"textContent": "\n\n\nThe hunt for Nancy Guthrie has suffered a major setback - more than 18 days after she disappeared.\n\nA glove, found two miles from 84-year-old Nancy's Tuscon, Arizona, home, failed to match DNA found within her home.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nPima County Sheriff Chris Nanos offered no new leads as police failed to make a match in a national crime database.\n\nThe glove, found on Sunday, was thought to be the best piece of evidence in the ongoing search for breakfast show host Savannah Guthrie's mother.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nTRENDING\n\nStories\n\nVideos\n\nYour Say\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nIt appeared to visually match the one worn by a masked suspect on released Ring doorbell footage.\n\nHowever, police said it had found additional DNA evidence which had not yet been analysed.\n\nThis marks the third week of the hunt, with no arrests or suspects named.\n\nBut a DNA expert has revealed her \"biggest question\" hanging over the case on its 18th day.\n\nCeCe Moore said the glove was unlikely to identify a suspect, adding that it was too far from the crime scene.\n\nShe said: \"My biggest question is, have they found DNA from an unknown male inside that house?\"\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nThe FBI has confirmed they are now using investigative genetic genealogy (IGG) to search for suspects.\n\nThe forensic technique uses public genealogy databases to find potential relatives when traditional law enforcement databases produce no results.\n\nMrs Moore said \"it is just a matter of time now\" until a suspect is found using IGG.\n\nAuthorities have said they also found 16 gloves scattered near Nancy's home, most of which were found to belong to investigators on the scene.\n\n### LATEST US NEWS\n\n\n\n\n * Man SHOOTS himself as three detained following disappearance of Nancy Guthrie\n * Nancy Guthrie's ransom deadline passes as heartbroken daughter Savannah reaches 'hour of desperation'\n * FBI release images of masked person at the home of Nancy Guthrie of morning of her disappearance\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nThe sheriff said 400 investigators are continuing to analyse over 40,000 tips.\n\nAuthorities have also cleared the Guthrie family, naming them as victims of the case.\n\nNancy's son-in-law Tommaso Cioni faced unfounded online speculation that he was involved in the case.\n\nDelivery driver Carlos Palazeulos was apprehended in Rio Rico, Arizona, around 60 miles from Nancy's Tuscon home in connection with the case, but was released without charge after several hours.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nAnswering questions from the press, he said he was not familiar with the case and he was only read his rights two hours after he was held.\n\nMr Nanos has dispelled claims the case has gone cold.\n\nHe said: \"As long as we have the ability to chase a lead, it’s not cold.\n\n\"We're not going to give up. We're going to find Nancy, and we're going to find out who did this.\"\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards:The GB News Editorial Charter **",
