John McAfee was a real g, by that I mean he raped several women, killed a man, scammed millions of people with his god awful virus software, and was a prominent member of the (libertarian) party. Was he killed like Jeffery Epstein, yes. John McAfee knew too much and they killed him for it. That does not mean he was a good person or his death is a tragedy. Sure it would of been nice if he talked and incriminated other people but what then after that? Personally it would of been good if he died after that.

    I flat out don't think he was epsteined, I don't think he particularly knew anything about anyone powerful enough to get him in jail in a situation like this. The US was just approved to extradite him so its fucking dogshit stupid for them to have touched him and the charges were all related to either tax evasion or crypto fraud.

    The only other thing we actually know he was in trouble for was the suspicion of being associated with the murder, but that was 7 years ago and not something the US seemed interested in, whoever decided to let him walk around and sit in jails for 7 years holding on to some grand murder secret is a fucking idiot if there actually is such a conspiracy.

    The only real reason to suspect him of not having killed himself is him making publicity statements for years about this bullshit even when there was nothing to suggest he was ever in danger of being killed, the guy is a famous glory hound who got his kicks from making outrageous statements so everyone kept their attention on him, I dont see any reason to think this isnt just the climax of that shit where he leaves a dumb mystery for internet idiots to obsess over for years as a final joke.

      Yeah he seems like a better burn out than fade away type that wouldn’t want to sit in a US prison for any significant amount of time.

        He loves doing that shit, back when he tried to be a drug lord in Belize he had looooads of pictures of him and various buff guys with guns as well as an entourage of prostitutes, its a big show.
