Ashlee Jenae's exact date of death is not known; however, reports suggest that she passed away one or more days after April 5, 2026. After the details of her passing surfaced, curiosity regarding her fiancé, Joe McCann's current whereabouts was sparked. On April 14, two days after Ashlee's death news broke, Tanzania Times reported that Joe was detained in Zanzibar. Her friend, Savannah Britt, expressed her doubts about the arrest news, pointing to Joe's profile photo update on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram. According to her, he wouldn't have been able to focus on their social media if he had been behind bars.

According to Savannah, Joe McCann's current display picture was "less creepy" than the earlier one. He claimed that it was his PR move to seem like a decent man, incapable of being involved in his fianceé, Ashlee Jenae's death. For the unversed, his previous profile pic included a close-up of his face, covered partially with a piece of cloth. Interestingly, around the same time, netizens observed that Joe's ex-wife, Shea Jackson also allegedly changed her Instagram profile picture, as shared by a commenter. The similar social media activities of the ex-spouses amid Ashlee's unnatural passing raised eyebrows.

Many alleged that Joe McCann wanted Ashlee dead and thus, the incident didn't affect him. One of the X users commented, "WTH.... Why are you not heartbroken, crying in bed being depressed not able to take a shower or eat.... Why are you on twitter??? Doing business?"
