On June 23, shortly after have been approved for extradition back to the United States on charges of tax-evasion and fraud, John McAfee was found dead in a Spanish jail. Authorities in Spain claimed the infamous antivirus software entrepreneur had died as a result of suicide by hanging.

Immediately following his suspicious death, McAfee’s wife Janice claimed on social media that the United States wanted her husband to “die in prison.”

“John’s honesty has often gotten him in trouble with corrupt governments and corrupt government officials because of his outspoken nature and his refusal to be extorted, intimidated or silenced,” Janice wrote.

“Now the US authorities are determined to have John die in prison to make an example of him for speaking out against the corruption within their government agencies,” she added.

On the same day that he died, a mysterious image of the letter Q was posted on McAfee’s Instagram account and shortly after that post was made McAfee’s Instagram account was closed without explanation. None has been given since.

This week, McAfee’s wife Janice once again made claims of a conspiracy against her husband by posting what is alleged to have been his suicide note – a note she believes is fake.

“Here is the alleged suicide note found in John’s pocket. This note does not sound anything like someone who has no hope and is contemplating ending their life. This note sounds like one of John’s tweets,” Janice tweeted.

Among the many scribbles on the note a few sentences could be read, including, “I am a phantom parasite” and “I want to control my future, which does not exist.”

Janice McAfee followed that tweet up with another one questioning the note’s authenticity.

“The handwriting is suspect & I doubt the authenticity of the note. It reads more like someone trying to imitate John’s style of tweeting. And if this note was found in his pocket where are the markings of the note being folded into his pocket?” Janice tweeted.

Prior to the release of John McAfee’s alleged suicide note, Janice had also expressed dissatisfaction with how Spanish authorities were handling the circumstances surrounding his death.

“Some have asked if I have been able to see John’s body,” Janice tweeted. “Well the answer to this is yes and no. I was able to view John’s head through a window at the facility where they are keeping him. His entire body from the neck down was covered with a sheet & blanket.”

Janice also wrote on Twitter, “There has been no sense of urgency from the various Spanish authorities involved in investigation into John’s death and there is clearly a cover up happening here concerning the events surrounding his death.”

How John McAfee ended up in this situation is the stuff of movies – one that apparently will star Zac Efron as the late tech mogul.
