Properly…
The glove discovered close to Nancy Guthrie‘s dwelling have lastly been examined and, uh, the outcomes aren’t what anyone wished to listen to.
As Perezcious readers know, Nancy went lacking over two weeks in the past. There’s been a large search to seek out her and/or any clues to who might have taken her, which resulted in many gloves being collected within the Tucson space. We’re speaking black latex gloves that appeared to match those the alleged kidnapper wore in surveillance footage.
The FBI already mentioned that most of the gloves found doubtless don’t have anything to do with the case. Nonetheless, there was one discovered two miles away that they appeared fascinated by (not the one photographed by the New York Submitper TMZ). Earlier this week, the FBI mentioned they had been simply ready for the glove to return from the personal Florida lab the Pima County Sheriff’s Division has chosen to make use of (considerably controversially), after which the DNA profile could be entered into CODIS, which holds nearly 27 million DNA profiles.
Sadly, check outcomes returned on Tuesday — and it’s not what we wished. CODIS returned nothing! The Pima County Sheriff’s Division introduced in an announcement on X (Twitter):
“DNA proof from gloves discovered roughly 2 miles from Nancy Guthrie’s residence was submitted to CODIS & produced no matches. There’s extra DNA proof that was discovered on the residence that can also be being analyzed.”
They adopted up with:
“The DNA that was submitted to CODIS was from the set of gloves discovered 2 miles away. It didn’t set off a match in CODIS & didn’t match DNA discovered on the property. The DNA discovered on the property is being analyzed & additional testing must be performed as a part of the investigation.”
Hmm.
So, there’s nonetheless hope. The gloves amounted to nothing, and admittedly, that was at all times a little bit of an extended shot, in line with many specialists. However the DNA discovered inside the house — that presently doesn’t match any of Nancy’s shut relations and recognized confidants — might nonetheless flip up outcomes. Fingers crossed it does. That will be a MAJOR lead!
In accordance with TMZ intel, the entire course of has slowed down because of the Sheriff insisting on utilizing the Florida lab reasonably than FBI amenities. Why does this matter? Properly, in the case of CODIS, per federal legislation, DNA can’t be submitted until it has been examined within the state the place it was discovered. Meaning the DNA must be absolutely processed in Florida after which despatched again to Arizona, the place it was discovered, for extra testing. With a case like this, each minute counts, in order that’s disappointing.
In accordance with NewsNation‘s Libbey Deanthe glove DNA will now “endure genealogical testing.” So, who is aware of, possibly they may discover one thing?
As suspected – they may use investigative genetic family tree in Nancy Guthrie investigation.
That is what helped catch Kohberger. https://t.co/TOvYIba4xC— Brian Entin (@BrianEntin) February 17, 2026
