Will Belize be seeing more of John McAfee in the future? That’s anybody’s guess, but what is for sure right now is that McAfee has been out of the country for a few weeks and after being detained in neighboring Guatemala after seeking asylum there, he now finds himself back home in the United States.
After a long, crazy and month-long drama, reports indicate that John McAfee is in the South Beach area of Miami. McAfee’s return to the United States marks the culmination of him being on the run after police in here in San Pedro, Belize announced that he was a person of interest the November killing of Gregory Viant Faull, who lived near McAfee’s home on the island.
To this date, McAfee still denies any involvement in Faull’s death and insists that he fears for his life in the hands of Belizean authorities. He fled from San Pedro, Ambergris Caye to Guatemala where he was arrested for illegally entering the country, leading to his deportation.
International media crews arrived in San Pedro once again on Wednesday, December 12, 2012, hoping to catch a ‘deported’ McAfee but his flight was for back home to USA
But he was not deported back to Belize where he was fleeing from; he finds himself back home in America. An FBI spokesman in Miami told the media that the agency is not involved with McAfee’s return to the United States. Authorities from US Customs and Border Protection, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the US Marshals office and the US attorney’s office said there was no active arrest warrant for McAfee that would justify taking him into custody.
On his website he indicates that he has no phone, no money and no contact information. McAfee was previously quoted as saying that he wanted to return to the United States and “settle down to whatever normal life” he can.
“I simply would like to live comfortably day by day, fish, swim, enjoy my declining years,” he said.
With a few properties in Belize, and even business investments, it is still unknown if McAfee will be back in the country where he is still wanted for questioning.
