An investigation is ongoing in Tanzania into the death of Ashly Robinson, a US social media influencer, whose fiancé, Joe McCann, a prominent crypto investment firm founder, is being questioned by authorities. Robinson, 31, was found unresponsive in a luxury resort villa in Zanzibar, where the couple was celebrating her birthday and recent engagement. Despite police confirming her death as a suicide, they are still investigating the circumstances surrounding her passing, which occurred after a heated dispute between the couple.
The hotel staff had separated the pair twice before Robinson's death. McCann, with an estimated net worth of $45 million, has been asked to remain in the country while police await the results of Robinson's autopsy. 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 crypto investment firm, Asymmetric, has been in the news recently after he announced the shutdown of its Liquid Alpha Fund due to significant financial losses.
