John McAfee Launches Blog, Offers $25K Reward For "Real Killers"
An anonymous reader writes "The IT security pioneer John McAfee has launched a blog to document his life on the lam, as Belize police chase him down for suspicion of killing a neighbor. McAfee is using the blog to state his case, raise suspicions about Belize authorities and to offer a $25K reward to find the real killer or killers. From the article: 'McAfee writes that he is on run with a 20-year-old female named Sam, photos of whom are in the blog, along with a post from her. McAfee says a handful of friends and associates have been rounded up by police over the past week or so. His posts are filled with dramatic descriptions of his actions (including returning to his home in disguise to find police digging up his dead dogs and cutting off their heads) and lay bare his suspicions about Belize authorities.

There once was a man from Belize
Who neglected his bribery fees
Accused of a murder
He became a sheepherder
Fighting for refugees!
When the foot seeks the place of the head, the line is crossed. Know your place. Keep your place. Be a shoe.

Unless a person is being framed, an innocent person has no reason to flee law enforcement because they are suspected of a crime.
All running does is increase the perception that the person is guilty.

The trial would only last 30 days.
Man you talk to a lot of women. You must have a good job because that gets expensive at 2.99 a minute.
You cant be insane after the fact. hehehe.
Rich people are so entertaining. Perhaps if this happened more, where rich on rich crime and lunacy to follow, it would be worth paying more taxes.
I would be very surprised if he has more than a single million. His program was trash and it took up sheet-tons of CPU. It couldn't even protect from the common cold.

I think it is a delicious irony that McAfee claims he may be the victim of a false-positive identification.
Former anti-virus mogul... running from corrupt 3rd-world foot-soldiers through the jungle with a girl half his age?
I think Dos-Equis just found their new pitch-man. "I don't always run from corrupt Central-American governments, but when I do, I prefer Dos Equis..."
Yes.
Greetings from Argentina.
I'm guessing that his craziness is going to start ticking off the gang leaders he claims to have recruited. Gangs know how to deal with a rabid dog.

This here's a story about John McAffe and Sam
Two mismatched lovers with nothin' better to do
Than sit around the house, live off John's savings, and watch the tube
And here is what happened when they decided to cut loose
They headed down to, ooh, old Belize
That's where they ran into a great big hassle
John shot a man while robbing his castle
Sam took the money and run
Go on take the money and run
Go on take the money and run...

How you can list terrible IBM software and NOT mention Lotus Notes is, frankly, shocking.
It sounded well rehearsed
Four days on the run and he was dying of thirst
The brew was in my hand and he was on my tip
His voice was hoarse, his throat was dry, he asked me for a sip
"My name is McAfee, I got a license to kill
I think you know what time it is, it's time to get ill
Now what do we have here? An outlaw and his beer?
I run this land, you understand? I made myself clear"
