    Default Gringo: The Dangerous Life of John McAfee



    Mysteries abound in the life of John McAfee. He made millions creating antivirus software, then reinvented himself as a yogi, a proponent of herbal medicine, and a serial entrepreneur. He was known for his charm and generosity. Then his life took another turn. He moved from the US to Belize and built a heavily armed compound in the jungle, like a modern day Heart of Darkness. McAfee never shied away from media attention and boasted of his libertine lifestyle, maintaining a harem of young women. In 2012 his neighbour in Belize, an American named Gregory Faull, was found murdered by a gunshot. Sought for questioning by local authorities, McAfee fled to Guatemala, then returned to the US where he pursued the Libertarian Party nomination for President in 2016. Over the years, journalists have told pieces of McAfee’s story (including the infamous Vice report accidentally revealing his secret location)

    One very very weird story that you would believe could only be written by Steven King as a work of fiction, not the biography of a real living person !!!!

    Dont you wish he had been more involved in the forth coming US elections as a contender against 'the Donald (Trump)' and Hillary Clinton...........???
    I stand unequivicably behind everything I say , I just dont ever remember saying it !!

    Well, i consider the Sheboons were lieing, and they were on the Payroll of the Film Maker, as she obviously had issues with McAfee and his threats to her.
    Perhaps her poetic way at getting back at him, especially to undermine any Political Career or Future Business ventures.
