Police have not yet made any arrests and medical examiners have yet to reveal the cause of death. The results of toxicology reports are still pending.
However, an anonymous source close to the 38-year-old HIV scientist’s family has revealed that he is “devastated” at not being able to say goodbye or attend his friend’s funeral – and that he feels is concerned about the unfounded suspicion he believes he is dealing with.
The source said Willis is “very depressed” while the “whole country” is speculating and “accusing him of killing” his friends.

“Not only is the entire country right now accusing him of killing his friends without any factual details, evidence or any charges, but he has also lost three close friends,” the source said. Fox Nation.
“He was unable to say goodbye or attend their funerals due to the circumstances of these wild speculations and accusations.
“No one seems willing to wait for the results of the toxicology report or other police facts from a case still under investigation to make these speculations.”
They further claimed that Willis’ family only learned what happened after local news media contacted them.
The family did not know if Willis was among the fatalities.
They also disputed claims that the scientist told people his friends had frozen to death in his garden after police arrived at his home.
‘What was missing from that story was context. He never said his friends were frozen to death to anyone,” they added.

Loved ones of the dead men have raised questions about the lack of reporting on their bodies, and the snow they say was not deep enough to submerge them.
One of the bodies was found on the back porch of the property by the fiancée of one of the men, who broke in after not receiving a response from Willis.
The other two bodies were found in the backyard. Police initially said there was no foul play, but have yet to confirm the cause of death of the three men

This revelation comes two days after Willis’ father made statements on his behalf on January 26.
“He would never do anything in a million years. These were all good friends of his, these were all people he went to school with and he took them to a Chiefs football game the day before,” he said.
Speak with The New York PostWillis’ father said he would “never in a million years” hurt his friends.
When pressed about inconsistencies in Willis’ story, particularly the fact that one of the bodies was not wearing a jacket when he apparently left his home despite the freezing January weather that night, he said:
“They could have gone there, it was freezing and cold that night. I don’t know how many cars they came in; there were three, and there were only two cars left on the street.
“They could have decided for some reason that they wanted to go back into his house.” People leave the house without a coat all the time, no matter how cold it is, so I can’t answer that statement.
“(Jordan) doesn’t know what happened to them, and he never saw them again the moment they walked to the front door and left his house.”
DailyMail.com has also been able to reveal the ‘fifth man’ in the group photo as Alex Weamer-Lee.
He is a high school friend of the victims whose bodies were discovered two days after the Jan. 7 celebration, but he says he left at midnight after football ended and when everyone was still alive.
Weamer-Lee, who shortens his name to Lee, says he saw them off at 2 a.m. before sleeping on the couch and spending the next two days in the house, thinking nothing of their cars still outside .
Lee, a 37-year-old flooring contractor, lives in a rental house in another part of the city. When DailyMail.com arrived to ask him questions about the fateful night, a man who answered the intercom claimed he was not there and could not talk about January 7.
The man added: “Alex is not here at the moment and he is not fielding media inquiries.”
