“We at least know she was still alive,” Clement said, based on an analysis of blood stains on the porch. Round droplets were also reported to be concentrated near the front door, and the trail leading to her driveway was thinning.

“She must have inhaled the blood and then coughed it up, with her face very close to the ground, and I don’t believe that would have happened if there were two people holding her,” Clement told Fox News Digital.

Jim Clement’s Lone Kidnapper Theory

Clement previously said that blood stains found in Nancy’s home may mean there was only one kidnapper on the night 84-year-old Nancy was kidnapped. NewsNation reporter Brian Entin discusses the case podcast On April 22, Clement speculated that if there were two people at the scene, they might have “complete control over her.”

“(They) would take her outside and not lose that control,” he explained. “But here she is apparently coughing up blood on the ground.”

Clement also noted that so far there is no significant evidence to suggest there is more than one suspect.

“If there were three different patterns of shoe prints in the bloodstains … that would tell me something,” he added. “I didn’t see it. I’m not aware of the evidence.”
