The masked figure suspected of kidnapping Nancy Guthrie may have been at her front door before she disappeared on Feb. 1.
A source told ABC News that one of the images released by the FBI showing the suspect at Guthrie’s door may have been captured by her Nest doorbell camera a day before the suspected abduction.
The image showed the suspect not wearing a backpack, whereas other images showed him with the backpack.

The FBI had previously said that the images showing the suspect wearing a backpack were from Feb. 1, the day that Savannah Guthrie’s mom was reported missing after failing to show up to watch a virtual church service.
Former FBI agent Jason Pack said to ABC News that if the images are of the same person, “it could indicate that the person was there surveilling the place before the abduction happened.”
“The fact that there was preparation and planning, which makes it more of a sophisticated type of criminal activity than someone just showing up,” he told the outlet.
As of now, officials haven’t identified a suspect linked to the 84-year-old’s disappearance.

When asked for comment, the Pima County Sheriff’s Department told Page Six, “We are aware that doorbell images released earlier in the investigation depict a suspect in different stages of attire, including with and without a backpack. There is no date or time stamp associated with these images. Therefore, any suggestion that the photographs were taken on different days is purely speculative.
“This remains an active and ongoing criminal investigation,” the statement continued. “As with any investigation, conclusions will be guided by verifiable evidence and established facts. Speculation, without factual support, does not advance the investigative process.”
Theories are also circulating that the suspect caught on camera may not have been working alone and another person was also captured in the footage.
While Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said earlier in the month that he believed the man in the video is the “primary suspect” and “likely perpetrator” in the kidnapping, federal authorities have kept open the possibility that more than one person was involved.
