Italian firefighters found the body of the daughter of British tech tycoon Mike Lynch in the middle of the day on Friday, August 23, the last person missing from the yacht sinking in Sicily on Monday, which left seven people dead in total, including the billionaire. After the discovery of the first body on Monday, that of the ship’s cook, three men and three women were reported missing following the sinking of the Bayesian Monday at dawn off Porticello, near Palermo. The body of Mike Lynch, 59, was recovered Thursday.

This extremely wealthy businessman, nicknamed the “British Bill Gates”celebrated, with his friends, colleagues and lawyers, his acquittal in June in a fraud trial in the United States that could have cost him years in prison. The victims include Jonathan Bloomer, chairman of Morgan Stanley International – a branch of the American bank – and of the insurer Hiscox, along with his wife Judy, and Chris Morvillo, a lawyer who defended Mike Lynch in his trial in the United States, along with his wife Neda.
