Overview
- Monday’s 100-day milestone followed Sunday’s emotional plea from daughter Savannah Guthrie and a renewed $1 million family reward alongside an FBI reward of up to $100,000.
- The FBI is reviewing DNA recovered from the Tucson home, including hairs processed at a private Florida lab that is sharing results with FBI and partner labs.
- Sheriff Chris Nanos said Friday his team is “closer” to solving the case, and his office says scientific evidence processing and digital-media analysis remain active.
- FBI Director Kash Patel said the bureau was kept out for four days early in the probe. The Pima County Sheriff’s Department disputes that and says the FBI was involved from the start.
- Several leads proved unrelated, including a prehistoric bone found near the area and gloves tied by DNA to a restaurant worker, while doorbell footage still shows a masked person at the door and no arrests have been made.
