Nancy Guthrie's kidnapper may have made a series of mistakes that could ultimately reveal his identity, a former FBI profiler has claimed, as the search for the 84-year-old Arizona woman entered another month this week. The case, which has gripped the US since her reported abduction from home, is now being re-examined through fresh forensic analysis of blood found at the scene.
Guthrie, the mother of US television journalist Savannah Guthrie, was taken from her Arizona home months ago by a masked man armed with a gun, according to investigators. Police released surveillance footage showing the suspect outside her property and appealed for public help. Since then, the investigation has expanded to include thousands of tips, extensive video trawls and continuing DNA tests, but there has been no public confirmation of a breakthrough.
