NYC grandmother found dead near Las Vegas airport

Alisa Goods, a 63-year-old grandmother from New York City, was found dead near Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas after disappearing on August 8 while visiting a friend. Police say surveillance shows she fell down an embankment near Wayne Newton Boulevard and collapsed, with her body not visible from nearby roadways. Investigators have not released a cause of death or named any persons of interest, though detectives are actively looking into the circumstances, including suspicious text messages sent from her phone requesting money and Bitcoin. Goods’ family expressed profound grief and noted their search efforts, with relatives saying a long-time friend who aided in the search has been ruled out as a suspect. The case remains under investigation as authorities and the family seek answers about what happened during her Vegas visit. Goods’ niece and daughter arrived from out of state to assist with the family’s search and to support the ongoing inquiry.
