The McAfee dogs are safe

The Attorney General Office has kept the weapons that were seized from The Great Mystery yacht in which John McAfee, his wife, and others docked in a private marina in Puerto Plata On Monday, 22 July 2019. When McAfee and his wife were deported to England on the next Thursday, the three dogs that came with them on the yacht were left behind. McAfee threatened the Dominican government to destroy the local tourism industry if anything happened to his dogs.

Later his wife would tweet: “Dogs are safe! They were taken to the farm of a French resident in the Dominican Republic. In the picture here are Tequila, Marley, Axel. The duchess does not appear in the photo, but I was assured that she is there with the other dogs. Thanks to our lawyer Carlos Olivares for making this happen.”

It is now known that Tequila, Marley and Axel, the three dogs that came with McAfee, are under the care of a veterinarian that McAfee himself authorized.

McAfee had complained that the dogs were left locked in the yacht for over 60 hours, without food, water or air conditioning.

His defense attorney Candido Simón reported that the dogs were safe and well cared for.
