Body Discovered at Property Owned by Conan Harris, Husband of Rep. Ayanna Pressley

A body was found on July 19, 2026, at a property in Boston owned by Conan Harris, the husband of U.S. Representative Ayanna Pressley. Boston police responded to a call regarding a person at a two-story home in the Mattapan neighborhood and discovered the body inside. The Boston Police homicide unit is investigating the death, but officials have not released the identity of the deceased or a cause of death. No arrests have been made, and it is unclear if foul play is involved. A spokesperson for Pressley stated that the property is a rental and clarified that Pressley is not the landlord. Harris expressed condolences in a Facebook post, stating that his family is safe and extending sympathy to the family of the deceased. The property, purchased by Harris in 2021, is currently listed for sale at $1.15 million and has been on the market for about a month. The couple, married since 2014, does not reside at the property, which has been used as an address for Harris's consulting firm. The scene remained cordoned off as investigators continued their work.
