UPDATE: According to TMZ, the remains of influencer Ashlee Jenae, born Ashly Robinson, have been returned to her family in New Jersey — but her engagement ring and all other personal belongings are still unaccounted for. Her father, Harry Robinson, told the outlet that the family believes the items are still being held by investigators as the case remains active, with no indication of if or when they will be returned. The family has since commissioned an independent autopsy, though results are still pending, and a funeral service is being planned in New Jersey for early next week. Harry also revealed that fiancé Joe McCann has been largely silent since Ashlee’s death, and the family is still fighting to obtain hotel surveillance footage they hope will shed light on her final hours. Ashlee, 31, died on April 10th after being found unconscious in her villa at a resort in Zanzibar, Tanzania, where she and McCann had traveled to celebrate her birthday and engagement. While Tanzanian authorities initially suggested suicide, a hospital medical record tells a different story — listing the cause of death as cerebral hypoxia resulting from strangulation and suffocation, and noting an unidentified mark around her neck. Her family has firmly rejected the suicide narrative, describing her as a beacon of light who showed no signs of wanting to harm herself.
