Whitney died in 2005, just days after Christmas. She was 19 when she lost her battle with Leukemia, and her dad kept Whitney\u2019s ashes in a box, inside of her favorite pink purse, in his room.<\/p>\n<p>With the help of witnesses, Franklin Police Flex Unit Officers developed evidence pointing to Jwyanza Weaver and Christopher Gengler as the suspects in the case. The men, both whom are convicted felons, are now in custody. Weaver was out of jail on probation at the time of this offense.<\/p>\n<p>Following their burglary of the Tuck residence, the two drove to a Shell Station on Murfreesboro Road in Franklin, where Gengler threw the purse containing Whitney\u2019s ashes into the trash.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re just devastated by this,\u201d said Tuck. \u201cOur home was violated, and Whitney\u2019s ashes, inside her favorite pink purse, were stolen from my room. I\u2019m heartbroken, and just want her home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whitney\u2019s stolen ashes were in a matte black wooden box inside of the stolen pink purse. The box holding Whitney\u2019s ashes is 8.5 x 11 inches, and about two inches tall. A second box, with the name \u201cDuchess\u201d engraved on the top of it contains the remains of Whitney\u2019s puppy that died a short time after her.<\/p>\n<p>Despite an exhaustive search of several dumpsters, officers have not been able to locate the discarded remains of Whitney Tuck, her dog Duchess, or Whitney\u2019s favorite pink purse. Police are asking anyone who may have information on the whereabouts of Whitney\u2019s purse or her remains to call Franklin Police at (615) 794-2513.<\/p>\n<p>Chief Deborah Faulkner commended the Department\u2019s Flex Team for their quick work to identify and arrest the suspects. She had this to say about the missing purse that contains Whitney\u2019s ashes: \u201cSomeone out there knows where this purse is or will, at some point, come across it. For the family\u2019s sake, all we want is Whitney\u2019s ashes back, no questions asked. Drop them off at a police station, a fire station, or anywhere else someone will find them and call us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/breaking911.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/jwyanza-khary-weaver.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72378\" src=\"https:\/\/breaking911.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/jwyanza-khary-weaver.jpg\" alt=\"jwyanza-khary-weaver\" width=\"268\" height=\"298\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/breaking911.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/christopher-michael-gengler.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72379\" src=\"https:\/\/breaking911.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/christopher-michael-gengler.jpg\" alt=\"christopher-michael-gengler\" width=\"268\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Gengler and Weaver, charged with Aggravated Burglary and Theft, are being held in the Williamson County Jail on $12,500 bonds.
