The FBI released the image Tuesday morning, showing a person wearing a mask and gloves, captured on a Nest surveillance camera outside of Guthrie’s Catalina Foothills home.
The FBI says: “Over the last eight days, the FBI and Pima County Sheriff’s Department have been working closely with our private sector partners to continue to recover any images or video footage from Nancy Guthrie’s home that may have been lost, corrupted, or inaccessible due to a variety of factors – including the removal of recording devices. The video was recovered from residual data located in backend systems.”
No additional details about the person of interest or the status of the investigation were immediately available.
