Autopsy set for Madoff associate dead in Fla. pool
On 12:17 pm EDT, Monday October 26, 2009
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — An autopsy is planned for a man accused of making more than $7 billion off the investment schemes of jailed financial manager Bernard Madoff.
Jeffry Picower was found by his wife Sunday at the bottom of a pool at the couple’s sprawling oceanside Palm Beach mansion. He died a short time later at a nearby hospital.
The 67-year-old was No. 371 on the Forbes 400 list of the wealthiest Americans, with a net worth of $1 billion.
Police are investigating the death as a drowning, but haven’t ruled anything out. Palm Beach County authorities planned an autopsy Monday.
