Mario Biondo was the husband of popular Spanish TV presenter Raquel Sánchez-Silva and a cameraman from Italy who allegedly died in suspicious circumstances over a decade ago in 2013.

While some people believe it was death by suicide, others claim murder, however, no one knows for sure exactly what transpired on the day of his death. The public were shocked when Biondo was confirmed as dead just a year after he married Sanchez-Silva on May 30 2013.

Despite it being 10 years since his passing, there is still no conclusive evidence as to how the Italian man died - although his parents claim he was murdered after the Italian justice system admitted his death could have been due to a murder and that the scene of the alleged crime had been manipulated to make it look like a suicide. His parents are still fighting the case.
