John McAfee died a year ago, but his body remains in Spain

Cybersecurity pioneer’s daughter says "one of the longest years of my life" is due to what lawyer calls "an unfathomable delay" in Spanish courts

A year after John McAfee died in a prison cell in Barcelona, his body remains in a Spanish morgue.

“This has been one of the longest years of my life. I would not wish this journey on anyone,” Jen McAfee, John’s daughter, told MarketWatch in a message.

He was found dead in a Spanish prison cell on June 23, 2021, while awaiting extradition to the U.S. on federal charges of fraud, money laundering and tax evasion.
