A retired FBI special agent believes it’s unlikely that missing 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie walked out of her home on her own accord and was instead “wrapped up in something” and carried out.
Maureen O’Connell, an ex-FBI agent, shared her assessment based on forensic evidence and the pattern of blood found outside Nancy’s front door. Appearing on Brian Entin Investigates on Sunday (March 8), O’Connell said, “I doubt that [Nancy] walked out because there were no voids [in the blood spatter].”
