A Florida businessman accused of kidnapping and killing his wife as the estranged couple was fighting over millions of dollars was found in his cell from an apparent suicide Monday, his lawyer said.

David Knezevich, 37, was federally charged with the murder of his wife Ana Hedao Knezevich – though her body has never been found — after she moved to Spain last year.

The Federal Bureau of Prisons said the Fort Lauderdale resident was found unresponsive in his South Florida cell before 8 a.m., leading to life-saving measures that were not successful.

Knezevich’s lawyer, Jayne Weintraub, said her client was found dead in his cell, but offered few details.

“The defense team is devastated to learn of this news,” Weintraub said.

“We sincerely hope that an appropriate and prompt investigation will be conducted.”

Ana Knezevich, who was Colombian-American, went missing just weeks after she moved to Spain in February 2024, sparking international attention.

Security footage captured a man wearing a motorcycle helmet entering her apartment and turning off the surveillance camera before her disappearance, and prosecutors believe that man was her estranged spouse.

Knezevich was also seen on another security camera inside a Madrid hardware store the same day his wife vanished.

He initially reached Serbia and then trekked to Spain to target his wife, according to the feds.

The businessman owned a tech company as well as millions of dollars in Sunshine State real estate with his wife, which they purchased during their 13 years together, the Miami Herald reported.

But the sprawling property portfolio was the center of a legal fight between the two as Ana Knezevich left the states for Spain in December 2023, the newspaper reported.

Her estranged husband sold seven residential properties in Broward County between December 2023 and February 2024 to the tune of $6.7 million, prosecutors reportedly said.

Weintraub has said the break-up was amicable and financial issues were being sorted out.
