John McAfee, the pioneer creator of popular computer antivirus software, has died behind bars in a Spanish prison. He was 75.
McAfee was found dead on Wednesday afternoon in his cell in Brians 2 Prison in Barcelona, with officials saying that the early investigation points to a suicide, the Catalan justice department said, confirming an earlier report from El Mundo newspaper.
It came just hours after a Spanish court approved McAfee's extradition to the United States, where he is wanted on tax-related criminal charges that carry a prison sentence of up to 30 years.
McAfee had been held in Spanish prison since his arrest in October, when the U.S. Justice Department announced charges that McAfee and his supporters insist are politically motivated.
His death caps a wild, controversial life filled with legal issues and foreign adventures, including allegations that McAfee murdered his American neighbor in Belize, which was never proven in court.

First he was quarantined and then deleted. Very fitting.
Well McAfee wasn’t exactly a man I would call stable to begin with. Weird doesn’t quite cover it.
He may have been paranoid but it doesn’t mean he was wrong.
What did they do, put him in the same cell as Jeffrey Epstein?
I'm sorry, 1Old Pro. I'm afraid I can't do that.
I am putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever hope to do.
McAfee had a little lamb....
Well, McCafee was 75 years old. He is of the age where according to Democrat Health expert, Dr. Ezekiel Emmanuel ( brother of Rahm ) he should consider leaving this mortal coil to cease being a burden to society.
More arkanside.

He was involved in a murder so good riddance.
