A body language expert shares insights on the subject of masking at: Nancy GuthrieThe house is full of talk about my son-in-law Tommaso Scioni and former band members, Dominic Evans.
Dr. Lillian Glass, author of “The Body Language of Liars” and “The Body Language Advantage,” analyzed footage of masked subjects in the 84-year-old’s home. The FBI released the video days ago as investigators hunted Guthrie. She was reported missing on February 1, and authorities believe the octogenarian was taken from her home the night before.
The suspect has not been officially named, although FBI Director Kash Patel has hinted that there is interest. However, there has been a lot of speculation on social media about Cione and Evans. The former was reportedly the last person to see Guthrie before he was taken away, as he walked her home after dinner with his wife, Guthrie’s daughter Anne. Evans was drawn into the conversation as interest in Sione’s personal life grew and accusations were made about his bandmates’ criminal pasts.
This discussion intensified once footage of the subject was released to the public, and Dr. Glass shared her thoughts.
Dr. Glass on the Masked Man: Tommaso Scioni or Dominic Evans?
Sharing a photo of a masked figure and a photo of Sioney band Early Black, Dr. Glass wrote: “What struck me most was the slow and deliberate gait of the perpetrator, as if he had planned this ordeal. He moved slowly, unlike most burglars who usually move very quickly because they want to break in quickly and escape quickly.”
She added, “That’s why you often see more jerky, adrenaline-filled moves. And this was the opposite because he was very cautious with his steps.”
Dr. Glass noted that the masked subject’s eyes bore some resemblance to Sione’s. “The eyes are interesting because one of the eyelids covers more skin than the other. Coincidentally, Tommaso Sionis’s eyes are similar in that way.” Of Evans, Glass said, “The same goes for the eyes of the gentleman standing to the left of Tommaso in the photo, who also has the same eye pattern.”
She shared a photo of Sione, with Evans on the left and Walter Gonsalves on the right. The body language expert also said that both men have “arched brows,” but Cione “shows more of her dark lashes.”
Glass also noted that “the shape of the baklava shows that the perpetrator’s nose was broad and flat at the base.” She further spoke of the possibility that the masked person had facial hair – something that has been suggested by many people online trying to find a physical resemblance to Sione.
“Also, the base of the balaclava is curved. Most balaclavas don’t have this curve and outline the chin as they go straight up the neck, unless there’s a beard underneath. Tommaso had a beard,” Glass added. Speaking about the beard allegedly also visible in the video, Glass said: “A thick dark beard is also visible in the upper area of ​​the mouth. Sione also has a dark beard. The man standing to the left of Tommaso in the photo has a sparse beard, while Tommaso has a thick beard. Tommaso also has a thick beard in the middle, while the other man has no hair growth in that area.”
She also compared the masked subject’s anatomy to that of Sione and Evans. “The perpetrator in the video is in good physical shape and appears to have a flat stomach and muscular thighs. Judging from Tommasos’s photo and the other man’s photo, they also have a flat stomach and long arms and appear to be in good shape like the perpetrator,” Glass wrote.
She concluded her message by saying she was not “accusing” Sione or Evans of being the perpetrators. However, according to her expert opinion, there are “some similarities” to the masking theme, which makes people “raise questions.”
Glass also argued in the post that the subject’s movements indicated they were “familiar with the details of the home” and “may have known Nancy.” Amid the ongoing search, many online have questioned whether Guthrie’s abduction was an inside job.
Authorities have so far provided no evidence to support this hypothesis. However, one of Guthrie’s neighbors also hinted that the masked subject could at least be local if Guthrie didn’t know better.
The man was spotted lowering his head as he approached the door, and Fox News’ Michael Ruiz shared another explanation offered. “One of Nancy Guthrie’s neighbors just came up with an alternative explanation for why the man seen on her doorbell camera lowered his head as he approached her front door,” he wrote when sharing the video.
“Although it’s not rattlesnake season, people tend to use flashlights and look down when walking at night to avoid accidentally stepping on a rattlesnake,” the reporter added.
