FBI Releases Crucial New Video in Nancy Guthrie Case: Expert Highlights Key Jawline and Gait Clues

Share and Follow

In Tucson, Arizona, the FBI has unveiled new video footage in the ongoing investigation into Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance. This footage offers “a wealth of information” that could prove crucial in identifying the individual captured in the video, according to a body language expert. Despite the person wearing a mask, the images reveal important physical and behavioral details.

Susan Constantine, who has analyzed the recently obtained footage, shared her insights with Fox News Digital. She noted that the video immediately highlights certain behavioral characteristics.

Constantine observed that the individual’s jawline appears to be puffy, which might suggest the presence of beard hair beneath the mask. Additionally, the shape of the person’s head and the absence of visible hair could imply that the individual is bald.

She also highlighted the significance of the backpack seen in the footage, noting its fullness as a noteworthy detail when evaluating the person’s level of preparation.

The released image by the FBI depicts an armed suspect seemingly tampering with a camera at Nancy Guthrie’s front door on the morning she vanished in Tucson, Arizona, on February 1, 2026.

From a behavioral perspective, Constantine said the circumstances shown in the footage do not appear consistent with a robbery gone bad, noting that robberies often involve two or three people with defined roles. The FBI images released so far show one individual, and she emphasized that investigators have not publicly identified a motive or confirmed the subject’s role.

Despite the subject wearing a mask, Constantine said the footage still reveals identifiable physical traits.

“Even with the mask on, we can still see his eyes, his body structure, his proportions and his gait,” Constantine said. “All of those things are identifiable.”

She described the subject as appearing physically fit and athletically built, with most likely brown eyes, tightly trimmed facial hair and what she described as an olive-toned complexion.

The new images and videos were revealed Tuesday by FBI Director Kash Patel as the search for Guthrie entered its tenth day.

Patel said investigators recovered the footage using residual data from backend systems after recording devices at Guthrie’s home were removed or rendered inaccessible.

“Over the last eight days, the FBI and Pima County Sheriff’s Department have been working closely with our private sector partners to recover any images or video footage from Nancy Guthrie’s home that may have been lost, corrupted, or inaccessible,” Patel wrote. “The video was recovered from residual data located in backend systems.”

According to Patel, the newly uncovered images show an armed individual appearing to tamper with a camera at Guthrie’s front door on the morning of her disappearance.

Constantine said the moment captured on video would have been frightening.

“Can you imagine an 84-year-old woman having someone like that standing over her, wearing a mask?” she said.

She stressed that releasing the footage publicly could be critical to generating new leads.

“Someone is going to notice something,” Constantine said. “The clothing, the gloves, the backpack — those are linkable details.”

The FBI is urging anyone with information related to Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance to contact 1-800-CALL-FBI.
