Tucson police say the bone is at least 50 years old,that there\u2019s no criminal investigation planned,and that the University of Arizona\u2019s anthropology department is helping the Medical Examiner determine details. The article also notes Native American artifacts were reportedly found in the same area.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >piece discusses criticism<\/a> by FBI director Kash Patel of how the Pima County Sheriff\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/husband-of-former-la-county-da-avoids-jail-after-pulling-gun-on-blm-activists\/\" title=\"Husband Of Former LA County DA Avoids Jail After Pulling Gun On BLM Activists\">office handled<\/a> the early stages of Guthrie\u2019s disappearance investigation, including concerns about access to the case and the use of a private DNA lab rather than the FBI lab.
