How a butt-dialed voicemail may have exposed chilling cover-up of missing flight attendant's murder



An American Airlines flight attendant went missing, and her body has yet to be found. However, authorities say a Texas woman may have implicated herself and her friend after an accidental butt-dial phone call left behind a damning voicemail.

Rana Nofal Soluri — a 47-year-old flight attendant from Fort Worth — was reported missing on June 11.

'It's been torture.'

Soluri had been out of work since late March while recovering from minor surgery, the New York Post reported. Her co-workers at Envoy Air — an American Airlines subsidiary — reported Soluri missing after they purportedly were unable to contact her.

During a June 10 welfare check, police questioned 66-year-old Dennis William Day — Soluri’s roommate. According to the Post, Day told investigators that Soluri had been a longtime friend and had been living with him in Fort Worth but added he had not seen her for three months.

On June 23, police conducted a search of Day's property and interviewed him again.

Citing an affidavit, NBC News reported that investigators also looked at surveillance video from the property.

Police said the surveillance video shows Day dragging "what appears to be a lifeless body from the home into the backyard" on March 21.

Coincidentally, detectives secured a search warrant for Soluri's cell phone records, which reportedly show that the last call she made was on March 21, according to People magazine.

Day was arrested and booked into the Tarrant County Jail on June 26, according to jail records. Day was charged with murder and is being detained on a $200,000 bond.

On Aug. 26, police arrested a second suspect — 62-year-old Joni Thomas. She was charged with tampering with evidence. She has since been released on bond.

According to a criminal complaint obtained by KXAS-TV, Day convinced Thomas to let him use her pickup truck to transport Soluri's body, and Thomas assisted Day in throwing the corpse off a bridge.

Thomas initially told investigators that she didn't allow Day to use her truck, according to police. However, Thomas allegedly changed her story later.

Citing the arrest warrant, KXAS reported that investigators said Thomas later said Day did use her truck and that she was with him but didn't know what was going on. In addition, it's alleged that Thomas said she thought Day had stopped on the bridge to urinate, and then she fell asleep in the passenger seat, waking up in Day's driveway.

However, Day allegedly admitted to authorities that he borrowed Thomas' truck to dispose of a body.

According to the arrest warrant, police say cell phone records show Thomas drove to Day's house after he allegedly killed Soluri, and both Thomas and Day left their phones at his house before driving to Bowie.

"This is a clear effort by both [Day] and [Thomas] to deceive law enforcement and make it appear like they never left [Day’s] house in Fort Worth, Texas, when they were dumping [Nofal’s] body in Bowie, TX," police said in the warrant, according to KXAS.

Then, investigators discovered an accidental voicemail that could incriminate Day and spell trouble for Thomas.

According to the arrest warrant, a male and female can be heard speaking in the voicemail left on Thomas' cell phone. The pair reportedly were talking about lifting something heavy.

A male can be heard saying, "Hey ... help me," "Make sure the lid's on," and "I'm sorry I got you messed up in this."

Citing the arrest warrant, the New York Post reported that Day confessed to getting into an argument with Soluri after she allegedly recorded video of him acting irate and threatened to call 911. Day claimed he "snapped" and reacted by strangling his roommate with his bare hands, according to police.

The New York Post reported that police said he confessed to stuffing Soluri's body into a black trash bin and dumping it off a bridge in the town of Bowie — roughly 70 miles north of Fort Worth.

The Post added that despite searches at multiple bridges in Bowie, Soluri’s body has not been recovered — and officials fear flooding may have pushed the body downstream.

Soluri’s sister, Nez, told KXAS that her family has been heartbroken: “It’s been torture. Every other day, I keep dreaming or wishing ... maybe she bumped her head, had amnesia — something.”

Anyone Who Blames ‘Both Sides’ After Charlie Kirk’s Murder Is A Liar And Coward

Wife and son helped father dismember man's body with a chainsaw after a lethal poker game, police say



A 41-year-old New Jersey man named Everton Thomas fled to Canada after shooting and killing a man during a poker game at his home in Camden, police say.

Harold Miller, 48, had been reported missing in June, and his vehicle was later found in Pennsauken, according to the Camden County Prosecutor's Office. A police investigation used security video footage and cellphone data to determine that he had been playing poker with Thomas at his home on Baird Boulevard on June 12.

The mother, when allegedly explaining her actions, said, 'A wife got to do what she's got to do.'

Police said the footage showed Miller never left the home again.

The video also captured the sound of a gunshot at the home, according to police.

Everton Thomas's 22-year-old son, Deshawn Thomas, and 41-year-old wife, Sherrie Parker, then allegedly purchased a chainsaw and cleaning items to bring back to the residence, according to police. They also obtained containers and trash bags.

Police said surveillance video showed Everton Thomas and his son making several trips to the dumpsters at Tamarack Apartments to load containers and drive away.

When police searched the home on June 20, they said they recovered a loaded firearm with one round in the chamber. They also found bloodstains which later matched the DNA of the missing man.

Everton Thomas allegedly fled from the U.S. to Canada the next day.

On Sept. 5, Everton Thomas was charged with first-degree murder, and he, his son, and his wife were charged with desecration of human remains.

Prosecutors say the son told police that his father had woken him up and asked him to "chop up" a body. The mother, when allegedly explaining her actions, said, "A wife got to do what she's got to do."

Neighbors had said they smelled a strong odor coming from the residence that appeared to be something decomposing, according to WPVI-TV.

Everton Thomas was arrested and is awaiting extradition to New Jersey.

Miller's remains have not been found.

Charlie Kirk's suspected assassin — now facing death penalty — makes his first court appearance



Charlie Kirk's suspected assassin — 22-year-old Tyler Robinson — made his first court appearance Tuesday afternoon in Utah.

During the virtual hearing, Robinson was briefly seen on video wearing what appeared to be a bulletproof vest. The only words Robinson spoke were his full name in response to the judge's request for him to state it: "Tyler James Robinson."

'I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk, and I'm going to take it.'

The judge noted that he reviewed Robinson's financial status declaration, found the defendant "indigent," and would assign an attorney to represent him. The judge also said Robinson would remain in custody with no bail.

A trial team representative stated that a pretrial protective order was submitted on behalf of Erika Kirk, the widow of Charlie Kirk; the judge granted that request. The trial team representative added that it had just submitted to the court a notice of the state's intent to seek the death penalty against Robinson.

The judge then read the charges against Robinson, which Utah County Attorney Jeff Gray formally brought against the suspect just two hours prior.

Those charges include aggravated murder and felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily injury. Gray in his earlier news conference Tuesday said the state is alleging in regard to the latter two charges "aggravating factors" because it's believed that Robinson "targeted" Kirk because of the TPUSA founder's "political expression" and knew that children were present at the scene and would "witness the homicide."

The other charges include:

  • One count of obstruction of justice, a second-degree felony, for "moving and concealing the rifle used in the shooting."
  • One count of obstruction of justice, a second-degree felony, for "disposing [of] the clothing he wore during the shooting."
  • One count of witness tampering, a third-degree felony, for directing his roommate to "delete his incriminating texts."
  • One count of witness tampering, a third-degree felony, for directing his roommate to "stay silent if police questioned him."
  • One count of commission of a violent offense in the presence of a child, a Class A misdemeanor, for "committing homicide knowing that children were present and may have seen or heard the murder and did so" based on Kirk's "political expression."

After the judge read the charges against Robinson, he soon declared the hearing in recess. The judge earlier stated that the next hearing — which also will be virtual — is set for 10 a.m. Sept. 29.

Blaze News previously reported that Gray also stated that Robinson texted his transgender roommate and told him to drop everything to look at a note he had left under his keyboard. According to charging documents, the note read: "I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk, and I'm going to take it."

Gray also confirmed that Robinson had begun to date his biologically male roommate, who had begun transitioning to female. An alleged text chain between Robinson and his roommate also appears to undermine a left-wing narrative about a possible motive that painted Robinson as right-wing due to his family connections.

Utah County attorney formally charges Charlie Kirk's suspected assassin



The Utah County attorney on Tuesday brought formal charges against the suspected assassin of Charlie Kirk.

Calling Kirk's assassination an "American tragedy," Jeff Gray said during a news conference that 22-year-old Tyler Robinson has been charged with aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily injury, obstruction of justice, and other crimes.

'Charlie Kirk was murdered while engaging in one our most sacred and cherished American rights, the bedrock of our democratic republic: the free exchange of ideas in a search for truth, understanding, and a more perfect union.'

Gray previously noted that aggravated murder under Utah law carries a penalty of either death, life in prison without the possibility of parole, or 25 years to life in prison with the possibility of parole. Gray on Tuesday said he intends to bring the death penalty against Robinson.

As for the aggravated murder charge, Gray added Tuesday that the suspect "intentionally or knowingly" caused Kirk's death "under circumstances that created a great risk of death to others."

Officials previously said felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily injury carries a penalty of five years to life in prison.

Gray on Tuesday said the state is alleging in regard to the latter two charges "aggravating factors" because it's believed that Robinson "targeted" Kirk because of the TPUSA founder's "political expression" and knew that children were present at the scene and would "witness the homicide."

Other charges include:

  • One count of obstruction of justice, a second-degree felony, for "moving and concealing the rifle used in the shooting."
  • One count of obstruction of justice, a second-degree felony, for "disposing [of] the clothing he wore during the shooting."
  • One count of witness tampering, a third-degree felony, for directing his roommate to "delete his incriminating texts."
  • One count of witness tampering, a third-degree felony, for directing his roommate to "stay silent if police questioned him."
  • One count of commission of a violent offense in the presence of a child, a Class A misdemeanor, for "committing homicide knowing that children that were present and may have seen or heard the murder and did so" based on Kirk's "political expression."

"Charlie Kirk was murdered while engaging in one our most sacred and cherished American rights, the bedrock of our democratic republic: the free exchange of ideas in a search for truth, understanding, and a more perfect union," Gray also said Tuesday.

Robinson, of Washington, Utah, was arrested and booked into the Utah County Jail without bail early Friday morning on suspicion of committing the listed crimes in connection with Kirk's murder Wednesday at Utah Valley University in Orem, officials said.

The TPUSA founder was killed by a single shot to his neck while presiding over one of his wildly popular speaking events directed toward college students.

Now that charges have been formally filed, officials said Robinson will make his first appearance in court — a felony first appearance — at 3 p.m. local time (5 p.m. ET) Tuesday.

Blaze News on Monday noted that FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed that the agency found and processed DNA evidence from a towel wrapped around a firearm found discarded in a wooded area near the UVU campus, as well as on a screwdriver found on the rooftop where the shooter was believed to have been. Both DNA samples were a positive match to Robinson, according to Patel.

As Blaze News also noted, several reports have confirmed that Robinson lived with a transgender-identifying roommate. The pair resided in an apartment in Saint George, Utah, and had a "romantic relationship," Fox News Digital first reported.

The roommate is a biological male who claims he is transitioning to a female. The FBI stated that he has been "extremely cooperative" with the agency's investigation and allegedly "had no idea" Robinson had allegedly planned the fatal shooting and has not been accused of any criminal activity in connection with Kirk's assassination.

In addition, Utah Governor Spencer Cox (R) confirmed that Robinson's roommate identified as transgender, indicating that this information may assist investigators in determining a motive for Kirk's assassination, although he noted that Robinson's motive remains unclear.

Antifa Is Responsible For Charlie Kirk’s Assassination

What people often fail to understand is that for Antifa, 'anti-fascism' isn’t just a thing you are, it’s a thing you do.

Dad stabbed to death while walking 8-year-old son home from elementary school, police say



A San Francisco community is stunned after the horrific stabbing death of a father who was walking his son home from elementary school on Wednesday.

A suspect in the incident was arrested on Friday about 170 miles away in Tuolumne County, but San Francisco police have not released many details from the horrible attack.

'Immediately after this incident occurred, our officers began a tireless investigation to identify and apprehend the suspect. ... We were relentless.'

Police said the stabbing was reported at about 4:30 p.m just yards away from the Commodore Sloat Elementary School at the crosswalk between Ocean Ave. and Junipero Serra Blvd.

"The homicide was horrific," said San Francisco Police Department Interim Chief Paul Yep. "A father who was walking across the street with his son was fatally stabbed in the crosswalk after getting into an altercation with the suspect."

The victim was identified as 35-year-old Robert Paul Byrd II.

His father said on social media that Byrd died while holding the hand of his 8-year-old son.

An altercation was reported between Byrd and the suspect, but few details were released about the nature of the argument.

"There were words that were exchanged, and other people heard the commotion and what was happening, and the perpetrator stabbed the victim and ran away," said Supervisor Myrna Melgar, whose district includes the school.

Yep said dozens of officers worked around the clock to identify the suspect. They used evidence gathered from license plate readers, drones, surveillance cameras, and eyewitness accounts.

"Immediately after this incident occurred, our officers began a tireless investigation to identify and apprehend the suspect," Yep said. "We were relentless."

San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins tried to reassure the public by saying the attack was not random in nature, but offered no other details. She added that they are still trying to determine the exact charges to file against the suspect.

"The message is clear: If you commit a crime — especially a violent crime — we will find you, and we will arrest you," San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie said.

A GoFundMe account set up for the victim's family has raised more than $62K.

"Robert was a devoted father, a loving son, and a joyful presence to everyone who knew him," the description on the page reads. "Family and friends remember him as someone who brought laughter and warmth wherever he went, a person who took life seriously but always found ways to share joy."

Man allegedly destroys Charlie Kirk memorial, swiftly gets what he deserves



In the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination, hundreds, if not thousands, of people across the nation have publicly gathered to honor and memorialize the late conservative giant. However, these peaceful gatherings have sometimes been met with violent outbursts, including at the headquarters for Turning Point USA, the organization Kirk founded.

Fox News cameras were rolling at the growing memorial outside TPUSA's headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona, when a man began trampling on mementos placed on the ground by mourners.

The alleged perpetrator was identified as 19-year-old Ryder Corral.

The memorial, which was made up of American flags, balloons, vases, flowers, and signs, stretched along a public walkway. Several onlookers and mourners were in the area.

After a vandal stomps through what appears to be several yards of the memorial, a man in a blue polo shirt is seen on video grabbing the vandal and throwing him to the ground.

The suspect's T-shirt, which appears to have a bald eagle with the words "Land of the Free" across the top and "Home of the Brave" across the bottom, is remarkably similar to the shirt that the alleged shooter of Charlie Kirk was wearing.

Police, who were already on the scene to assist with traffic control, swiftly grabbed the man, handcuffed him, and took him away.

The alleged perpetrator was identified as 19-year-old Ryder Corral.

Phoenix Police Department Public Information Sergeant Philip Krynsky told Fox News that Corral is now in custody at the Maricopa County Jail on one count of criminal damage and one count of disorderly conduct.

FBI Arrests 2 Utah Men for Planting Bomb Under News Vehicle as Media Flock To Cover Charlie Kirk Assassination

The FBI has arrested two men who allegedly placed an incendiary device beneath a Fox 13 News vehicle in Magna, Utah, which is located roughly an hour away from the site of the Charlie Kirk assassination.

Charlie Kirk hater goes nuclear on supporter of slain activist — then pays price after allegedly unleashing physical attacks



A unhinged female was caught on video mocking and accosting a Charlie Kirk supporter — and paid a big price after allegedly unleashing physical attacks.

The incident took place Friday at Texas Tech University and involved a student there, the Daily Mail reported.

'I'm not being aggressive! My voice is very calm! You're calling me aggressive because I'm a black woman!'

Cellphone video shows a man wearing a Make America Great Again hat and holding a sign in memory of Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated Wednesday at Utah Valley University during one of his popular student-focused events.

But a female didn't like the Kirk supporter's sign, which simply read, "Rest in peace, Charlie."

Video shows the female jumping up and down and chanting "F**k y'all homie dead! He got shot in the head!"

The man wearing the MAGA hat says, "Evil is real, people, and it kind of looks like that," as he pans his cell phone toward the female in question. He adds, "Evil. Evil. Murder is bad; she is evil."

She's seen getting in the man's face with her cell phone, after which he asks, "Can somebody tell her to back up, please?"

Oddly, the female tells him to not push the camera in her face, and he replies, "I'm sitting here. You walked up to me. I don't want this. I said, 'Rest in peace.' Just leave me alone. Please don't come after me. I want to be left alone."

Another female off-camera tells her she is being emotional, which only raises her ire: "I'm not emotional, ma'am! Don't tell me what I am and what I'm not! You can get out of my face 'cause I can tell you what you are, but you won't like it!"

The man insists she is being aggressive, and then the female shoots back, "I'm not being aggressive! My voice is very calm! You're calling me aggressive because I'm a black woman!" The man denies the allegation.

RELATED: The left’s reaction to Charlie Kirk’s assassination is DISGUSTING

The Daily Mail identified the female in question as 18-year-old Camryn Giselle Booker, a Texas Tech University student.

The outlet added that things escalated when "Booker allegedly shoved several people, including an elderly veteran and a young mother with her child" — and that "prompted a physical altercation that spread into the street."

The Lubbock County Sheriff's Office on Monday morning told Blaze News that Texas Tech Police arrested Booker on Friday, that she was given a Class C Citation for assault, and that she posted a $200 cash bond on Saturday.

The incident caught the attention of Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, who posted reactions on X. One of them reads, "Definitely picked the wrong school to taunt the death of Charlie Kirk. Thanks Texas Tech."

The other post from Abbott shows a photo of Booker getting handcuffed, and it reads, "This is what happened to the person who was mocking Charlie Kirk’s assassination at Texas Tech. FAFO."

In response to one of Abbott's posts, Cody Campbell — chairman of the Board of Regents for the Texas Tech University System — posted on X that "We, @TexasTech, are proud of our values and are not afraid to stand up for them. Strive for Honor Evermore! Long Live the Matadors!!"

NewsNation reported that it's attempting to confirm reports of Booker's expulsion from Texas Tech and has reached out to the school for comment.
