Acting head of Freddie Mac commits suicide
wtop.com ^ | 4/22/09 | staff

Posted on 04/22/2009 5:14:09 AM PDT by xtinct

The acting head of Freddie Mac, David Kellermann, has apparently committed suicide, Fairfax County Police tell WTOP. Fairfax County Police spokeswoman Mary Anne Jennings says Kellermann, 41, was found at his Hunter Mill Estates home Wednesday morning.

Jennings says police responded to the home after family members called police around 5 a.m.

"We were called from inside the house to come investigate an apparent suicide," Jennings says.

Because of legal ramifications, Jennings says she can't describe the nature of the suicide.

"We're not to give you details of the condition of the body, except to say it was an apparent suicide," Jennings says.

You make a good point.

Question - was there a suicide note?

Imho, I think anyone involved in this mess better take steps to document evidence and distribute asap.

We're finding out the toxic mortgages poisoning the global economy (that brought the US economy to its knees) were held by leeches with larceny on their minds, who never intended to payback banks. Here’s another subprime scam---God knows what the multiplier is.

JEST GOIN' OVER DA BORDER FOR A "BETTER LIFE." DUH.

Sap-happy community organizer Barack Obama and other braindead do-gooders sued to pressure banks into loaning to marginal people. Illegals were never asked for proofs---pay stubs, SS numbers, etc.

As long as they had a pulse and could write the names of one of their phony identities, they got a loan.

Many were scam artists----flipping the home back and forth among illegal immigrant families at higher and higher profits, duping banks at every turn. When they were done looting, the last "homeowner" defaulted and absconded to Mexico with $tens of thousands in cash.........leaving banks (and taxpayers) holding the bag.

Screwing banks and US taxpayers must get lotsa laughs over tequila shots in downtown Tiajuana.

suicide is a “permanent solution to a temporary problem”

My condolences to you for your losses. I have known many who have taken this solution. But please don't dismiss their problems as "temporary"...

That cliché diminishes the fact that people who succeed in suicide have gotten what they wanted, not what we left behind might selfishly want for them. Their pain--which must have been extreme, to go to such lengths--is gone now. Some have suffered for many years; some face no hope of ever reaching a "solution" other than this; and a dirty secret of medical science is that even in cases of clinical depression, 1 out of 5 can't be treated--their hell remains.

I hope his family members can see that and look more positively on his escape from suffering.

I hope Mr. Moffett has some protection.

So you’ve seen his insurance policies? ... The first two years after buying out a policy the suicide clause is invoke, but after two years suicide is not an eliminator of benefits.

Oh, I’m sorry to hear he had such a young child. It’s hard to fathom why someone would kill themselves if they had a small child.

Wasn't he in essentially (how be it smaller scale) than the chief accountant in the ENROR debacle?

If I remember correctly he shot himself as he stopped in the midst of an intersection as he was driving home IN Houston. (NEAR HIS HOME). THERE WERE NO WITNESSES. OOPPSS! sorry for the caps.

This was just before it began to be the story of the year.
