Summary
Four months after Nancy Guthrie vanished from her Tucson home, investigators are still pursuing at least two DNA samples and have publicly identified no suspects.
The evidence includes a mixed sample that Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said is difficult to untangle and a hair sample sent from a private Florida lab to the FBI last month.
The FBI is also bringing in new technology after already using a Bluetooth signal detector and recovering surveillance video from a missing Nest doorbell camera.
A $6 million ransom demand followed Guthrie's Feb. 1 disappearance, and authorities are now offering more than $1.2 million for information that helps solve the abduction.
Patty Morin, whose daughter Rachel's killer was arrested 10 months after her 2023 murder, urged Guthrie's family to stay patient, saying DNA results alone can take up to a year.
