Two weeks after Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance investigators revealed they had found several gloves, with the closest discovered about two miles from her home.
The sheriff’s department also said media reports that a glove was found inside her home or on the property were inaccurate.
To Williams’ growing audience speculation over the case only heightens its intrigue.
Since Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance, Williams’ YouTube channel Dollyvision has gained more than 8,000 new subscribers.
Interest in Nancy’s disappearance was “massive”, he said.
“You expect kidnappings to involve cash in a bag dropped off somewhere remote, and then the police turn up and arrest everyone. This is different. This is like a ‘new age’ of kidnapping.”
The days of ransom demands made up of letters cut from the pages of a magazine seem a thing of the past.
Secure servers, secret IP addresses and untraceable Bitcoin accounts have changed the face of one of the world’s oldest crimes, but a former FBI hostage negotiator, Chip Massey, said he believed Nancy Guthrie’s kidnappers would soon be caught.
Referring to the video images of a masked man on her doorstep shortly before she disappeared, he said somebody somewhere would recognise the suspect based either on their behaviour or their body language.
“The attention this case has generated is unprecedented,” he said, “and while a mask can conceal a face it can’t conceal a person.”
