The Judge

My lawyer just brought a judge to the jail and the judge issued a stay order until a higher judge can review the case.  This effectively stops Immigration from returning me to the Belize border.

So….. the urgency is eased a bit.

    This reminds me of a time when one country jailed a group of hackers…. called Anonymous.

    In times like this, Anonymous would undoubtedly use it’s power to reveal the corruption that dwells within our governments.

    It’s sad. I wish Anonymous was around to help you like when they collectively tarnished the image of Statfor.

    There’s not much most of us, your supporters can do for you but keep glued to our computers and know to stay away from Belize. I hope you make it back to America or Canada safely.

    If anything happens-such as death, Hollywood will probably produce a film about you, it’s inevitable. With the press from Joe Rogan to Vice to the local and national networks–you’re story is a real life James Bondish, Bourne Identity, and Iron man hybrid… then you would still be the winner because you’re message would expand beyond your intent. Hopefully this isn’t the case because many of us are rooting for you.

    I wish you all the best – best of luck. Be smart.

    Cheers dude,

    Sorry, my last comment however they are novt being posted anyway. John, if you truely want to prove tha danger of your return to Belize And how they have persecuted you, it seems that now is the time to release this information before they send you back. Perhaps that may have some weight as I believe that sadly our emails do not. The president of Guatemala, who I even wrote a “polite” message to on his Facebook page, has said that he goes along with decision to send you back because you have been pictured with heavy arms, quoted from the article in the Belizian Times yesterday.

    Good luck, do not panic, use your best mind and your best strategies and above all remain calm and strong.

    At this point I hope that John gets deported to the US. Seems that I read a comment by Mr. Martinez that they are actually holding something back. I think the simple questioning in Belize may turn into an arrest. On what basis, or facts I do not know, but one thing I can say, the cops are not going to give away what they may have until they have John. So, it seems they may have already figured out what the strategy is, and they are playing it well. I see this ending poorly if John is returned to Belize. If he is in the States however, I do not know if there is an extradition treaty with the US and Belize. It would be a fight either way, until the Police in Belize loose patience, and either clear John, or charge him. I think the fact they (Belize Police) are not saying anything until they talk to him gives me the answer.

    John, 

    I just exited Great America Parkway, and passed the building that once was headquarters for MFE. Although the building currently hangs a leasing sign, across the street, stands the new headquarters for McAfee, tall and proud displaying your software legacy.

    Much like these buildings, stand tall and proud for the work that you contributed to society. The world is a better place with you, and other pioneers that impact all of our lives on a daily basis. You still have work to do or contributions to make. Hang in there, tune out the noise, and stay focused on the end goal.

    I understand you, I worked in Investor Relations for several years, supporting a CEO/CFO for a major software company here in the Silicon Valley. Although not PR, many of the tactics are parallel, conference calls, targeting, talking points …

    With this in mind, a few points:
    – Myself and several colleagues within the financial community, have emailed Belize Officials, demanding release of your friends since they are being held without any charges of substance.
    – Remain consistent in your talking points and stick with 3-5 main ones based on the facts or proof. For example, you have audio of a former and current employee discussing either framing or harming you. These people should be considered “people of interest” in Faull’s murder.
    – The word is out now, select or target specific audiences and delivery of your key points. 
    – Remain calm, collected, and low maintenance. Don’t spook the Guatemalan Officials, they too don’t want themselves highlighted or exposed. You may be considered a risky person, who is too outspoken to keep around.
    – Please seek legal counsel from more than one attorney, preferably a woman latina.
    -We will email the President of Guatemala
    -If there is anything that you need, including cash, don’t hesitate.

    Best Regards to You and Sam!

    But on another note, as you must also direct your energy towards creating positive things in life, we are seeking for an angel investor to develop a Green School in Guatemala that would integrate Green Studies and Sciences, Spiritual and experiential learning to the common academic curriculum. It should be available to locals and foreigners and should promote a society and economy based on self-sustainability.
    At this time, we believe your support is beneficial to your current situation as this project creates the opportunity to give something of value back to the local Guatemalan community.

    I diligently emailed as you asked and now the blog post asking for support has disappeared. Comments were off and now they are on. It is frustrating to believe you and even put my name on an email asking for the powers that be to consider granting you asylum and to then see everything erased. Even if, in the end, as I suspect you will, expose the injustices you have experienced- is it worth manipulating your own supporters?

    I believe the government of Belize works hand in hand with the mafia and local gangsters.

    I was wondering if Mr. McAfee or his lawyer(s) would approve of his supporters organizing protests outside the Guatemalan and/or Belizean embassies.

    All’s well that ends well & what is supposed to be, will be. I just cannot understand why he won’t answer the questions about the murder. Am I missing something? If he has evidence of persecution & corruption, why can’t he show it to them & prove he has a right for asylum? Please, just show them the proof & then you can stay in Guatemala. I don’t see why you haven’t done this, but wishing you the best. It seems there is a solution, but you have decided against it. Asylum is a serious matter & just saying that a country has done these things, without a clear reason for doing them (the raids), is not enough. Maybe Guatemala does not want to be involved. I’d go back to Belize, answer their questions, pack up & leave. Confused in Australia.

    Indeed. And if I enetr Belize unwillingly, it will all be released. The evidence is in a trust that has inviolate conditions. One condition, just implemented, is that all documentation will be released to the world press upon my involunatary return. I cannot stop it or change it. “Protection Trusts”, they are called. I’d love to but dinner for whoever invented them. Actually, I believe the first incarnation of Protection Trusts were “Asset Protection Trusts” – APTs. Oddly, Belize is one of the world’s largest producers of APTs.

    Like you said, life sometimes sends you unexpected detours. Perhaps this is a blessing in disguise. Maybe this route gives the publicity necessary to clean up this mess. Best of luck, I’m sending you the best vibes I can.

    good. i think the guatemalan government got cold feet from the publicity and maybe belize pressure. Anyway someone on the run from a country need juridical review to estimate if the recieving country should consider amnesty. Good things have a time to cool down now, with judges involved.

    I can be a crystal ball and see strength is needed or ill health will befall you or someone you are with . I see efforts wasted but a union between two lovers who share a secret and I see a pause in travell but another journey in your near future. Within two days you will travell again over water. There is no convictions or prison in your future. protect your funds how you see fit. Post this or delete this , I don’t care. Your whim and humor amuse me…and me is an old but deadly accurate taro card reader. I’d say good luck but you don’t need it. You will be ok with Sam.

    Glad to hear that you are out. I will keep praying for you! Seems that someone, someplace has it out for you, and doing what they can tp make life hard, There are a lot of people out here that support you, I, for one! Hang in there and fight as long as it takes! The truth will prevail.
    On the other hand, I know that Sam and you have a good relationship. And I know this will piss people off; but please think about what you are getting ready to do. She is but a child, and everything that you two have been together, she has looked at it as an adventure. I should know; (like Sam); I got involved with someone old enough to be my father. We has an adventure and I was introduced to a higher standard of living. Much like Sam. He gave me experiences that I would have never had. Eventually, our age difference got to be too much and we decided to go our separate ways.
    When I look at Sam I see myself; please just enjoy the present, take everyday one day at a time, but don’t commit to a future. It is something that none of us can control.
    By the way; I have had three of my males friends decided to marry women much younger: 25 years plus and the longest one lasted seven years, and she fought the prenup!

    Even with the relatively obscure legal conventions of central america in mind I wouldn’t have expected the guatemalan administration to dare sending you back to Belize. The only legal basis for repatriation – if one finds it opportune to use this term – would be certainly the US. After all, you didn’t came to Guatemala floating on a door. Due to the enormous publicity your case has generated during the last week, I think you’re quite save from any form licentiousness for now. I wish you luck and steady nerves for the next days. Yours, from Germany,

    I worked in Belize last year for 6 months. The amount of corruption from authorities is horrible. I can only imagine what you went through, and I am sure you must feel safer at a Guatemalan jail, than at your own home in Belize. I hope they do not send you back and I believe you are not paranoid. You are just too smart. These people are horrible and behave like a cult. May your problems be resolved soon.

    On a side note, the “Boycott Belize” button doesnt work and hasnt since I started watching and following your story. I think it is a very good idea to show the powers that be the number of people who are aware of the problems and saftey risks involved in their country. What about doing an online petition that could actually shows the number of people who are being made aware of this?

    GUATEMALA TO EXPELL MCAFEE TO BELIZE – REUTERS – Himalayan Times
    GUATEMALA CITY: Guatemalan police arrested U.S. software guru John McAfee on Wednesday for illegally entering the country and said it would expel him to neighboring Belize, which he fled after being sought for questioning over his neighbor’s murder.

    McAfee, who had been in hiding for three weeks, crossed into Guatemala with his girlfriend, Samantha, to evade authorities in Belize who wanted to question him as “a person of interest” about the killing of fellow American Gregory Faull.

    “He entered the country illegally and we are going to seek his expulsion for this crime,” Interior Minister Mauricio Lopez Bonilla said.

    Guatemala government spokesman Francisco Cuevas said McAfee would be expelled to Belize and he expected the process to be completed by early Thursday morning.
