According to police, officers responded to the location at Arvind at 1:52 p.m. EDT on July 18, 2026, after getting reports of an unattended death. Until now, the authorities have not released the identity, age or gender of the deceased. In fact, they don't even know the cause of the person's death yet. 

The property was reportedly listed for sale. It is an eight-bedroom, four-bathroom home that can accommodate multiple families. At the same time, Boston Police's spokesperson, John Boyle, said that the incident is being treated as a death investigation. But he said nothing about whether the case is related to Ayanna and Conan.

The couple has maintained their silence on the matter. For those unaware, just a week earlier, Conan was mentioned in the local news regarding a company he is a partner in. The company was selected for a major courthouse construction project in Massachusetts. 

Eventually, the project became the subject of a lawsuit filed by an unsuccessful bidder, although Ayannah was not accused of any wrongdoing. Meanwhile, authorities are investigating the case of a body found at Conna's Boston property, and they might soon share the details with the public.
