Gringo: The Dangerous Life of John McAfee Page #4

of the company."

I remember I just started,

um, a very calm conversation,

and he went from...

zero to crazy

in, like, two seconds.

Zero to crazy

in, like, two seconds.

He called me

all kinds of names

and pushed me

through the door

of his Orange Walk compound.

I locked myself

in the lab,

and I thought,

"He's dangerous."

I started destroying

all the samples.

And, um, you know,

any of the reagents

that he could have used

against someone.

And, um

And, um

I emailed my dad.

I had just about,

maybe, ten minutes

to do this.

I emailed my dad,

and, um,

bought a plane ticket home.

And as soon as I, like,

hit send on that email,

he cut the power.

He cut the email

and he cut the power.

He was pounding on the door.

Mad, screaming,

just screaming.

And he left.

And he got a gun.

And he came back.

I was hiding

beneath the benches.

I'd made some friends

by that point.

And I texted my friends.

And I said,

"Guys, you gotta come get me."

Like, and he could have

broken in.

He didn't.

I don't know if he went

back in the house

or what happened.

But my friends came

to get me.

But my friends came

to get me.

And they escorted me out.

And hid me

at a relative's house.

And, uh, took me to the plane

the next morning.

When I first got home,

I contacted the FBI

about what had happened to me

in Belize.

Unfortunately, they have

Unfortunately, they have

no jurisdiction in Belize.

Um, so nothing could be done.

I'm mad at myself

for not realizing

who he was sooner.

'Cause he's dangerous.

One morning,

John McAfee called me.

And he said,

"I need to chastise this guy.

And he said,

"I need to chastise this guy.

To teach him

a little respect."

So John asked me

if I could bring

three guys up here.

Three bad, meanass

looking guys.

To slap him up a little

and tell him,

"Be careful."

So I did.

Where did you

find them?

In a place called

George Street

in Belize City.

They were very much a part of

the bad boys of George Street.

They were paid

3 grand, U. S.

I brought them up

to Orange Walk.

They knew what

they needed to do.

I left them here.

I recall seeing

a police officer

at the roadway,

right at the barrier

where the tollbooth is.

Then John said,

"Oh, he's on our side.

He's on our team."

So did they beat him

up when they caught him?

He told me he wanted

to talk to the guy personally.

I suggested to him

that that's not a good idea.

He said, "No, I just want

to talk to him."

I think he wanted

to make his point, like,

"Don't f*** with me."

"Don't f*** with me."

Somehow they led him up

to the vehicle

and put him inside the vehicle

to talk to John

for about four

or five minutes.

Then John drove off.

David was taken

to the hospital.

Policedid they talk to him?

Yeah.

So why

didn't he tell them?

David Middleton is still

clinging to life

at the Karl Heusner

Memorial Hospital.

He is still under coma.

He is still under coma.

Before he slipped

into a coma,

Middleton told police

that he had been abducted,

beaten, and stabbed by two men

who came to his house

in Orange Walk.

He says he did not know

either of the men,

who drove

a white pickup truck.

He died on Friday

at the KHMH,

and it is now

a murder investigation.

And then he died.

I said, "Oh, f***."

I had a vehicle

fit the description

I had a vehicle

fit the description

of the one they said

this guy was picked up in.

So II got nervous, really.

I was just waiting around

to see if an investigation's

gonna happen,

if somebody's gonna

show up at my door

and want me

for questioning or something,

you know?

I didn't sign up for that.

That's not what

I had in mind at all.

I reached out

to David Middleton's family

and they provided me

with pictures,

but they decided

not to be on camera.

But they decided

not to be on camera.

They were afraid that it would

put their lives in danger.

They told me that

when they tried to find out

what happened to David,

they were warned to stop

asking questions

and to leave the country.

They called him MAC10

because when he pissed off,

what's what he use, a MAC10.

Speaking Spanish

speaking Spanish

I hear one was looking

for the other to kill him,

and the other was looking for

the other to kill him, and

But I also remember

John told me

that people who was

his enemies,

who's out there

trying to harm him,

he goes and hires them.

Like, keep your enemy

as close as you can.

From that time, you know,

I started working for him.

From that time, you know,

I started working for him.

John's desire

to live without limits

was extending into

every part of his life.

Pensive music

pensive music

I live a lifestyle

which might be

over the line

of normal behavior.

It's a lot of fun.

I get to hang out

with cute girls

who are scantily clad.

I do have teenage girlfriends.

And many at a time.

Nothing illegal.

They're well beyond

the age of consent.

And I'veI see

nothing wrong with it,

and if you do,

then that's okay.

How many girlfriends

did he have?

Ooh.

Ooh.

I can't keep count, um

I would say at least

five or six girls, you know,

that live in at the house.

He was Belize's

Donald Trump.

This dog here,

I got him from John.

Dreamy music

dreamy music

Majority of John's

girlfriends,

I was the one introduced John

with the girlfriends.

Paz is who

introduced me to John.

He'd tell me,

"Oh, there's a guy

He'd tell me,

"Oh, there's a guy

who's paying

a lot of money

just to sleep with him

one night."

So I said,

"Well, okay."

I used to get $900 per day.

Yeah, John used to

pay me good.

I needed the money, too,

at that time,

'cause I had my baby girl.

So I had to

buy things for her.

And thank God my little girl

is growing up.

I used to drive around

in a vehicle

that John would offer me,

finding girls.

Probably I introduced

3540 girls.

Yeah.

I was 18

when I met him.

I fell out of school

because of

the financial problems

of my parents.

That's why I went to his house

and asked for a job

and I started working.

He started giving me,

like, presents

a few days after we started

dating then.

He treat me good,

so I started liking him.

These were young women

who had very challenging

life situations.

They have horror stories

of what happened in their past.

So he didn't need to say,

"Well, I'm going to pay them

into prostitution."

No, it wasn't that.

It was simply,

here's a rich guy

who is just willing

to take them in.

Um, one morning,

Um, one morning,

I was sleeping

in the bedroom

and my stepfather came

and touched my private parts.

I went to tell my mom,

my mom just cried.

So I got fed up with it

'cause she never believes.

So I went, then he said,

"Get out of the house."

So I packed my bag

and I went.

I had to stop school.

And that's when I got

to John McAfee.

Then he gave me money

to go to school.

Then after that

he start calling me,

Then after that

he start calling me,
