Antivirus pioneer John McAfee is on the run from murder charges, Belize
police say. According to Marco Vidal, head of the national police
force's Gang Suppression Unit, McAfee is a prime suspect in the murder
of American expatriate Gregory Faull, who was gunned down Saturday night
at his home in San Pedro Town on the island of Ambergris Caye.

Details remain sketchy so far, but residents say that Faull was a
well-liked builder who hailed originally from California Florida. The
two men had been at odds for some time. Last Wednesday, Faull filed a
formal complaint against McAfee with the mayor's office, asserting that
McAfee had fired off guns and exhibited "roguish behavior." Their final
disagreement apparently involved dogs.

Here is the official police statement:

=====================
On Sunday the 11th November, 2012 at 8:00am acting upon information
received, San Pedro Police visited 5 ¾ miles North of San Pedro Town
where they saw 52 year old U.S National Mr. GREGORY VIANT FAULL, of the
said address, lying face up in a pool of blood with an apparent gunshot
wound on the upper rear part of his head apparently dead. Initial
investigation revealed that on the said date at 7:20am LUARA TUN,
39years, Belizean Housekeeper of Boca Del Rio Area, San Pedro Town went
to the house of Mr. Faull to do her daily chores when she saw him laying
inside of the hall motionless, Faull was last seen alive around 10:00pm
on 10.11.12 and he lived alone.

No signs of forced entry was seen, A (1) laptop computer brand and
serial number unknown and (1) I-Phone was discovered missing. The body
was found in the hall of the upper flat of the house. A single luger
brand 9 mm expended shells was found at the first stairs leading up to
the upper flat of the building. The body of Faull was taken to KHMH
Morgue where it awaits a Post Mortem Examination. Police have not
established a motive so far but are following several leads.
====================

As we reported last week, McAfee has become increasingly estranged from
his fellow expatriates in recent years. His behavior has become
increasingly erratic, and by his own admission he had begun associating
with some of the most notorious gangsters in Belize.

Since our piece ran on last week, several readers have come forward with
additional information that sheds light on the change in McAfee's
behavior. In July of 2010, shortly before Allison Adonizio pulled the
plug on their quorum-sensing project and fled the country, McAfee began
posting on a drug-focused Russian-hosted message board called Bluelight
about his attempts to purify the psychoactive compounds colloquially
known as "bath salts."

Writing under the name "stuffmonger," a handle he has used on other
online message boards, McAfee posted more than 200 times over the next
nine months about his ongoing quest to purify psychoactive drugs from
compounds commercially available over the internet. "I'm a huge fan of
MDPV," he wrote. "I think it's the finest drug ever conceived, not just
for the indescribable hypersexuality, but also for the smooth euphoria
and mild comedown."

Elsewhere, he described his pursuit of "super perv powder" and warned
about the dangers of handling the freebase version of the drug: "I had
visual and auditory hallucinations and the worst paranoia of my life."
He recommended that the most effective way to take a dose is via rectal
insertion, a procedure known as "plugging," writing: "Measure your dose,
apply a small amount of saliva to just the tip of your middle finger,
press it against the dose, insert. Doesn't really hurt as much as it
sounds. We're in an arena (drugs/libido) that I navigate as well as
anyone on the planet here. If you take my advice about this (may sound
gross to some of you perhaps), you will be well rewarded."
