ATLANTA — One of the men charged with murder after a 24-year-old Atlanta woman vanished last summer will remain in jail.
Allahnia Lenoir was last seen at the Peachtree Midtown Apartments located at 1600 Peachtree St. on July 30, 2022.
In September, Atlanta police announced that they had made an arrest and believed Lenoir had been killed inside a unit at the Peachtree Midtown Apartments and her body had been disposed of.

Jail records show Diante Reynolds was booked into the Fulton County Jail on September 9.
Reynolds was scheduled to appear in a Fulton County courtroom on Thursday for a bond hearing. Judge Jane Barwick denied Reynolds bond, saying he will have to remain in jail because she believes he poses a flight risk and could be a danger to others.
He is charged with murder, concealing death of another, financial identity fraud, forgery in the first degree, tampering with evidence and possession of controlled substance in schedule I or II with intent to distribute.
