When computer anti-virus mogul John McAfee was wanted for questioning over the murder of Gregory Faull in Belize, he went on the run and invited VICE editor-in-chief Rocco Castoro. Alongside conflict photojournalist Robert King, Castoro documented McAfee’s white-knuckle escape from Belize into Guatemala. But their story has remained untold, killed by VICE's top brass days before publication. Ten years in the making, this podcast drags you through the heat of the jungle and inside the paranoid web of McAfee’s twisted reality. It tells the long-censored true story of what happened before Netflix’s Running With the Devil: The Wild World of John McAfee drops on August 24.

Featuring unheard audio, Rocco Castoro illustrates his first day documenting McAfee's escape from Belize as the paranoid millionaire fugitive crafts elaborate distractions for the authorities to assist his escape. Ten years later, Rocco re-connects with the man who set him on his bizarre excursion, Francois Garcia, perhaps the world’s foremost authority on this chapter of the antivirus mogul’s life. Like Rocco, Garcia’s long-gestating project on McAfee has been killed by powerful forces time and time again.
