A connection between the Nancy Guthrie case and the Gilgo Beach murders has come to light. The FBI may turn to a San Francisco forensics lab that helped crack the Long Island serial killer case to find answers in Nancy's potential abduction.

Astrea Forensics, a lab with a proven track record, could be on the shortlist of specialized private labs that might be able to help. The lab developed a DNA profile from rootless hair evidence in the Gilgo Beach case and has been involved in six successful cases.

An FBI official recently confirmed that a hair sample was among the evidence collected from Nancy's home and sent to a private lab in Florida by the Pima County Sheriff's Department in the days after her suspected abduction.

Genetic genealogist CeCe Moore said, 'Sending it to Astrea, where there is a proven track record, is by far the safest option.'
