Virginia police say they found David Kellermann, acting chief financial officer of mortgage company Freddie Mac, hanging in the basement of his Reston home, dead from an apparent suicide early this morning. (ABC News)The death was "an active investigation" and there were "no signs of foul play," Fairfax County police officer Sabrina Ruck said.

Local police said they were called to Kellermann's home at 4:48am.

Kellermann, 41, and a 16-year veteran of Freddie Mac, had been the company's CFO since September, after a government takeover of the company after the housing crisis.

Let me put it this way, the alternative was being dropped alive from a C-130 into the cold Atlantic. BTW, most of those dorks suicided during the dirty war were guilty as charged.

Another Freeper made this comment/reply (below) which is right as far as the cash amounts (I had misread these amounts when I posted the information). Why Kellermann was selling up to two weeks ago, when the stock sale increments were all less than a thousand dollars, I have no idea.

Other reply:
“Daaayum. Not a single transaction over $1k. How is a feller supposed to keep up the Neighborhood Association dues, let alone taxes or a mortgage in northern Alexandria on that kind of scratch? If he thought he was worth more dead than alive, he may have been correct.”

“Unless AIG was underwriting the whole life investments.”

Shouldn’t we consider banning Freddie Mac and rope now?

Just read another interesting article with comments on this death. According to Michael Olenick, there is a very interesting aspect to the foreclosure mess. He suggests that because so many mortgages were bundled and shipped all over, that a lot were probably not recorded properly. Therefore, quite a number of foreclosed people, actually might have the legal right to reclaim their lost property. See his two long comments and page 1 of the following link. Maybe you can get your house back!!

It seems they are aledging he committed suicide because he was overwrought with guilt for loosing billions of dollars and ruined retirements of people, etc. If that is the case did he write a complete exposition of what he did which comvicted him to proceed to kill himself? Did he name names of participants in the confindence game? Was he murdered for knowing what he knew? “The Pelican Briefs”??????

People, come on. Somebody broke into his house, grabbed him out of his bed, dragged him down to the basement, and the wife never woke up. Get a grip.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

You have no idea my FRiend.

None.

Unless you have knowledge or expertise in modern assassination, please do not sound off as if this could NOT be done.

If the Obama/Dem assasin cadre wants you dead, you will be, either by accident or by suicide.Your only defence would be to undestand how it IS done.

Look at the "suicide" case of former CIA Director William Colby. Look very, very closely.

Most people don’t write notes. You’d think they would but they don’t. The percentage that leave notes varies from 12% to 37%. The reason for the variance is the studies are all over the place. On average it looks like the average is on the lower end rather than toward the 37% side. Of course families who find the notes often destroy them to protect their loved one.

Just jumping in without reading the whole thread (or the other gunshot thread) - but I thought I heard earlier today on one on the channels that he had been found hanged - a suicide but unintentional. Did anyone else hear that?

When I heard that I thought sex stuff - where someone sort of chokes themselves for some kind of bizarre pleasure.

That would fit the description of unintentional hanging suicide - no?

I feel terrible for his family.

So do I. He was so young, and his little girl will have memories of him, but way too few.

Thanks for posting that link. The last paragraph is most interesting.

"Under that retention-bonus plan, Mr. Kellermann was due to receive $850,000. Of that amount, $170,000 was paid in December and the rest was to be paid in installments through early next year, assuming he remained at the company, according to a Freddie spokesman. One neighbor said a private security service recently had been protecting the Kellermann home, apparently because of concern over public reaction to the bonuses."

Who knows maybe things will begin happening at Goldman Sachs, Bank of America and Citibank.

How much tax funded bailout $$$$ has this crowd taken in 'bonuses'?

I never had a problem with the death of the communists. It was a civil war in the making and targeted killings is quite appropriate. Were Mussolini had done so rather than allowing communists to write books.

The problem with Mussolini is he was a socialist and in many ways identified with Gramsci. The fascists were lesser brutes than their german cousins. It did have a positive side. A far greater number of jews survived in Italian occupied Europe than otherwise would have happened. The fact he allowed people like Gramsci to write in prison is in hindsight a historical mistake we will pay for long into the future. If only history would work out as it should into a neat little package instead of the supreme mess that it is.

Methinks many very angry people want payback. Perhaps like an Elmore Leonard novel things get complicated. Unpredictable events happen along the way. Big shot bankers deserve what they get. ‘Nuff said here.

First: Kellermann has two “n”s

You need to do a news search, then sort by date. You’ll find the AP news stories that way.
