ATLANTA, GA — The Atlanta Police Department has confirmed the arrest of Audrey Zalky, 21, in Carroll County on charges related to the murder of Leondre Flynt, 21. Flynt was last seen in July leaving his Atlanta home for a date. This development marks the second arrest in the case, with Zalky facing charges of murder and concealing the death of another.

Leondre Flynt disappeared earlier this year, and the investigation revealed he had met Zalky online and was in communication with her before he went missing. Zalky, currently awaiting extradition to Atlanta, was arrested on Friday, according to police statements.

Surveillance footage from the store reportedly shows Destiny Stephens and Audrey Zalky, the two women arrested in connection with Flynt’s murder, exiting Flynt’s car and entering the store.


The surveillance video is said to reveal Stephens and Zalky purchasing a hand saw and bolt cutters, items that could be potentially linked to the crime.

The offense date is recorded as July 29, 2023, with police first becoming aware of the potential murder on August 16, 2023. Destiny Stephens, previously arrested in November in connection with Flynt’s death, is also charged with murder and concealing the death of another. Evidence uncovered during an apartment search by Atlanta police indicated that Flynt was shot and killed on July 29, the last day he was in contact with his family.

Additionally, a third individual, Ahmir Bobo, is suspected of involvement in Flynt’s murder and the concealment of his body.
