Dean Barrow & Belize Telemedia

Posted by: WhoIsMcAfee , December 1, 2012

Against court – orders Dean Barrow Disburses 12 M from Belize Telemedia to family and friends

 

A Belizean court ordered Dean Barrow not to disburse 12 million dollars from BTL (Belize Telemedia ) to his family and friends. He did it anyway on Friday Dec 14 2012 at 8:00 AM.

The court is trying to hold the Belizean government in contempt and has ordered the return of the money. Barrow has refused.

    Not sure if this is still being monitored by JM. Funny how I came across this post… pure curiosity. I used Dean Barrows office (Barrows and Williams)to close on my property in Belize so the video and comments were of interest to me. I was living in Belize when I heard your story and just returned US as well in Sept 2013 . I stumbled upon this site today after watching a video of John on Youtube “Truth Never Told”. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yU2NNb12Y4. I didn’t flee per se but I booked a flight and left the next day before someone or something stopped me from leaving the country. I left everything I owned as well, my dreams, my pride and everything but the shirt on my back. I left because of the bribes, corruption, threats, my dog was poisoned as well (but survived), the obeah. Such common practice in this country. I have been suffering in silence for four months since I returned. I’m still not right but have my sanity somewhat. My family doesn’t understand, my friends don’t understand, nobody understands unless they lived it and survived it. I’m glad you did John… I’m still struggling to get my life back. Your story has given me some hope. I will be following it and wish you the best of luck. Oh.. and by the way, never knew how handsome you were!!! Peace – K

    It’s not a matter of being able to get out of BZ. Anyone can just walk or swim over any of its three borders. Being recognized is the problem. Now his girl friend’s picture is everywhere so that makes the journey harder. There are at least three highways in BZ that a small plane can land at night or even during the day Many places along the southern highway you can land during the day safely, like between Independence and PG. There are also private fields where caretakers can be bribed. Hell for that matter you can do a touch and go in PG, Placencia (schrimp farm)or Spanish Lookout. I’m sure John is aware of this as well as the BZ Police who have used most of these highways to land before, at least once getting caught! Ha Ha. Interesting adventure if you’re sitting home with a glass of wine but not for John. This will be a long road, if he survives it.

    Trying again, just lost an entire post:

    Thanks for your insightful explanation and take on things, Godot. There are a few things I am still pondering.

    I have been very wary of any nicks I may have recognized and any innuendoes I have picked up on due to the fact that I am just doubting the entire thing here. And that’s the result of John’s own demeanor and approach to his “quest”. Past unusual yet effective marketing strategies, historical delight in blurring the lines between fact & fiction, the list goes on. Not to forget that if the entire thing was true and as told by him, someone of his intellect and analytical capability would most likely go for a much more effective and sensible course of action.

    Sure, I don’t doubt the corruption nor some of the incidents that have taken place at his house. But what’s new? There are countless third world AND second world countries plagued by corruption. However, I cannot cater to a system and support corruption for as long as things go well for me and then turn around and yell out “save Belize” and go on the run.

    So, it all does not make any sense and it is either one big stunt or there is something much larger behind it. But to me things definitely do not add up. Not yet.

    Regarding drugs – in general: Many here keep insisting that it would be impossible for him to write and give interviews of the quality he delivers if he was on drugs. This makes me cringe and does not hold true for every user/addict. Especially one with a great mind like John’s.

    A close friend who is not only addicted but also going through drug-induced psychosis is still amazingly eloquent, analytical and healthy-sounding – in speech and writing. An outsider would never be able to tell (except by the behavior during an acute psychotic episode) – if it weren’t for the strung-out look. I firmly believe that drugs do interfere with many facets, but not with one’s intelligence or any outstanding communication skills (I am excluding weed here as the train of thought is constantly interrupted there) that had been in place already. The choices however are affected to a great extent.

    This is a crazy world. I hope he is free. If he is innocent of the crime, the only way is to stay free and remain on the run. Since he wants to stay in that country, he will need to keep running for a long time. The prison system could be a death sentence, lack of proper food, sickness, disease, etc. I sincerely hope he is able to find peace and safety.

    John’s posts show up as black background so they are easier to spot. I don’t think anyone can fake that
    .
    Strange how the media is running with this story of John being captured based solely on this blog and despite the statements from the Belize police saying it is not true.
    .
    The Media is lazier than we thought.

    A plausible theory we should all continually keep in mind:

    Martin Savidge of CNN blew John’s cover, either through incompetence, or design, perhaps with a goal of obtaining an exclusive of his capture for CNN. As a result, John was abducted and killed by Belizean authorities to get rid of an embarrassing problem for them, and now they claim ignorance, and say they don’t have him (which they wouldn’t if they are not in possession currently of his dead body).

    Maybe everyone’s already thinking this. Certainly a possibility until proved otherwise.

    I do not think that John killed Mr Faull or is even involved, and if he’s not, he has no reason to disappear. In the NYT article from yesterday:


    When Mr. McAfee’s dogs were poisoned, on Friday, Nov. 9, he e-mailed Mr. Davis, the Wired reporter, and wrote that a contingent of black-suited thugs had swarmed the beach near his home. A half-hour later, he said, all of my dogs had been poisoned.

    And the GSU et. al. had already killed another dog of his in the raid back in April. So, that’s who he would be suspecting, Not Mr. Faull.

    And here is his statement regarding Mr Faull from his “If I am captured” Blog Entry:


    I barely knew the man. When I first started Quorumex I rented his basement for our laborotory, but the entire deal was done through Vivium Wu and her husband Jeff, the owners of Rojo’s Lounge just north of me, so I didn’t at any time talk to Gregg about it, either before or after. Gregg was in the States at the time. Jeff and Vivian had issues with Allison, who ran the lab and lived upstairs in Gregg’s house, over Allison’s neatness. Finally they became angry and asked me to move her out, which I did. At no time, again, did I speak directly to Gregg. Jeff and Viviun were managing the property for Gregg. Gregg had borrowed my four wheeler once by asking my caretaker if he could borrow it. It came back broken and I told my careitaker never to lend him anything else. Again, I did not speak to Gregg, nor did I consider it a huge issue. The repars were not major. This was three years ago. Recently Gregg was upset about my dogs barking, as were all the neighbors. He came by and told me he was upset. I apologized and said I would work on it. I was upset about the barking too and did what I could to minimize it. In all, I have probably spoken 50 words to Gregg over a five year period, and few of them were angry. I did not particularly like him, but but as far as neighbors go, he was not even on my radar. I am far more angry at Vivian and Jeff for the way they handled Allison’s eviction. Jeff shouted obscenities to Jennifer Irwin my girlfreind at that time and intimidated her. I thought this was improper. In spite of that, I still occassionally eat at their restaurant. As neighbors go, none of my neighbors are much of a problem compared to the issues that I deal with daily. We all have problems with our neighbors from time to time.

    So, if Belizean government contingents killed Mr Faull, then they could kill Mr. McAfee too.

    Mike: I totally believe in innocence until proven guilty. Unfortunately, there is, by all indications, a wonderful man murdered. Gregory Faull. The question is why is McAfee avoiding that issue. Check out Gregory Faull http://www.dpkpr.com/news/statement-from-the-family-of-gregory-faull/

    December 2, 2012 at 9:35 pm

    You are right. I’ve seen many gringos run out of BZ and lost all their property. Unfortunately, they usually come into the country thinking they are superior, alllied themselves with the lowest rif raf, then are killed, imprisoned or chased out of the country with their tails between their legs. I remember when San pedro had only one fence and that was around Bowen’s house and all the dogs just layed around and never barked. Gringos have brought the vicious dogs to BZ. The beaches are public. No dog should ever be allowed to chase people walking the beach and private security has no right checking anyone on public access. I know how corrupt BZ is and John has no chance of surviving this by staying in BZ or keeping his property intact.

    Try heading out to the Mennonite areas of Belize if things get too hot. Unplug for a bit and find some peace They are good people who help people in need. When things cool off and if necessary, you can always depart by boat to somewhere safer. If at any time donations are needed, I’m in and so are many others who are rooting for you. Best of luck and peace be with you brother.

    Criminy. Can we stop with the rampant speculation please. Many of you have zero experience with Belize and do not understand how throughly corrupt the government is. Many of you have no idea about the obvious Trolling on Bluelight and simply take it as fact without looking into it. None of you have any idea where John is nor what he is up to. Give it a rest. Wait and see.

    Beyond that, If John did indeed wish to leave the country it is far far easier to exit into Guatemala unnoticed than it is to pass into Mexico. Heck I even know of a cave system where you can enter on the Belizean side and exit on the Guatemalan side. You could also simply ride horses across in several remote areas.

    Odd things to point out. In the picture of Sam that was posted (she is making lunch), she is not covered in mosquito bites, even though McAfee said that he was “lathering on” Vicks Vapor Rub.
    McAfee spoke of sleeping in tree top’s and eating sun dried iguana (like sushi), yet I can’t notice any dramatic weight loss from previous photos of Mr. McAfee.

    Fiona, you apparently don’t recognize them, but there are a number of people famous in the computer industry using their real names who check-in regularly to check on John’s welfare and offer advice if not explicit support. No doubt others were active behind the scenes. Many more have chosen to lurk anonymously in the wings: Shielding identity from the opposition preserves safety and leaves many options open for future action which would be unavailable were potential actors to be identified and added to an enemies list. Most of the denizens of “the industry” are familiar with strategy and tactics; advanced understanding of logic is part of the price for an admission ticket. There is an advantage to the element of surprise. Stay tuned. No one knows from which direction the next salvo will come. Recall, for example, that in a previous post John specifically asked — as a personal favor — that Anonymous and friends refrain from interfering for the time-being.
    –
    N.B. with all that technical ability available here, NO ONE offered any advice or ideas as to how the opposition might have successfully tracked John. I have personally identified a number of posters who could have located John within a few days of arriving in BZ. I have not been explicitly told, but logic and familiarity with the technology in place makes me certain that there are a number of people “behind the black curtain” who had access to John’s whereabouts throughout the chase. But it was not their fight. With the backwater technology John was forced to use, there were a number of techniques which could have been used to trap him. No doubt we will all discuss ad infinitum in some future thread (perhaps herein, or perhaps in another forum) a play-by-play post mortem of the technical thrusts and parries employed in the chase. Many of us have already been doing so off-line as the chase progressed. These are the kinds of puzzles we love so much that we have made solving them, and discussing the details and minutiae of various alternative approaches to obtaining solutions, our vocation. But to date, this has been John’s show. He has implicitly (and sometimes…Ouch!…explicitly) expressed his desire that we remain in the backseat while he drives. But if and when John can no longer drive, others will. John’s show must go on.
    –
    That said, John’s ‘take no prisoners’ approach to business did leave a trail of bodies in his path. Unfortunately we don’t yet live in a world where you can be successful in business and remain friends with everyone. If it comes, I am sure some people will delight in John’s downfall. I can already see some of them cackling here now. But there will be many others who wish to avenge John.

    But then again, Harold Camping (the rapture guy) had thousands of people convinced, as did Jim Jones, the ‘Birther Movement’, and Rush Limbaugh has people that hang on to his every word!!

At any rate, I hope he is safe, wheth

    There are 2 possibilities in my opinion 1)the site was hacked & they started this thread about John being captured, allowing the blog to run amok.
    Or most likely 2) John planned this little farce with Chad & allowed the readers to believe he had been captured, while assuming, quite correctly, that many news wires around the world would pick it up & run with it, which they’ve done by quoting the blog as an unconfirmed source. By doing this, he can disappear either for a short time or an extensive one, and when the Belizean government and/or the police force report that he has not been captured, then “everyone” will assume, wrongly, that “they” have done away with him. I’ll bet I’m right, because a lot of posts aren’t being posted now & they are being strategically placed to suit someone’s (John’s) fancy. Either way, John, you are a freak & your narcissism is absolutely frightening. One day you will have to answer for it, one way or another. Too bad you had to leave so much carnage in your wake. Did you ever apologize to your girlfriend of 12 years before she left? Just wondering.

    But it WASN’T the GSU that raided his property on Thursday. The report that there was no GSU on the island that day is true. It also wasn’t the Coast Guard, and yet Nestor supposedly “saw” the uniforms of BOTH of them. WRONG! It was a provisional police force, can’t remember the initials, so you see, all is not as John claims & he does have a very personal vendetta against the GSU & Mark Vidal, in particular, and yet they have not been near him since April 30…..Except for hiding in the bushes.

    Martin Savidge of CNN says “We didn’t know where we were going, didn’t know even how to get back. It was like a bad spy movie” He states that McAfee has over a dozen cell phones and a whole system of code words and that he needed to use specific prompts and responses to gain access. Someone mentioned GPS in the comments. Apparently this interview was “Weeks in the making.” That’s odd isn’t it? It would be easy to bring along a gps stashed inside a camera. Critical thought is important here. So much is still not adding up. I’m thinking critical thought will be the punchline and the masses and the media will be the victim. All the encodings have been right in front of our faces the whole time.

    I think there is a pretty natural progression through all this immense information…and in the beginning, it all appears a hoax….then he appears to be a drug addled paranoid when you get through the bluelight phase/Wired magazine interview. (I have read every post on bluelight myself)

    However, after following the story it becomes VERY clear that neither of those postitions can really thoroughly explain the multitude of details that have played out in REAL TIME…all corroborated by real news events and historic records of those events in the past like his raid and the GSU abuse/corruption.

    John explained that the bluelight thread was a hoax, and at some point, one has to begin to seriously entertain that possibility. You may not be there yet, but every interview John has given (and replies here) over the weeks sound lucid and logical…not someone with a schitzophrenic break from heavy drug use.

    There are many reasons why it was a hoax…improbable chemistry, urban myth basis, too good to be true, over the top sexual stories. Has anyone seen a real drug addict hopped up on stimulants who isn’t skinny as hell? John does not have the PHYSIQUE nor the mentation of a bath salts addicted human being!

    I know he claimed in the bluelight thread that after awhile his appetite was increased….but that is utterly incompatible with adrenaline based stimulants that cause decreased GI transit and appetite. No other drug is like that…too good to be true from a junkie perspective.

    Bluelight was convincing as hell….it just wasn’t true. The pictures of the packages of bath salts apparently were real (I think John said that)….but keep in mind that they are sold legally there…so no laws were breached.

    Also keep in mind that all the rest of us were probably at the point you are with bluelight over a week ago…. In the meantime, we have seen and interacted with a very rational human being with a clear focus and mission.

    Argue all you want about how tough it is to tell when a hoaxter decides to finally tell the truth…it is clearly not making it easy for anyone. But, please move on from the blue light thing….most of the rest of us have already.

    Declaring someone insane is one of the easiest means for political oppression, going back to the days of Bedlam in 18th England and continuing on ever since (in the old Soviet Union and basically everywhere else too).Just waiting for some Belizean doctor (looking like Dr. Nick Riviera on the SImpson’s maybe) to come out and say reassuringly that McAfee is being treated for “exhaustion”.

    So, supposedly the police have been doing a door-to-door search on the island for John and Sam. During this search, a post appears on this blog that they have been captured at the border…yet, according to the San Pedro mayor, they have not been caught. My guess is that John and Sam just narrowly escaped being found during the island search, and that post was an attempt at a diversion. They certainly weren’t caught, regardless; it would have caught on in the press by now.

    I have. In fact I lived on Ambergris for about 3 yrs before running back to the U.S. The place is a f..king joke. Its is corrupt. The laws mean nothing. And the increase in crime has made it nearly impossible to exist there. Unless you want to sleep in a tree house in the jungle Belize is NOT a cheap place to live. Much of the crime exists because of the tremendous lack of education ( a large % do not finish H.S), lack of opportunities, and the necsssity to steal to survive. Talk to ANY AMERICAN that has lived in Belize and this will be confirmed. Real Estate Agents, Hotel owners, and people presently doing business in Belize may tell you other wise. And understandbly so, they do not want their livelihood to suffer….but trust me it is very very bad.

    One thing that was confusing for a while was that John insisted that he wanted to stay in Belize. It seemed absurd that a murder”suspect” who was either guilty or reasonably suspect-able of guilt to stay put and put himself out the way he has. So, if you were John and you really didnt want to leave, but knew also that detention without attention could be impossibly risky and unleveraged- then a delayed detention with attention would be the goal that would lead to a final understanding that didnt leave him broke or dead- and possibly lead to a way of continuing to live in Belize being far less susceptible to government encroachment in the future. if he was shot i doubt he was fleeing. cnn may have been the last thing necessary for John to finish what he started. Maybe he wants at this time to be detained- but with all of us and the rest of the world watching (and cheering;). The scary thing is that no one is a suspect. Whatever happened to the security people that John fired? Any of them upset with John?

    My google search picked up someone by that name who wrote an article for the paper in 1962, per 2nd comment to article cited. If the same person, he’d have to be at least in his 70s now. Maybe it’s a coincidence, or another person by the same name, or an imposter seeking sensation.
    …
    If CNN has this story it would be breaking news now, or else they would seem to be acting in collusion with the authorities in an elaborate planned tracking trap via the arranged interview yesterday.
    …
    This continuing saga has so many mysteries as yet unravelled. We’ve all been fed truth and lies.

    BBB-reviewing Josh/Wired ebook, your hunch looks right. Amy said McAfee’s attention was focused on the other women. She “felt like complete shit around here”, “I don’t have a say anymore”. Such action by Amy would bring justice to the presumed dog killer and regain stature with John. I don’t think it was a setup as those were her words to Josh. There may be a flip side setup/distraction!

  176. Isabel
    December 2, 2012 at 4:37 am

    Well, now we have numerous reports of John’s capture, all from different areas of the country, as well as Mexico, as of this last post.
    One says he was captured in Belize near the border of Mexico, one says in Santa Elena near the Mexican border, even though Santa Elena & San Ignazio are 9 miles from Guatemala & nowhere near Mexico, & yet another report from “Bangkok” of all places, stating that Carmelita is near San Pedro, which is really ridiculous, as San Pedro is the town on Ambergris Caye, which is an island & Carmelita is near Orange Walk, which is many miles away & actually on the mainland. These idiots need to at least look at a map of Belize before “confirming” where John was supposedly captured.
    And now it’s reported that he was captured in Mexico & shot while fleeing. And yet he’s back in Belize & in custody?? I’d think that he’d be in a Mexican jail or hospital, because I doubt very seriously that they would just want him to be taken out of their country straightaway.
    It’s just amazing, but these so-called reporters are as hard to believe as John was at the outset. Just crazy. Any viable info with correct coordinants would be very welcome right now.

I smell corruption and violence and I think JM had good reason to be paranoid. Perhaps his paranoia was enhanced by drugs. Who knows. All I can say is I hope he is innocent and is not made a scapegoat for his neighbours death.

    A few thoughts: They won’t kill him, he is worth nothing to them dead. Put him in jail for the rest of his life would be far better for them anyway–then they can remind him every day that they won the power struggle. Because that’s what this is now–he has made it so by going viral. if they weren’t pissed at him before he went on the run, they certainly will be by now, with all that he has claimed about them. Self fulfilling prophecy perhaps? Besides, there is all that cash flow potential if they keep him alive and in jail. They can solicit big bribes to get charges dropped or altered and then not deliver–what can he do about it? They can make him pay to get decent food, a better cell, medical, visits from his girlfriend even–how much would a multimillionaire pay for a conjugal visit with (one of) his girlfriends? I’m guessing lots, poor sot. Keep’m alive, milk’m for years, and laugh at him all the time, that’s the real revenge and you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to figure that out.

    I don’t know if his paranoia about planted evidence is justified or not, and given the media scrutiny this will have how easy that would be for the authorities to pull off even if they are actually so inclined. But if it is true they have no scruples about that as he and others have claimed, he will end up in jail for a looong time, on weapons and/or drugs charges at least, even without the murder issue.

    Of course, no one on this blog can know if he is innocent or guilty of anything, because at this point we really only have his word for it. And in general situations (not judging John in particular here) that is not a lot to go on, people usually do proclaim their innocence even when they are not, you will notice. But you will also notice that has not stopped many (most?) people here from making up their minds already. What is it that makes us so eager to rush to judgement? And then so sure we are right, even when we have so little to go on except our own hunches? Those hunches that will usually say more about us than they do about John or the facts of the case. Assuming we have much in the way of facts at his point, which btw is not a safe assumption.

    Because there is a chance that the rule of law will apply, he will be questioned and not charged for murder or drugs, and released ( or banged up on weapons charges for a year or two that he is accountable for) and not just because he has invited all the media attention, just because they did not find anything on him and they did not do anything to frame him after all. That’s not what he is claiming, but he could be wrong or excessively paranoid–it is at least a possibility.

    We really do not know the true situation never mind the evidence and should not assume we do. S’all I’m sayin’.

    bitch dog who bites
    that was my hunch after reading the first installment of Josh/wired article
    Was she looking for a treat or a pat on the head? She was being ousted by the family of five … and didn’t like it and knew that could get his attention.
    She also made comments ( according to Josh /Wired) that if anyone messed with her dogs or John , she would blow them away . Quien sabe? or was she being ” set up ” beforehand as a person of interest ? to take us off track? She was the first character introduced in the Wired piece:
    ” The Female Assassin”

It does appear to me that Joshua Davis was also thinking along these lines.

    Police and government officals know if John’s injured or killed in custody it will be headline news across the US and the world, so he’ll be treated with kid gloves during the investigations.

    Now the millions who, for the past 2 weeks, saw his interviews, read his blogs and comments, and commented themselves in this real-life reality story, need to write millions of emails to Belize politicans, government managers, and police officials demanding John be treated fairly and honourably during the murder and gun-licence-infraction investigations.

    The US Embassy should visit him in prison to show the Police they’re being watched and to bolster John’s confidence that the US government is monitoring him.

    Someone needs to post 100 or more emails of Belize politicians, government managers and workers, police officials, and anyone else in positions of authority who we can request that John be treated fairly.

    if I recall correctly, AIM was a part of AOL, not a standalone as was PowWow. I believe you originally had to subscribe to AOL which was a paid hourly service at that time, in order to use the instant messaging within it. PowWow only required an internet connection which was dialup modem at that time. I was a beta tester of AOL and had numerous e-mail accounts including xxx@aol.com. When AOL went online, they gave me, as a beta tester, the generous offer to pay $3.95 per hour instead of the $4.95 per hour. I declined and ended my AOL accounts.

This from Wiki explains it better than I. “Despite its name, the caliber of the 38 Special cartridge is actually .357–.358 inches (9.0678 mm), with the “.38″ referring to the approximate diameter of the loaded brass case.”

    I visited Belize last winter and found the people to be very friendly, sincere, and easy to talk to. I would consider the people we met including our tour guides and hosts to be friends. That being said, I always had the feeling as a tourist that I was only allowed to see one aspect of Belize. On one ruin tour the guide pointed to one of Johns homes and said that was where Mr. Mcafee resided. Belize is a very complex country in which the residents dont seem to have many options. I cant imagine the government has the best interests of its citizens in mind. Foreigners are always seen as foreigners. I would imagine their value to the government would increase with their net worth.

    December 2, 2012 at 2:30 am

    If the govt is so bad and it is a well known fact they will extort them what fool would live there? His own profession of circumstance proves he is a fool. If he is innocent and they kill him he is getting exactly what he claims he knew would be his fate. If you jump out of planes and claim one out of 100 chutes fail, would you jump 101 times? In john’s case he knew the govt was going to shake him down, he stayed and now he is on the run. If he is captured and killed I will just say, he should have listened to himself. He could be living in Santa Fe, or Calif safe and sound. But for some reason he choose to live where he thought he could provide gifts to police and govt and stay out of trouble. Dumb move Einstein

    Ps: if your a media whore and on the run you never profess your case, love or otherwidse for anyone. It’s the oldest trick in the book. Don’t chase the man, chase and hold what he loves and he will come seeking them. Dumb shit, the reason they are holding your friends is because you care about them.

    @Stan….. First, it’s Luka Magnotta. And second, have you read anything about John? Magnotta killed his boyfriend, then dismembered the body…while filming it of course. He then proceeded to mail pieces of Jun Lin’s body to different cities and locations ( a school in Vancouver ) in Canada. He was also no stranger to the police, who were working with the Animal Beta Project trying to track him down. It seems he enjoyed hurting things, having shown himself, live online, sucking the air out of a bag of kittens. His capture removed a psychopath from our world. HOW COULD HIS ACTIONS POSSIBLY BE, EVEN REMOTELY COMPARED TO JOHN’S? There are no similarities. John may seem eccentric to some, probably even himself, but he’s no animal killing~boyfriend slashing~body piece mailing psycho. PERIOD.
    Please start at the beginning of the blog, you will quickly learn that thank God, there is no comparison, and hopefully you’ll gain some insight into John’s ordeal, and the plight of Belize.

    @JMAS: From the link you cite:
    “PowWow was one of the first instant messaging programs to provide interoperability between multiple instant messaging clients and was compatible with both AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) and Microsoft’s MSN Messenger.”
    –
    This, in itself, documents that instant messaging from both AOL and MSN predated TribVoc. At this point in history some of us had already figured out how to add voice to these services.
    –
    In a broader context, the same functionality referred to as IM existed on ASR-15 military teletypes in the 1950s.

    -The praise to Wired was sarcastic I think
    -It doesn’t say it was an actual border crossing, just “at the Mexican Border”
    -The stock photo was one he used a couple of days ago as well.
    -Agree he seems genuinely spooked by the CNN interview.

    14 barking dogs next door. narsiasitic drug addicted sexual deviant living next door with 14 dogs waling from getting poofed up the butt by his face eating bath salts plugging hanger-on’s.. but he says he doesn’t have him in it to kill him? omg. if someone killed one of my pets there would be hell to pay. I’m not condoning murder but EVERYONE has it in them. it’s just a matter of lines in the sand and it sure looks like that line was crossed. fess up. pay the price.

    Interesting that the global media have picked up that blog entry and published it all over – selling unconfirmed rumors as news.

    This is entire thing is excellent entertainment. A premiere – kind of like the “Real World” (first season in NYC) was for reality TV.

    Of course, I am still a doubter. Things just don’t add up. And one indiviual alone without a huge group of supporters is unable to overhaul an entire government and cultural way of thinking. John is just too intelligent to not be able to realize that.

Could be from those cigg’s he says regretfully he took back up… He sure seems polite though speaking to the one interviewer. If him and sam are picked up at least we all have his side of the story not just what the media has put out.. I just hope that young girl doesn’t get hurt..I believe in his innocence . I do know his friends should be released . Like he stated They do not have anything to do with any of this….

    I’ll say it again. I have spent time in Belize. I know many expats and locals there. Corruption by the Government and Police is a well known fact. The Nation is sinking in it’s own excrement. When the British left, the ignorant began to rule. Whichever gang, err. . . political party wins an election, they begin to loot the coffers and place their cohorts in positions of power. John has long been a political threat to the current political party and it is very clear to anyone who knows Belize, that a which hunt is going on. This will not end well for the current government which ever way Johns troubles turn out.. Speak up. Act out. Force a change to happen. This corruption must be thrust forth into the light.
    God Speed John. I wish you well.

    This is just a two minute search from two news sources. Keep in mind these links are some of the many major crimes that actually get reported.

    The amount of robberies,muggings, rapes, burgluries, home invasions etc etc don’t make the news as it either goes unreported or kept out of the news so tourists and people retiring there/business investors would be scared away.

    The amount of police and govt corruption is unimaginable to someone from the U.S. or UK.
    My advice to anyone wanting to visit is STAY AWAY FROM BELIZE! Go to Hawaii or Tahiti..even Costa Rica is a better option.

  249. Mark_13
    December 2, 2012 at 1:39 am

    But the difference is, that the continuing propaganda about Osama was he was worse than Hitler. Of course that’s a feather in the cap to the military to capture him and publicize it (but in his case as well they actually just killed him and quickly “buried him at sea”.)

    In McAfee’s case, the GSU and so forth say they’re not even actively looking for him, imply that his crazy, and say they just want to question him (a line repeated to the letter by CNN). Why would they crow about capturing him when they’re not even supposed to be looking for him. To make him just disappear (i.e. kill him, don’t admit it and imply he’s gone on his own) seems like a viable option for them.

    But just to show I can play both sides of a fence, here’s an alternative scenario I thought earlier about posting:

    Say McAfee did kill Faull for poisoning all his dogs and knew he would have to go on the run and disappear. So he set it up to make CNN look like the culprit for ratting him out or just revealing his location through incompetence, (to settle a score he has with the media) and then make the GSU look responsible for killing him when he never shows up again (to settle a score he has with them). And the last blog entry about another dead dog is really in memoriam for all his dogs that died.

    No, I don’t think I believe all that. A simpler explanation leaves out all his supposed connivance in the above scenario.

    And then there’s the fact that only a couple of days ago, he told us the GSU et. al. had raided his compound and they denied it, but then he provided proof and they had to admit it the next day. McAfee has to get huge credibility ratings for that.

    And just trying to play out a scenario in my mind where either he personally or through an intermediary sneaks into Faulls home to kill him execution style, and then just leaves the body lying there to be discovered, its not plausible.

    Still processing your other post above.

    That’s approximately 35 and one-half caliber in “gun-speak”.
    So a 9 mm diameter slug (.354″) is not even very close in size to a .38 caliber (.38″) slug.

    CD, if you are truly interested please read the entire blog especially the Introduction and about the initial raid on April, 2012.
    In Belize, they can detain you for as long as they want, without pressing charges. The
    case can be tried and sentenced by a Judge appointed by the P.M., no jury of your peers necessary.
    People go missing, murdered, brutally beaten while in custody , they are found hanged with their hands handcuffed behind their back, or killed by inmates…. all the time. . It is not an unusual occurrence, it happens every day and it is even reported in the local news. More often these brutalities happen to those more invisible to the Eye , than “Who is John McAfee” .

    Meanwhile, hopefully, the murder of Mr. Faull will be solved ( unlikely, but possible)
    If you read the entire story thus far, it may answer you question His “case is stronger” because he is still free to LIve and tell the tale,
    There is much more to come… stay tuned . “He is just setting the table” .

    Actually, I live in Belize and YOU need to do some research. Although not a Spanish country, Belize is almost 50% mestizo or hispanic and they are by far the single largest people group. It is an English-speaking country, although I’d say Kriol and Spanish are just as common as English. It is certainly considered a 3rd world country and a developing country. Also, he may not face a jury of his peers due to the new laws (Indictable Procedure Act and the Juries Act) that allow a person to be tried simply before a judge without a jury on murder and attempted murder charges. This was passed under the guise of preventing witness intimidation, but invites its own corruption is the judge is not perfect.

  299. turtleman
    December 1, 2012 at 11:15 pm

    They could but it is very unlikely. Despite everything that has been said about corruption, the rule of law exists in Belize and no one has ever “been disappeared” by the “legitimate authorities” nor has it been rumored to my knowledge. They would be gloating about catching him. After all, being eluded by a widely experienced, worldly and tech savvy genius, even in a small country, is not all that shameful.

    They do speak Spanish in Belize. They also speak English, Creole, and Mayan among others. The “official language” is English but that means nothing.

    You are right on on account: everybody is innocent until proven guilty. The rest that you wrote is just plain wrong: 1) Belize is NOT a Spanish-speaking country. It is technically NOT part of Latin America. It’s OFFICIAL language is ENGLISH. Look it up if you do not believe me. When are they going to start teaching geography again?
    2). Those third-world Spanish-speaking people settle their differences with violence is plainly a prejucial statement (prejudice: to pre judge) that is a gross generalization. SOME third-world Spanish-speaking people settle their differences with violence just as SOME first-wold English-speaking people do. The rest negotiate or use the judicial (yes, there are courts in Latin America). And, by the way, of course I’m sure you do not consider war to be a violent means to settle differences. Or is it only third-world Spanish-speaking people that engage in war?

    Finally, I would advise you to go to your local library and start reading some non-fiction books that would help you gain some insight into some of these issues, but with an OPEN MIND (if that’s possible). It is never too late to get an education!
    Good luck!

    First, if he were to cross the border, wouldn’t crossing by boat be easier? Second, it’s probably safe to assume CNN wouldn’t rat him out and would take precautions in interviewing him. To do so would beng giving up a reputation CNN has spent billions on building. Lastly, if he were to get caught, I think the authorities would be quick to announce his capture as they look bad for not being able to track him.

    Can anyone else confirm if the bond restructuring Barrow proposes (aka. we can’t pay what we promised, so here is half…take it or leave it) is related to the guaranteed 15% profit on Ashcroft’s telecommunications business… (the one Barrow nationalize and stole from him).

    Or did they issue a bond to raise money to meet that debt. Not clear on the sequence of who the bond holders are and who is getting shafted in the restucturing by PM Dean Barrow.

    gh,

    Thank you for the Vimeo link….I think we can watch the local news as it gets put up now.

    Always good to see the context firsthand. We automatically carry forward our own experiences with good infrastructure, property rights, and due process to how we see things.

    But you see in the commerticals and newscast abject poverty, immature media, poor infrastructure…and a general setting where unchecked tyranny might flourish…

    It may be appealing to some to just see the vacation/lounging side of life there….but there is clearly much more than that going on.

    There is no TV news on weekends or holidays in Belize, but I have been listening to the radio and there has been no mention of Mr. McAfee. Nothing moves very fast in Belize except bad news or a rumor and no one has called or text-ed Love FM which surely would have reported it. Rather they have been reading birthday greeting texts from listeners. Plus, and just as conclusively, if the authorities had apprehended him they would have been bragging about it already. Having lived in Belize for many years and experienced much, I can only conclude that Mr. McAfee is still a “free” man.

    I have this mental image of John and Sam dressed in florescent beach cloting wearing sandwich signs at the Chetumel border crossing wearing sandwich signs saying “My name is John McAfee. I am wanted in Belize for questioning in a murder I did not commit Please wait until my lawyer and the international media get here before you put the cuffs on.” How else would the Belize police ever catch him? They are incompetent. Since most cops are illiterate it will take them at least 2 hours to get it translated.

    What makes Martin Savidge an expert to decide John’s answers are bizare? I have lived in Central America and saw first hand that just about everybody in any kind of authority somehow or other gets paid or what ever it is you want to happen or don’t want to happen will not get done…….All of Central America is a snake pit and if you go there stay with your tourist group or live there like a very poor and dumb native and keep your head low. I believe all of what John has said about the Government. I also think he got in over his head by challenging anybody who thinks they have power in a third world country (small brain ego problems). Remember what the PM said, who does he think he is. John, if they go down (which I doubt) they will go down burning in a fight you can not wage on your own….

    I actually read through the entire thread at Bluelight and in the beginning, he was hailed as a folk hero who uncovered the holy grail. Later on, many more skeptical people started posting, including some people with knowledge of chemistry, and they were not at all convinced. He also never sounded paranoid or delusional in any of the posts. He exaggerated the hypersexual properties of Tan so much that you could tell it was tongue in cheek at that point. By the end of the thread, very few people still believed anything John was saying and they just wrapped up the thread. So not everyone thought he had any more experience with MDPV than could be gained from reading stuff on Erowid and talking to a few legitimate chemists about reactions. Also, there were only a few pictures of the Tan that he took and posted and they look like some rusty dirt on the bottom of the trays. Not much to go on with those pictures.

    It was embarrassing but representative of what CNN and the rest of the mainstream US press has become.

    There are many questionable – perhaps even “bonkers” – elements to John’s evolving story but massive corruption, drug running, and bribery among Belizean authorities are not among them. It would not be “bonkers” to fear corrupt cops in Chicago or New Orleans or New York City much less in a third world pirate haven like Belize.

    Half way down on the left, the second video appears to be new as well with shots of the dogs.

    It is pretty clear Mr. Savidge has made up his mind about the conclusion to be drawn from the facts, although he is reserving stating it.

    On a side note, does anyone else find his demeanor extremely snarky? Don’t know the man well enough to say myself other than his coverage of McAfee.

    Connie – your loyalty is admirable but misplaced and you are naive.

    The consensus at BL was not that Stuffmonger was a troll – it was that he was confused about his “discovery” of the secret of “Tan” MDPV. Everyone there agreed then and now that the author of the “Stuffmonger” posts most certainly was extremely personally experienced with MDPV. There is great debate among underground drug experts about whether “Tan” MDPV was a different drug than MDPV, but most people on the quest for the “Tan” all these years agree that “Stuffmonger” was basically serious – just also psychotic on MDPV like everyone else who uses it steadily. There is no way John’s ‘prank’ cover story fooled anyone familiar with the plot….

    I thought it was pretty odd for him to go to so much trouble for a hoax as well. But the chemical he was posting about is confirmed to be a myth/urban legend in and of itself, and wasn’t even started by him. There’s no evidence anywhere that this stuff ever existed or that his formulas could even possibly work. Experts have said that such a thing doesn’t exist and isn’t possible to make using his methods. While he had to know a lot about it to even post these things in the first place, I have serious doubts that he was attempting to make them. He had a legit lab, he was interested in antiseptics and supposedly sexual enhancers, depending on whose story you believe. It makes sense somewhat that he would know about chemistry and even have researched some of these chemicals if he was indeed looking for some type of “female viagra,” since part of the myth is that this stuff is the most potent aphrodisiac ever. The “Stuffmonger Tan” he posted about would be similar to me going on a Christian fanatic website and posting that I had found the holy grail or the ark of the covenant and submitting photos, descriptions, and history of where and how I supposedly found them. Experts would know I was full of shit, yet fanatics would be intrigued. and I would be laughing my ass off. All of these things are myths, including the “tan.” There is absolutely no evidence that any of them ever existed. Regardless of whether he was actually researching these chemicals or not isn’t even the point though. The whole issue now is the murder, of which I feel he is innocent.

    You can read the same thing on the MDPV thread on this blog. Copied exactly from the bluelight post. Here is what the final post from the thread’s moderator said about what John (stuffmonger) had posted on the blue light thread:

    08-03-2011 13:19
    “This thread is over 1k posts so it’s off to the archive, it’s either bullshit or synthesis (the chemical is claimed to be a seperate substance not just a base/different salt) but it has been an entertaining and confusing wild ride. Unless there’s any actual breakthrough etc I don’t deem it worthy of a new thread so PV discussion can continue in the megathread, back to business as usual.”

    Barring the possibility that the unidentified caller was using one of Mr. McAfee’s phones, the call was probably either a domestic call from the US or a GOB (Govt. of Belize) hoax. International calls from Belize are very expensive and your average Belizean is reluctant to make them, assuming they know how. Also, there is, if I recall, some difficulty in making an international call from a prepaid cellphone.

    Dan, you’re exactly right. None of that story makes any sense. The time required to gain enough knowledge to fake those pictures is enough for rational people to understand that the bluelight postings were not a hoax but rather the attempt of a drug-sick mind to seek help in perfecting the ideal party drug he imagined he’d discovered.
    And Connie, the problem isn’t that he’s not perfect and therefore a murderer. The problem is that he’s an admitted liar who continues to be caught in obvious lies that he refuses to own up to, so he has trashed his own credibility.

    Unlikely. There are just too many ways to slip into Mexico from Belize undetected. If Mr. McAfee does indeed have the experience he claims from the days when he was a smuggler, it is almost inconceivable that he would be apprehended in that way. But perhaps his success thus far may have fostered a bit of hubris and he slipped up. It would be a sad day if it is true.

  367. Sproggit
    December 1, 2012 at 8:03 pm

    WEB,

    I believe this is likely to be false.

    According to the official reports, Mr Faull was shot with a 9mm pistol at relatively close range.

    Mr McAfee has explained that he was the one that shot his own dogs, as he was forced to do after they were poisoned. In the post where he explained this he said that he used a shotgun and another firearm- a pistol, I believe – both of which he had ownership papers and licenses for.

    If all the evidence is as provided, then there is no way that Mr Faull could have been shot with the same weapon as Mr McAfee’s pets.

    Who is reporting this? Chad? I hope “captured” is an overstatement – I know that John has been “of interest” to the authorities but I’m confused about his fugitive status. I’d love it I some informed person reading this would give us a brief primer on Belizean law (to the extent that it is being followed in this case) – to my understanding, Mr. McAfee is not a suspect but is merely “of interest.” Has the ballistics study (if there was one) been released by the authorities? I know these comments/questions may seem naive but I’m sure that any real international legal assistance that he may receive at this point is going to be contingent on the answers, the real factual answers, to these questions.
