January 19, 2008 -- MARLTON, NJ - A high-ranking executive of a collapsed subprime-mortgage lender jumped to his death from the Delaware Memorial Bridge yesterday, shortly after his wife's body was found inside their Burlington County home, authorities said. The deaths of Walter Buczynski, 59, and his wife, Marci, 37 - the parents of two boys - were being investigated as a murder-suicide, according to the Burlington County Prosecutor's Office. Prosecutor Robert Bernardi said Evesham Township police went to the couple's home in the Marlton section of the township at around noon after a male caller asked them to check on Marci. About 20 minutes after her body was found, officers from the Delaware River and Bay Authority Police Department received reports that a man - later identified as Walter Buczynski - had parked his car on the bridge and jumped from the span. Walter Buczynski was vice president of Columbia, Md.-based Fieldstone Mortgage, a high-flying subprime-mortgage lender that made $5.5 billion in mortgage loans and employed about 1,000 people as late as 2006. It has since filed for bankruptcy and now employs less than 20.

Yeah but the amounts have been owed for over 10 years. He's known since 2002 and didn't get filed on until 2006. He had plenty of time to cut a deal.
