Ashley Elkins was a 30-year-old mother of two, a talented hairstylist, and the heart of her family in Warren, Michigan. On January 2nd, 2024, she left home to grab supplies for her business—and never returned.
Days later, her car was found. Her phone had gone silent. And the man she had recently broken up with? He’d used a fake name to book a hair appointment just days before she vanished.
In this Unfinished episode, we walk through the eerie trail of clues that turned a missing persons report into a homicide investigation. But without Ashley’s body, her family remains stuck in the most painful place of all: waiting.
🟥 This is an active case.
🟥 Ashley has not been found.
🟥 A preliminary hearing is scheduled for August 2025.
🟥 Listener discretion is advised.
