DNA expert and genetic genealogist CeCe Moore has suggested that investigators may return to the Guthrie home near Tucson, Arizona, where Nancy Guthrie disappeared on February 1. Moore speculates that there is still some DNA left behind, particularly in the case of a bite flashlight used by a masked man seen in doorbell-camera footage from the house. Despite this, Moore expressed confidence in the crime scene investigators, noting that their DNA may still prove elusive due to its invisible nature.
