The lawyer for anti-virus software tycoon John McAfee – who was found dead in his Spanish jail cell on Wednesday while awaiting extradition to the United States – says he saw no indication the businessman wanted to kill himself.
Javier Villalba told Reuters on Thursday that he “had constant telephone contact” with McAfee and “at no point had he shown any special worry or clue that could let us think this could have happened.”
Villalba added that McAfee’s death was particularly painful “because it was not justified under any circumstance that this man remained in the jail.”
Honestly someone saying they wouldn't kill themselves doesn't mean much, minds change, circumstances change. Definitely worth investigating though.
