<div>Im a philanthropist at heart,but never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be doing this for my own family. Please friends, colleagues and friends of friends take the time to read my story, please share. I am so grateful for all the support for the many people out there who believe in justice. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On 12 February 2026, my 41-year-old brother, Marc Isaacson, was found dead in Johannesburg under circumstances that have left our family with many unanswered questions.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I live in the United Kingdom, and as soon as I received the devastating news, I flew to South Africa. When I arrived, I discovered that the funeral had already been arranged for the following day, despite what appeared to be significant irregularities surrounding Marc's death. We have struggled to understand why no autopsy, toxicology testing, or forensic investigation was carried out before his burial. The attending doctor reportedly declined to certify the death as natural after it was established that Marc had been deceased for several hours.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Adding to our distress, Marc's personal belongings—including his phone, laptop, and security cameras—were not immediately returned to our devastated mother. We have also since learned information that has raised further concerns and prompted us to seek independent legal and investigative advice.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Marc was an exceptionally intelligent and entrepreneurial man. At just 23 years old, he helped establish Nigeria's first licensed sports betting operation and the National Lottery. Tragically, his own struggles with gambling later had a devastating impact on his life and finances. He also carried enormous responsibility from a young age after our father passed away when Marc was only 21. Alongside this, he battled mental illness, which made him particularly vulnerable to exploitation.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In the period leading up to his death, Marc had expressed concerns to family members and others that he no longer trusted the person he was living with. He had installed AI-enabled security cameras in his room that recorded to the cloud because he felt uneasy. We have been given explanations as to why no footage is available, but these explanations have only added to our concerns. We also understand that Marc had recently had a serious disagreement involving allegations of theft. At this stage, because legal proceedings may follow, I cannot disclose everything that has come to light.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As a grieving family, we are not asking anyone to presume guilt. We are simply asking for the opportunity to establish the truth through a proper investigation. After consulting experienced private investigators, legal professionals, and CAP (similar to Shomrim in London), we believe the next critical step is to apply for the exhumation of Marc's body so that an independent forensic examination can finally be carried out.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is an expensive process. We need to raise R250,000 (approximately £11,500) to cover the costs of the exhumation, an independent forensic pathologist, legal representation, specialist investigators, and other essential expert services.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation will be held securely in the trust account of criminal advocate Daniel Witz. No member of our family will personally benefit from these funds. If the fundraising target is not reached within five weeks, donations will be refunded in accordance with the trust account arrangements (anonymous donors should include their banking details to enable any refund if necessary).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This appeal is not only about my brother. If our concerns are well-founded, establishing the facts could help protect others in the future. Right now, however, our focus is simple: finding out what really happened to Marc.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Marc leaves behind a daughter who deserves answers. Our family deserves answers. Most importantly, Marc deserves dignity, truth, and justice.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I have chosen to make this public because, despite being a very private person, I can no longer stay silent. My family has endured unimaginable hardship over the past two decades, and asking for help from the public is one of the hardest things I have ever done. But we believe we owe it to Marc to pursue every possible avenue while there is still time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We have assembled a highly respected legal team and experienced investigators who believe there are sufficient concerns to warrant further investigation. They would not encourage us to take this difficult and very public step if they did not believe there was a legitimate basis to seek the truth.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you know me, know my family, or simply believe that every person deserves a proper investigation into unexplained circumstances surrounding their death, I ask you to help in whatever way you can. Whether you are able to donate, share this appeal, or simply keep us in your thoughts, your support means more than words can express.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Marc was a generous, kind, and loving man. Whenever he had something to give, he gave freely to others. He did not deserve to die with so many unanswered questions.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>From the bottom of my heart, thank you for taking the time to read our story. Thank you for standing with us in our search for the truth. Together, we hope to give Marc the justice he deserves and, if necessary, help prevent another family from suffering the same unimaginable loss. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you would like to talk to Mani or Daniel Witz regarding payments please wa Daniel on +27 82 [phone redacted]. We will keep you up to date weekly on a friday to see where we at. Their details are attached. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With so much gratitude 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Justine Connelly and the Isaacson family 
</div>
