Where did the couple find the bloody black gloves?
Garcia reported that the couple found the glove a mile from Nancy’s home at 10 p.m. on February 11.
The couple further told the news channel that they were driving nearby as part of a search party when they spotted the gloves under their car’s flashlight. They said another pair of gloves was found about 10 feet away from the first.
Garcia said the couple did not touch any gloves and called the FBI tip line and the Pima County Sheriff’s Department.
However, after receiving no satisfactory responses from either department, the couple then called 911, who performed due process and asked them the required questions.
In the video, Garcia shared a photo of the bloody gloves the couple found.

DNA testing and forensic clues take center stage
In recent days, law enforcement confirmed that DNA from gloves recovered about two miles from Guthrie’s residence was analyzed using the FBI’s Comprehensive DNA Index System (CODIS).
The Tucson couple questioned whether the gloves tested by CODIS were the same gloves they found on February 11. So far, the results have not matched in the system, according to authorities.
However, the Sheriff’s Department told News 4 they were unable to confirm whether the gloves found by the Tucson couple were part of the evidence. They mentioned that law enforcement had collected multiple pairs of gloves from the area.
News 4 has not received any updates or confirmation from the FBI.
