What a sorry, cowardly prick. Kill yourself in your home where your wife can find you? Or maybe his five year-old daughter found him? :???:

Freddie Mac acting CFO found dead-police

Wed Apr 22, 2009 8:35am EDT

WASHINGTON, April 22 (Reuters) - David Kellermann, acting chief financial officer of mortgage giant Freddie Mac, was found dead on Wednesday in his suburban Virginia home, a Fairfax County police spokeswoman said.

Police were called at 4:48 a.m. EDT (8:48 GMT) to Reston, Virginia, spokeswoman Lucy Caldwell told Reuters.

Local media reported that Kellermann's wife called in an apparent suicide, but Caldwell did not elaborate on the cause of death.

The incident is "under investigation," she said.

According to Freddie Mac's website, Kellermann, 41, was with Freddie Mac for more than 16 years and named acting CFO in September.

Freddie Mac and rival mortgage finance company Fannie Mae were taken over by the U.S. government last year as mounting losses on housing investments weakened their balance sheets and played a role in the U.S. housing and global credit crisis. (Reporting by Walden Siew, editing by Vicki Allen)

Yeah, it does make you wonder. It makes me wonder why he did it now? It looks like the worst of it should have been over for him as far as negative publicity goes. Is there something else coming?

Dodd is having a hard time collecting campaign money and Barney is getting hit by those that know of his involvements. Rahm made a chunk out of the deals and Franklin Raines is lurking somewhere in the background.

I hope some more comes out of this. Hell, there are still dummies like OT that are still putting all the blame on Bush. :mad: :lol: :roll:

So Bush was blameless/powerless as President to do anything?? C'mon Mike, you know better than that, at the least, he is part to blame.

If you would read and comprehend..........I said above, "putting ALL the blame on Bush". :roll:

I DO KNOW that Bush warned Congress at least 19 times of a potential problem, while at the same time he touted home ownership was at an all time high. Your guys brushed off any potential problems as nonsense.

Comprehende?

Oh, I understand and I also understand OT's point of view-- The Buck Stops Here . Bush could have gone on national tv and talked to the american people but he didn't, he could have threatened to veto anything until the problem was fixed, he didn't. IMO he was just as much a part of the problem as any of the crooks in Congress (both Dem's and Rep.'s). And also the only single man that could have solved the problem through his influence before it escalated to the point it did. If he had done either of those things (veto or garnering public support) a Republican would probably be in the Whitehouse right now.

Coincidental deaths with this Presidential term are starting to accumulate.

1) Gay member of his church, when allegations of gay relations surface.

2) Witness in Passport fraud, when his State department docs are tampered with

3) And now this

(I wonder why would he commit suicide after proclaiming he wanted to
help see his company through it's difficulties?)


By MATTHEW BARAKAT and ALAN ZIBEL, Associated Press Writers Matthew Barakat And Alan Zibel, Associated Press Writers – 17 mins ago

VIENNA, Va. – Freddie Mac's acting chief financial officer had met with the mortgage giant's human resources office and had been making plans to take time off only a day before authorities found him dead in an apparent suicide, a person close to the company said Thursday.

A human resources official met with David Kellermann on Tuesday and told him he needed a break because he had been working hard, said the person, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the individual wasn't authorized to discuss the matter publicly.

Kellermann, 41, of Vienna, was found dead Wednesday in the basement of his home. A law enforcement official also speaking on condition of anonymity told The Associated Press that Kellermann hanged himself. He asked not to be identified because the investigation was ongoing.

Kellermann worked for the company for 16 years and was promoted last September when the government seized the mortgage company and ousted its top two executives. He oversaw a staff of about 500 at Freddie Mac's McLean headquarters and was working on the company's first-quarter financial report, due by the end of May.

Co-workers were not the only ones who had noticed the strain placed on Kellermann by his job duties. Several neighbors said Kellermann had lost weight in recent months, and some had even advised him to quit, but Kellermann responded that he wanted to help the company through its difficulties.

The meeting with the human resources office was first reported Thursday on the Wall Street Journal's Web site.

Freddie Mac, which owns or guarantees about 13 million mortgages, has been criticized for financing risky loans that fueled the real estate bubble and are now defaulting at a record pace. The company lost more than $50 billion last year, and the Treasury Department has pumped in $45 billion to keep the company afloat. Last month, David Moffett, the government-appointed chief executive, resigned in frustration over strict oversight.

Medical examiners have completed Kellermann's autopsy but say a final determination on his cause of death could be weeks away.

Nancy Bull, the regional administrator for the medical examiner's office, said Thursday the final determination won't be made until all the lab results are received. But she said the preliminary findings are consistent with a suicide.
