YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

"American technology pioneer John McAfee said he faked a heart attack while detained in Guatemala to buy time for his attorney to file a series of appeals that ultimately prevented his deportation to Belize, hastening the government's decision to send him back to the United States.

After weeks on the run and days in immigration detention, McAfee arrived in Miami on Wednesday.

He said Belize authorities in April 2011 accused him of running a methamphetamine lab, before the November 11 killing of his neighbor, American businessman Gregory Faull, and have since persecuted him."*

John McAfee is back in the U.S., despite being wanted for questioning in Belize. He's happy to back to "safety" in the United States, despite leaving the country to avoid paying taxes on his $100 million fortune. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break down McAfee's seemingly strange behavior.
