Overview
- Anonymous law-enforcement sources, who spoke Thursday to NewsNation and Fox News, said the initial Guthrie scene was handled by detectives with little homicide experience, including a supervisor who had never worked a homicide.
- Fox News also reported that seasoned investigators were sidelined early and reassigned, and county leaders moved to question Sheriff Chris Nanos as a recall effort against him gathers steam.
- Investigators have not named a suspect, and DNA from a glove found near the home matched an unrelated restaurant worker, with other items still undergoing testing at private and federal labs.
- The FBI recovered photos from three cameras on the property but found nothing they plan to release, while previously shared porch footage shows a masked person at the door around the time Guthrie vanished.
- The family and law enforcement have posted rewards totaling more than $1.2 million for tips, and the sheriff has warned the perpetrator could strike again as cadaver dogs remain available but are not currently deployed.
