Overview
- Agents conducted door-to-door interviews on March 5 asking neighbors about internet disruptions, and at least one Ring camera near the home showed a “not available” error during the overnight hours Guthrie vanished.
- DNA from black gloves found about two miles away was traced to a local restaurant worker who is not part of the case, while labs continue working to deconvolute mixed DNA recovered from the residence with investigative genetic genealogy under consideration.
- Officials reviewed a damaged utility box around the corner from Guthrie’s home, but the sheriff’s office later said there is nothing to indicate it is connected to the case.
- The FBI’s publicly described suspect remains the masked man seen on doorbell video, estimated at 5'9"–5'10" with an average build and carrying a 25‑liter Ozark Trail Hiker Pack backpack sold at Walmart.
- No suspect has been identified or arrested as investigators vet thousands of tips, with rewards including $1 million from the family, $100,000 from the FBI and $102,500 from 88‑CRIME; a neighbor also reported a Jan. 11 sighting of a suspicious man to investigators.
