNP‑based genetic genealogy or other uses of partial profiles remain possible. Volunteers conducting a new field search found a second black glove as investigators—who have confirmed Guthrie’s blood at the scene and released Nest doorbell footage of a masked, armed subject—continue forensic work, canvassing, and review of multiple ransom‑style messages with no named suspect identified.
