Any cause of death yet?

U.S. technology entrepreneur John McAfee hanged himself in his prison cell on Wednesday after the Spanish high court authorised his extradition to the United States on tax evasion charges, his lawyer told Reuters.

...

McAfee still had opportunities to appeal his conviction but could not stand more time in jail, the lawyer Javier Villalba said. "This is the result of a cruel system that had no reason to keep this man in jail for so long," Villalba said.

During a court hearing last month, McAfee said that given his age, he would spend the rest of his life in jail if he were to be convicted in the United States. "I am hoping that the Spanish court will see the injustice of this," he said, adding "the United States wants to use me as an example."

Cant wait to hear the conspiracy theories people come up with.

Hey, I'm just saying...he said that he's going to release a device to prevent government surveillance 8 years ago and now he's found dead in a cell? It sounds a bit too convenient if you ask me...

How's this? He knew he was going to priison so he probably paid off the guards to say he died. No body will be found or at least not his. How's that?

Can't wait for "the camera was not working the day of his suicide".

30 minutes after he died someone on his Instagram posted a picture of the letter Q. (That's real). So is Q now claiming that they murdered him and they left their calling card? That's mine.

Hello,

Mr. McAfee very much lived life on his own terms, and this was very much his way of ensuring that.
 

There are no conspiracies, and he was not crazy, nor was he "suicided."
 

Regards,
