Tanzanian authorities are investigating the alleged suicide of Ashly Robinson, a 31-year-old US lifestyle influencer, who was found unresponsive at a luxury resort in Zanzibar. Her fiancé, Joe McCann, founder of crypto investment firm Asymmetric, is being probed in connection with her death. The couple had been celebrating Robinson's birthday and recent engagement at the Zuri Zanzibar resort when they got into a heated argument, according to hotel staff. Despite confirming Robinson's death as a suicide, police are still investigating the circumstances surrounding her death 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 GoFundMe 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 shutdown of his hedge fund due to significant financial losses.
