As reported by 6abc Action News, the distraught parents of Ashley Robinson, also referred to as Ashlee Jenae, have expressed their frustration to the media, stating they “have not received clear information from officials in Tanzania or from her fiancé regarding the circumstances surrounding her tragic death.” In a heartfelt interview published on Tuesday, April 14, Yolanda Denise Endres and Harry Robinson opened up about their devastating loss.
“My daughter Ashly, she’s no longer here with us, and we’re trying to find out why,” Endres shared, her voice filled with sorrow. “She was beginning the next chapter of her life. She FaceTimed us to share her travel plans and the excitement of her vacation.”
Tragically, just a week later, Jenae was discovered dead under mysterious circumstances.
According to the report, Ashlee Jenae had traveled to Zanzibar with her fiancé to celebrate her 31st birthday. While they were enjoying their vacation, her boyfriend of one year, Joe McCann, proposed to her, marking what was supposed to be a joyful occasion.
Moreover, according to Ashlee Jenae’s mother, on April 8, she received a call from her daughter, who disclosed that she and McCann had been involved in a disagreement, leading to them being placed in separate rooms. The following day, Endres reportedly received a concerning call from McCann.
“He told me that Ashly did something to herself and she was being taken to the hospital, assuring me she was stable. I inquired about what had happened, and he mentioned it had been 11 hours prior,” Endres recounted, her distress evident.
