Quote from AK100:

Maybe he found something that he 'shouldn't have'.

Maybe that's the reason for his 'suicide'........

Common tactic for senior management in trouble. Get a naive, ambitious guy into the difficult position - then he can't get out of it.

Clinton rang up a suicide this way.

Condolences to the family.

I love how no bad news comes out for a month or so and with the market at its upper limits, we start getting rumors and bad news.

All I have to say is this is very odd. It's not like he was a fund manager and invited family and friends to invest in it and they lost tons of money.

Years ago here in TX, the head of the state's lottery commission was found murdered in his home near Austin.
No leads, no clues, nothing.
Never solved.
This "suicide" looks fishy too.

Prayers for the family.

actually... rumors are coming out that he was asked to step down by Obama... and wouldn't... and a presidential motorcade was seen fleeing from the house early this morning.

Welcome to the "New Policy". I'm guessing he was a very by-the-book CFO who refused Geithners "Mark to Whatever makes the mess look better" accounting policy.

GM's Wagoner was offered the same "out", but decided to forcibly resign.

In all seriousness... condolences to the family.
