TL;DR Summary

An Australian coroner has found that Melissa Caddick, an alleged financial fraudster, is dead, more than two years after her severed foot was found on a beach. The coroner was unable to determine how and why Caddick died, but suggested it was possible she fell from cliffs near her home into the sea with the intention of taking her own life. Caddick used a fraudulent investment scheme to cheat her family and friends out of $13 million to $19 million to fund her "very expensive" lifestyle. The case inspired a hit podcast and TV dramatization, along with hours of speculation by amateur sleuths.
