The Ashanti Alert was named for Billie Ashanti, a Virginia woman who was abducted from her workplace and found dead 11 days later in North Carolina. Since she was 19, she didn't fit the criteria for an Amber Alert. The Ashanti Alert is issued for people who are 18-years-old or older and there is reason to believe their disappearance was involuntary.
Around 9:08 a.m. Tuesday, an additional alert stating Silas had been located was issued. KSP later clarified in a news release that he was found deceased. “KSP grieves with this family and the community,” the release said. The agency said they are unable to provide any additional information at this time.
