Introduction – June 24, 2021

It’s another example of why the mainstream media should no longer be trusted. Software entrepreneur John McAfee was found dead in his cell in Spain where he was being held on tax evasion charges prior to being extradited to the U.S.

The mainstream media reported McAfee’s death as “suicide” but a series of emails sent by McAfee prior to his death suggest otherwise.

As with so many other news stories, if it threatens to embarrass or tarnish the reputation of the powers that be, the media suddenly goes silent, or starts censoring itself, as in this case.

The Guardian, below, and all the other mainstream media, have not mentioned the above emails. Why not? I’m not going to speculate as to who wanted to silence McAfee or why. But someone is obviously trying to hide some damaging information and we may hear more about this in the coming days. Though we are unlikely to hear the actual details from the mainstream media. Ed.

John McAfee: antivirus entrepreneur found dead in Spanish prison

Sam Jones, Kari Paul — The Guardian June 23, 2021

The antivirus software entrepreneur John McAfee has been found dead in his cell in Spain from an apparent suicide, hours after the country’s highest court approved his extradition to the United States, where he was wanted on tax-related criminal charges that carry a prison sentence of up to 30 years.

Catalonia’s regional police force, the Mossos d’Esquadra, confirmed a report in El País that McAfee, 75, had been found dead in the Brians 2 prison near Barcelona, late on Wednesday.

In a statement, the Catalan justice department said that prison officers and medics had tried to save the life of a 75-year-old man but had been unsuccessful.

“Judicial staff have been dispatched to the prison and are investigating the causes of death,” the statement said, adding: “Everything points to death by suicide.”

McAfee’s lawyer told the Reuters news agency on Wednesday evening that McAfee had apparently hanged himself in his prison cell.

Tax offenses

McAfee, the creator of the McAfee virus software, was arrested last October at Barcelona’s international airport as he was about to board a flight to Istanbul.

Who Would Want McAfee Silenced and Why?

The mainstream media obviously aren’t going to answer those questions but an answer may be found in this article:

McCaffee is scamming web sites for ransom money

According to Jim Stone, McAfee was blacklisting websites that posted material embarrassing to the Powers That Be. The only way to avoid being blacklisted was to pay what amounted to protection money to McAfee.

Was John McAfee about to expose this scam and reveal the criminality of the powers that be? Is this why they silenced him?
