An investigation is ongoing in Zanzibar into the death of Ashly Robinson, a 31-year-old US lifestyle influencer, who was found unresponsive in a luxury resort during a trip with her fiancé, Joe McCann, founder of crypto investment firm Asymmetric. Local police have confirmed that Robinson's death was due to suicide, but they are still looking into the circumstances surrounding the incident.
The couple had reportedly argued and were separated by hotel staff before Robinson's body was discovered. McCann, who has an estimated net worth of $45 million, has been questioned by police and has been asked to remain in the country while the investigation continues.
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's company, Asymmetric, has been in the news recently after he announced the shutdown of its Liquid Alpha Fund due to significant financial losses.
