Forensic pathologist Dr. Michael Baden has revealed to investigators that blood droplets found in the Tucson home of Nancy Guthrie suggest that she may have been forcibly abducted. Guthrie, aged 84, has been reported missing since February 1. As part of the ongoing investigation, Dr. Baden through forensic analysis has suggested that the trace amounts of blood discovered at Guthrie's residence hint towards a possible abduction scenario.

Dr. Baden's theory is based on his extensive experience and knowledge in the field of forensic pathology. He has deduced from the presence of blood droplets at the scene that a violent confrontation may have occurred, leading to Guthrie's disappearance. However, the investigation is still ongoing, and no conclusive evidence has been released as of yet supporting this theory.

The investigators are further exploring Dr. Baden's hypothesis, which has added a new dimension to the case. Critical evidence such as the blood droplets are being analyzed to provide insights into the nature of what happened that resulted in Guthrie's sudden disappearance. As the situation evolves, the investigative team continues to examine other possible leads in relation to the missing person's case.

Dr. Michael Baden's revelations have highlighted potential scenarios and shed light on the seriousness of the case. Guthrie's mysterious disappearance remains under investigation. As no other significant clues have been identified yet, the investigators are hopeful that further examination of the blood droplets and other potential evidence at the scene will eventually lead to her whereabouts.
