Prosecutors seeking to convict the Texas man charged with killing flight attendant Rana Nofal Soluri and throwing her body off a bridge have a powerful new piece of evidence — the victim’s body.
asserted
Prosecutors → seek → evidence
Soluri’s remains were found on June 13 but only recently have been “confirmed to be her through DNA testing,” a spokesperson for the Fort Worth Police Department told NBC News on Sunday.
asserted
spokesperson → find → Sunday
Her body was found by a fisherman trolling beneath a bridge on the bank of a creek in Montague County, which is about 70 miles northwest of downtown Fort Worth, police told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
asserted
police → find → Telegram
The body was then taken to the University of North Texas Center for Human Identification.
asserted
body → take → Identification
It has since been released to her daughter, Lulu Soluri, according to a GoFundMe page set up on her behalf.
uncertain
It → release → behalf
American Airlines flew the body to Seattle for a Muslim burial that took place on Sept. 29, an update on the GoFundMe announced.
asserted
update → fly → GoFundMe
Soluri worked for a regional carrier owned by American Airlines.
asserted
Soluri → work → Airlines
The break in the case came more than a year after Soluri’s former roommate, 67-year-old Dennis Day, was arrested in June 2025 and charged with murder.
asserted
roommate → come → murder
Police took Day into custody two months after the 47-year-old flight attendant went missing around March 19, 2025.
asserted
attendant → take → March
A short time later, Joni Thomas, now 63 and also known as Joanne Walters, was accused of helping him dump Soluri’s body, police said.
asserted
police → know → body
She was charged with tampering with evidence with intent to impair a human corpse.
asserted
She → charge → corpse
Soluri had lived with Day for approximately a year, police said.
asserted
police → live → year
She had taken some time off for a minor operation and was supposed to return to work on March 31st, 2025.
asserted
She → take → 31st
When she didn’t, a co-worker reported her missing on June 11, 2025, police said.
asserted
police → do → June
Suspicion quickly fell on Day, who later admitted to police that he “snapped” during a dispute with Soluri before he “began to strangle her with his bare hands,” his arrest warrant said.
asserted
warrant → fall → hands
After the slaying, Day loaded Soluri’s body “head first, into a large black trash bin and transported” it 70 miles away to Bowie, a town in Montague County, where he dumped the remains over a bridge, according to the court document.
uncertain
he → load → document
Day, police said, may have implicated himself and Thomas by accidentally recording themselves while transporting the victim’s body.
uncertain
police → say → body
Investigators in September revealed they found an “inadvertent call” and message on Thomas’ phone on which a panicked Day can be heard asking for her help to move Soluri.
asserted
Day → reveal → Soluri
“This report is consistent with how Dennis Day stated that he moved [Soluri’s] body into a trash can and into the bed of a truck at his house,” Day’s arrest warrant said.
asserted
warrant → state → house
“This report also confirms the fact that not only did [Thomas] travel to [Day’s] house and allowed [Day] to use her truck to transport [Soluri’s] body, but that she actually helped load [Soluri’s] body into the truck.”
asserted
she → confirm → truck
Investigators also found home security video from Day’s home, showing him dragging “what appears to be a lifeless body from the home into the backyard,” on March 21, police said.
asserted
police → find → March
It was not immediately clear where Day was being held.
asserted
Day → hold → ?
He had been listed as a prisoner at the Tarrant County Corrections Center.
asserted
He → list → Center
But his name did not come up Monday in a search of the prison’s online registry.
asserted
name → come → registry
