Tanzanian authorities are investigating the death of Ashly Robinson, a U.S. social media influencer, who was found unresponsive in a luxury resort in Zanzibar.
Her fiancé, Joe McCann, founder of the crypto investment firm Asymmetric, is being questioned by the police. The couple had been celebrating Robinson's birthday and their recent engagement at the resort when they got into a heated argument, according to hotel staff.
Despite the police initially confirming that Robinson died by suicide, they have not ruled out other possibilities and are still investigating the incident. McCann's passport has been withheld, and he has been asked to remain in the country until the investigation is complete.
Robinson's family has expressed doubts about the official cause of death and has set up a fundraising page to cover travel and other expenses. McCann, who has an estimated net worth of $45 million, is a prominent figure in the crypto industry, but his firm has faced financial difficulties in recent months. The U.S.
State Department has offered its condolences to the family but has declined to comment further on the investigation.
