John McAfee detained in Guatemala

John McAfee, the software designer turned homicide suspect, says he fled to Guatemala, where he has been arrested, to escape persecution in Belize. His attorney in Guatemala told ABC News McAfee, 67, was arrested by immigration police on charges of entering the country illegally. McAfee before his arrest told ABC Guatemala is a place with "some sanity." He said Guatemalans believe him when he says police in Belize are trying to kill him. "Instead of going, 'You're crazy,' they go, 'Yeah, of course they are,'" he said. "It's like, finally, I understand people who understand the system here." Greg Faull, who moved to Guatemala from Florida, was found dead in his beachfront house in Belize shortly after McAfee's dogs were poisoned. Faull had led a neighborhood petition drive against the dogs, describing them as a dangerous nuisance. Telesforo Guerra, a former Guatemalan attorney general representing McAfee, said his client will continue to seek asylum. "You don't have to believe what the police say," Guerra said. "Even though they say he is not a suspect they were trying to capture him."
