Investigators recover DNA from Nancy Guthrie’s property that does not belong to anyone ‘close’ to her

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.
