"Sources told the Press-Republican that law-enforcement officials have DNA confirmation on both men that leads them to believe the sighting at the hunting camp was valid.
It is a strong lead, multiple sources said.
Boots, bloody socks and toiletries were found, along with a water jug and jar of peanut butter that had been opened at the camp, the Press-Republican has been told.
The agencies involved in the search got are getting fast turnaround on forensics information because this is a high-profile, highly dangerous case."

Terry Bellinger, owner of Bellys Mountain View Inn in nearby Owls Head, told the Press-Republican that a local man, armed with a handgun, went to check on his camp off Wolf Pond Road on Black Cat Mountain on Saturday and saw a jug of water and a jar of peanut butter on the table.
Bellinger said the camp owner yelled for whoever was inside to come out.
The person saw a man run out the back but could not tell whether it was one of the fugitives, said Bellinger, who noted the camps in that area are empty most of the year and often have canned goods in them.
The Press-Republican has confirmed that the camp is owned by a group of correction officers. There is no indication that information on the camp's location was provided to Matt and Sweat."

""The dogs have got a good track, and we are tightening the perimeter," one official told the Press-Republican Monday, "so within the next 24 to 48 hours, we're confident they will be caught."
Law-enforcement officials close to the investigation said a hard perimeter was being set up Monday and the big push should begin on Tuesday.
FOLLOWED RAILROAD BED
It looks like Matt and Sweat followed the power lines and an old railroad bed from Dannemora to Lyon Mountain and into Standish, the sources said.
"And from that, it looks like Mrs. (Joyce) Mitchell was Plan A (as their ride out of Dannemora). There was No Plan B," one said.
"They don't have a plan now, other than to evade us.""
