The remains of Rana Nofal Soluri, a Jordanian-American flight attendant, were recently identified after being found in a Texas river. The 47-year-old was reported missing in March of the previous year following a medical leave, and her body was discovered by a fisherman in June. DNA testing at the University of North Texas Health Centre confirmed her identity.
Soluri's roommate, Dennis William Day, 67, confessed to her murder and admitted to "snapping" during a dispute, causing her to be strangled. The arrest warrant states that Day's home footage shows him dragging what appears to be a body from the house to the backyard on March 21, 2025. Day is currently awaiting trial. A "tampering with evidence" charge was filed against another woman, Joni Thomas, after an inadvertent call and a voicemail suggested she was involved in the cover-up.
Soluri's sister, Nez, described her sister as a proud Jordanian-Palestinian with a big personality, despite her small frame. A GoFundMe page has been established for Soluri's daughter, Lulu, to assist with burial costs and other expenses.
