Sheriff warns it could be ‘years’ before Savannah Guthrie’s mother is found

Now the FBI is examining every aspect of the video to identify anything notable about the alleged suspect and what he was wearing.

“They will determine where to purchase that holster, that backpack, that gun,” said Lance Leising, a retired special agent. Daily mail. “They’re going to identify the exact make and model, find out where it’s sold, watch the video and see who walked out with it.”

The suspect was seen wearing a fleece or windbreaker jacket with reflective details, which experts said could help identify possible brands. Small features such as stitching, zippers and seams can point investigators to the manufacturer.

The backpack could be even more important. Analysts noted that it resembled a standard 25-liter bag, full and tightly packed, similar to those sold at major retailers. Former FBI Behavioral Science Unit Chief Greg Vecchi said the way the suspect carried and packed the bag could also reveal clues about their planning.

Authorities are also examining the ski mask, gloves and firearm holster. Experts say the way the holster was worn may indicate the suspect is not an experienced gun owner, while the gloves — possibly nitrile work gloves — were clearly used to avoid leaving fingerprints.

A single black latex glove found about 1.5 miles from the crime scene could provide a crucial clue if DNA is recovered.
