, a court document seen by Reuters showed on Friday, bringing to a close a probe about the death of the software entrepreneur.
McAfee, who launched the world’s first commercial anti-virus software in 1987, was found dead, aged 75, on June 23, 2021,after Spain’s high court authorized his extradition to the United States on tax evasion charges. The British-American tech mogul had been in the Barcelona-area Brians 2 jail for eight months following his arrest after years on the run from U.S. authorities.
Although the autopsy had already determined he died by suicide, his family had filed an appeal asking for a more in-depth investigation into his death.“There is not a single element of suspicion, of a charge against a third party, of criminal behavior,” said the ruling, dated July 24 but released on Friday.His family did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
