James S. McDonald, president and chief executive of investment management firm Rockefeller & Co., has died of an apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound, Massachusetts authorities said Tuesday.

McDonald, 56, was found in his vehicle at about 3 p.m. Sunday behind a car dealership in Dartmouth, about 50 miles south of Boston, said Gregg Miliote, a spokesman for the Bristol district attorney's office.

There was no note, but McDonald "made a phone call to his wife earlier in the day," Miliote said Tuesday, without getting into specifics of the call. The death is still under investigation.

He was probably “suicided”, like Vince Foster and James Forrestal.

I wonder if there is something else that is going to come out. Maybe a Madoff. That would be something is a large portion of the Rockefeller fortune were suddenly wiped out.

hmmmm...I wonder if any of George Soro’s commie foundations or groups had any ‘investments’ with Rockefeller?

Perhaps he knew too much and had a sudden moment of guilt and remorse.
