Dated the day this page was built. The link always leads to this event, even after the stories are regrouped.
During the search, investigators obtained video surveillance footage from the night of March 21 showing Day dragging “what appears to be a lifeless body from the home into the backyard.”
What happened
The outlets' own sentences, most widely reported first. Hover one for who reported it.
The body was taken to the University of North Texas Center for Human Identification, where a DNA analysis confirmed two weeks ago that it was Soluri's remains, O'Brien said.
Before Soluri's body was identified, Day bragged to fellow inmates in jail that it would be impossible to convict him of murder if his victim's remains could not be found, according to a notice filed by the Tarrant County District Attorney’s Office.
Day then allegedly admitted that he and Soluri had fought after she had filmed him acting irate, and when she threatened to call 911, he panicked and strangled her with his bare hands on the kitchen floor.
Soluri was last seen in March 2025 after taking a brief leave from her job with Envoy Air, a regional carrier under American Airlines.
