Two of the people who died on tech tycoon Mike Lynch’s yacht, which capsized and sank off the coast of Sicily on August 19, allegedly died from asphyxiation when they ran out of oxygen in the cabins.
According to a source, Chris Morvillo, a Clifford Chance lawyer, and his wife, Neda, “did not have water in their lungs, trachea, and stomach”.
