SAN PEDRO, Belize — Software company founder John McAfee says he's wearing a disguise and hiding in plain sight, watching police and reporters stake out his home and blogging about it.

Seldom has there been more media coverage of someone on the lam since O.J. Simpson led police on a low-speed chase in 1994.

Police in Belize describe McAfee as a "person of interest" in the slaying of fellow American Gregory Viant Faull.

Faull was shot to death in early November on the Caribbean island where both men lived.

McAfee said this week on his blog that he has donned a disguise and watched as police searched his house and reporters gathered.

He says he has blackened his face and teeth, wears a serape and has posed as a vendor of wood carvings.
