Reportedly he was found dead from suicide in the Spanish prison cell.
McAfee had been in jail in Spain since Oct. 6 for alleged tax evasion and failure to disclose income charges at Barcelona airport.
McAfee faced charges of concealing significant assets on his tax returns for several years, including real estate and a yacht.
