TUCSON, Ariz. \u2014 A single backpack has become a critical focal point in the investigation<\/a> into Nancy Guthrie<\/a>\u2019s disappearance, prompting federal authorities to comb through Walmart sales records and store surveillance footage in search of a break.<\/p>\n

Investigators are working with Walmart\u2019s corporate security team while agents canvass stores across the Tucson metropolitan area, according to retired Supervisory FBI Agent Jason Pack, who described the strategy as a methodical effort to narrow the universe of possible suspects.<\/p>\n

“They\u2019re attacking this issue on several fronts,” Pack told Fox News Digital. “They are working with Walmart corporate security and simultaneously canvassing the stores in metro Tucson. Walmart should be able to trace back all sales of the backpack<\/a> over a specific period of time. That will create many regional leads as agents track down and account for every single backpack. They\u2019ll also want to recover video from the stores where they were sold.”<\/p>\n

Authorities have not publicly detailed how many of the backpacks were sold or over what timeframe they are focusing, but the approach reflects a standard federal investigative technique. Fox News Digital has reached out to Walmart Corp. for additional information.<\/p>\n

Former FBI agent<\/a> John Nantz explained how anything that “ties a subject to the crime is critical in building a case for prosecution.”<\/p>\n

Likening the purchase history analysis used in the conviction of Brian Cole Jr., who planted two live pipe bombs outside the Democratic National Committee and the Republican National Committee, Nantz said Cole\u2019s arrest came after investigators developed critical evidence from his purchase history.<\/p>\n
