[TheSun] Fugitive anti-virus guru John McAfee, 73, arrested with cache of firearms in the Dominican Republic while fleeing rape and murder allegations.
 CYBER-SECURITY pioneer John McAfee has been arrested for taking weapons and ammunition into the Dominican Republic.
The British-born software mogul, 73, was arrested with his crew after he docked his yacht, the Great Mystery, in Puerto Plata, on the Dominican Republic's northern coast. Cops in Belize are seeking him in connection with the slaying of an American neighbour, Gregory Faull, 52, in 2012. The gun-toting fugitive has been in hiding from the US Government, while avoiding officials in Belize - where he is a "person of interest" in a mysterious killing. 
And the tech guru is on the run from US tax authorities, who have indicted him for tax evasion.
The Dominican's Public Ministry said it seized the weapons - several high caliber guns - money and ammunition found on the yacht.
It appears his days on the run might be coming to end, however, as a report in Dominican Today said that he'll be given to American officials.
McAfee posted photos of himself in a cell, after his second arrest in the Dominican Republic 
Incidentally, McAfee had offered posturedclaimed to share some unimaginably dirty dirt on some very high players recently. After which Interpol and US Treasury Dept began hunting for him. Maybe these are the last pics of him we'll see. He added a lot to the anti-malware industry it seems, but the bugs he just couldn't get rid of were evidently in his own head. |
