How The Death Of These Crypto Founders Happened

He allegedly posted a tweet alleging that the CIA and the Israeli Intelligence agency Mossad would eventually kill him. The reason was that he raised an alarm on a pedophilia-blackmail operation that they were allegedly running out of the Caribbean.
The tweet dated October 28, was posted at 4:57 a.m. Mushegian said,
“CIA and Mossad and pedo elite are running some kind of sex trafficking entrapment blackmail ring out of Puerto Rico and Caribbean Islands. They are going to frame me with a laptop planted by an ex (girlfriend) who was a spy. They will torture me to death.”
A few hours later, after he reportedly left his $6 million home in San Juan, he was found dead in what authorities say was an apparent drowning. This was shortly after 9:00 a.m.
According to New York Post, the officials found his corpse floating off a beach by the surfer. His mysterious death has sparked a lot of reactions all over the internet as his wallet was still on him at the time he was found.
