The mother of a 35-year-old Brit that was found dead in Spain has pushed authorities for answers.

Sandra Adams' son, Brett Dryden, was found with a four-inch gash to his head in the town of Mojacar, Andalusia, Spain.

Brett ran a legal cannabis club in the area for five years, The Dawg House, before his untimely death.

Local authorities concluded that the Brit had died of natural causes, though his mother has continued to urge police to investigate the case further, as she believes there is a darker truth behind it all.

A heartbroken Sandra believes that the father-of-one was killed, as his friends alleged that police officers told them at first that Brett was the victim of a 'violent murder' following an axe attack.

Brett was found dead in his resort home on 22 July 2024, located on the Costa Almeria, with a post-mortem revealing that there was a blood clot in his lungs, known medically as a pulmonary embolism.

His passing was then drawn down to the blood clot, as there has been no mention of an attack on Brett from officials since this discovery.

However, Sandra thinks that this decision may have been too hasty, and claims that there may be a larger problem in Spain.

Speaking on the week of what would have been her son's 36th birthday, she said to The Mirror: "People stopped us [in Spain] and asked us what had happened and there were still quite a lot of people who didn’t know.

"One of Brett’s neighbours pulled us and said ‘it’s disgusting. They’re clearly trying to cover something up."

Reflecting on being back in Brett's home town, Sandra described it as 'soul destroying', and claimed that she was trying to speak with authorities about the case.

However, she claimed that they refused to answer questions about his death and that she should call if there are any issues.

Sandra and her husband had planned to carry out a protest in Spain, as they have several friends and family living there, though police said that without authorisation, this would be illegal.

Despite her criticisms, Sandra praised the captain of local police in Mojacar for being compassionate towards the family, as the case is still ongoing.

Police have not publicly commented on the investigation, though a court spokesperson had previously said: "The investigation hasn’t been suspended or closed.

"It is still open and this incident remains under investigation."

It is believed that authorities are still waiting to receive the full report from the Spanish Civil Guard.

Sandra believes that a number of events that took place around her son's death suggest that other people were involved.

Neighbours claimed they had footage of three men running from Brett's home on that fateful night, while the mother says she got a call from her son's phone just hours after his apparent death.

She added that after tracking the phone, its location changed across several locations around the country, though when she flagged this to police, Sandra was told to 'take a step back' to allow official proceedings to continue.

While the family carried out an autopsy on the body back in the UK, results came back inconclusive.

LADbible has reached out to Mojacar Police for a comment.
