Authorities have found Jelani Day’s missing phone.
Officials say the phone is now going through forensic analysis and hopes the results can lead them closer to finding out what happened to Jelani Day.
Jelani Day’s missing phone
The forensic analysis could include Day’s location, movement, calls placed or received from people, and the content of those calls, social media, or texts as examples.
According to Day’s mother, the phone was found October 17th near an exit along the side of an interstate by Bloomington by a man who was repositioning a mattress on his truck.
Day’s car, clothing, wallet and body were found in four separate locations.
His car had been hidden on a wooded trail off a residential street in Peru, Illinois.
Jelani Day’s family says he did not have friends and had never been to Peru, which is 60 miles from the ISU campus.
Jelani Day’s disappearance
Day was a graduate student at Illinois State University in Bloomington when he disappeared at the end of August.
His body was identified weeks later, having been pulled from the Illinois River.
Death circumstances
His mother is certain foul play was involved in her son’s death.
The Reverend Jesse Jackson, who led a protest march in Peru last month, said Day had been in the company of some white girls the previous night, adding that two of the girls had hired lawyers.
He was last seen on video cameras at a cannabis dispensary in Bloomington on the morning of August 24th.
According to authorities, Day’s autopsy showed no signs of injury, assault, altercations, gunfire or drug intoxication.
Jelani Day was 25 years old.
