Mike Adams, a criminology professor and longtime conservative columnist, was found dead at his home, a little more than a week after the University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW) agreed to pay $504,000 for his resignation.
According to the New Hanover County Sheriff’s Office, deputies on Thursday afternoon responded to a wellness check at Adams’s home in Wilmington, where they found Adams deceased. No additional information has yet been released, including the possible cause of death.
The Office of University Relations at UNCW released a statement on Thursday night, confirming Adam’s death. Adams had been teaching at UNCW since 1993 until he was set to resign at the end of this month as part of a $504,000 settlement with the university.
The settlement came as Adams was facing growing criticism for a series of Twitter posts, particularly one in which he compared Democratic Gov.
