An inquiry has been launched into the death of Ashly Robinson, a 31-year-old lifestyle influencer from Miami, who was found unresponsive in a luxury villa in Zanzibar. Her fiancé, Joe McCann, the founder of crypto investment firm Asymmetric, is being questioned by the authorities.
According to reports, the couple had a heated argument before being separated by hotel staff, with Robinson later being found dead. Despite the initial confirmation of her death as a suicide, the police are still investigating and have withheld McCann's passport. The hotel has expressed its condolences and is cooperating with the authorities. Robinson's family has set up a fundraising page, expressing doubts about the official cause of death.
McCann, who has an estimated net worth of $45 million, has been a prominent figure in the crypto industry, but recently announced the closure of his Liquid Alpha Fund due to significant financial losses.
