The United States has like 60 million illegal immigrants but Guatemala can’t tolerate one US citizen? He should be returned to the United States and not Belize, if anything.

I would have said something about not trusting any “official” governments…. but uh… who’d listen to some guy commenting on a blog and is barely noticed anyhow?

CNN says that McAfee will be sent back to Belize tomorrow. Thought Belize had no extradition treaty with Belize. Maybe illegal enterers are not extradited. Maybe they will deport him to Belize because that is where he lives instead of to the USA. Has his request for asylum been filed?

You are correct.
.
He was born in England and grew up in the US. He has permanent residency in Belize. This was all according to John himself and his bio.
I would assume his passport is for the US. He told his lawyer they had entered without Visas or stamps. Hopefully his lawyer can work the system so he doesn’t have to go back to Belize.

with Permanent Residency in Belize.
Not sure myself.

Ok, all we can hope for is the best from here. I stumbled across the video of his arrest and now I can’t find it again but I was comforted to see he went with calm and there was no drama on the part of the authorities. The only part that was a little disturbing was that the jackets of the authorities that took him away said Interpol and I read it was Immigration that made the arrest. I’m hoping he can maintain some kind of contact with you and we hear from him soon. Thanks for keeping us updated.

Unsure. I believe John has dual citizenship. US/Belize. Don’t quote me on it.

Just wanted to point out, that the bullet that killed Feuil was a 9mm Luger bulletin.

Guess what gun uses that bullet? The Taurus sub machine gun that the GSU uses…
