No DNA match in database from gloves found during Nancy Guthrie investigation, officials say
A DNA profile recovered from gloves found during the investigation into the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie in Arizona that was submitted to a national database maintained by the FBI didn’t come back with any matches, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department said Tuesday.
The profile was submitted to the database known as CoDIS, or Combined DNA Index System, Tuesday morning, the sheriff’s department said.
The DNA profile of an unknown male was recovered from gloves that investigators found about 2 miles from Guthrie’s home, according to the FBI. The glove appeared to match the ones seen on the suspect in Guthrie’s Nest doorbell camera video.
The DNA database could have provided a match if the individual had a previous arrest for certain crimes and supplied a DNA sample that put him into the system.
The gloves were found in a field near a roadside, the FBI said. It was one of 16 gloves found in various areas during the search, but most of them were determined to belong to investigators who had discarded them, the FBI said.
