What was first reported as a burglary at a Tipp City home has now shifted into a far more serious investigation.

Shortly after 2:30 a.m. yesterday morning, a call came in from the Flynn home on Cunningham Court, a quiet cul-de-sac in Tipp City, Ohio, just north of Dayton. Ashley’s husband told police that someone had entered the house. When officers arrived, he and the couple’s two children were unharmed, but Ashley Flynn, 37, a beloved local coach and teacher, was found deceased inside the residence.

Although investigators said they found signs of forced entry, officers secured the scene and searched the surrounding streets in the hours that followed, but no suspect was located.

As the day continued, additional investigators were brought to the scene. Local forensic teams remained inside the home while agents from the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation joined the effort, working through what officials have described as a "complex situation" as evidence was collected and processed.

For now no arrests have been made and authorities are urging anyone with information or video footage that could assist investigators to contact the Tipp City Police Department.

In the early morning hours yesterday morning, a 3-year-old girl was reported missing from an apartment in Enterprise, Alabama. Her mother told authorities she discovered Genises Nova Reid gone from her bedroom on Apache Drive around 3 a.m., and that a door to the residence was open.

Officers began searching the complex and surrounding area shortly after the report, but as the area was canvassed, the timeline began to draw closer scrutiny.
Several residents told police they could not recall seeing Genises in weeks. While that detail does not necessarily contradict the family’s account, it shifts attention to an important question about when was she last independently seen.

Yesterday, Enterprise police held a press conference asking anyone who has seen Genises in the last 30 days to come forward.
Establishing the last confirmed sighting is now a key focus of the investigation. The FBI has also joined in assisting on the case.
For now, the timeline remains the detail everyone is trying to pin down.

Something to SMIZE about! A new three-part documentary premieres on Netflix today, revisiting the rise and fall of America’s Next Top Model and taking a closer look at what was happening behind the scenes. When the show debuted in 2003, it promised to launch modeling careers and open doors. But the show itself became the spectacle leaving many people wondering if the girls went on to work in the industry at all.

Creator and host Tyra Banks sat alongside a panel of judges who framed their critiques as industry standard and a necessary part of the job. The cameras stayed on when judging became personal and contestants broke down, which was often. But the formula was successful and back then, no one really questioned it.

Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model is a deep dive into what really went on behind-the-scenes and the complicated legacy the series left behind. It features interviews with all the original cast with Tyra Banks, Jay Manuel, Miss J Alexander, and Nigel Barker reflecting on their experiences on the show.

Interestingly enough, director Daniel Sivan has said Banks had no creative control over the project and will be seeing the finished series for the first time the same way viewers do, on Netflix.
