A private lab working with the Pima County Sheriff’s Department sent the sample—discovered during the initial investigation at Nancy Guthrie’s home in Tucson, Arizona—to the federal agency.

Sheriff Chris Nanos said the process could take up to six months to isolate the relevant DNA strands, adding that five labs are simultaneously working on evidence from the Guthrie case.
