In a roughly one-minute Instagram video, Guthrie adn her family said they still have hope and beleive in the essential goodness of people, urging the abductor to return her and noting that it\u2019s never too late to do the right thing. Authorities say a potential breakthrough has emerged: a glove found near Nancy Guthrie\u2019s Tucson <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/poll-fbi-raid-boosts-trumps-popular-support\/\" title=\"Poll: ... raid boosts Trump...s popular support\">home appears<\/a> to match the gloves seen in the suspect\u2019s surveillance footage, and the DNA on that glove is distinct from the DNA on 15 other gloves recovered nearby; it is indeed undergoing further testing. The case has seen tension between state and federal investigators, with Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos accusing the FBI of blocking key evidence and sending gloves to a private Florida lab, though he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/cdc-denies-withholding-data-on-covid-deaths-and-hospitalizations\/\" title=\"CDC Denies Withholding Data on COVID Deaths and Hospitalizations\">denies withholding data<\/a> and says the FBI had approved the testing arrangement. The suspect is described as a man about 5&#8217;9&#8243; to 5&#8217;10&#8221; with an average build, potentially seen with an Ozark Trail Hiker backpack, while Nancy Guthrie, 84, reportedly has a pacemaker and requires daily medication. As the investigation continues into its third week, officials say the glove evidence could be crucial for advancing the case.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Savannah Guthrie issues new plea to alleged kidnapper: &lsquo;It&rsquo;s never too late to do the right thing&rsquo;<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2504806\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p><em>Today<\/em> show co-host Savannah Guthrie appealed to the alleged kidnapper of Nancy Guthrie to &ldquo;do the right thing&rdquo; as the investigation into her 84-year-old mother&rsquo;s <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/missing-persons\">disappearance<\/a> enters its third week.<\/p>\n<p>Guthrie <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/savannahguthrie\/\">posted<\/a> an emotional message to Instagram on Sunday night to mark two weeks since her mother disappeared from her Tucson, <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/arizona\">Arizona<\/a>, home.
