Investigators have just received results of the dusting of the Smart home for fingerprints, and want to see which of the prints can be crossed off the list as belonging to friends of the family who came to help the Smarts after the disappearance of the girl.

Police hope this will help them identify someone who might have been in the house without the Smarts' knowledge.

"We are not using this to implicate anybody," Salt Lake City police spokesman Sgt. Fred Louis said. "We just want to verify who was in the home that morning."

Police told The Associated Press that five of the eight male neighbors who were asked to provide their fingerprints did so on Monday. The other three were out of town and said they would give police their prints when they return, the news agency reported.

Police continued to deny reports there are plans to ask neighbors to submit blood or DNA samples, though they say that could happen as the investigation develops.

I could be wrong but I think there were 8 men. 5 did provide fingerprint samples and the other 3 were out of town but would do so when they returned. No word if there were any women.
