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 mean what caught up with him was the most mundane part, tax evasion and crypto fraud, all the really bizarre and super bad criminal shit was in other countries that if it was gonna catch up with him it was gonna catch up with him there. Genuinely the most logical conclusion, unless there is some reason he would be targeted by people actually powerful enough to kill him in jail that we dont know of, is he saw what kinda jailtime he was facing, realized he was gonna die in jail no matter what and pulled a final big stunt in the process.

      yeah I solidly agree with you. like so many people are saying he knew too much, the fuck did he know? he never knew anybody in power and was some dudes rock boomer acting like an 80s action movie star in his own head with drugs, prostitutes, and fraud. if you're 75 and facing 30 years, why would you want to keep living like you are going to die in that cell and you know it, why face that torment
