Mohamed Coulibaly dies at 24 as police examine his pool death and athletes seek answers about more than $1 million in losses. Mohamed Coulibaly’s unexplained death in a South Jersey swimming pool has renewed scrutiny of an alleged million-dollar investment operation aimed at athletes. The death came weeks after a Barron’s investigation alleged Coulibaly persuaded athletes to buy stakes in Shopify stores that appeared more successful than reality. Barron’s reported three former NFL players claimed combined losses above $1 million, including Tae Crowder’s entire $500,000 savings. That distinction matters because YG and other people merely named in the materials were not accused of participating in Coulibaly’s alleged conduct.
