Investigators at the FBI have received new evidence that could crack open the Nancy Guthrie case, according to a new report.
ABC News reported on Thursday, citing "sources familiar with the investigation," that the FBI has sent new evidence to a crime lab for processing to determine whether it came from one or multiple people. Investigators are hopeful that the sample could trace back to Guthrie's abductors, but Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos caveated that it could take up to six months to "untangle" the new sample.
The report added that there are five FBI crime labs around the country working on the Guthrie case.
Guthrie, 84, disappeared from her Tucson, Arizona home on Feb. 1. She is the mother of "Today" co-host Savannah Guthrie.
