I believe there is probable cause to charge the defendant with these charges because:
On June 20, 2019, Salt Lake City Police Department was notified of a missing person investigation for Mackenzie
Lueck. Investigations confirmed that on June 17, 2019, Mackenzie departed a plane at the Salt Lake City Airport
at approximately 0200 hours. Mackenzie obtained a ride via transport services to the destination of Hatch Park,
located in North Salt Lake City. Mackenzie was dropped off by the transport services at Hatch Park, where
another individual met with her. Mackenzie left the park with this individual at approximately 0300 hours on
June 17, 2019.

Investigations were conducted on Mackenzie's phone records, social media and other communications, which
showed that all communications ceased from Mackenzie at 0300 on June 17, 2019. Investigations into
Mackenzie's phone showed that communications and data ceased at the time of June 17, 2019 at approximately
0300 hours.

Investigations of Mackenzie's phone records show that her last communications were with Ayoola Adisa Ajayi. In
an interview with Ayoola he admitted to having text conversations with Mackenzie on June 16, 2019 at
approximately 1800 hours, but nothing after this time. Ayoola stated that he did not know what Mackenzie
looked like and denied having seen a photo or online profile of Mackenzie, despite investigations that the means
of which he communicated with her displayed a several photos of her and profile photo. Ayoola denied any
personal contact with Mackenzie or meeting with her at any time.

Investigations of Ayoola's and Mackenzie's phone records show the location of Mackenzie's and Ayoola's phones
to be at the location of Hatch Park within less than a minute of each other and at the same time of Mackenzie's
phone no longer receiving any further data or location on June 17, 2019 at approximately 0300 hours.

In speaking with Mackenzie's family members and close friends, it is highly unusual and suspect that Mackenzie
would not have any communication or social media activity, despite multiple attempts to contact her by them,
and by law enforcement.

During a search warrant on Ayoola's residence and property on June 26, 2019, Ayoola's neighbors informed
Detectives that they observed Ayoola burning something in his backyard with the use of gasonline on the dates
of June 17, 2019 and June 18, 2019. The search warrant resulted in the findings of a fresh dig area on Ayoola's
property, which is the same area that Ayoola was reported burning something.
A forensic excavation of the burn area was conducted which resulted in the finding of several charred items that
were consistent with personal items of Mackenzie Lueck. Other charred material was located, which has now
forensically been determined to be female human tissue.

A DNA profile of that human tissue was obtained during forensic testing by the Utah State Lab. That DNA profile
was compared and is consistent with a DNA profile obtained through further forensic testing of personal items of
Mackenzie Lueck.

I believe these to be additional condition(s) for continued detention:

The person would constitute a substantial danger to any other person or to the community, or is likely to flee the
jurisdiction of the court
Investigations have shown that the Ayoola Ajayi has committed an Aggravated Kidnapping, Aggravated Murder,
and Desecration of a Human Body. He clearly shows a substantial danger to any other person or to the
community and due to the charges is likely to flee the jurisdiction of the court if released.
