Oboite, who had eluded authorities for almost two years was captured by Department of Natural Resources Officers on Lake Allatoona, GA, while jet skiing on Saturday, June 1. The Department of Natural Resources says game wardens tried to pull him over for a no wake violation, but he took off, ditched the jet ski on the shore and ran into the woods. Game wardens tracked him down and arrested him. He will now join two accomplices, Diante Reynolds and Nicholas Hendrickson behind bars.
Allahnia went out with a friend for an evening of fun on July 30, 2022. They stopped by 1660 Peachtree St. Apartments, Atlanta, GA where Diante Reynolds and Steven Oboite lived. Her friend eventually left leaving Allahnia behind and Allahnia has never been seen or heard from since.
EVENT CANCELED:
Given the successful capture, the fundraiser scheduled for June 12, 2024 is now canceled. We sincerely thank everyone who contributed and supported this cause to get justice for Allahnia.
