NEWLY SINGLE, ASHLEY ELKINS WAS MOVING ON IN HER LIFE AND CAREER. THEN SHE DISAPPEARED

WHERE'S ASHLEY?

Shortly after opening shop on the morning of what promised to be a busy New Year's Eve in 2024, hairstylist Ashley Elkins, 30, and her sister Alexis, 22, stood quiet and still behind the blinds of the home that doubled as Ashley's salon in Warren, Mich. Outside the front door a man who had hastily scheduled an appointment that morning—Ashley's estranged boyfriend DeAndre Booker, 32—knocked impatiently. “We were trying to figure out what he was doing and thought he was just trying to get her attention because she wasn't talking to him,” recalls Alexis. After about five minutes Booker gave up and left, she says, while the sisters shrugged off the incident as harmless. “They were giggling,” says their mother, Monika Elkins.
