Vice Magazine reporters are indeed with me in Guatemala.
Yesterday was chaotic due to the accidental release of my

handicap. I had to cancel numerous interviews with the
press yesterday because of this and I apologize to all of
those affected.I'd call it resourceful. To have my location leaked like that and have the forethought to engage in that much subterfuge while physically fleeing?
