It's being reported he died of a suicide, questions are coming up from out TF'ers wondering if he may have died by some other more nefarious means. Would we not be told the truth is in question?

Remember 5 yrs ago today what we were told about how Pat Tillman died... The answer is no one here may know how this 41 yr old died, but to completely go gospel on what is being reported has precedence for being inaccurate, wildly at times.

Gotta think this will be very negative for morale at the GSE's, not that they were well off in that department now anyway.

I don't like to see this. Sad for his family and also likely means skeletons in the closet far and wide.

Yes very sad. The feds will be all over it I guess... so it might help those skeletons come out. But still a bad way to come about it.

This is the best banker I've read about in the last 2 years - certainly the most honorable, since he apparently did the right thing.

I cannot feel empathy for anyone who has been involved in the industries that stole the savings of Americans, and committed fraud on a worldwide scale.

I hope many more follow in his footsteps.

Yes this is a massive blow to the family, they will never understand and always blame themselves. As much compassion as one may want to muster up for the deceased, this is ultimately a terribly selfish act that will scar his loved ones for life.

If it does turn out to be suicide then I'm leaning to personal over professional.

Not sure if this was mentioned but cnn says, "David Kellermann's death "may have been an apparent suicide," said Lucy Caldwell, a spokeswoman for police in Fairfax County, Virginia."

http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/04/22/kellerm....

Notice how it says, "may have been"?

There is another criminal working under him, the guy who was deeply involved in the accounting shenanigan of 2002. A short stodgy Jew, Fishbein, Fishman, Fish-something. Chinese noted him with interest.

On to pure speculation. I think the deceased was tipped off as to what is in progress. More speculation. All the perceived fraud is likely going to be proven to be a conspiracy. Probably rising to RICO level. Serious investigations take time before the bombshell is dropped on the media.


He didn't need to be "tipped off" because he was intimately involved in both the underlying fraud and the SEC criminal investigations.

But I concur that the scope and magnitude of these frauds implicates RICO on a massive scale, and 2009-2010 will likely witness record levels of RICO suits.
