The FBI released new details on Sunday about the black glove recovered a couple of miles from Nancy Guthrie's home.
On February 13, investigators recovered a black glove that appeared to match the ones worn by Guthrie's suspected abductor. The FBI received a preliminary DNA profile from that glove on Sunday, MS NOW investigative reporter Marc Santia told host Alex Witt on "Alex Witt Reports." The agency is awaiting further test results, but is considering the glove to be a "promising lead," Santia said.
"Investigators, we're told, havecollected approximately 16gloves all across the area, allacross Tucson, and some near thehouse," Santia said. "Now, most of the gloves,we're told, were the searchers'gloves, law enforcement glovesthey discarded in various areaswhen they searched the vicinity.The one that has the DNAprofile that was recoveredabout two miles away, we'retold, is different, and itappears to match the gloves ofthe subject in the surveillancevideo."
Guthrie, 84, disappeared more than two weeks ago from her home in Tucson, Arizona. Multiple ransom notes have been delivered to investigators and to entertainment news outlet TMZ. However, details about the alleged abductor have been hard to come by.
If the glove returns DNA that matches Guthrie or DNA collected at her home, Santia said law enforcement would begin to see the glove as evidence rather than a lead.
