ShareOn December 16, video surveillance taken from the motel shows a man and a woman - wearing hooded jackets - getting dropped off in a Ford F150 Lyft truck.
The pair are seen knocking on the door, someone on the other side opens the door - the couple enter in the same room Fiamahn was found in, court records reveal.
Around 10.50pm, a man and woman - with their heads down and faces covered - leave the room.
Court documents state 'the man appeared to have something in his pants keeping him from moving in a normal manner,' the news outlet reported.
The pair are then seen leaving in a Lyft vehicle - a Kia Optima. Both Lyft vehicles and the rides were traced back to Duron's father's phone number.
According to court documents, cellphone records show Duron was near the motel at the time of the murder.
Duron gave a voluntary statement to police - that was made available in court documents on Tuesday - but investigators said in those documents she gave partial truths and lied several times in her statement.
It was still unclear which of Duron's statements were considered false by authorities, and how that was determined.
There was no further information provided on Duron's alleged boyfriend, according to Harris County District Attorney's Office.

A GoFundMe has been created by a family member of Fiamahn to help with funeral expenses.
'Tyrone was a very energetic individual since he was a child. His smile would stretch from ear to ear leaving you no choice but to smile back and even laugh.
'A smart, outgoing and courageous person; Tyrone never seemed to ever be bothered by his surroundings no matter the situation or condition, he always made the best of what he had,' they wrote.
'He cared for his family and friends dearly. Sadly his life was cut short in the most tragic way one could imagine.
'He had a bright future ahead of him with his family right behind. Unfortunately, we will not get to see our brother, our cousin, or our friend graduate from high school or achieve any of his life goals,' they said.
As of Wednesday, nearly $2,000 has been raised towards their goal of $20,000.
