Rolling Stones Stars’ ‘Accidental’ Death Called Into Question by Unearthed Statement
Brian Jones was found dead in a swimming pool in 1969 but questions around his death linger BBC NEWS 19 JUL 2023 ![]() The Rolling Stones, in a vintage car 1964. From left to right Brian Jones, Mick Jagger, Bill Wyman, Charlie Watts and Keith Richards. A previously-unseen witness statement has cast doubt on the investigation into Brian Jones’ death. The Rolling Stones musician was found dead in his swimming pool in 1969 aged 27, with a coroner recording a death by misadventure, saying he had drowned while ‘under the influence of alcohol and drugs’. However, the family of cab driver Joan Fitzsimons – who had been at the guitarist’s house on the night he died – told cops they were convinced she had been attacked days later because of her belief then-boyfriend Frank Thorogood, a bodyguard to the star, had been involved in the tragedy. Three weeks after Brian died, Joan was found unconscious in the back of her car, blinded in both eyes, with a fractured skull and three front teeth missing, and her brother John Russell told police investigating the attack that she was ‘frightened’ of Frank and believed there was more to Brian’s death than the official verdict. The statement – which was placed inside the National Archives with an order it remain closed until 2014 – has been released under a Freedom of Information request and in it, John recounted a conversation he had had with his sister just days before she was attacked. According to the Sunday Telegraph newspaper, he said: ‘She said that she was frightened of Frank and she started talking about the death of Brian Jones. A previously-unseen witness statement has cast doubt on the investigation into Jones’ death ![]() English guitarist and member of The Rolling Stones, Brian Jones (1942-1969) in a dressing room in 1963. A coroner recorded a death by misadventure, saying Jones had drowned while ‘under the influence of alcohol and drugs’ ‘She had been over at his house that night just before he died and she thought that he [Jones] was quite able to look after himself. ‘She said that things hadn’t finished there yet and if it got out that she thought this, then she would be the next one.’ John said Joan planned to go to the press about Brian’s death. He added: ‘We then went on and talked about it and I told her to be careful.’ In 1994, Albert Evans – the junior policeman who was first on the scene – described the investigation into the rocker’s death as ‘most unsatisfactory’ The siblings’ mother, Irene Russell, told cops Frank had turned up at the family home days before the attack demanding to know where her daughter was.
