Famous UFO truther sent his mother a threatening text message before he was found dead

A UFO truther sent his mother a harrowing text message just days before his “natural death.”

Maxwell Bates-Spiers from Canterbury, England, flew to Poland in July 2016 to speak at an environmental conference. When he returned to a friend’s house, he eventually met his end after vomiting a “dark liquid.”

But it was the ominous text message that the journalist, who experimented with conspiracy theories, sent to his mother shortly before his death that sends a shiver down your spine.

At the time of his death, the 39-year-old was living in Monika Duval’s house in Warsaw.

According to Duval, who gave evidence to coroner Christopher Sutton-Mattocks at the UK inquest into Maxwell, he took about ten tablets of a Turkish form of Xanax – a powerful sedative used to treat anxiety and panic disorders.

She explained that he bought the drugs while on holiday in Cyprus, where they are available without a prescription.

But not long after taking it, he vomited a dark liquid and stopped breathing.

When paramedics reached Duval’s house, they called the police and two officers arrived.

Following a three-day inquest into Maxwell’s death, Sutton-Mattocks described officers investigating Maxwell’s death as “completely incompetent” after it emerged that they had abandoned their initial investigation.

During the investigation, it became known that the Polish police decided not to continue the investigation after a doctor stated that the accused had died of natural causes.

However, a coroner later determined that his death was due to drug poisoning and pneumonia.

There was much criticism of the investigation into his death; his mother feared he might have been murdered.

During the hearing, Vanessa Bates said her son had sent her a text message shortly before his death.

The message allegedly read: “If anything happens to me, follow up and investigate.”

At the inquest, she added: “He even said, ‘I think I might be murdered.'”

But Sutton-Mattocks added: “Max was a conspiracy theorist, and a well-known one at that. If there was anything that was bound to attract the interest of other conspiracy theorists, it was the totally incompetent initial investigation into his death.”

The medical examiner concluded that the pneumonia and drugs had “caused aspiration of stomach contents,” and an autopsy found that there were lethal amounts of the opioid oxycodone in his system.
